Last weekend there was a little bit of a chill in the air in the early morning. Benjamin and Luna were snuggled up in their blanket while we played our early morning Scrabble game. Luckily, we had a nice mug of hot tea to keep us warm. Blankets in this house are pretty hard to come by. The pugs are always commandeering them.
Six. That is the number of dog beds that we took on vacation with us. Crazy. I know.
We filled the backseat legroom with dog beds and put a few beds on the backseat itself. That way the backseat was extended and very cozy for the long drive.
Once we arrived we spread the dog beds around the cabin, putting them in strategic locations where we thought the pugs would want to lay. But, wouldn't you know it, the pugs weren't that interested in the dog beds we brought. When relaxing, they preferred to use the human bed.
Luna has never been one for stairs and much to her chagrin the cabin we rented for our vacation had plenty of stairs. But, after the first day the little girl came up with a clever way to avoid the stairs.
Luna was quite fascinated by this little tree that she stumbled upon while we were on one of our morning walks.
She walked right up the rock, turned around and peed right on top of the little tree. Then she ran off to her brothers to tell them that she just peed on top of a tree. Top that boys!
I think the best part of the vacation by far was our morning hikes with the pugs. The weather was perfect! The pugs could run about and we did not have to worry about them overheating. And it wasn't too cold for us.
The terrain was way more rugged than our normal evening walks which are always on sidewalks. I think this got the pugs all excited because they really felt like they were on an adventure.
The mountain air and the fresh scenery really invigorated the pugs!
