Pug dogs have been a popular breed in movies for decades. They first appeared on the big screen in the 1930s.

Their adorable faces and playful personalities have captured the hearts of audiences worldwide. The first pug dog movie star was Fifi, a pug who appeared in the 1933 film "Polo".

The Secret Life

In the Secret Life of Pets, a beloved New York City dog named Max has his life turned upside down when his owners adopt an unruly mutt.

Max's friend Mel is a hyperactive, dopey pug voiced by Bobby Moynihan, who loves food and hates squirrels.

Mel is rather stumpy, with no neck, making him a lovable and memorable character in the movie.

Sarah's building doesn't allow dogs, making it a challenge for her to care for Patrick. She tries to find someone to watch him at short notice, but things don't go as planned.

Patrick is a charmer, despite his misbehavior, and he wins over the audience long before Sarah decides he's not so bad. He's a guy magnet, and Sarah finds herself juggling the attentions of a hot vet and a nice guy.

The supporting cast, including Edmondson's own mother, Jennifer Saunders, helps boost the movie beyond your standard romantic comedy. The film is far more charming than its current IMDb score of 5.8 indicates.

The movie is filled with humorous situations, such as Sarah chasing Patrick all over a dog park as he pursues a herd of deer.
