The four pictures below were taken in a 2 second span while Benjamin and Henry were chasing each other on the beach. After, I pulled the pictures off my camera, I couldn't help but laugh.
Nothing unusual going on here. Henry caught up to Benny and is showing him a little brotherly love.
Benjamin, quickly turns the tables on Henry and swings around and is doing his best to pounce on Henry.
But, Henry swings his hips wide and from the looks of the sand it looks like Benny is hitting the brakes.
And the next photo in the series is the one above. I have no idea how the boys ended up like this. Apparently, Benjamin zigged when he should have zagged. And the look on Henry's face with his ears flipped up is priceless. I'm not sure what he is doing with his paw either.
A lot can go on in 2 seconds.

Saturday was gorgeous pug weather and we decided to spend the day at the beach. A lot of other people thought Saturday was a great beach day too because the beach was very crowded. There were people, dogs & kids everywhere.
We walked along the beach for a while before we found a spot to setup camp. We setup the blankets and within a few minutes the pugs had sand all over the blankets. Just they way they like them! But, you can't expect to go to the beach and not get sandy. Especially, when you have 3 pugs in tow.
A lot of dogs stopped to say hello as they passed our camp on the beach. To my surprise, I even managed to catch a dog playing fetch in the background of Benny's picture.
Henry was in need of a pair of shades because he was squinting in every picture I snapped of him.
The pugs did a lot of running around before they were finally ready to settle and take in the sights from their blankets. We were even lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the DirectTV blimp passing in front of the lighthouse.

A walk at the City Center falls under the "Somewhere Fun Walk" category in our data tracking experiment. I love going to the City Center and the pugs really enjoy it as well. There is a nice path that meanders around a lake that is a half mile long. When we go, we usually try to get a mile in with the pugs, which would be just two simple laps around the lake, but Henry refuses to walk around the lake twice. He will actually sit down and refuse to take another step. Not because he is too tired and can't walk, but because he has a rule that he will not walk at the same place twice on one walk. Been there smelled that, is his motto. So to extend the walk we have take a couple side routes. And Henry loves the side routes, because there is nothing he loves more than getting off the beaten path and exploring.

Benjamin experienced a first a few weeks ago. He found a cat that actually likes him.
It is no secret that Benjamin is the lowest pug on Cupid's totem pole. And every other cat he has come across has promptly greeted him with a bap on the head.
So when Simba, a cat that lives in our neighborhood that is allowed to go outside, and Benny crossed paths, Benny was bracing himself for the worst, but was presently surprised when Simba rubbed up against him and promptly flopped on his back. (Yup, that is Benny in the pink collar below. He was borrowing it from his sister that day).
And ever since their first meeting, Simba generally comes over to see the pugs when they go out for their evening walk. We will be walking along and he will come darting over to say hi to the pugs. After a minute or two of prancing around the pugs he is off for other adventures.

Since the weather was so nice this weekend the pugs got to go on lots of errands with us. They love to run errands, especially ones that involve picking up lunch

We went to the dog beach last Friday and the pugs were super excited to be at the beach again. Fall is perfect beach weather for the pugs and as soon as their paws hit the sand they were off to the races. Luna was particularly excited and ran a few extra laps.
With the better weather, we have been walking more and able to take the pugs for more car rides. They are very excited to be out and about again.

The weather here has been gorgeous, so we thought we would take the pugs and G-Ma to the beach. I tried to get a shot of the pugs with the lighthouse in the background. As you can see, some pugs were more cooperative than others.
