Keep an Ear Out

Oh my, that could be Romeo, except he does this standing up.  Because he has big ears, people have asked me if he is 100% pug.  His bat like ears up makes people laugh, and he is at the point, if you ask him to put his bat ears up he will do it. 

Benny knows exactly what he is doing…he is not going to miss out on a thing.

People, pugs and Cupid, have a great weekend with G-Ma.
And the rest of the OBP fans, enjoy.

I think Benny is resting up for when G’Ma comes but also staying close enough to the kitchen just in case theres a treat or two have a great weekend everyone Enjoy

You are not alone Benny…GiGi sleeps with one ear UP. When she gets really upsets or wants something and I donot understand…she jumps up and down with ALL feet off the floor and both ears up while she screams her head off!!!

In our area the kids do not go door-to-door because the hourses in all the communities are far apart. People take their cars to the school parking lots with thier trunks up and the kiddies have a great time gettin treats while the adults enjoy seeing neighbors they donot get to see often. Safe for the little ones.

Genevieve’s ears do that, too. Always makes me laugh.
Tomorrow Oct. 9th is a very important day in our household, we will pick up Sir Luke !!!! We are so excited. I sure hope he doesn’t mind living in the country, he has been in Dallas for a while. Maybe he is a country pug at heart. He will definitely be a much loved little baby. I will let you know how things turn out. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I’ve been thinking about this picture for awhile.  And I started to wonder if Benny is making a statement about French Bulldogs.  Perhaps he’s saying, “they don’t have anything I don’t.  I can make my ears do that, too.” 

You’re right Benny!  You puggies ROCK!

Brenda,  I just was at dfwpugs.com and stopped to look at your Sir Luke!  And I’m sure he’ll love being a country dog!  Have a Happy Gotcha Day!!

Brenda, I saw a picture of Sir Luke on the DFW Pug Rescue website.  What a handsome boy you are getting.  I’m sure he will LOVE the country.

Hellen - I can certainly picture that (so-O funny) and have seen Abby levitate when barking, too.  Those little things are quite fearsome when something catches their eyes outside.

Grannygoogs Other than the patio lights, Cooper’s been semi-ok.  He did get in the kitty pool and then a sack of dirt and you all should see the carpet NOW.  Plus the remaining solar lights are still in tack - as of this minute.

Hey kids. you have a good weekend and nice weather.

Those of you who have more than 2 Pugs (or dogs), how do you handle the petting business?  I am always one hand and one arm short, so I try to pet two with the same arm and the other Pug with the other.  They all want pettings or belly rubs at once.  I feel like I have a kindergarten in front of me.

Brenda, you must be so excited.  (I feel your karma) Sleighbelle is right, the country is the place to be.

Brenda I just saw Sir Luke on the DFW site and he is so beautiful! What a tragedy for the owners who had to give him up, but how fortunate for you! It sounds like he is such a sweetie. Have a great time tomorrow on his gotcha day!

My poor Abby has allergy breakout or something, she has red, raw swollen skin, not just in the wrinkle crease, but also from licking her paws they’re icky too now, and also above her butt.  I gave her her little dose of benedryl like she’s had in the past, and I’ve been treating the wrinkle and above her butt with her skin cleanser, where she at least can’t lick, but I guess, tomorrow, it is off to the vet we go.  Again….. :-(  I feel like I am doing something wrong, why does my baby girl have to keep having problems?????

Oh, pug mama, how frustrating!  Abby Zabba, snap out of it!  I’m sure she would if she could!  I bet it’s the steroids, those are nasty to have to take!  I know steroids have huge benefits but they also have a LOT of side effects.  I’m gonna be taking Toeby to the vet also cuz he has “crusty” spots on his skin and on the little “moles” on his face…Don’t know what that could be…

Pug Momma I feel so bad for you with Abby and her allergies now seems like the poor baby she has had to go through so much hopefully the vet can give you something for relief for her my Emma had allergies really bad she was broke out every where so many raw spots and she went on two meds and it helped so much I hope the vet can help you and Abby hope all the sick little puggys are feeling better real soon I know what we go through when our babies are not feeling well

My lil girl Abby went to the vet this morning.  I posted about it in the “butts” post today, since it sorta fit the topic, seeing as how the biggest concern was her sore bum, which turned out to be a non-infectious hot-spot!  She’ll be ok, we’re applying cornstarch and keeping the other dogs from bothering it (we’re still housesitting and dogsitting for 2 doggies til saturday-I think my near 13 yr old Abby has had it with the youngsters!!!).  I’ll also be giving her the sedative here and there if she seems bothered and prone to rubbing herself more. 

As far as the acne concerns, my Abby has never had it, but growing up, the cats we had would get chin acne, and when we quit feeding them in plastic dishes, it went away.  So basically, their dishes were changed to either metal or ceramic, and washed on a near daily basis in hot, hot soapy water, and that seemed to kill the buggers that caused the acne-because the plastic was porous and allowed bacteria to set up camp and infect their chins. 

Prayers goin up for all these pugs keeping the veterinarians in business:-)  Prayers goin up for all the pug moms and dads that we don’t go bankrupt!!!
