Labor Day Weekend

We are excited to visit San Diego this Labor Day Weekend. San Diego has the best dog beach ever! Ocean Beach, widely known and referred to as the "Disneyland for dogs", it's our puggies favorite place to hang out and meet new friends. There is a section of the beach dedicated to dogs! Pork is coming home to Houston and reuniting with his brother, Brownie, after nearly six months of separation. We are very excited to finally bring him back home after his vacation and stay with the grandparents in San Diego. Although Pork may have enjoyed his visit since he gets overpampered by Grandma, he tends to have a little weight problem after each visit. Back to weight management diet for him. :(

Pug Birthday Party!

In the midst of numerous moves, there has been much delay in consolidating pictures from different cameras. Finally, I've got Porky's birthday pictures! Who does not love Three Dog Bakery? That place rocks! We got a bone shape carrot cake, dog goodie bags, and some other fun stuff for a lovely day at the Pasadena Rose Bowl.

Treats, Chews, and Toys please Momma!

Brown loves his chew...even when we went out for a walk, he was still thinking about his chew. When we got back into the office, he dove for the chew and zoned me out! Who, what Momma? I am busy. Don't bother me!

should dogs wear shoes?

あなたは犬を靴を身に着けるべきである考えるか .I was wondering how you, pet parents, feel about dogs wearing shoes? We have never put shoes on our dogs before but they were so cute we could not resist. We at first thought the idea of unheard of but later changed our minds as we got more use to the idea. It helps to try it on for a few minutes while supervised by parents everyday for a while before they get use to it and stop trying to chew it off. It's just like humans, breaking in a new pair of shoes is not fun! We wear shoes to protect our feet. I suppose if we did not wear shoes, our feet would be different, too. Shoes protect the dogs paws as well as look fashionable so why not? Just make sure it's the right size as the wrong size may cut off circulation. I found this article that basically read to me like why not shoes for the city dogs, too?

My Porka...Miss You Lots!

Life is not the same without my Porky here. He has been missed. I can't wait till he comes back home from Grandma and Grandpa's place in San Diego. They sure do grow fast. Thinking back, he was only 3 lbs. when he came into my life (Left second and third photo - see his baby pictures from his first week with us). His first toy was a Bamboo star (indestructible and larger than life for him) and after many months, he finally was able to grow bigger than the star and kill it. Then he grew and grew (he loves food and treats) into a very over weight 25 lbs. of pug love. We miss our pug friends (Left top photo - Rosie, Goldielocks, and Porky) and the fun outings. We welcome new Houston puggies to be our friends and do pug outings and go to dog parks.
