Four Pugs chased the lure into the AKC Fast CAT rankings in 2019, and Chesapeake Bay's Miss Buttercup blazed to the front at 20.95 mph — 100 yards in a flat 9.76 seconds, up from 19.33 mph the year before, clear of the field. Line the breeds up by their fastest dog and the Pug lands 185th out of 218. The top 4 averaged 17.7 mph — proof of how deep the Pug talent really runs.
