On Sundays, I make the pugs’ food bowls for the week. With the addition of Sol, I believe we are now up to a total of 84 bowls. Ridiculous, I know. Sure, there are about 100 different ways that we could approach this that would require less bowls. We could put everything in a food processor and make sorta a wet food that we could store and scoop at each meal, I could make the bowls at each mealtime instead of ahead of time, but this method seems to soothe my OCD tendencies the best and is what we have been able to stick with over the years. So, If you ever come over to my house and open the fridge, just know that you will be staring at two shelves worth of dog food bowls. Anything that you may want to eat or drink is on the teeny shelf third from the top.
In the evenings, Benjamin & Henry like to bask in the sun on the sofa and keep watch out the front door. Benny is almost always perched on the back of the sofa and Henry makes himself comfortable on the arm rest. Luna gets in on the action too, but she actually sits in front of the door, like you would expect a guard dog to do. No extra comfort for her when she is on duty.
The evenings are usually pretty busy in the neighborhood. A lot of people walking dogs, jogging or riding bikes. There is most definitely a lot more foot traffic and interesting things for the pugs to bark at. I think a huge draw for the pugs though is that they can find the rays from the setting sun in the front of the house. In the mornings they spend their time out back and in the evenings they shift to the front of the house. They are like sunflowers, they always point towards the sun.
While I was snapping pictures the other day, I got a short video of the guard pugs in action. I just love how big Henry’s eyes are in the clip.
It is hard to believe that we adopted little Luna 3 years ago today. In some ways 3 years seems like a long time ago, but in other ways it seems like Luna has been with us for much longer than that. Since I first laid eyes on her, Luna has taught me a lot of things. The little lady has been with us for 1,096 days now and there hasn’t been one day that she hasn’t brought a smile to my face.
Here are a few of the more memorable Luna moments, in no particular order, that have been shared on the blog.
