That's really not a great picture. If it is, then it is not very adorable.
It is very important to wait for the right moment for a good shot, or else
do something (such as with a treat or other distraction) to make it so.

I do believe the point was that puggles are not adorable when they
reach adulthood like they are in the puppy stage when they are prime
for selling. Since neither of us took the picture, giving us advice
on how to properly take pictures of a dog is of no relevance.

I have seen quite a few poorly taken photos posted on petfinder and other
sites, and I think it is a disservice to the dog. I don't claim to be a
pro, but I've taken some good photos, and know how to do basic editing to
make them attractive. Maybe I need to see a picture of an adult puggle to
understand the point.

As I don't have any puggles to take pictures of to your exacting
photography standards, I can not help you out here. If you go to
http://images.google.com and search for puggle you will surely find
many pictures of puggles as puppies, which tend to be very cute. If
you keep looking through it though, you will find adult puggles as
well, which can be cute, but tend to be kind of ugly. I of course
can't complain about ugly dogs, as my mutt has a face that only I
would love, but as many puggle pups are bought on the line of "aren't
they cute", it's a shame they don't typically turn out that way, at
least in my eyes.

I didn't see any that looked all that ugly to me, even the older ones. But
then, I think bulldogs and boxers are kinda ugly. But true ugliness goes
much deeper than external appearances. And hopefully it is rare.

Well, just an observation, but this is where multiple sources of
information comes in handy. You post one link to a website dedicated
to dog BREEDS, but yet they list mixed-breed puggles as a HYBRID
breed, which they are not. They are a mixed-breed. Magically all the
adult dogs and puppies on this website share a similar desired
appearance for a puggle breeding, but anyone who has the slightest
understanding of genetics (my understanding is only slight) will know
that when you mix two dog breeds you will not get a separate breed
that breeds true to the same appearance, but most likely a mix of both
breeds appearances and characteristics. And the particular mix you
get in each puppy or breeding is not going to be the same. So I call
the credibility of your link into question as it appears to promote
the designer mutt breeders' line that their "breeds" breed true.

Nick, You got the point. It seems paul failed to.

One of the local rescues has an adult puggle. It falls into the ugly
group as well. I just hope he landed into rescue for reasons other
than ugliness. I can handle people giving up dogs to shelters because
they shouldn't have gotten the dog in the first place, I don't like
it, but I can accept it. But if someone got rid of a designer mutt
because it ended up ugly instead of the cute dog the breeder promised
them... I just don't know what I would say to them. Sadly, I could
see this happening in the world we live in now.
