Barking at the TV

Yesterday, we watched the Puppy Bowl III before the Super Bowl.  Benjamin got really into the game and spent most of the time running up to the TV and barking at all the adorable puppies.

Pug Pile

Benjamin, Henry and Luna were out enjoying the afternoon sun the other day and when I looked up from my computer I saw all three snuggled up on the lounge chair.  Luckily, my camera was nearby and I was able to snap the shot from my desk.

It might just be me, but they seem to be saying, “Are you off work yet?”  I wish pugs, I wish.

Modesty

It is plain to see that Luna has none.  I thought I raised her better.

Happy Birthday, Luna!

One year ago today we adopted Luna from Compassionate Pug Rescue.  Since we don’t know when Luna’s actual birthday is, we decided that we would celebrate her adoption day as her birthday.

To celebrate we ordered her a little cake that was topped with yogurt frosting.  We didn’t invite any of Luna’s neighborhood pals over for the celebration.  The good news about having two pug brothers is there is always a party.  As soon as we brought the cake out of the box, everyone was on the scent and totally intrigued.  They never had a treat that looked like this before.  They quickly hopped up into the birthday seat and they all gazed at the cake.  The anticipation was getting the best of Henry.

Before we let anyone indulge in the cake we tortured them with pictures.  What is a birthday without a picture of the birthday girl in her birthday girl t-shirt?

At first, we were going to cut up the cake and give each pug a little square.  But then we thought we would go a little bit crazy and just turn the pugs loose on the cake.  Of course we wouldn’t let them eat the whole thing, but we thought it would be fun to watch them dive in and get their share.  Since Luna was the birthday girl, we gave here first crack at it.  She was a little lady and started working on the frosting first.

Then we released the boys and that is when Baby Benny went to town.  All three had a lot of fun diving in getting their share.  Needless to say, there was cake and icing everywhere, but Luna, Benny & Henry all had fun and we laughed so hard watching them eat it.

After we felt they had their serving we took the extra away.  Poor Benny looked so sad.  He really thought we were going to let him eat the whole thing.  Oh, Benny, you’re such a silly boy!

But I Want It

Here is Benny having a little pug tantrum.  Luna was chewing a bone and a small piece broke off.  Once it broke off it was deemed a “choking hazard” so I threw it in the trash.  Benny, being Benny, would have none of that and had a little fit.  Acting like that was the only bone in the house.  The boy cracks me up.  Also, Luna pops in to say hello to all the blog readers!

Elvis

Here is Benny working on his Elvis impersonation.  Benny is just such a bag of wrinkles and he has very big jowls that they sometimes get hung up and he just makes the most adorable faces.

When we first adopted Luna, she didn’t really have much bone etiquette.  Meaning that if one of the boys was chewing a bone she would just walk up and try to chew the other end.  Luna’s thinking was, “Your not using this end, so you shouldn’t mind if I chew it.”  This broke all the established rules for Benjamin & Henry, though.  So Benjamin showed her that simultaneous bone chewing by 2 pugs on one bone was not OK by growling and showing her his teeth.  The funny part was that no matter how hard Benny tried to lift his big jowls, you would never see his teeth.  He would try his best to scrunch up his face, but his teeth would never show.  It just cracked me up because Benny is just a big softie anyway.  He wouldn’t hurt a fly.
