Before yesterday’s big game, a game with equal importance was played, Puppy Bowl III. In case you have never seen it, the Puppy Bowl is non-stop action with puppies romping, chewing, running and playing in their water bowl all in a small arena. It will definitely make you smile. If you missed the Puppy Bowl here is a clip of the intro.
Also you can see some more highlights of the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet’s website.

I stumbled across the site Pugcasso the other night and I completely fell in love with David King’s work. There are plenty of original artworks available for sale on his site. Many are pugs, but he also has beautiful pieces of other dog breeds.

I found this via My Pugs Blog today:
Folks, we need your help. Our rescue box truck rolled into our Greensboro, NC headquarters tonight with 33 adult dogs from a confiscation in Wilson, North Carolina. We do not have a total headcount on all the PUPPIES yet, but we have them, and we have pregnant females.
Twenty of the dogs we picked up were pugs to add to the four he relinquished to us yesterday, one pug girl is in labor tonight. There are several more in various stages of pregnancy and some just bred and not showing yet. Pugs will be multiplying VERY fast here.
In addition, we have 5 or 6 mini schnauzers, one mom is nursing 5 tiny babies. We do not know yet how many more of them are pregnant.
We have 1 wunderwhat. He/she is either a Westie or a Wheaten. We’re not sure which yet.
We have 3 min pins…one pregnant and showing
We have a pregnant chi/min pin mix who will not come out of her crate and is possibly in whelp.
We have asked these other breed rescues to come help us take all but the pugs. We need help with the pugs as well. Anything you can do to help us will be deeply
appreciated.Here is the website:

The AKC recenlty released their list of the most popular dog breeds in the US in 2006. The pug did not make it into the top ten, but instead it claimed 13th place on the list. Up one from its previous ranking of 12th in 2005.
