Caption This #26

Benjamin & Henry

For this week’s Caption This we are going back to May 2004.  We were still living in MD then and we attended a Pug Festival that was held at a local outdoor hockey rink (no ice, the players wore roller blades).  This was one of the best pug events that I have ever been to because it was great to be able to let the pugs off leash and not have to continually do the leash dance each time you meet a new pug or pug lover.

Being a hockey rink there were of course hockey goals there and I just could not resist setting Benjamin & Henry up as goal tenders.  This is one of my favorite pictures of the boys.  Not because it is such a fantastic photo, but because it just shows that the boys are good sports and put up with all the silly things I ask them to do.

Can’t wait to see your captions in the comments!

He Said, She Said

Henry & Luna poolside

Henry: Come on, Luna!  Let’s get in the pool.  The water is plenty warm.

Luna:  When I was looking for my forever home, I specifically requested a home just like this one, but with no big puddle in the back yard!  Can’t a girl catch a break!

Great Idea

Luna

DancesInGarden had a wonderful suggestion last week for the picture we posted of Luna in the new garden in the backyard.  She thought that with a little cropping on the photo would could get a great shot of Luna with the coneflower.  I agreed, so I took her advice and did some cropping on the photo.  I think it came out pretty well.  I just wish I hadn’t take the photo from inside the screen.  The photo would be much clearer.

Just to compare, here is the original shot before I cropped the picture.

We Interrupt Our Regularly Scheduled Broadcast

Cupid

I know this is the Pug Blog, but every once in awhile I can’t resist posting a few picture of Cupid, our kitty.  Cupid is 9 years old now and is a constant companion to me.  Every Monday - Friday she sprawls out on my desk and works with me the entire day.  She purrs, she kneads, she sheds and sometimes when I pet here she drools.  And on the weekends, she wants to know why I am such a slacker and I don’t work on Saturday & Sunday.

But don’t worry, she is still in the mix of everything on the weekends.  Each weekend morning, she helps us read the paper.

She is always in the mix.  On Labor Day weekend, we had a party and few people where trying to get in a game of pool.  Cupid would have none of it though, because the pool table is her second favorite place to sleep.  So we had a little fun with her and outlined her in the pool balls.  She loved the attention!

Caption This #25

Benjamin

Here is a shot of Baby Benny’s patented stare.  Benjamin only sits and looks so attentively when he wants something.  Looking forward to reading your captions in the comments!

Bloopers #1

Luna

No matter how hard we try to perfectly capture each moment to share on the blog, we inevitably come up with a few duds here and there.  This would most definitely be one of them.

Luna can be quite un-photogenic at times.  Especially when you scratch that little spot just above her right hip.  It makes her eyes go weird, her lip curl and her little snagletooth pop out.  How could you not love this little girl.

Dog Tags

Benjamin's Red Dingo Dog Tag

A few months ago, we got each of the pugs new Red Dingo Dog ID Tags.  When I first saw the tags, I was immediately drawn to them because of their unique designs.  They were eye catching and it didn’t hurt that you could mix and match designs and colors to your heart’s content.  There are 8 different designs and each design is available in 9 different colors and each tag is available in 3 different sizes.  So we had plenty of tag choices.

Red Dingo Dog Tags

We tried to choose tags for each of the pugs that expressed their personality.  Benjamin’s tag is the first picture up top and we choose the Happy Dog design for him because he’s just a happy go lucky kind of guy.

Henry's Red Dingo Dog Tag

Henry’s tag is a bone because he loves to chew anything.  It doesn’t matter what type of bone it is, he just loves to get a new bone and find a nice quiet spot to chew and chew until he tires himself out.

Luna's Red Dingo Dog Tag

Luna’s tag is a flower because she is such a sweet little girl that is very outgoing.  Also, I think a flower was fitting for her because she is continuing to bloom and flourish in her new home.

I like the tags because they are stylishly functional.  It lets the pugs look good while still having all their necessary contact info on them at all times.
