Pug and Weimaraner are breeds of what?
dog
Weimaraner
The Weimaraner ( ) is a large dog that was originally bred for hunting in the early 19th century.
 Early Weimaraners were used by royalty for hunting large game such as boar, bear, and deer.
 As the popularity of large game hunting began to decline, Weimaraners were used for hunting smaller animals like fowl, rabbits, and foxes.
Pug
The Pug is a breed of dog with physically distinctive features of a wrinkly, short-muzzled face, and curled tail.
 The breed has a fine, glossy coat that comes in a variety of colours, most often fawn or black, and a compact square body with well-developed muscles.
Doug the Pug
Doug the Pug is a Pug living in Nashville, Tennessee who has gained a large internet and social media following.
 Born in Ohio, Doug made the move to Nashville as a puppy when his owner, Leslie Mosier, adopted him and brought him to his current home.
 He has a large following on social media and has reached the status of a "celebrity dog."
 He is the most followed Pug on the internet.
 Doug's Facebook page has over 5.9 million likes, his Instagram account has over 2.8 million followers and his Twitter account has over 1 million followers.
 He also has his own Vine, Spotify and YouTube accounts.
 Doug has made appearances with various celebrities and appeared at special events such as music festivals.
 Among these celebrity friends are Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber, Meghan Trainor, John Legend, and many more.
 He also appeared in Katy Perry's music video for "Swish Swish". Nation of Heat
Nation of Heat is Joe Pug's debut EP.
 Pug recorded Nation of Heat's seven songs at a Chicago studio his friend had snuck him into when other musicians had cancelled.
 He self-released the EP and began shipping sampler CDs with some of its songs free of charge to whoever asked for a sample of his music.
 This unorthodox promotional strategy led to Pug selling 20,000 copies of "Nation of Heat", piquing the attention of Lighting Rod Records, the Nashville label with which he would eventually sign.
 The EP was a critical success, drawing comparisons to the work of Bob Dylan and Josh Ritter.
 "Hymn #101," the album's opening song, drew special attention, being spotlighted on NPR's Second Stage music blog. In the Meantime (Joe Pug EP)
In the Meantime is Joe Pug's second EP.
 In 2010, while recording what would eventually become his "first full-length album", Pug released "In the Meantime" free of charge to subscribers of his email list.
 Pug stated that the EP was "a thank you of sorts to all the fans that have helped spread my music around to their friends and family over the last year."
 The EP consists of five previously-unreleased songs recorded during the sessions that produced Nation of Heat. Order of the Pug
The Mops-Orden, or Order of the Pug was a para-Masonic society founded by Roman Catholics.
 It is believed that it was founded in 1740 by Klemens August of Bavaria to bypass the papal bull "In eminenti apostolatus" of 1738.
 The constitution of the "Order of the Pug" allowed women to become members, as long as they were Catholic.
 The Pug was chosen as a symbol of loyalty, trustworthiness and steadiness. Frank the Pug
Frank the Pug is a fictional character from the movie "Men in Black", its sequel, its , and the video game "".
 Within the films, Frank has the appearance of a normal pug dog, but he is actually an extraterrestrial in disguise (a Remoolian).
 Frank is played in both movies by a trained pug named Mushu with Tim Blaney providing his voice in the first two movies and the video game.
 In The Series, the voice is provided by Eddie Barth. Cryoconservation of animal genetic resources
Cryoconservation of animal genetic resources is a strategy wherein samples of animal genetic materials are preserved cryogenically.
 Animal genetic resources, as defined by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, are "those animal species that are used, or may be used, for the production of food and agriculture, and the populations within each of them.
 These populations within each species can be classified as wild and feral populations, landraces and primary populations, standardised breeds, selected lines, varieties, strains and any conserved genetic material; all of which are currently categorized as Breeds."
 Genetic materials that are typically cryogenically preserved include sperm, oocytes, embryos and somatic cells.
 Cryogenic facilities are called gene banks and can vary greatly in size usually according to the economic resources available.
 They must be able to facilitate germplasm collection, processing, freezing, and long term storage, all in a hygienic and organized manner.
 Gene banks must maintain a precise database and make information and genetic resources accessible to properly facilitate cryoconservation.
 Cryoconservation is an "ex situ" conservation strategy that often coexists alongside "in situ" conservation to protect and preserve livestock genetics.
 Cryoconservation of livestock genetic resources is primarily done in order to preserve the genetics of populations of interest, such as indigenous breeds, also known as local or minor breeds.
 Material may be stored because individuals shared specific genes and phenotypes that may be of value or have potential value for researchers or breeders.
 Therefore, one of the main goals remains preserving the gene pool of local breeds that may be threatened.
 Indigenous livestock genetics are commonly threatened by factors such as globalization, modernization, changes in production systems, inappropriate introduction of major breeds, genetic drift, inbreeding, crossbreeding, climate change, natural disasters, disease, cultural changes, and urbanization.
 Indigenous livestock are critical to sustainable agricultural development and food security, due to their: adaptation to environment and endemic diseases, indispensable part in local production systems, social and cultural significance, and importance to local rural economies.
 The genetic resources of minor breeds have value to the local farmers, consumers of the products, private companies and investors interested in crossbreeding, breed associations, governments, those conducting research and development, and non-governmental organizations.
 Therefore, efforts have been made by national governments and non-governmental organizations, such as the Livestock Conservancy, to encourage conservation of livestock genetics through cryoconservation, as well as through other "ex situ" and "in situ" strategies.
 Cryogenic specimens of livestock genetic resources can be preserved and used for extended periods of time.
 This advantage makes cryoconservation beneficial particularly for threatened breeds who have low breed populations.
 Cryogenically preserved specimens can be used to revive breeds that are endangered or extinct, for breed improvement, crossbreeding, research and development.
 However, cryoconservation can be an expensive strategy and requires long term hygienic and economic commitment for germplasms to remain viable.
 Cryoconservation can also face unique challenges based on the species, as some species have a reduced survival rate of frozen germplasm. Live at Lincoln Hall
Live at Lincoln Hall is Joe Pug's first live album.
 The album was recorded at Lincoln Hall in Chicago.
 The album includes a guest appearance by Strand of Oaks, who were touring with Pug at the time of the recording.
 It is the first album by Pug to include a cover: "Deep Dark Wells," based on the song "Start Again" by Austin musician Harvey "Tex" Thomas Young. Pug Awards
The Pug Awards are a Toronto architecture award that rates buildings based on popular votes.
 Each spring the Pug Awards website lists all buildings completed the previous year in Toronto that have more than 50,000 feet of floor space.
 As of 2009, buildings outside the Old City of Toronto (including North York and Etobicoke) are eligible for awards.
 The awards were created in 2004 by Gary Berman and Anna Simone .
 They were originally named the "Fugly Awards" and highlighted the ugliest buildings completed, but the name was then softened to the Puglies, and finally to the Pugs, with a Pug dog as the mascot.
 In 2008 the awards introduced the "Pug Cup," which will be carved each year with the winning building and displayed at City Hall.
