We are Going Down Down Down Down Down

This week's weigh In: 24.6. I am down .8 from last week.

Plus, the Mommy lost another pound. Down 6 total in two weeks.

We are on a mission for 2011.

Other than diet, we have been taking our walks.

Buster and I have made a pact to antagonize the cats as much as possible and have been doing a great job. The hoomans are not so happy about this pact but, Buster and I think it is great. Whenever one of us sees a cat on the floor they are free game to bark and chase and the cats go running like crazy (he he). I know we should be nice this time of year but, we just can't resist the chase - and those cats are soooo fun to chase.

Hope you are all getting ready for Santa paws!
Sure hope Buster and I don't get any coal maybe we should layoff until after the New Year - hmmm Nah!

Bad Bacon

Buster and I got in big troubles.
The Daddy was makin bacon.
We smelt the bacon.
We begged for the bacon.
He THREW us BACON (can you feel the excitement).


We fought over the bacon. We fought and got in big troubles with the Mommy :(

She did get over it but was not happy with us. We were like two puggies who lost their minds over that bacon. Beware of the Bacon!!!

BTW, The Mommy lost 5 lbs. Go Mommy!

Weigh In and Buster Update

Well, I got weighed last night. It was good but, all of the Turkey day damage is not gone yet.

This week weigh in: 25.4 lbs.

Down from last week (26 lbs.) but still not back to my weight loss of before the holiday.
The mommy gets weighed tomorrow so we will post on that another day.

Buster Update: He is doing good. Him and I play a lot. He is always in play mode and I have to remind him that pugs are suppose to rest during the day!!
He also snores like a freight train which has woken the mommy up a few times. We thought daddy was bad - no way - Buster Boy can snore with the best of them!!
Another thing about Buster is his tongue is bigger than his mouth and it always hangs out a tiny bit - the mommy says its cute - but I am not so sure.
Other than those few nit picky things, he is pretty nice to have around and the hoomans really like him too! Him and I are like bosom buddies and pretty much do everything together!

Well, Hope you are all getting your pawsents purchased for the howldays!

Getting Back On Track

Well with Buster's arrival and the Thanksgiving Holiday my diet went out the window.


Things are now settled down and I am getting back on track. I am going to pretend the last 2 weeks did not happen and start again today. My next weigh in will be in 1 week and I will see where I stand. The mommy is also starting a diet so I may report on her success as well.


Buster is doing great and is a perfect fit for our family. Him and I hang out all the time and play. The mommy says he has a lot of good habits that I should pick up. Not sure what she is talking about. (She says he walks nicer on the leash and that I pull too much.)


Although he does bark a lot at the cats which has Gabby having a heart attack. He is very friendly and I think just wants to play with them. He follows the mommy everywhere and likes to sit on her lap - so now we both do that.


I do think having a brother around is going to be great.

Adjusting

Hi Furends,

I am not sure where to start. Things have definitely changed in my house by having a brother around. At first, I was shocked to meet Buster and was not sure why he was in my yard.


I checked him out closely to see who he was and reported my findings to Jet who waited on the inside.



I had to double check my findings.

Then decided I would give him a go and race him around the yard.

When we went inside he started chewing on my bone.

I am starting to wonder if this is how things are going to be from now on.
I am not an only pug anymore. It takes a getting used to!

Buster's Arrival

The hoomans were up before the sun. They travelled an hour north to meet the transport. Seven other dogs new families were there waiting too. The transport was running late and everyone's excitement was growing. Finally, they could see the big truck coming up the road.
Amazing the dogs were stacked 3 high in that trailer. Buster was on the tippy top.


The dogs were barking all wondering if it was their time to get out. The workers took each dog out one by one and handed them off to their new families. My family went up when it was their turn and they handed them Buster. He was so cute - said the Mommy and the littles were so happy.


They came home and introduced me and Buster in the yard. We ran around a lot and sniffed each other.

I can see us becoming fast friends.


I will tell you about our first days together in the next post.

Buster is Coming - Buster is Coming

I have the most exciting news. Yep - This is my New Brother - Buster.

Buster is 2 years old - just like me :) and he is coming to live with me this Saturday. YIPPEE! He has a long way to travel to get here. He is starting his trip Thursday morning leaving his foster home in Arkansas and spending the night in Tennessee. Then he boards the transport with all the other rescue doggies and travels up the coast to Maryland, Pennsylvania and then to my state New Jersey. The transport will keep going to deliver all the other doggies all the way up to Massachusetts. I am glad he is getting off early because then I will have all day to play with him and show him around the house. We even got him a new bed, harness and some toys. We are so excited that he is coming to live with us and he will be my buddy for ever and ever.
I will let you all know how things are going after he gets here and tell you all about his exciting adventure (after he tells me of course).

Also, don't forget about the weigh in Friday November 19, 2010. Diet food and green beans. I sure hope Buster likes green beans.

Happy Birthday Ottis and Stuff

Hi Dawgies-
I have been getting my regular exercise and it feels great. The Mommy and I are on a regular schedule now of walking at least 2 times a day and for Halloween we walked for over an hour going from house to house. I have an appointment at the doctor tomorrow and can't wait to see what I weigh.
I want to wish my brother Ottis the cat a Happy 15th Birthday. He is an old man but still looks great.
I love this weather with the leaves all falling - but do beware - the Mommy found a tick on me the other day so those bad guys are still out there. The tick was all blown up too - it was really gross.
Make sure you keep up with your vaccinations so those bad boys don't get you sick!
I will let you know how my visit with the doctor goes. Paws crossed for good news!

Itsy Bitsy Spiders

The Mommy made 72 of these Spiders and would not let me even have a lick. I sat right under her nose the whole time and she never dropped one thing. These are all going to school with the littles tomorrow. I thought this Holiday was - Happy Halloween. Is not so happy right now.

Papers and Shaping Up

Hi Everydoggy,

I am not sure what is going to happen, but it looks like Molly may already have a home lined up so she won't be coming to live with us.

The mommy did fill out some papers and handed them into the rescue to see if there were any other puggys that wanted to be my sister/brother. Of course, they have to like littles and cats too so we are waiting to see what happens.


In the mean time, the mommy is trying to get me into shape. She started a walking regimen which is fine with me because I love walkies. We walk at least 2x per day and then I can run around the yard. Plus I get to go to the dog park on the weekends.

She cut my snacks and is really being super strict with my food. She wants me to weigh less when I go back to the doctor because she said every time I go I gain weight. I barked that I am a growing girl but she did not fall for it.

Hope you all have a Happy Halloween and I will be in touch again soon!

Paws Crossed - Big News

My Paws are crossed. The Mommy sent in an application to adopt a sister. I sure hope she can come and live with us. She likes bones just like me and is so pretty. Her name is Molly. We have not told the cats yet - thought it may be better to keep it our little secret.

Miss Molly - Wish us luck!

Don't Forget the Wrapper

Bloggin Buddies,
So sorry I have not been around lately. We are a busy group and sometimes never even get to turn this puter on anymore.
This has been a great summer so far. I have been swimming and BBQing and sleeping and playing. But dont get me wrong it has not been all treats and table scraps. I had to visit the vet a few weeks back because some bug got in my stomach. The mommy thought it crawled in when she got me a bone from the pet store that did not have a wrapper (never eat a bone that was not individually wrapped). That bug was just waiting for me to eat it up and it could get going in my tummy. I had to get some medicines to get that buggy out. I am all better now and feeling good again. I am looking forward to more funs and stuff. Here I am with one of the littles enjoying a bone that was wrapped up.

I hope you are all having a great summer too. Play lots, lick lots, sleep lots and loves lots! Talk to you again soon!

Happy Memorial Day - From Me and The Rock

Today is a beautiful day in NJ. I am glad to be home - I spent the last two nights at the resort and spa while my pawrents were away. They picked me up early last night after a super great bath and I am ready for a little family fun and BBQ.

I was checking out my yard last night to see if all was in order after my time away from home and I found a visitor. At first I thought he was a rock but when I went up to sniff him he moved and I took off running. I went back to take a second look with my dad and he said I found one of these:

The littles wanted to keep my rock friend but the mommy said no way. So they carried him outside to the woods and we went on with our fun.
About an hour later, that rock dude was back in my yard. I guess he heard us having so much fun but the dad was planning to mow the grass tomorrow and that could be disastrous for the rocky guy so, they carried him out even further into the woods.

I was out this morning to see if he came back but no lil rock man. I guess dad has the green flag to mow the grass.

The hoomans put on the heater last night so we are all planning to spend this glorious day celebrating our soldiers and the freedom they provide us all while lounging in the pool.

Yep - I am ready - last one in is a rotten rock guy (he he)!
Happy Memorial Day ALL!

Thanks and Doggie Day Care

Thank you every puggy and their mommy for all the great advice. My momma is going to try some alternate methods before surgery especially since I feel fine. She also has me eating a new food to help with my pugish figure.

And she made a reservation for me to go to doggie day care tomorrow so I can get some exercise during the day while she is at work. There are going to be lots of other dogs my size at day care to play with and should be loads of barking fun.

I will post all about my day this weekend. I am soooo excited. Have you ever been to day care before?
I would love to hear about your adventure.

Calling all Fur Mommas - Need some Advice

Calling all Fur Mommas

Calling all Fur Mommas



My Mom and I have a question.


I went to see the Doctor yesterday and he said I have a knee problem. Specifically, he said I have a luxating patella STAGE 3 (YIKES). Mom and I have been doing some research and it seems that my knee will eventually get worse and I will need a surgery. I am only 2 years old - WTF?????


We wanted to reach out to all you fur babies and see if you ever had this luxating patella or knew anybody who did and get some advice.


My mommy is not rushing into anything since it does not bother me but really wants to know if anyone has experience with this problem.


Thanks.

Rosie Marie

I was Pugnked

Last week the mommy brought me for my first professional grooming. I tried to tell you all about it but my computer would not load the pictures. Today it has decided to work. Here are some pictures of me after my professional bath.



Wait a minute - I did not put this on here - hey Jet!! Hey is he mocking me????

Maybe it was not the computer after all.
I have to think about this one.

Super Pugtastic Park Visit

The mommy took me to the dog park on this super beautiful day. I am a very social pug girl at the park and went to greet Everyone. All the greeting got me pug tired so, I rested under the table for a millisecond and then went off visiting again.


I was super duper excited when I saw this gal come into the park.
Her name is Missy and her and I got along really great. We had so much in common and hung around together. Missy was saved after her hoomans had to flee from the Katrina storm. She is very brave and was very nice too.

We had tons of fun running and sniffing around the park together. I sure would like to see Missy again at the park to play.
I am sooooo glad the weather is nice again and I can get outside.
Hope you all had a super pugtastic weekend like I did!
