Gone Surfin'

couch surfin' that is.

On Honey's new couch.   Not sure why that would make momma scrunch face.....

It's Earth Day!

Take a look at what out buddy Puglet did to spread the word about taking care of our planet:


(How cool am I? - I just embedded a video!!)

Puglet is on a mission to teach people about recycled dogs,  but he learned that dogs are not the only thing that should be recycled, reused or repurposed.  Special thanks to our friend Stubby for teaching Puglet about how important it is to treat out Earth right.

Please treat our earth kindly today, and everyday.

Busted

Seems like someone has gotten wise......

I knew I heard suspicious noises possibly involving spilled kibble, but I finally caught the perpetrator red-PAWED:

Reaching.......

Oh just a little closer and I have it!

Action shot!

Feeding frenzy.

Note that I (Gen) do all the hard work,

and Foo just helps collect the spoils.

Gettin gevery last bit of the ill gotten gains.........

Oh, there's one more I missed.

For Penny

For the past few days we have been very sad since hearing the news that our friend Penny went to the Rainbow Bridge.     We are so glad that Penny is longer in pain or has to struggle with her blindness and other medical issues.    But we will miss her Beefy Sexy self.

We thought long and hard about how to remember our friend.   We know she would not want us to be sad for long.  Mom said no to  a few of our ideas: First Class flights to Vegas,  pug size bikinis,  a lifetime supply of whipped cream.     Mom did agree to a trip to Starbucks to celebrate Penny's memory.   Of course,we felt it was fitting memorial.

In honor of Penny, come along with us!

Whippy cream?  Did someone say whippy cream?

It was a long walk, but we finally made it!

Mmmm,  lots of friendly people to meet.

Two pup cups in honor of Penny please!

Oh, and a coffee for Mom,

Sniff, sniff.    That's not like the stuff we get at home.

That hits the spot!

Hey, Mom, do I hapve a whippy cream moustache?

Oh Penny,  we will miss you so much.  

We will keep snorts on your Momma for you.

Incognito

You may be wondering why we haven't posted in a while........

We were waitin' for our ride to join the secret mission to bust out a certain persecuted pug.   Who may, or may not be from Oklahoma.     Many hijinks ensued.  It took a while to get back home.

Think anyone will recognize us?

Fuji Friday: The toof, the whole toof, and nothin but the toof......

For the past few days, Fuji has been picking at her food.   Even though she continued in her role as "Back-up Barker"  for Gen as she lets us know it's meal time, Fuji has been skipping alot more meals.  Now that does NOT mean that anyone else is welcome to her bowl of kibble.....let's not be silly!     Gen was not very understanding of the watched bowl full of food, I'll tell you.   She hovered close by, but Fuji stood her ground.  The Foo defended her untouched kibble with a barely audible growl until I finally picked it up.  

Even since Fuji came to live with us, she has occasionally turned down a meal of mere dog food.  When she first arrived, she would only tolerate wet food.  (Stinky!!!)  After weeks of combining the wet and dry, we eventually transitioned her to eat the dry.  

And what pug would turn down a meal?  But this past week, it's been getting to be too frequent.   And then I had the chance to peek in her mouth.   Bug puffy pink gums.....and........not so many teeth.  In fact, no front teeth at all.   Hmm.  Where'd they go?   I think I would have remembered if she came to us partially toothless.   Right....right?

So, we figured it was time for a trip to the doggie dentist.    Yup, some pretty inflammed gums alright.   She got some antibiotics (CA-CHING!) and some Rimadyl for the discomfort (CA-Ching!!)  and an appointment to get her teeth cleaned today.

She was dropped of at 7 this morning.   Since she's an old girl (almost 11), I was kind of concerned that she'd have some anesthesia problems.

The vet called about 10am to let us know that one tooth was very loose and needed to be extracted.  That was likely the source of her discomfort.  One other tooth has some serious gum disease but would be OK with treatment.  As for the front teeth - all missing.    That leaves her about teeth 6 left. 

She did fine with the anethesia and is getting loved on by all the vet techs.   She'll be fluffed and folded by 4pm.

Update:
Following a significant amount of primping, Fuji was released by the vet about 5pm.   Quite fluffy from her bath, but obviously loopy.    Having no moist food, we tried Minestone soup with limited success.  Yogurt was a dismal failure - at leat for the Foo. Apparently Gen LOVES the stuff!

Finally, Honey arrived with the wet food, and Fuji decimated it in less that 60 seconds.   Oh, and a little whippy cream helped the medicine go down.  Yeah - 7 pills per day.   I'm running out of disguses!!

Happily, the Foo seems like she be just fine.

Free Pearl

It has come to our attention that out friend Pearlie-poo has been unfairly imprisioned. She was taken in on trunmped up chicken-snatchin' charges.

 Clearly she was framed in this heinous crime, entraped into unbearable temptation.

Several of her friends have initiated a rescue mission.    We pray that they will be successful.
