Pugfessions

Dogfession: noun; A confession concerning canines; a secret in your heart that you’d only share with your dog; or a secret you wouldn’t want your dog to ever find out!

Dogfessions is a fun website where dog lovers share some of their innermost doggie thoughts.  But the submissions aren’t done via e-mail, they are done via good, old-fashion post cards.  Yup, not only do you get to share you dogfession, but you get to show off your creativity and design your very own postcard with your personal dogfession.  It doesn’t matter how creative you get, all that matters is your dogfession is a reflection of you.  Once your post card is complete you send it off to the good people at Dogfessions and they’ll post it on their website (or if you are lucky, it may be in future Dogfession book).

What’s even better is that April & May are special pug themed months and they are looking for as many Pugfessions as they can get.  Best of all, for each Pugfession submitted $1 will be donated to a pug rescue organization.  The pug rescue organization benefiting from Pugfessions include:

I know I have plenty of Pugfessions to share!  I hope you send in your Pugfessions too!

What’s in a name?

I came across an interesting article in USA Today about how the most popular names for dogs are names that have more of a human ring to it.  Using their list of insured pets, Veterinary Pet Insurance came up with the top ten names of male and female dogs.  The top three names for each gender are listed below.

Male

  1. Max
  2. Buddy
  3. Rocky

Female

  1. Bella
  2. Molly
  3. Lucy

So why have dog lovers ditched the traditional names like Spot and Buddy.  Many believe it has to do with pets being more and more apart of our family.  I tend to agree.  Afterall, my boys are named Benjamin and Henry.  And if we got to name Luna she would have had a more traditional human name too.

Pug Ingenuity

This video of a sly pug getting some extra treats for himself has been around for awhile, but it still makes me laugh every time I see it.  So what better way to start off the work week than with a smile from some pug antics.  Enjoy!

Pug Tattoo Tributes - Reader Picture

Yesterday, I asked if anyone had any tattoos inspired by their pug and reader Danine did not disappoint.  She sent in a picture of a tattoo inspired by her pug Benee.

Any other pug lovers out there sporting ink in honor of their pug?

Pug Puppies Playing

It’s Wednesday and if the work week is already getting to you here is a little something to help you make it through hump day.  A video of two 4 week old puppies playing.  They are so young and utterly adorable.

My favorite part is when they both simultaneously fall over.

Pug Tattoo Tributes

The April Issue of Bark magazine features an article titled Indelible Dogs by Lisa Wogan.  In the article, Wogan shows some tattoos that were inspired by lovable canine companions.  Not surprisingly, some of those tatts were inspired by pugs.  You can see two incredible pug tattoos on the Bark blog.

Do you have any ink honoring your pug?
