The boys love a Kong with a dab of peanut butter inside. They will spend hours getting the peanut butter out and Henry will continue to lick and chew the Kong long after the peanut butter is gone. Luna, on the other hand, doesn’t really get the Kong. She will run off with her Kong, lick it a few times and then come running back to me all frustrated, with a look that says, “Why did you hide my peanut butter? I have a bowl you know! You could have just put the peanut butter in my bowl!”

It is difficult to see in the photograph, but Henry has some patchy fur loss on his left side. One of the spots has been thinning ever so gradually for awhile, but over the weekend, a few more patches seemed to pop up overnight. So, I made an appointment with the vet for tomorrow to go in and see what is going on. The spots don’t seem to bother him and he doesn’t scratch them. The skin in that area does not appear to be irritated and he doesn’t mind if you touch/pet where the spots are.
It will be interesting to see what the vet has to say.
To make it easier to see, I have highlighted the spots below. There are two other patchy spots, but they are on the smaller side and you can’t make them out in the picture.

Care to guess what is in that Bob Evan’s bag? Yup, it’s pumpkin bread. Looking forward to your captions in the comments.

Today is the first day of Fall and since Fall doesn’t visit Florida, each year we bring Florida to Fall. This year, Henry took Fall a little bit too serious because he absolutely refused to sit up for the picture. That is him, his face hidden behind Luna, laying on his back refusing to cooperate. And you all think Benjamin, Henry & Luna are well behaved!
Happy Fall, everyone!

Luna has been gracious enough to allow the boys to keep a small sliver of the closet for themselves. Their section of the closet is full of t-shirts. One of those shirts is their very own Owned by Pugs dog t-shirt.


Luna actually has an Owned by Pugs shirt too, but I took these photos on the same day as the Mommy’s Girl shots and Luna had already met the number of hours of work allowed by doggie labor laws.

This week’s flashback: The Infamous Dog Bed
You may have noticed that we have a thing for dog beds around here. There is pretty much a dog bed in every room. This week, I moved this dog bed to a different location and it reminded me of this post.

Whenever I am out alone with all 3 pugs, I always use their 6 foot leashes. With three energetic pugs, there is no way I can manage 3 retractable leashes. The only issue with the 6 foot leashes is that Luna has horrible leash management skills. I thought Henry was forever getting tangled, but my opinion quickly changed when we adopted Luna.
Once the pugs settle into the walk, the leashes normally drag a little bit on the ground and this is where Luna gets herself all tied up. The boys step over the leash or let it pass all the way under them, but Luna she always ends up getting her paws tied up with the leash. We are forever stopping so that I can untangle her which really annoys Ben and makes him pull on the leash, which is his way of saying, “keep up slowpokes!”
To solve the issue, I have tried taking the slack out of Luna’s leash and not letting it drag on the ground. But then she will get tangled up in one of the boy’s leashes. So in order to make it a block without having to free Luna, I have to keep the slack out of all three of the leashes. Which pretty much means, I am doing all the work of the retractable leash.
Oh, you should just see us out and about. It’s good for a laugh.
