Cute Little Pug Sky-Diving

Talk about impressive, this cute little pug looks like a totally eXtreme kind of guy. Being a pug I like well rounded personalities and well rounded heads too.





Until next time!

Summer Safety!

Hi All! Summer's here and I look forward to longer days and picnics, but there are some things you need to know to keep us safe and happy all summer long.
  1. NEVER, EVER keep us in a car when you aren't there. It can easily reach 150 degrees in the car and snub-nosed breeds like myself, bulldogs and boxers will succumb to the heat stroke quicker even than our longer muzzled cousins. We could easily die.
  2. Always provide fresh, clean water for us; I particularly like a bowl of ice or ice in my water dish on a hot summer day.
  3. Snub nosed breed (hey that's me again) should be walked early in the morning or in the evening. Those noses that make us so cute also make us prone to overheat.
  4. If I do overheat, soak me in cold water, wrap me in a cool wet towel and take me to the vet immediately.
  5. Make sure I have some shade if I'm outside, but honestly I'd rather be in the air conditioned house cuddling with you.
  6. Please watch me if there's water around. I may like to swim, but I'm not really good at it (some even say us pugs swim like rocks).
  7. Don't forgot my flea, tick & heart worm preventatives. Now you can get them all together in products like Advantix! Not only do fleas and ticks make me uncomfortable and infest your house, but a bad infestation could make me anemic or even require a blood transfusion to save my life.
  8. Remember while heart worm is treatable for dogs (unpleasant for me and expensive for you) it is fatal and untreatable for cats. I love my kitties and want them to be healthy too!


Follow these tips and we will have a fun summer together! Lets have a BBQ and share a hot dog (and maybe a potato chip or two?)!

Until next time!
Ciao!

Some Newer Pictures!

These are a few photos of me and mom and dad (mom's in the green, dad's in the blue) graduating from Intermediate training with my friends. I can't begin to tell you how much fun I have socializing with my friends and their two legged pets.

Till next time,
Ciao!
