Putty in His Paw

This is why Benjamin pretty much gets whatever he wants.  I just can’t resist that wrinkly face!

Ain’t No Sunshine

There has been very little sunshine the last few days here on the east coast of FL.  Without sunbeams to bask in, the pugs have been a little down in the dumps.

Yesterday, Benjamin had to bury himself in the couch because he couldn’t stand the thought of having to make another pee pee in the rain!

And Henry & Luna have turned to each for support to get through these gloomy days.

Here’s hoping for some sunshine for Benny, Henry & Luna who are missing it dearly.

I Feel Pretty

Benny is always perched atop the back of the sofa and from time to time I catch him checking himself out in the mirror that hangs on the wall behind the sofa.  The boy knows he’s cute and I guess every once and again he likes to make sure his fur is not must and that he wrinkles look just right.  In the picture, above, is Benny’s reflection and is what he sees as he gazes at himself in the mirror.

Silly Ben

Ben has a thing for scratching and flipping pillows around.  He can clear the sofa of all throw pillows in a matter of seconds and once he does he just rolls around on the couch all proud of himself.  It’s not just the throw pillows either.  If it is fluffy and not attached he will do his best to fling it somewhere.  I’m trying to get a picture of this, but sometimes when he scratches, his front paws move so fast that he has to prop himself up on his head.  It is the funniest thing.  He is supporting himself with his head and his little paws are going 90 mph.  He is an odd guy.

You Dirty Duck

I must confess the boys & Luna have way too many plush toys.  They have a little over two toy bins full of various plush toys, but one of them is always playing (or should I say dismembering) with one of them.  They do have their favorites, though, and they seem to drag those toys everywhere.  They nap with them, take them in the yard and sometimes Benny will even try to convince you to let him take his puffy on a walk with him.  With the amount of action that these toys get they can get pretty filthy.  So this weekend was bath time for all the plush toys.  We did two loads of plush toys and a few more loads for their dog bedding and pillows.  The toys all cleaned up very nicely and the dog beds smell very nice.  So now the boys & Luna are on a mission to dirty everything back up again!

All about Ben

The tiny Mimosa tree that we planted in the backyard appears to be doubling in size everyday.  Since it has grown so much since my last update, when I caught Henry sitting next to it the other day I quickly snapped a picture and knew it would be perfect for the next Mimo update.  Benny, however, got a little jealous and promptly came over to water the Mimo.  It seems he doesn’t like the Mimo stealing his blogging limelight.

When I fussed at Benjamin for being such a cranky old man, he gave me a look that said, “What? You don’t think this little tree is getting so big from water and sunlight alone, do you?  It’s all because of Benny’s specially formulated Miracle Grow!”
