The pugs did a great job with the fireworks last night. There were pops & booms go off all over the place and they just ignored them all. I think they even enjoyed the fireworks on TV 
I hope everyone had a safe and happy 4th!

This week's flashback: Let Freedom Ring - Quietly
A few people have asked me how Benjamin, Henry, Luna & Sol react to the fireworks. This is our first 4th of July with Sol so I can say for sure how she will do, but since she is completely deaf, I don't think the loud booms are going to get much of a reaction from her. The link to the post above pretty much sums up Benjamin, Henry & Luna's reaction to the fireworks.

Happy Fourth of July to all of those in the US and a belated Canada Day to our friends in the North!
Have a great weekend!

The pugs would like to welcome their new cousin Purrcival Magillicuddy into the family. Purrcy has a ton of kitten energy and is working on making friends with Ted the turtle - his older bro'. So far they are taking it one day at a time.

As much as the pugs come and go in and out of the yard during the day, we decided to get a doggie door that leads from the screened in part of the yard to the fenced part of the yard for the pugs so that I can can spend more time typing and less time opening and closing the door while I am working. Since I have a pretty clear view of the yard while working, I don't mind if the pugs come and go as they please because I can keep a very close eye on them.
So far the pugs have taken to the door very well. Occasionally they will forget about their new freedom to go in and out on their own and will scratch at the door, but they have been doing that less and less as the days go on.

Here's a shot of Henry not looking very enthused about the new door. "Yup, its a doggie door. Nothing to see here. Move along."

And here is a shot of Luna trotting right through the doggie door.
Where is Sol you ask? Well, Sol still prefers to use the door woman.
And please pardon all the dirt on the pool deck. As soon as the cement we poured to extend the step in the yard dried, the pugs couldn't wait to use the door. We didn't even have time to get the deck cleaned up.

Benny is as optimistic as ever. Looking forward to your captions in the comments.

The humans of the house had to return to work today, but the pugs carried on like it was still the weekend.
