Pugs In The City Part 4 of 4

Henry

We close our Pugs in the City posts with the final chapter. This was the breakfast on the beach event. I will say it was bordering on torture to roust Henry for this event. The breakfast started around 11 and while that is not early by even my own like to sleep in standards, Henry had such a big day the day before that he was happily recuperating well into the late morning hours.

Despite Henry's sleepiness, we managed to get up and make it to the beach in time. When we got there the yummy smells overtook him and he simply wanted to devour everything within his immediate circumference. Since this was not feasible, we took a jaunt from the covered pavilion area to the beach. And by a jaunt, I mean we carried him. Henry was toast. He entered full on stubborn mode and was not walking anywhere except back to the yummy smells.

We got to the beach where it was super windy! And even though there was a cone that said, "No Parking," Henry disobeyed the instruction and parked himself there anyway! He would not budge. He would not walk, sit or move in any capacity! He was still taking in the smells that the wind brought his way.

We saw other dogs, not just pugs, enjoying the windy day on the beach. The surf was pretty rough and the sand was gritty (not like on our beaches) so we did not really venture out to get closer to the shore. And by that, again, I mean we were getting tired ourselves of toting the 25 pound doodle boy everywhere that morning. We had brought the Solsey stroller and he may have used it by that time. We had brought the stroller everywhere with us on Saturday, but Henry scoffed at the need for such transport. Saturday he walked everywhere he needed to go. By Sunday he needed the transport, but preferred to be carried, of course.

Henry

So, after some time visiting and chatting with other pugs and their people, spending some time on the beach, we headed home. Home to Cupid who had been cat sat by Grammy. Thank you, Grammy! We gave Grammy off on Monday, though. We needed the bonus day off work to take care of our typical weekend business such as grocery shopping, cooking/making Henry bowls, cutting the grass, doing laundry and other household chores. Henry pretty much slept most of Monday! One tuckered out little pug!

Henry

Thanks again to CFPR for putting on a weekend of wonderful pug events! It was a great experience, a superb Henry adventure and a heartwarming make up trip for Henry who just over a year ago we were still not sure he'd be alive another month! But here he stands! One strong trooper of a pug!

I think Henry literally ran out of gas!  Getting carried around must have seemed like a great choice from his perspective!

You took such nice pictures of the days you spent there!  At the top of my list of favorite pics is Henry sleeping with his handsome head on the pillow ♥  So cute!  It’s wonderful that you went to Pugs in the City, and it looks like it was a very fun time for all! 

I love how he is so tuned in to smells!  Especially food smells!

Sounds like it was a great time. My fav pic is the last one-Pug Rescue with Henry looking the perfect model. Maybe next time they can have a human rescue-after carrying Henry around, it sounds like his peeps could’ve used a rescue. Have a great Halloween week-end and for the OBP-ers from Wisconsin-the Packers/Broncos game should be a good one with both teams being 6-0! Pug hugs from pastor sue & the Colorado 2

That was a busy weekend for all of you. Glad Henry made even if it wore him plum out.

Henry’s adventures, while tiring, probably boosted his morale as well.  Great job peeps.

What a great weekend! I don’t recall, but what does Henry think of the Solsey pouch?? Would he be easier to carry that way?

Big weekend, Hank!  I love all the pix, but especially H on the bench with the checkerboard of blue, green and gray pavers.

pug mama-Jen C—-Sorry for the delayed reply….
Oh, how we WISH Henry would enjoy the Solsey pouch.  He would indeed be easier to carry that way.  But Henry is one demanding pug and only wants what he wants and he has denied the Solsey pouch time after time.  The only thing he really loves are the arms of his peeps.
