Pugs come in all colours and markings however some people view only pure breed pugs can come in 3 colours, that being Fawn, Black and Apricot. But that does not take into account that from those three colours, genetically, many other colours can be generated.
Here we show all the colours we are aware of, if you have others send a picture. To enlarge the photo, click on the photo once and it will go to the photo page, once on the photo page click on the photo again and it will enlarge to original size. Not all enlarge but most will.
The most common colours are fawn
Black
Apricot Fawn
The rare colours are silver (some even thought this colour a myth.)
Brindle (this is the colour that causes most controversy whether it is a pure breed pug or not – OF COURSEÂ it is)
White
And here is a video of a white pug called Marshmellow!
Albino
Chocolate

Wow – can you email a picture, we would love to put them up on our coloured pug web page. Evelyn@pugs.co.uk
What wonderful pictures. While doing a google search for pug puppies (we are looking for a friend for our pug Alfie) I found these great characters.
I am amazed by all the different colours! They are all absolutely gorgeous. We have two pugs, Titus and Isadora, both fawn, and both much loved!
The brindle intrigues me most, but a pug is a pug, whatever their colour, so, I love them all!!

Great names Titus and Isadora
Thank you! Both rescue pugs, Titus was originally ‘Derek’, which is my husbands name! And Isadora was ‘Shadow’. Allowed my husband to name them both as I was so desperate for a pug I would have let him name them anything!!
