We recently installed blinds on the front door for a little privacy and to help cut down on the amount of sunlight that pours into the living room in the evenings. We thought reducing the amount of sunlight that enters the house during the summer would help lessen the load on our friend the AC.
But we couldn't just put up blinds on the window because I could just imagine how quickly the pugs would tear them right off the door. So, we got shades that are enclosed in glass and hook right onto the door, which means the pugs can scratch at the door and won't be messing with the blinds.
One major drawback, is that having the shades closed limits the pugs view. Which is perfectly fine with me because a limited view means limited barking, but I'm not so sure how well it is going to go over with the pugs. So far they seem to be fine.
But, since the amount of sunlight pouring into the house is greatly reduced they do have to chase the sun a bit more. Before a huge rectangle of sun poured through the door. Now they just get little patches that jump around depending on the angle of the sun. But, don't worry, little Luna seems to have gotten the hang of things already.

Things have been pretty quiet here in the OBP house. Walks are still limited because of the heat and humidity and we have been getting a lot of rain this week. Which, ultimately, is great because we can always use the rain. But, in terms of pug adventures things have been very humdrum around here. So, since we don't have any interesting stories to tell, I told the pugs they needed to dial up the cuteness until I dream up something fun for us to do and share with all the OBPers out there.
Have a great weekend everyone and don't forget about the 2011 Calendar Contest.

Luna is far smaller than the boys, but it rarely shows in pictures. However, the other day, I caught her sandwiched between the boys and her small stature really comes through.
But, just because she is little, don't think that the boys push her around. Here is a shot of her pushing her way through the pack, telling the boys to step aside, Looney is coming through.

Benny better be on his best behavior. Luna has Benny's precious puffy. Muahaha!

When she plays, she plays hard. When she sleeps, she sleeps hard.
Instead of taking a picture, I really wish I would have taken a video because you should have heard her snoring.

The other day, a metal piece of Luna's harness that is used to adjust the straps broke and the only thing we had on hand was one of Solsey's old harnesses. Solsey wore this harness for about a week when she first came to us. After a week, we quickly realized that should could afford the next size up.
It is weird seeing Luna in yellow instead of pink. Every time I look at her I have to do a double take.

The boys spend their afternoon gazing out the door from the couch, but little Luna prefers a front row seat. Starting around 4:30ish during the week you can find Luna peering out the door. To be able to see anything happening out on the street, I think she pretty much has to be right up on the door. She wouldn't be able to see too much from the couch.
What always cracks me up is that she is just tall enough to peer out from a sitting posting. From the outside all you see is this little head peaking out at you.
I hope everyone enjoys the weekend!
