His expression is like a 48 year old man going to the barber after being pressured by his family

“Not your typical pug for nail trimming” so he doesn’t act like someone is about to throw him in a fire while doused in gasoline.

“These pups are so spoiled. Back in my days, we had to clean ourselves in lakes during in the war.” -the pug

Elder Pug sounds like a boss in elden ring

As a vet tech, definitely not your average pug when it comes to nails. They SCREECH I tell you haha.

People who actually care about animals are so refreshing...

Seems like a patient little gentleman

They really called the dog "Weed"... I love pug owners

The way he leans in to everything and doesnt flinch is a testiment to how much he trusts the groomers

What a distinguished gentleman!

He looks so cute and he's also just so calm

I was shocked when she said “10”. He looks older than my 16 year old dog. Update: He passed two months ago at 17.

Oh he such a good boi

Imagine actually having a dog that lets you wash his face

He has such kind eyes

I love elderly dogs so much! They’re just as precious as puppies. Oh his face makes me wanna cry and cuddle him so badly. 🥺

“He likes to strut his stuff for us!” HE IS SO CUTE

When she said "He's a pug so he has all the issues" there hasn't been a more accurate description of that breed ever

old dogs are just incredibly cute.

He’s precious!!! My chi/pug screams when you clip her nails. I mean as soon as you touch her paw.

I love how there’s a perfect balance of “awww he’s such a cute and good boi” and “pugs shouldn’t exist”

Pugs when they get their claws clipped: *DEMONIC SCREAMING* This good boy: 💅

God my pug Charlie, I can’t find anyone to clip his nails. He’s 13 and stronger than an Ox. I have to wait until he goes in for teeth under anaesthesia. He will let me brush, bathe and clean his face and ears. Bud is a cutie 🥰

awwe he reminds me of my grandma's pug princess... she's gone now but was well taken care of into old age...she used her last moments to climb up on my grandma's bed and lay on her lap...I'm glad to see people taking care of pugs because they deserve care even if breeders don't agree

I mean this with all the respect I have Bud looks like the word “merp”

Oh his face got so smushed when he was being dried off! 😆

Finally, a pug I could love. He is adorable.

Aww what a well behaved boy he is, he knows he’s gonna be completely fine and safe so he’s just enjoying his makeover ❤

I've heard that some breeders are basically trying to breed the pug back to its pre-smooshed face days, so that it looks almost like a beagle. I hope they manage it, these poor things deserve better than these difficulties.

My family's pug was 18 years old when he passed. He was a good boi. I'm still shocked our dog has lived that long, let alone a pug.

Bud is an exceedingly dignified and well mannered haggis of a gent 👍🏻

He’s such a sweet boy ❤️

He's a cute grandpa, but I really feel bad for pugs... They're cutes but they suffer too much for everything they had to go through to become like this, there're people who even hate them for being so delicate which I just don't understand because it's not like they asked to be like that :(

bud the pug, that good stuff? I get what you are putting down.

So cute. I wish him many more years of happiness. Senior dogs are the best.

I remember a black little pug me and my Dad named “Licorice.” We saw him when we went on walks together, he loved to bark at us as we passed by. The people who owned him moved away, so I hope Licorice is at home, happy and healthy.

"He is 10 years old" Me: BABIE

He looked so good in that purple towel!

“ 🦛 my existence is suffering my purpose on this earth is to be someone else’s accessory”

Bud must be protected at ALL COSTS

A pug living to be so old is refreshing to see. It’s good his owners have been caring to him.

the phrase "because, well, he's a pug, so he's got all the issues" made me subscribe

My Zoey was a Jack Russell and pug mix… I took me a second to realize that u wasn’t looking at her. It’s been three years now since we’ve had to put her down. Miss you Zoey ❤😢❤ Liebe vom Deutschland

What a handsome gentleman I would love to have a dog like him

If he’s “elderly” at 10, My pug must be ancient as she just turned 15 on March 18th.

Side note for those that care: There is a breeding program to reverse the problems that most pugs/other pure bred dogs have with their issues with their breed in order for the breed to be more healthy in future generations.

How can so much love pack itself into such a lovely face?

What a good little old man 🥰🥰🥰🥰

I love how many if the dogs are visibly proud of their fresh new look.

Being a pug owner, this is the stage of their lives that I get sad. Because they most likely are now on a timer for how much longer they have before things start shutting down. I was hurt deeply at the age of 7 with one of my pugs passing away so it’s always been a sad time for me. Sorry for the long rant.

Look at that face, "I am well loved " is written here and there and there and there. I can still see the puppy in those eyes.

What a lovely little man.

He looks so healthy for being an older gentleman - good on those owners

Awwwww when she put the purple thing on his ears he looked like a wrinkly babushka

Sweet baby! I’ve had pugs most of my life & adore them!

He reminds me so much of my pug. She never put a paw wrong toward anyone, any dog, any cat, or anything. You could do anything with her and she was the simplest dog to train behaviorally I ever had.

What a cutie! He reminds me of my old pug. He lived for 16 years. Although, he was never as calm as this sweet doggo when it came to grooming. P.S. For anyone who's curious, my pug's name was Al Capone.

His little face while gettong blow-dried just melts my heart

Scared! Not sure what to expect? Be gentle and kind to me. maybe a treat later? Love and hugs to you brave boy. 🐕🐶🤭😇

He's so handsome! Love his little wrinkled face!

That is the cutest, baby faced, adorable, elderly dog I have ever seen in my 28 years of life 😭

His age is a testimony to the care he’s received. Getting a pug to a ripe happy age is hard work, because everything about the breed just… doesn’t want to exist. (We all know why.) But it’s clear his owners did a great job caring for him. **Necessary Update:** To all the replies saying "Not all pugs are bred badly", the breed is, by default, a deformed dog. There is no such thing as a "healthy bred pug" unless it has been cross-bred with a breed that counteracts the short snout (and spine and hips and legs, while you're at it.). Pure-bred pugs are deformed, and that's that. "But I know pugs who live a happy healthy life", that's great! The percentage of pugs in need of medical assistance to breathe is still unacceptably high. Just because it's not happening to *you* doesn't mean it's not happening. Also, this is NOT a jab at people who own pugs, I'm sure you love your animal to bits, you want the best for them, and pugs are known to be friendly by nature. I'm sure you love them and they love you back. This is a critique on breeding them, this is *not* a critique on owning and caring for them. I just see too many people in the comments in complete denial of the problem because they refuse to admit there's something wrong with their beloved dog's background. It's OK, you can love your dog, you can be a good owner to your dog, but don't turn a blind eye on the problem. Admitting something is wrong and loving your dog to bits is not mutually exclusive. Please, just make sure you keep yourself educated and get dogs from shelters rather than breeders. Adopt, don't shop! (This goes for any dog, actually. There are a lot of perfectly fine and lovable dogs in need of a home.)

He is loving life! Nothing more precious than older pugs. ❤

What a sweetheart of a pug!

He is a million miles of adorable. He looks like an absolute little sweetheart

I genuinely feel bad for pugs. They suffer from so many ailments just because we humans wanted a cute dog. Edit: Apparently there are a lot of people who hate pugs(I know this much from replies), let me clarify I am not one of them. I like all dogs and also pugs. Further, I am not trying to hate on any pug owner and don't want to make them feel guilty in any way. I know they love and care for their dogs and that their pugs live a happy life with them. My point was just that a pug can't comprehendd that the life that they are living is much far from natural. This is true for human life and other domesticated species too. But atleast humans have some control (or atleast the illusion of it) over their own life. They are not bred specifically for small heads which are too small for their brain or for an inefficient respiratory system. Furthermore I also understand that other breeds too have deformities. But the deviation from the natural order for breeds like pug and chihuahua is just too much. And sadly the more the deviation from natural order, the more external support they require.

I just love older dogs, they are so cute. ❤️

Bud! He is so damn precious!

You can tell they have a 10 year bond, he looks so calm and assertive throughout the whole groom. She did an awesome job, I love his old man look he gives.

So he expects to live after the nail clipping? He sure does not act like a Pug. His parents must have treated him very well and loved him so much. He looks like a happy boy.

“Bud, that good stuff if you know what I mean” as I’m lighting a joint 😂😂😂💨

Bud is OFF THE CHARTS adorable!!!❤

He’s like a little old man strutting around after getting a new haircut

My 15 year old pug just passed away but it’s good to see another distinguished gentleman such as bud, it makes some of the pain lessen 😞

He looks so happy

Wow he is such a good boy

I’m so glad this was 18 hours ago and not 5 years ago 😭

i heard that there was a breeder thats trying to breed pugs to have less of their body issues. i hope they succeed, i hate seeing these guys with their almost non existent noses and too small for their large body legs

“… he is 10 years old, and I’ve been grooming him ever since I’ve opened my business…” one of my favorite quotes lmao

Such a gentleman.

his face is so cute, you can feel his wise oldness come through 😆😭

Humans: oh what a cute dog, look at his squinched face Pugs: _kill meee_

What a beautiful little feller.

He makes everyone happy❤🥰🐶

I miss read the title and read “Elderly Pug is a Groomer” and legit thought oh not youtube drama again

Bud the pug. He's also shaped like a nug!

Looking at him gives me memories of my Passed away dog Gaston

I had a sweet old pug that lived to be 13 that looks just like this one. Loved that pup with all my heart.

I can hear him struggling to breathe from here

Awe Bud is such an adorable old boy that sucks that his ears get infected easily though,but I’m glad he has a wonderful groomer and pawrents.

I had a dog named Bud he was a beagle. He also had ear issues. He was a great friend from 4th grade till I was in my twenty's.

Thumbs up to the old pug. Hang in there big guy. Hope you enjoy many more happy years.

How is no one talking about the fact that this is literally Edgar I looked back on this comment today on 3/2/22 and now I’m realizing: bruh I just got pewds stonks and now have 2.3k likes on a comment about Edgar

“He’s named after that good stuff, if you know what I mean” I think the good stuff was named after him, he’s so cute!

i have a pug, she is so kind. i love her

Awe his a little angel

I will never get another pug again. I used to have a pug, and she was such a beloved pet. But I feel bad that their anatomy causes them discomfort, and now I opt for dogs that have a real snout to breathe easily through, no face folds to clean, and just healthier more naturally athletic bodies. Pugs are so sweet, I just regret contributing to the market for over-bred dogs. IMO pugs are never fully "healthy".

I love how a lot of dog breeds grow white beards as they age, like us humans. He’s such an adorable pug.

Happy to see that he has a normal tail, not a stubble like most pugs!! He is so adorable, I love senior dogs, so sweet !

His smushed up little face in the Happy Hoodie is so precious!!
