Is this a good dryer for a pug? How long would it take to dry a pug in your suggestion time frame with this dryer?

:Pugs have short fur and it would not take any longer than 10-15 minutes to dry. Be careful not to aim the air towards the dogs face though because the force is powerful in this dryer even at the lower power.

I use mine to dry Irish Setters. I first use the blower only, no heat, to remove excess water; then low power and low heat to dry. Takes 10-15 minutes to dry their long coats. My guess would be to use low heat and low speed; and it would take the 10-15 minutes.

I have used the dryer on two daschund's and they dry in under 7 minutes. Your pug has a little thicker coat but I would say, still under 10 minutes for drying time.

It's very nice it probably would take 10 -20 minutes it drys my dogs so fast

If your pug is not scared of loud noises (it can be quite noisy and scary for a dog) my dog (a French bulldog loves the blow dryer and that's what we use to dry him) I got this dryer for our Persian (long haired) cat and whenever we use it on him my dog runs away... It takes about 15 mins or so to dry my cat pretty good

While the price is very appealing, I would suggest a Metro dryer. They have a very equal dry time. This dryer has bad wiring, no warranty, and it will die on you long long long before it should (and maybe shoot sparks and smoke at your pug!!). The Metro is about $150 and with sparse home use, should last you a decade or more. To fully dry a pug with this velocity dryer should take you about 15-20 minutes if the dog is fully cooperative.

I put mine in the dryer (washed before putting on the bed) and didn't have any problems with it. I made sure that it was on low heat and was only in there for about 25 minutes. It didn't need more time than that.

I use the high speed on a 76 lb Golden with a huge coat. It works well with him but Im afraid that it would blow a 17lb dog over! Just to strong on high, however, the low would be great for that size dog. Awesome dryer

Its not bad! The entire cleaning g and refilling process usually takes 10-15 minutes. I had 4 dogs and 2 cats using mine so i was changing it every 2 days or so. It didn't have much time to get slimy!

Hi, For an at home dryer, I am enjoying using it. Its like sitting in a beauty parlor, you can sit back an enjoy reading a book, while your hair dries. I would also say that it takes about the same amount of time.

It will dry It, However it will not dry it quickly , Probably 2 to 2 1/2 hrs. With that said I am Very Happy with my dryer but i mostly use it for lighter cloths and just hang up heavy blankets and towels on a nice day. Hope that helps. SEEMaybe even longer if this is a heavy blanket, This isn't a quick dryer, But sure beats going to the laundrymat

I think it would do good. I've always used a shop vac but this has a great suction & is so light & portable, I would definitely think it would be ideal. I use it for dog hair- lab to be specific- and have no complaints after 6 months.

I used this in my kennel for a 3 year old boston terrier and a 6 year old pug, they would run through the water maybe between 3-4 days.also, it does leak a little bit, so a small bowl or rag underneath the nozzle can help with that, leaks more at first and then settles into a small drip every now and then.

I don't have any personal experience with pugs but I would suggest the small/ medium trimmer. The large works great on our chocolate lab but would be too much for our smaller rat terrier mix. Good luck & if by chance you do cut too close baking soda or turmeric powder is suggested to stop bleeding :)

I believe pugs are short hair dogs and are small dogs. If it was my dog I would probably go for the small. I hope that helps good luck!!

I highly suggest it!! It's 20mins if you decide to use a heated hooded dryer. I keep mine in while I do house work.

Depends on his size. I bought it for my chihuahua. I have not used it yet, but I would think if the pug is a smaller one, you should be okay. Hope this helps.

I would not purchase this dryer again. Too long, not enough settings, tends to make my hair frizzy. Does dry fast. Hopes this helps.

What kind of dogs do you have? We have golden retriever and show dogs, is fairly quiet and does a good job but does take longer to blow them dry than our K9 dryer which is very powerful but takes lots of power electric to use

I am not sure if the term for this dryer is high velocity as I am just a novice pet owner and not a groomer. But I will say that it is the best thing since sliced bread. I have a Wheaton terrier and he is 39lbs, his natural hair is curly but we keep his hair straight. Prior to using this dryer I would just use the typical hair dryer and it took forever, now with this dryer the time is cut down to 20 minutes max and his hair comes out straight whether I brush it while drying or not. Obviously if you brush the hair as your dry, it will be straighter. I highly recommend this dryer. Hope this helps !

I would not waste my $.. I'm having problems w/ my dryer not heating sometimes.. Plus it don't have a strong fan that blows the air.. I previously had a larger Vidal Sasson dryer it lasted for years.. Not this one I'm totally dissatisfied.

You have my sympathies. The odor last from three days to about week. I put mine in the dryer on fluff for a few minutes. It helps but only thing to do is suffer and wait. I wouldn't try wasting it because they are so heavy it would take longer than a week to dry.
