New Chewies

When I checked the mail on Friday evening I was very happy to see that the treats I ordered for the pugs had finally arrived. I ordered a pack Himalayan Dog Chews from a site that I just found called Doggy Loot (think Groupon meets Woot). My purchase was inspired by working mother guilt and the fact that the back story of the product mentioned Mount Everest. I have pretty much been fascinated by that mountain since watching a few Mount Everest shows on the Discovery channel.

So, when they finally arrived I couldn't wait to see what the pugs thought. To my surprise all 3 pugs liked their new chews. The pugs usually hate the chews I want them to like and love the chews that I hate. So far it looks like the chews are pretty clean (no staining or messy crumbs everywhere). They do have a little bit of a smokey smell but they sure do smell a lot better than some of the other things the pugs have chewed.

The other thing I learned is that Benjamin only chews with his eyes closed. Tried forever to get a shot of him with his eyes open, but I didn't have any luck.

Sidenote: The link to the Doggy Loot site is a referr a friend link. Meaning that I will receive $10 in Doggy Loot dollars if you make a purchase. If you sign up using the link you should receive $5 in Doggy Loot dollars (at least that is what the Doggy Loot site says).

Striped Luna

Little Luna is seen here going to town on a bone. I love this picture of the little miss because she is basking in the little bit of daylight that is peeking through the blinds of the front door. It was sort of a hard photo to capture since whenever I got close to her not only would I block the sunlight but she would stop chewing. While there is not much story behind this photo, I still find interesting.

Doggy Bag

Whenever we go out to dinner we always make sure to bring the pugs home a little something. My favorite part of bringing home treats for the pugs is to see what they eat first. Last week, we brought the pugs home a few pieces of steak and leftover vegetables. Not surprisingly, the pugs went for steak first and then the only good pug to eat all his vegetables was Henry. Benjamin and Luna were wishing we brought home more steak.

The Dremel

I don't know how your pugs do with toenail clipping, but nail clipping around here is an absolute disaster. The pugs have to be bribed and even then they are still a wiggly, uncooperative mess. And the worst part is their toenails grow so fast!

So, we decided to buy a Dremel made for pets. For the boys, the Dremel has worked wonders! I can't remember the last time Benjamin's toenails were as short as they are now. And we are hoping that his quicks will recede over time so we can get his nails even shorter.

Luna, on the other hand, has different thoughts about the Dremel. She has taken to hiding whenever we break out the Dremel. So, it looks like Luna is sticking to the nail clippers.

3 Pooped Pugs

We were literally 3 houses away from home, when I ended up with 3 pooped pugs parked under a shade tree. They knew it was too early for dinner so they were in no hurry to get home. They decided to bide their time until dinner rolling around in the grass and watching the bikers and walkers that passed us by.

As I was standing there waiting for the pugs, the only thought running through my head was "Never walk a pug farther than you can carry him."
