The Anatomy of the Chase

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.

Benjamin and Henry

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.

Beach Day

Luna

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.

Benjamin

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

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.

Mr. Bean

Benjamin

Benjamin's 9th birthday is sneaking up on him and so is the gray. I think it makes him look more distinguished. He thinks it makes him look like he needs a treat.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Problem Sleepers

Henry and Luna

The pugs are allowed to sleep with us at night, which is generally fine, but two of the pugs are serious bed hogs. We try to encourage the pugs to sleep in the same direction that we do (parallel to us), but Henry & Luna prefer to sleep perpendicular to us.

When we go to bed, things start out OK, but as the night goes on Henry & Luna switch into perpendicular sleeping mode and the next thing you know we are hanging off the side of the bed and the pugs have all sorts of open space in the middle of the bed.

You can switch the pugs back into parallel mode, but after a few hours they are right back into perpendicular sleeping mode and we are clinging to the bed again.

How a little pug can push you out of the bed is beyond me but they manage to do it every night.

I Take That Back

Benjamin and Henry

In our house, if you unscrew the lid of the peanut butter jar, 3 pugs will magically appear at your feet. They love, love, love peanut butter and while we give them a kong stuffed with peanut butter from time to time, they certainly don't get one every time someone removes the lid to the peanut butter.

The other night, I opened the peanut butter and the pugs were instantly looking up at me, pleading for a kong. I was in a bit of a rush, so I didn't really have time to dig the kongs out and stuff each one with peanut butter. So, I took a paper plate, cut it into 3 pieces and put a clump of peanut butter on the plates and let the pugs have at it.

At first they were chasing the peanut butter plates all over the place and then Henry had the bright idea to stand on his plate so it would stop moving. I remarked that Henry is the only smart one in the bunch and we laughed as Benjamin & Luna were getting their fair share of exercise while Henry was standing still and gobbling up his peanut butter.

A few minutes later we look over and see that Henry has finished his peanut butter and is now eating his paper plate. Yup, so much for Henry being the smart one of the bunch.
