We have a wall in our “play” room that we call our picture wall. On the wall is an 8x10 of each one of the pets. We try to update the wall with new pictures every few months, but we have fallen pretty far behind lately. So far behind actually, that the last update was pre-Luna so, the little girl didn’t even have her picture up on the wall.
So, this week, we finally got around to updating the wall. The first photo is a good overview, but her is each individual shot.
When we take the pugs out in the yard, we let Cupid come with us. She loves to eat the grass and chase the bugs.
Benny loves to mug for the camera. His is so handsome and he knows it!
Henry is the silliest. There is something about the grass and the sun that just makes him want to roll around.
And last but not least, little Luna. She is such a sweetheart.

This blurry photo is of little Luna 2 seconds after we feed her. Once we put Luna’s food down she dives right in. And when she dives in, she inevitably spills bits and pieces of her meal all over here placemat. She doesn’t let this slow her down, though. She continues to scarf down what is in her bowl and then she circles around her bowl gobbling up any pieces that were flung onto the floor.
Luna’s messy eating habits drive Benjamin crazy! You may not know this, but, Benjamin is food obsessed. So to have stray pieces of food flying around while he is trying to eat is a huge distraction for Benny. Before Luna came along, Benjamin & Henry had a pact. If the food was in their bowl, the other would not touch it. However, if a scrap were to fall on the floor, it was every pug for himself and may the fastest pug win. So when Luna slings her food all over the floor, Benjamin feels as though that food is now fair game. So, he of course, leaves his bowl, knowing that no one will dare touch it, and tries to eat all of Luna’s scraps. If this was just a piece here or there it would not be a problem. But Luna routinely dumps half of here dinner onto the floor every night. So we have to fuss at Benny for scooping up all of Luna’s kibble or Luna would miss out on half her dinner every night. Whenever we fuss at him, Benjamin gives us a confused look like, “What? Its on the floor! It’s fair game!”
We have also tried to get Luna to slow down and take her time when she eats, but we haven’t had much luck. I guess we are going to have to try bigger dog bowls. Although, the dog bowls are just a formality to her. I think she would prefer it if we just dumped her food on the floor. It is pretty much what she does at every meal.

What do you mean it is time to make the bed?

Luna still gets a tad excited when chow time rolls around. As soon as her bowl hits the floor, she dives right in and every night, after her bowl has been licked clean, she comes running up to you, wagging her tail, with a face like this. Who could resist?

Luna has a stuffed monkey that is as big as she is that she loves to shake and drag around the house. Instead of a squeaker the monkey has what we refer to as a “screecher” inside it. Occasionally, while tossing the monkey about, Luna will make the monkey screech. Luna hates it when she makes the monkey screech! She immediately stops playing with it and usually runs away. It’s funny, but sorta sad. It is like she feels like she hurt the monkey by playing too rough.
We actually have a little video of Luna playing with the monkey and then running away. Check it out. This is the first video on the Pug Blog so bear with us. We are definitely amateur videographers.

During the day, while I am at home working, the pugs are generally pretty mellow. They spend most of their time sunning themselves and catching up on their sleep. Most of the action doesn’t really happen until I get off work, so they make sure they get all the rest they need during the day so they will have plenty of energy for their walk in the evening.
They have a lot of favorite sleeping spots around the house, but one of their favorites is definitely the sofa. The most coveted spot is the arm of the sofa. From this position, they can see right out the front door. They love this spot because it allows the pug to catch a cat nap and still be able to spot any passersby. Because barking at those who walk by the house is definitely one of their favorite pastimes.
