For awhile Solsey, the pillow thief, always took my pillow at night even though she had one of her own right next to mine. My pillow clearly states "RIN" on it so I wasn't sure why there was any doubt about which pillow was hers. To straighten things out, I got a pillowcase that said "PUG" so the pugs would never be confused as to which pillow was theirs. However, since I got the pillowcase, Solsey has stopped sleeping on pillows during the night. With her cough she prefers to lay on harder surfaces. She now sleeps at the foot of the bed. However, Ben, Henry & Luna have made good use of the pug pillow.

While out shopping with G-Ma when she & G-Pa were visiting, we found this cute little ballerina shirt on clearance at an outlet store. I immediately thought of Luna and for the bargain price couldn't resist getting it for her.

Looking forward to your captions in the comments.

Last week Luna went in for her eye checkup. It had been almost a year since her last visit and up until about two weeks ago her eyes were doing great. The last two weeks we noticed that her tear production in her right eye was pretty much nonexistent. When she went in for her checkup, the tear test confirmed what we already knew when it registered a zero for tear production in her right eye. On a good note, the tear production in her left eye was outstanding.
That is pretty much how the visit went. All good news for her left eye, all bad news for her right eye. The one good thing, although this isn't really a good thing, is that she has so much scar tissue built up on her right eye, that it being dry does not cause her much discomfort.
Even though she is not in much discomfort, we switched up her drop schedule for her right eye to see if we can get her back to the point of producing tears. We added two new medicines and completely changed up the schedule for her right eye. Her left eye drop schedule remains the same. Needless to say, I had to create a new spreadsheet to keep it all straight.
We go back in a month to see if the new drops are doing any good.
Luna took it all in stride. I think her biggest gripe is that she got stuck with the cat room again. As you can see, all the pictures in her exam room were of cats. She much prefers the dog room

Last night it got down around freezing and the pugs were hesitant to go out unless they had a good reason. Benny & Sol went out to go potty and usually Henry would tag along just for the fun of it, but he decided to watch them from a nice warm spot inside. Can't say that I blame him.

This week's flashback: Luna vs The Monkey
Apparently this is the first video posted to OBP. Who knew? I love it when I re-read a post and it jogs my memory. Since I started doing the flashbacks, I have read a few posts and had completely forgotten about the event. It's nice to reminisce.

This is pretty much how the pugs rang in the new year last night. I guess they wanted to make sure they were well rested for 2010.
So far we are off to a rainy start here in Central Florida. I was hoping to get in a nice walk with the pugs today, but it doesn't look like the weather is going to cooperate. And after it stops raining it is going to be quite chilly here. But, curling up with the pugs on the couch and listening to the rain doesn't sound like a bad idea either.
I hope you had a fun and safe New Year celebration. Happy New Year!
