To determine which sentences should be included in the summary of the paragraph, we need to focus on the key points and main ideas that encapsulate the essence of the paragraph about pugs.

Based on the provided options, the following sentences are relevant for inclusion in the summary:

1. **Pugs are a lot of dog in a little body.**
2. **Pugs are loved by many people around the world.**
3. **Pugs have a round head, sparkling eyes, and a wrinkled brow.**
4. **The pug's motto is "a lot in a little."**
5. **Pugs were once the companions of emperors.**

If we consider summarizing, it might be beneficial to include all of them since they each provide distinct and informative points about pugs that could contribute to a well-rounded summary. However, if space is limited and you need to condense the information further, the first two sentences—"Pugs are a lot of dog in a little body" and "Pugs are loved by many people around the world"—could be critical to convey the main idea.

Ultimately, the appropriate choices depend on the focus of the summary and the context of the original paragraph.
