boring puggles

2012-01-19T20:48:00.000-08:00

so i realized today that i havent posted anything since xmas. i guess its because we havent really had anything interesting to share with our blogging friends. its been a pretty quiet. i have been a generally well behaved puggle. this was the only mishap that has occured...mommy went to the store and came home to find this! i thought i had her fooled. i tried to make it look like baby jack tore open the pillow but she knew better. i'll have to try harder next time. its finally starting to get cold in jersey so mommy has been making sure jack and i stay warm.and probably the most exciting thing that has happened is mommy has enrolled me in agility school! she decided all my jumping should be put to good use. i'm only in a beginner class but i am apparently very good at it. (duh i'm a puggle) mommy is hoping to get some really good pictures and videos by the end of class.
we still have 3 more classes to go. but this is a shot of me laying down on one of those bouncy material balls. the teacher said it was really hard to do and no one else in class could do it. i did it on the first try. they said i must have great balance and inner core strength! the best part of class is its just mommy and me and no stinky jack!

presents presents presents

2011-12-26T21:14:00.000-08:00

Well christmas has come and gone and boy did jack and i get a lot of presents. Before christmas we got a package in the mail from our good buddy preston.
Jack is a toy hog and always steals the toys. but mommy says this toy is perfect for me because its an angel on one side and a devil on the other. apparently i have tendencies to be less than angelic all the time
We woke up yesterday to presents! Santa claus came! and he presents for me and jack! jack couldnt wait to open his presents! he was begging mommy to let him at them!

Here we are playing with some of our new toys from santa claus...And these arent even all of our presents! these are just the ones from Santa ! We got cookies and bones and more toys from family! and just when i thought all the posing for pictures was over mommy made me do this Grandma gave her this for christmas for our food. i guess my mommy cant read because it says dog food. not place puggle here! I guess i cant complain though after all my presents. We hope everyone out there was just as spoiled as us!

our first christmas presents!!

2011-12-19T22:45:00.000-08:00

Can you believe Christmas is almost here! I sure hope santa doesnt forget to come and bring me presents. I think i've been one good puggle this year. Mommy says Santa is definitely going to bring jack presents because he's the good one. She falls for his innocent face everytime. But its ok if Santa doesnt come because i already got presents from my good friends in Florida Bruschi and Ebby!
Here i am reading the label..it says mommys name on it, but i'm pretty sure they meant me. Mommy was taking too long so i took the initiative to open the box on my own. Notice you dont see jack doing any of the work.Since i opened the box i'll just help myself and take this one i think...This toy says its hard to be good. I'm glad someone understands how i I feel.
Not only does bruschi and ebbys mom get me...she knows the truth about jack...they could practically be twins!
After my brother took all the toys for himself he decided he was too tired to play anymore and took a nap on one of them! So thanks bruschi and Ebby for all our great stuff hopefully it wont be the only presents i get this year!

Christmas spirit!

2011-12-10T20:33:00.000-08:00

Hi guys! sorry we havent posted in a while. we've been busy helping mommy get the house read for our favorite holiday...Christmas!!! We love christmas the most because we get the most presents! We helped mommy decorate the Xmas tree and she put a puggle on top of the tree this year!
as you can see there is no tree skirt. This may be my fault...I tend to either run around the house with it, or pee on it. oops. anyway,after we helped decorate our pretty tree we helped decorate the outside of the house too.So now that the house is all decorated there is only one thing left to do...wait for santa to arrive!
We even went to see santa to tell him how good we were being! Look at jack...trying to hog santa and put his extra cute face on. what a ham! We hope everyone else is in the holiday spirit and being extra good waiting for their presents!

Happy Thanksgiving!

2011-11-25T22:21:00.000-08:00

Hopefully your thanksgiving was better than jacks...

pee=bath

2011-11-13T20:40:00.000-08:00

During our walk today, i "accidentally" peed on my brother jacks head. I was peeing on the pole and next think i know mommy was yelling at meThis is the scene of the crime. Since my brother had pee on his head mommy brought us right home and i heard the "b" word...bath! I sat there and laughed to myself that jack had to get a bath now. hee hee hee. i thought she was coming to give me a hug but she scooped me up and but me in the bathrooom! Can you believe it! I didnt get peed on. i didnt need to get clean!
I look sorry dont i? Well apparently mommy didnt believe it because a few minutes later this was me I dont particularly care for a bath and neither does jack but he was next. He looks clean to me! no more pee! and of course after his bath jack runs around the house like a lunatic.

belated halloween

2011-11-04T01:43:00.000-07:00

I've been yelling at mommy for days that she hasnt posted our pictures online yet of us in our costumes but she has been "busy". i dont count going to see a live taping of conan obrien in nyc as more important than my blog, but i couldnt reach the laptop. she didnt want me taking anymore keys off. so far the q is MIA. no one uses the Q key anyway. so here it is...our halloween costumes!it was even cold enough for us to wear our halloween sweaters a few days before!
Even mommy dressed up this year. She was agnes from despicable me!She tried to recreate this photo with me but i wasnt very cooperative.I hope everyone had a safe halloween and got lots of treats without having to do too many tricks!

traitor!!!

2011-10-15T21:13:00.000-07:00

My mommy is a traitor! she told me and my little brother that she was going away for a few days and that our uncle andrew would stay with us and she would be back before we knew it. now, i really dont like when my mommy goes to work let alone leaves me alone for 3 days!!! she promised she would come back though, and i love uncle andrew so i gave her the benefit of the doubt. let me tell you, three days is a LONG time. i thought she was never gonna come back. but then...i heard the bells on the back door and heard mommy call my name. i ran over to her so fast and couldnt stop jumping up and down i was so excited, but then...i smelt something strange.

I smelt Bruschi and Ebby!!!! Mommy left us to go to Florida to see other doggies!!!!!! Can you believe it!!! i was horrified when i heard! i was so angry with mommy that when she ran out for a little bit i tore apart her magazine all over the house! that will teach her not to leave me to see other dogs ever again! She said it wasn't just to see them. She said she went there to surprise their mommy for her birthday. They did all kinds of fun things together. Mommy said they went to downtown disney and ate at lots of good places and even went to the pool. Doesnt she know i love to lay on a raft in the pool too? I think this picture is the worst though...
I dont know about you but this doesnt look like she is missing me at all!!!! I cant believe my puggle eyes. anyone out there want to adpot me and jack? when she came home she kept talking about how good bruschi and ebby are. such show offs if you ask me. so jack and i are in the market for a new mommy. anyone out there interested?

surgery!

2011-10-09T15:42:00.000-07:00

a few weeks ago mommy noticed a black dot on my ear. at first she thought it was a tick but she
kept a close eye on it. after about two weeks it grew and grew so mommy knew she had to take me to the vet. the doctor didnt like it so they told me i had to come back in a few days and get surgery! mommy apologizes because she doesnt have the picture of what my ear looked like but it was grey and black and scabby and scaly. yuck! no puggle wants that on their perfect floppy ear. so i was a brave boy but to get general anestithia. mommy picked me up a few hours later and i was so tired and dopey i could barely keep my eyes open. this is what my ear looked like afterMy perfect puggle ear is half naked! Mommy said the hair will come back but it matches my front paw that they shaved from where the IV went.
After the first day i was back to my normal self. they said i have to wear the cone of shame if i scratch at my ear but i havent touched it yet. To make me feel better my best friends in Florida bruschi and ebby sent me some delicious muffins!!While jack was making a mess on the kitchen floor with his i took mine to the bed so jack couldnt steal it. that pig is always looking for more food.
So thanks again ebby and bruschi and their mommy and daddy for thinking of me!!! we have to wait about a week for the results of the biopsy to come back but paws crossed its just a skin tag.

new stuff

2011-09-28T14:52:00.000-07:00

hi guys! i know i haven't posted lately but i really haven't had anything exciting to report. Until today! mommy said this morning she was going out and would be back in a little bit. well a little bit sure felt like forever but as soon as i saw the bags in her hands she was forgiven! She bought us new treats!!!
ooooh mommy what are these funny looking things? i've never played with one of those before. wait what.....they came from where? a deer? are you sure i'm supposed to be chewing on one of these? Ok well if you say so...i'll try it. i hope it didnt hurt bambi.
of course she had to get one for the pig to try. and of course the pig liked it.speaking of pigs...jack is such a pig he outgrew his raincoat so mommy had to get him a new one...what do you think?

Hide and Seek

2011-09-13T04:20:00.001-07:00

Hey guys! i know its been awhile since my last blog but we haven't had too much to report. Jack and i have been hanging out enjoying the end of our summer. One game we have learned and certainly been playing a lot lately is hide and seek.
This is where i like to go when i've had enough of my little brother jack. Usually when i've decided i'm done playing chase i run under mommys bed. (i also go here when i steal things so mommy doesnt yell at me) For some reason jack does not know he can also fit under the bed to nmo. shhhhh don't tell him. Usually he just barks and barks at me until i decide i want to come out.As you can see here jack as finally given up and just decided to lay on top of the bed until i finally come out. I win again!!!!

i'm three!

2011-08-25T19:22:00.001-07:00

mommy made me wear this silly hat for pictures on my birthday. i didnt mind as long as i got to play with one of my new toys.So i've only been 3 years old for one day but its pretty great. I got another package in the mail today. My buddy preston sent me birthday presents!i immediately chose the lion but jack had to try them all out. Thank you so much Preston and Nolan for our gifts! we love them!And since i'm a year older of course mommy made me do my trick for the camera.

A froggy third birthday party

2011-08-21T16:11:00.000-07:00

today was my 3rd birthday party! it was supposed to be a pool party but it rained all day so we had to bring the festivities inside. All my aunts and uncles came to celebrate with me. since it is my 21st birthday mommy let me try beer for the first time!It was pretty tasty even jack snuck in a few licks Jack cant wait until hes 21 too
Check out my awesome cake! Mommy made me and jack a special doggie cake to eat though I think three is gonna be a pretty good year! thanks for the party everyone!

My first 3rd birthday present

2011-08-19T12:30:00.000-07:00

Hi guys! My birthday is coming up...wednesday the 24th to be exact and i got my first birthday presents in the mail! They were from my best buds Ebby and Bruschi in Florida!
Jack thinks he smells treats inside, go figure. you dont get to be a 37 pound puggle without food constantly on the brain. I am trying to figure out how to get whats inside.
Mommy said if we sit nice and pose she will open it for me so here we are posing. lets get to the good stuff already mom!
Holy cow! Look at all those presents for me! I cant read so i'm going to have to take mommys word on it but she said some of the are actually for jack too. I thought his birthday was in march. hmmmm

look at all the stuff I, I mean we got!! There are cookies and stuffed toys for the pool. It's like its Christmas or something!
And check these out...Miami Dolphin collars! Mommy said it must have been really hard for Bruschi and Ebbys mommy to buy these since shes a HUGE Patriots fan even though she lives in Florida. maybe the team wont stink so much now if we wear them!
Thank you guys so much! youre the best friends a puggle could ever ask for!
And just a side note. You can see jack eating his toys leg off. This was only two minutes after mommy gave it to him. This is why we cant have nice things!

Summer heat

2011-07-26T13:11:00.000-07:00

Its been pretty hot in NJ lately, the temps have been in the high 90s with the heat index in the uppers 100's! Its been too hot to do anything so jack and i have been doing a lot of sleeping. Its way too hot for the park and even when we run around in the yard we want to come right back in. the only cool treat is our pool. Mommy has been letting us go swimming alot. We've learned a few interesting things about jack. it turns out that he loves to swim! all that time he kept wanting to get off the raft was because he just wanted to swim around.
And when he wants a break, his favorite place is on top of the ladder. Its like he's our own little lifeguard! He has also learned how to jump in the pool off the ladder! I cant believe it. I just like floating around on my raft. He's pretty good at it though. Mommy mangaged to get a video of it...check him out.

Move over Michael Phelps...Jack Wilson is preparing for the 2012 Olympics!!!

happy baby jack day!

2011-07-13T23:01:00.001-07:00

Hi everyone its me jack again! i just wanted to take this time to say what a lucky puggle i am. Mommy has been going around the house saying that today is baby jack day. Today is the day mommy came and got me and brought me to my real home.
this was me meeting my big brother for the very first time. I love my big brother.
but as you can see i love my mommy more! this is the first time she held me and i showered her with kisses and i havent stopped!
Look how tiny i was...geez now i'm all grown up. Mommy says i'm too grown up. i weigh 36.8 lbs!!! it must be all that yummy food mommy feeds me.
this is me then...and look at me now! Happy baby jack day everyone!

where did my spots go?

2011-07-06T01:48:00.000-07:00

Ok so mommy asked me to blog about something specific this time. if you look at pictures from me from last summer i have several spots on my chest. Mommy thought they were very cute. This picture is actually from two summers ago.
But mommy noticed after the summer ended my spots went away. she thought it was a little strange so she went back and looked through my pictures (which are a lot) but she couldnt find any spots on my chest.
This picture is also from last summer... i'm not wet but the spots are still there
Yesterday she saw that the spots are coming back! Yesterday we went swimming and the spots are definitely there. Does anyone else out there have this phenomena?

beach puggles

2011-06-22T22:30:00.000-07:00

Hi guys! its me jack again. i have the best mommy in the world! the other day she took me to the beach for the very first time! she was a little worried i might not like it but boy was she wrong. I love the beach!

i'm sure you can tell by all the sand on my face! I have never been to the ocean before and at first i was a little skeptical of going in the water. oliver jumped right in and started swimming though.
you can see me it the background looking unsure of the whole thing. mommy took a video of her trying to get me in the water

once she got me in i liked it! then we got to meet other doggies and dig in the sand without getting yelled at! The beach was very tiring. as soon as mommy put me in the car i fell right asleep. i loved my first beach experience and cant wait to go back again!

Late night snack

2011-06-08T22:26:00.000-07:00

Hi everyone its me jack! Oliver is sleeping so i stole mommys laptop and decided to say hi to you guys. I'm actually in a little bit of trouble with mommy. The other night when she went to work i decided i was a little hungry and went around the house looking for something to eat. this is the after picture.
Now from the picture it doesnt look too bad but you dont know what is missing...
Mommy had sewn 11 inches of this stuff to keep the duvet cover closed so not only did i eat the top part but i ate the bottom part too! I thought it was pretty impressive that i ate 22 inches of velcro but my mommy did not share in my enthusiasm.
Sorry mommy. i didnt mean to get you worried. she called the vet and they said to keep an eye on me. i still eat like a pig and play all day. i havent gotten even the tiniest bit sick so the vet said thats a good sign. hopefully the velcro comes out in a few days so she can stop worrying. Next time leave out some cookies when you go to work and i wont have to eat the velcro!

pool time!

2011-05-30T22:30:00.000-07:00

Now that the rain has stopped it has been getting very hot in NJ. So hot that mommy decided it was time to open the pool. Mommy decided that i'm a very good swimmer and since i stay on my raft i didn't need to put my life jacket on today.

Jack on the other hand isn't as experienced as i am so mommy made him suit up! (we like the show how i met your mother)
Jack is trying to figure out why he's the only one in the silly yellow thing
So mommy puts me in the pool and i immediately swim to my raft. i know to just chill out and enjoy the nice water. Jack does not know he can just stand still. he constantly walks around and mommy gets worried he is going to flip us over. he even tries to climb on me!

I'm not a floatation device jack!!! Thank you mommy for opening the pool so we can cool of in this hot summer weather!

new wheels!

2011-05-21T20:56:00.001-07:00

Our personal driver mommy got us a new car! A 2011 Nissan Juke!It's been raining a lot in Jersey so mommy didnt tell us about it for 4 days. when the rain finally stopped jack and i got to go for our first ride!I have to check out the back to make sure there is enough space for our dog food.
Mommy's main requirement was 4 doors. our last car had suicide back doors so jack and i didnt have windows that can roll down. we were pretty excited to be able to stick our heads out the window.Its gonna take a little getting used to to get in the car but overall...jack and i approve of our new car! Now we can ride to the park in style!!!

Purin the Super Beagle

2011-05-20T20:41:00.000-07:00

Mommy came across this amazing puppy on facebook and just wanted to share some of his amazing tricks. I hope she doesnt get any crazy ideas that i'm going to be doing any of this.

and mommys favorite...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwIe4r7fIa0&feature=related

This is me doing my nap time trick!

Uh oh

2011-05-13T20:46:00.000-07:00

So today mommy ran out to the store leaving me and my brother alone. For the most part we have been very good and haven't really destroyed anything. Mommy thought we were finally all grown up until...
She came home and walked into the living room and saw this! Now I don't know why she immediately blamed me for this. I have a little brother too. and last i checked he has teeth.

One of us chewed a hole in the couch and pulled out the stuffing. Like i said i dont know why i always get blamed. Jack may look the part and he may have my mommy fooled but hes not as sweet and innocent as she thinks.

but luckily we are adorable and tilt our heads and she forgets all about it!

Happy easter

2011-04-24T21:51:00.001-07:00

Jack and i want wish all our friends out there a happy easter!

We hope the easter bunny visited you all and brought you lots of presents!

new bed and new collars!

2011-04-20T02:30:00.000-07:00

The other day mommy came home with a new bed for us! she said she only got one because she thought that only jack would lay in it. She also said when i was a puppy i chewed up all my beds. But now that i'm a big boy i don't do that anymore (knock on wood) Here i am waiting for jack to get out of the bed so i can try it!Finally! this is almost as comfy as mommys lap!Mommy also saw these collars online and had to order them for us. she said they are perfect.
This is jacks...can you guess why? Piggies for the piggy!
And this is what mommy got me but i don't know what ever gave her this idea. I think i've been unfairly misrepresented!

Thing one thing two thing three

2011-04-03T23:22:00.000-07:00

A few months ago when aunt vera and uncle max went to disney they were very thoughtful and brought us back shirts. For those of you who dont know what thing one and thing two are they are characters from Dr Seuess books...
So they thought it would be cute for me to be thing one, jack thing two, and they even got one for mommy...thing 3. now mommy tried a few times to take pictures by herself of us as a family with our shirts on but apparently it was harder than she thought. the best should could do was her with just one of us at a time or just us.
So after jacks party was over mommy enlisted the help of uncle andrew, uncle tanuj, aunt dayna and aunt vera and uncle max to try and get our pictures done. with 5 other people...it still didnt go as well as she hoped.
Weighing in at 33 pounds jack was a little hard to hold especially when you factor in his squirminess
I dont know what she was thinking trying to hold both of us at the same time

Sitting is a little better

We'll do anything for treats
and finally...

my 1st birthday party

2011-03-26T21:56:00.000-07:00

Hi everyone its jack again. Today was my very first birthday party! Mommy almost had to cancel the party though because last night i had to go the hospital because i didnt feel good. I had a boo boo belly. I'm feeling better though. Mommy decided to make my 1st party a pasta party, which is lucky becuase the doctor said the pasta is good for my belly!

Oliver wore a tie for the occasion. i had my tie on but i ate half of it. Mommy was not happy with me especially because i'm still sickMommy made me and ollie cupcakes becuase the human cake is chocolate
By the end of the party we were pooped! It was so much fun. thanks for all the birthday wishes!

Stare and chase

2011-03-21T20:06:00.000-07:00

Hi everyone its jack again. This birthday stuff is great! I got another present in the mail today. This time it came from Texas from my friend Preston! Mommy said my birthday isnt until wednesday, and my party isnt until saturday but i keep getting presents. Once again Oliver is trying to get into the package. Doesnt he know his birthday isnt until August! Preston was so nice he got me a toy that is supposed to be really really hard to get the stuffing out of and some treats!And as usual there is my brother trying to get my toy before mommy said we can have it. He is so impatient sometimes
So about an hour into the toy. i chewed off both of the possums ears, one of his feet, put a hole in his tail, and his other foot is about to come off. Not to mention we got all the stuffing out including the noise maker.
After I played with my toy for awhile mommy got up and i knew it was time for the park! Because it had rained earlier today, there were no other doggies at the park. which is fine by me becuase i can still play my favorite game with my brother. First I get down really low to the ground and stalk my brother, then when i'm ready to make my move i chase him. then we stop and stare each other down and then its chase time again! its a great game. Mommy got some of it on film. check it out

all about us

2011-03-14T20:48:00.000-07:00

Maddy and Owen passed it onto to us...so now we're supposed to tell you 7 things you don't already know...

1) I am a total mommas boy. I cry and whine and follow mommy everywhere
2) Jack will follow anyone or go anywhere as long as there is food involved. he has no loyalty
3) I like to sleep curled into a little ball, and jack likes to sleep sprawled out but he has to have some part of him touching mommy
4) Jack is a poop eater! I know ewwwwwwww. Ok ok for some reason there is one dog at the park whose poop i eat too
5) After mommy gets out of the shower i have to jump in the tub and lick the faucet, i've always done it since i was a puppy
6) In the morning after jack eats he runs on the couch or the bed, rolls on his back into the covers and makes all kinds of noises
7) Jack hates being wiped down with puppy wipes...you would think you were about to torture him. he sees mommy go for the wipes and he runs!

Ok now we pass it along to...Minnie Moo, Preston, Piggy, & CoCo!

puggle leprechaun

2011-03-08T20:56:00.000-08:00

Since its almost St patrick's day...mommy has decided that she would dress me up in olivers leprechaun hat. here's how it went....First she made me sit with this silly hat onthen she made me lay down. i was not happy because it was time for bed and she was making do this so i wanted to take a napfinally she decided i looked adroable enough and didnt have to take anymore
then oliver and i made a run for it up the stairs to the upstairs apt in case she wanted to make us wear any other silly things but she caught us.

The mommy spot!

2011-02-24T00:00:00.000-08:00

It feels like so long ago when it was just me and mommy before jack. i loved being an only child. i didnt have to fight with anyone for the mommy spot. For those of you who dont know what that is...its when you sit on, or right up against mommy. Jack and i are always trying to get the mommy spot. especially when she comes home from work in the morning. you can see in this picture i have claimed the mommy spot in bed. i even put my paw on her shoulder as a little extra so jack knew she is MY mommy!

Jack beat me this time to the couch so i let him have it. lots of times though if he is under the covers by mommys legs i push him until he moves hee hee hee

Sometimes i have to share mommy though. its hard to see jack because he blends in with mommys black shirt but hes there laying on her chest

and once again i'm forced to share the mommy spot with jack on her tummybut we all know that she likes it when its just me and her!!!!!!!

petsmart and pimples

2011-02-17T23:00:00.000-08:00

Mommy was so excited today when she was online looking for the weekly petsmart circular and she found this!They are finally using puggles for their models! Mommy thinks i would make a great model but i think she's biased because shes my mommy. jack might have to lose a few pounds though. he went to the vet the other day and at 11 months hes 31.4 lbs!
Mommy finally had to take jack to the vet because his pimples have not gotten better and were spreading. The vet said he had a little infection and has to go on antibiotics for 2 weeks. She is glad to report though that after only 2 days its starting to look much better! I guess thats what happens when you stick your puggle face in snow and dirt for a month! Mommy said now jack needs proactiv for his pimples and braces for his underbite!!!

Happy Valentines day!

2011-02-14T04:39:00.000-08:00

Jack and I just wanted to wish all our friends out there a happy valentines day. We have two valentines this year...we obviously have our mommy. And we have also asked our good friend Ebby to be our valentine too! Sorry B. but i'm sure you understand. LOL Because we are mommy's valentines she got us presents! Out of the tons and tons of toys we have jack and I both love our colored rings made by hartz. Mommy buys us nylabones, and kongs, and stuffies and all kinds of good stuff but for some reason we love these toys!
This is what they look like when they are new
and this is what they look like after a few days...Mommy made us wait patiently before we could take them though
So lots of puggle kisses going out to all of you. And make sure you pass those kisses onto your mommies and daddies that take such good care of you and love you so much!

pretty paws!

2011-02-03T04:30:00.000-08:00

Well mommy decided she had enough of being scratched and she couldnt take it any longer so she decided it was time to cut our nails. Now mommy didnt tell me that we were going to petsmart to get our nails done. i thought we were going to get toys and treats. Boy was i wrong! for those of you who dont know i used to be the perfect puggle when i got my nails clipped. but i got my nail clipped too short and ever since then...i do not like when people try and cut my front paw. mommy warned the nice people at petsmart so they started with the back paws. i saw there perfectly still like an angel. then they moved to the front. i was not a good boy. they had to put me in the cone of shame to finish. luckily mommy didnt take any pictures of this or i would have been embarrassed. then it was jacks turn. now mommy has only tried to cut jacks nails once and it did not go well. he screamed and squirmed so bad that they told mommy he would have to be sedated. but since mommy had a coupon and we were already there we tried one more time for jack. now i'm not saying he was a perfect little angel but mission accomplished. and because we were such good boys mommy bought us treats!
So thanks to the wonderful people at petsmart jack and i have pretty puggle paws again!

winter blues

2011-01-25T21:50:00.000-08:00

Well for all you puggles that dont live in jersey...let me tell you whats been going on. SNOW. thats all its been doing here. we are expected to get another 6-10 inches tomorrow night mixed with sleet and ice. they said it may snow up to 1 to 2 inches an hour. we haven't been able to pee on grass in weeks. all it is is snow on top of more snow on top of more snow
my poor little puggle paws are so red from the cold and ice. when we go to the park i even stand on the bench to keep my paws out of it. Dont get me wrong jack and i like to run around in it and jack loves to eat it but enough is enough.
not to mention its been really cold here. mommy has been keeping us warm in our snow suits and our sweaters. we hope all our other puggle friends are staying warm!

more clothes!

2011-01-12T20:25:00.000-08:00

Ok my mommy needs professional help! The other day we got 4 new shirts in the mail! FOUR! can you believe it! she started out looking for big brother little brother shirts.But while she was looking online she found this and it was perfect for jack!
And mommy didnt want to be unfair and just get jack a shirt and not me so i got this!

So now our closet is even bigger! And with all these shirts and jammies why am i sitting here completely naked? no collar or anything? Mommy said this is my statue pose!

professional puggles

2011-01-03T21:53:00.000-08:00

Jack and i got a late christmas present from mommys aunt the other day. TIES WITH OUR NAMES ON THEM!!!! so now when jack and i need a more business look we are all set. Check out how good we look...Jack is always trying to get food from mommy. he is always looking on the table for something to eat. doesnt he know he's supposed to act professional in his tie.i'm going to go outside and see who i can show off my new tie to in the neighborhood

my new years resolution

2011-01-01T20:40:00.000-08:00

i dont know if i'm the only puggle who does this but for some reason ever since i was little i whine when i get in the car. i love going for car rides so its not that i'm afraid of the car and i only do it on the way somewhere. usually when we are on the way home i'm quiet as a mouse. mommy thinks its because i whine that i cant sit in her lap while she drives. she seat belts me in for safety so i cant sit on her lap. so for mommys sanity my new years resolution is to not be so whiny during car rides. here is a video...

Happy new year!

2010-12-31T22:33:00.001-08:00

To all our friends out there...Happy new year! Wishing you all the best for 2011!!!

<3
oliver and jack

Santa came!

2010-12-25T22:20:00.000-08:00

I can't believe it. He really does exist! Hi everyone this is jack. Shhh ollie is sleeping so i "borrowed" his blog. Please don't tell him because he got really mad from the last time. Anyway...Santa Claus is real! I still dont believe my puggle eyes! All those presents! When we woke up this morning mommy said to look under the tree and there they were...PRESENTS!!!

As soon as i sniffed around i smelt peanut butter so i went right to work opening my present. Oliver sniffed around and opened a few but i didnt want to leave my peanut butter filled bone.
Mommy finally helped us open the rest of presents. Look at all the stuff we got!And this picture doesnt include the seatbelt grandma and grandpa gave us, our new toothbrushes from our aunt, and cookies from our great grandparents!
I guess santa and mommy have the same taste because the jammies she bought our good friends bruschi and ebby santa brought for us!

mommy really likes the jammies because she made us take a ton of pics in them! but i dont mind because i'll do anything for food!

Needless to say as far as Christmas goes...this one was the best! Ok i know it was only my first but i loved it. Thank you Santa Claus!!!! I hope all my friends out there got lots of presents too! Oliver is up...you never saw this post shhhh

Merry Christmas!

2010-12-24T17:23:00.000-08:00

Jack and i are all ready in our jammies waiting for santa to arrive. Mommy says if we want santa to come we have to go to sleep early. She had to tell jack a few times to lay down. He finally got the hint.

so while we wait til christmas morning for santa claus to bring us our presents we wanted to say merry christmas to our all friends out there and hope santa is good to each and everyone of you. !!

circus jack?

2010-12-22T20:57:00.001-08:00

I think my baby brother is training for the circus. all of a sudden he decided to show off how well he can balance on his back two legs. for a porky little puggle he does a good job. mommy tried to capture it on video. this is the best she can do. maybe for christmas santa will get her video lessons.

I love Christmas!

2010-12-20T16:28:00.000-08:00

Ok so next to my birthday christmas is my favorite time of the year! Today we got another package in the mail. This time it was from our friend Preston in Texas! Preston was kind enough to send us two stuffed dinos and treats!

As you can see jack can hardly wait to get his paws on them. But i'm a good little puggle posing with my toy so mommy can take pics for the blog. And i'm sure you can guess what happened to the poor little dinos after seeing mr owls fate...

And as for the other one...watch this

jacks first christmas present!

2010-12-13T15:02:00.000-08:00

Today the UPS man arrived with a package for me and jack! It was from our good friends in Florida Bruschi and Ebby! We were very excited to see what was inside. As soon as mommy opened it jack put his big head in and grabbed the stuffed owl and ran! I knew smelt more goodies inside so i took another look in the box. Not only did we get new stuffed toys but we got Edible cards and cookie mix! I was so excited for the card i took it before mommy could even take it out of the wrapper.
and about after twenty minutes...this is what remained of poor xmas owl. Thank you so much Bruschi and Ebby!

Naughty? Me?

2010-12-09T16:56:00.000-08:00

Well as we get closer and closer to Christmas mommy got our house all ready. The tree is up and decorated and she hung up our stockings for Santa to fill. Jack and I each have our ornaments on the tree and she even got us these shirts.

I'm not sure why I got stuck with the one that says naughty and jack got the one that says nice. What has he done that is so nice? I saw he hacked into my blog and posted a few entries. Ask my mommy why there is no seatbelt in the back for the passenger on the driver side. She'll tell you a certain black "nice" puggle ate it so it retracted back into the wall of the car. Does that sound like a nice puggle to you? If you ask me mommy's got it all backwards.

SANTA!

2010-12-04T14:21:00.000-08:00

OMG guess what! I met Santa claus today! Mommy said oliver and i were going to the store and were going to meet someone special. I was so excited i couldnt think of who it would be. Then as we walked into Petsmart...there he was. the man that brings the presents! I could not believe my puggle eyes. Oliver didnt really seem that interested in him but i couldn't believe it. I wasnt sure if he was there to check up on me but i was on my best behavior just in case. Then mommy put me on his lap! He asked what i wanted for Christmas and I gave him kisses. Who doesn't like puggle kisses. I hope I made a good first impression. Uh oh ollie is coming. gtg! (here are some pics) in case you dont believe me

santa claus?

2010-11-30T16:59:00.001-08:00

Hi everyone this is jack. i'm secretly borrowing my big brothers blog. SHHHHH dont tell him. so since its my first christmas i had a few questions. my mommy said i have to be good or santa claus wont bring me presents. is this true or just a way for mommy to trick me into being an extra good puggle. and how does this santa thing work. how does he bring presents to all the doggies around the world in one night? and what is with the flying reindeer and can i fly too? and what is with the big green tree in the middle of my living room? i thought that trees only stay outside? and why do i have to wear this silly thing on my head???

happy jack day!

2010-11-24T14:23:00.000-08:00

just wanted to say happy thanskgiving to all our blogging friends out there! I hope you all have a wonderful turkey day with your friends and family and hopefully someone slips you some yummy food!

wacky walker

2010-11-20T21:15:00.000-08:00

my mommy took me and my little brother to the store yesterday. Dogs and cats rule is one of her favorite pet stores around. Not only do the owners have 2 puggles a black one and a tan one like me and jack but it has all the things that she orders online in the store! they have the rubit clips, our darford treats from bruschi, bison bites from preston, and our newest find...the wacky walker! I guess mommy got tired of me and jack pulling her around in every direction because she got us these new leashes to prevent us from pulling. they are made out of stretchy rubber so when we pull away from mommy it just pulls us back. when jack was trying it out in the store he kept sliding across the hard wood floors lol. i was laughing at him. mommy also likes them because since its made out of rubber we wont chew on it and break them. they are a little more money but she thinks its totally worth it. Mommy said shes sorry for the lack of pictures but its hard to walk us and get good shots.

Squirrel!

2010-11-17T12:32:00.000-08:00

Today mommy got us new toys! but these toys are better than any other toys because mommy puts yummy stuff inside. thanks to prestons mom my mommy put in peanut butter and bananas! jack and i love them. they are so yummy.

Dogtober fest!

2010-11-06T11:21:00.000-07:00

Today mommy tooks us to Loreal sponsered Dogtoberfest! I'm so tired i can barely keep my eyes open to blog about it. First we had to park far away and take a bust to get there. It was my first time on a bus. i was very well behaved. the main attraction was this corn maze.

we went in and came out somewhere but we're not sure if we came out the right exit. there was pumpkin bowling for the humans, pink duck races (uncle max won his heat but lost in the semi finals) and an egg spoon dog race. uncle max and i almost won our heat but he dropped the egg right before the finish line. after that jack was closely in second place. here is the photo finish

we had so much fun i cant wait to go back next year!

rainy day activities

2010-11-04T13:23:00.000-07:00

Its been raining all day here in Jersey and there isn't a whole lot for us puggles to day. we spent most of our day sleeping. mommy decided that if we didn't do something soon we were gonna be terrors tonight so she got my favorite toy...the LASER!!!!! i absolutely LOVE chasing the laser. i know mommy makes the red light come from her hand but still i love chasing that thing around the house. jack likes to chase it too but hes not as good as me. watch for yourself...

puggle liberation day

2010-11-01T14:46:00.000-07:00

Two years ago today mommy drove 6 hours to bring me to my new home. She freed me from my amish life. this was me two years ago

Wasn't i the cutest little thing? Who would have known that i would grow up to be a trouble maker. i went from battery powered lamps to having my very own closet. look how much its grown!

so to all you puggles out there kiss your mommy and daddy and thank them for your wonderful spoiled lives!

happy halloween!

2010-10-30T15:06:00.000-07:00

As you all know by now my brother and i are a turkey and pilgrim for halloween! we just wanted to wish all our friends a safe and fun halloween tomorrow. we've seen most of your costumes and you all look great! we have already offered to be official candy checkers in case mommy should need it. Happy Halloween!!

First place puggle!

2010-10-23T18:24:00.000-07:00

Well its that time of year again where mommy makes me walk around in silly clothes. This year for Halloween mommy made us a pilgrim and turkey! Can you believe it! What
will she think of next.

Today at the petsmart in our town they had a halloween parade and costume contest. guess who took 1st place....

JACK the turkey!!!!!!! I'm not sure why as the pilgrim i didnt win too but at least one of us won. i'm pretty sure the only reason why jack won is because they thought he was really a turkey from how chunky he's getting!

puggle pumpkins!

2010-10-21T15:20:00.001-07:00

So mommy was very busy today carving puggle pumpkins. well...at least the best she could to make them look like puggles. Obviously the black one is for my little brother jack.

Of course as soon as jack saw the pumpkins he tried to eat it! doesnt he know its for decoration only. As you can see i pose nicely with my pumpkin.

Eating habits

2010-10-20T03:34:00.000-07:00

Ever since i was a puppy i did not like eating out of my bowl. this is the first day mommy brought me home and as you can see i wouldnt eat my food out of my bowl.

Mommy has learned that the best way to get me to eat is to either hand feed me (she is so trained) or to put my food on the floor. For some strange reason i hate eating out of my bowl. mommy has bought me a bunch of different sizes and colors and i just dont like any of them. Before jack came along mommy would just leave my food in the bowl all day and eventually i would eat it at night but now that the little doggie vacuum cleaner is here we cant do that.
So now mommy bought me this nice tray to eat off of. so far i eat my food like a regular dog. the only problem is that little piglet i live with eyes up my food and tries to eat it so i have to keep my eye on him!! Am i the only puggle that has weird eating habits?

Getting ready

2010-10-15T00:59:00.001-07:00

Mommy says its almost time for halloween and trick or treating! i'm a little confused though because i've already worn my costume but i guess its just practice. since we cant wear our costumes everyday mommy has been putting us in halloween shirts. Jack has two of them but the only one i get to wear says little devil. I dont think thats me at all. it must be like another costume!

jacks first parade

2010-10-10T21:30:00.000-07:00

Today jack got to be in his first parade. Mommy took me last year but since i was too afraid of all the sirens and bands she decided it was best for me to stay home. jack got to walk with a few of the members on mommy's first aid squad. she said he was a good boy but she couldnt have meant better than me. and i know i don't fit in my uniform shirt anymore but i think i look better in it than jack did. and although jack did make the home news tribune website like i did last year...they didnt put his name in it. ha ha

assigned seating

2010-10-05T12:32:00.000-07:00

Well apparently mommy was not happy that our puppy paws got the couch cushions dirty all the time. she ordered these blankets to cover the couches. they feel very soft against my puggle fur so i like them. the only thing i dont understand is why does jack have the big couch and i have the little one? i was here first!!

he's baaaaaaaaack!!!!

2010-09-30T11:34:00.000-07:00

So while jack was away it was great. it was just like old times. Just me and mommy. No one to steal my toys no one to take up my favorite spot on the bed no one to steal my attention away from mommy. then yesterday mommy went out and said she was coming back and when she did...in walked jack! Can you believe it? i thought it was going to be the mommy ollie show again. but i guess i was wrong. I guess my little brother jack is here to stay.

So long jack?

2010-09-26T15:38:00.000-07:00

Mommy said jack is going on vacation at the doctors tomorrow for 2 nights. I love going to the doctors. i'm not sure why he gets to go since i'm obviously her favorite. maybe she is sending him away because she wants to spend more time with me alone. she said i went on the same vacation when i was 6 months old but i dont remember. Oh well. i cant wait to have the house to myself and all the quality alone time with mommy!

is my brother a flying giant dog?

2010-09-17T17:02:00.001-07:00

So lately there has been some discussion in my house over who my brother jack looks like. my aunt dayna told mommy that jack looks like falcore from the movie the neverending story. i've never seen the movie but mommy said she loved it when she was younger. They say its the nose that makes them look alike. i'm not sure what they are talking about. What do you guys think?

thank you bruschi and ebby!

2010-09-11T14:52:00.001-07:00

Boy did i get a surprise in the mail today! Bruschi and Ebby sent me a birthday present! I was in the yard refusing to come in and mommy came out back and said i got mail! i was so excited i forgot that i didnt want to come in and ran straight for the present. unfortunately my little brother jack took my stuffed toy before i even saw it but mommy got it back for me. thanks guys!

my trick

2010-09-05T16:56:00.000-07:00

Mommy and i have been working hard to show you my trick it was all ready and then the camera went for a swim so mommy had to get a new one but here it is...

My birthday party!

2010-08-25T03:01:00.000-07:00

OMG i had the best 2nd birthday ever! All my aunts and uncles and friends came over to celebrate my turning two! jack and i had the best time ever. i got tons of toys and pizza and cake! Jack was so tired by the end of the party he could barely keep his eyes open. I can't wait for my third party LOL

Happy birthday to me!

2010-08-24T03:17:00.001-07:00

Today is my 2nd birthday! Mommy woke up me and jack and had my birthday presents on the table! I wasnt sure if i should choose the pig or the tug toy or the bouncy balls first! She said that today is the day an angel was born but i dont know who she is talking about becuase she always told me i'm a puggle. i think she gets confused sometimes.
Jack is already eyeing up my stuff!

Does he know its my birthday and not his?

Thank you Preston!

2010-08-20T18:19:00.000-07:00

Today was a great day! not only did my mommy FINALLY come home (more on that in a second) but i got a present from my friend preston My little brother helped me sniff it out. boy were we excited to see what it was. I got a new stuff toy, treats, and a towel to make me clean and dry when i'm dirty! thank you so much preston! As you can see Jack likes it too!

so mommy found out what a bad boy i was while she was gone. i was so upset that mommy left i misbehaved alot! luckily mommys friends who took awesome care of me were understanding and knew that i was just a sad puggle but that doesnt excuse me for chewing up uncle max's phone. sorry uncle max. I'm so happy mommy is home and now and i got a new toy in the mail! thanks preston!

puggle sitters!

2010-08-15T11:58:00.001-07:00

Mommy just told us that she is going away without us! What is she thinking? why would anyone want to leave a puggle? I have to admit i was pretty upset about it until she said that aunt vera and uncle max are going to be staying with us! we love our aunt and uncle! aunt vera is going to be a human doctor, she just got accepted to med school! so if you need a doctor look her up in about 6-7 years! mommy also said that our other friend that we love to play with tanuj might come by too! he likes to play laser with us. i love the laser! so as much as i'll miss my mommy and as long as the 5 days without her will be i'm sure we'll have tons of fun with our puggle sitters!

i dont know why she doesnt trust me to look after my litlte brother jack alone. hee hee

shopping!

2010-08-10T22:12:00.001-07:00

Today mommy took me and jack to Petsmart to get more food for me. she decided that two puggles and a 20 pound bag of food would be a lot so she put us in the shopping cart.

It was a good idea except all Jack wanted to do was get out!

I was the only good one. i sat in the cart the whole time!

scaredy jack

2010-08-05T02:31:00.000-07:00

so anyone who really knows me knows that i am not afraid of any sized dog. they laugh at me at the dog park because i dont know that i'm one of the smaller dogs. mommy always brings me on the big dog side. i play with german shepards, and labs, golden retrievers, and even have a pit bull friend. i have no fear. my brother jack....well he is another story. he is afraid of any dog that no matter what. the only dog he isnt afraid of is me lol.
this is dallas. he is an eight week old puppy he is smaller than me. jack runs away and rolls over

this is my uncle duncan. as you can see jack pretends he's lifeless so he will go away.

brotherly love

2010-07-28T21:56:00.000-07:00

well today i got in trouble. i was playing with jack and cut him right above his eye! i didn't mean to do it but mommy was not happy. as soon as i realized i was in trouble i gave my little brother kisses. mommy was worried that jack's eye was going to swell up but luckily it didn't. she put some neosporin on it and we went back to playing.

ultimate puggle fighting

2010-07-25T13:37:00.000-07:00

well its almost been two weeks since we got my little brother and boy am i tired. for some reason jack loves to play with his toys and i have to have whatever he is playing with. mommy could give me my own but i want what jack has! it usually leads to us wrestling. mommy got some of it on camera. she calls it ultimate puggle fighting. i usually win but mommy says i'm in trouble when jack gets a little bigger cause hes a tough little puggle!

prestons visit!

2010-07-18T20:57:00.000-07:00

My blogging friend preston came to see me today! i couldnt believe it when i saw him. i thought i was looking at myself. i was so shocked all i did was bark at him. i wanted him to play with me i tried and tried and tried and finally i got him to chase me. it was great! jack was a little scared of preston for some reason though. thanks so much preston for coming over to meet me. i had a blast. i could barely keep my eyes open by the time he left. i was exhausted! here are some pics!

2 puggles 1 pool

2010-07-16T11:49:00.000-07:00

Mommy decided that my little brother should be able to come in the pool too so we got him a life jacket today. hes an XS lol. he doesnt understand like i do that when youre on a raft you can stay there. as soon as mommy puts him on he swims to her. doesnt he watch me just sitting there nice and cool and relaxed. he's so silly!

My little brother jack!

2010-07-14T15:07:00.000-07:00

Ok so i guess mommy has been reading Bruschis blog too much because she decided that i needed a black puggle too! this is my little brother jack. he is 13 weeks old. he is a second generation puggle. his mommy is all black and his daddy looks just like me. jack looks black but actually has a lot or brown showing through. i like to play with him. but i dont realize he is just a puppy and i play with him like a big dog so i'm a little rough but he doesnt seem to mind. everytime jack gets a toy i want it. i steal it and run around the dining room table and then he chases me. its fun!

Staying cool

2010-07-07T16:50:00.000-07:00

Since it has been SOOO hot these days mommy let me invite some friends over to go swimming. we had so much fun. She even let me invite my girlfriend from the park anna over. she didnt like the pool as much as i do. here are some pics. look how high i jump!

Whew

2010-07-04T22:59:00.000-07:00

Thank goodness the fourth of july is over! I hate it!!!!! i had the worst few days ever. every time i heard a pop my tail went down and i started shaking. Mommy tried to make me not hear it and be sleepy with 2 benadryl but it had absolutely no effect on me. mommy felt so bad watching me sit there and shake and then i even started panting. i didnt know what to do. She was able to get these shots in before the booms started though.

beach puggle

2010-06-27T12:20:00.000-07:00

After the traumatic bee sting incident mommy and her friends took me to the dog beach and boy did i have fun! its a beach just for dogs and i made a lot of friends. i couldnt believe how many doggies were there swimming. mommy didnt think i would go i the water on my own but i did! i was a little hesitant at first but then i walked right in the water! i loved it. i was walking all around in the water and i even tried to chase the seagulls but mommy wouldnt let me off my leash so i didnt get very far. speaking of being on a leash it says clear enough for every dog to read that they must be on a leash at all times but there were lots of dogs just walking around. they kept coming up to my spot. one of them even peed on our cooler!!!!! can you believe that? my mom was really mad and their owner didnt really say they were sorry. i had a great time and cant wait til mommy takes me back again!

grown up puggle

2010-06-19T22:30:00.000-07:00

Mommy says i'm a big boy now. for the last three nights she has been leaving me out of my cage when she goes to work, and guess what??!?!?! I have been sooooo good. i havent destroyed anything. i havent even moved anything out of place that i wasnt supposed to! can you believe it. Mommy was so happy the first morning when she came home she bought me a toy. i like sleeping on her nice big bed instead of my yucky cage. on a bad note last night there was a festival in town and they had fireworks. I HATE FIREWORKS!!!! i was so scared i ran under the bed and mommy couldnt get me out. when she finally dragged me by my harness i sat there just shaking. i hate the loud noise. i dont care how pretty mommy says they are, they are evil. I know you what i'm talking about bruschi, thunder is just as bad!

thanks mr puggle!

Food Strike

2010-06-16T03:39:00.000-07:00

Mommy wanted me to ask my puggle friends if any of you guys don't eat your food like me. So i've never really been a big dog food eater. ever since i came home i never really ate twice a day like i'm supposed to. mommy puts my food out but i dont usually eat it. shes tried everything to get me to eat. she put things in my food but i'm too smart for her and just pick out the good stuff and leave the dry food. i've had iams, purina one, and just recently sciene diet. i love to eat that at grandma and grandpas house but not at my own. mommy doesnt even give me a lot of treats during the day either. i'm 30 pounds so i'm not a starving puggle but mommy worries about me sometimes. in the last two days all i've eaten were two greenies and a few cookies. what do you guys eat?

Itchy puggle

2010-06-11T03:39:00.000-07:00

A few days ago mommy found some hives on my belly and under my one arm. at first she thought they were scratches from playing like a tough boy at the park but she was wrong. now she noticed that they are raised under my arm. she cant figure it out because she hasnt given me any new foods and i havent been swimming in over a week. shes thinking i may be allergic to the grass. i dont scratch them or lick them, i wouldnt even know they were there if she wasnt always looking at them. she gives me benadryl and she is amazed that it doesnt make me the slightest bit sleepy! what other allergies do you puggles have and how long do your hives last??

i won!!!!

Bad Human

2010-06-03T14:22:00.000-07:00

I had to get my nails cut so mommy usually takes me to the place by the dog park. now normally i am a very good puggle for this process. i dont make a fuss i just let the lady do her job and then i get to go home. i'm no preston or anything, but i'm pretty good. so the lady starts shes on the third paw and i'm calm and then all of a sudden OUCH!!!!! i let out the loudest cry. mommy got so scared and a little deaf cause i yelped in her ear. the lady cut my nail too short! luckily she didnt cut my blood line but i was DONE. poor mommy was trying to hold me and i wouldnt stop squirming and i clawed her up. sorry mom. so after a few minutes i relaxed and then the human tried it again! did she think i was an idiot puggle? like i'm going to let her near my puggle paws ever again! so mommy felt bad and i got treats!!!! i got a new stuffed toy and my new love....ice pops and slurpees!!!!!

can we pleaseeeeeeeee go

2010-05-29T03:55:00.000-07:00

i love going to the park and seeing my friends. this is what i do when i see mommy get up and go into the refrigerator. as soon as i see her pull out my water jug i know its go time!

Puggle Band!

2010-05-24T21:15:00.000-07:00

mommy and her friends are always playing this thing called rockband. i dont really get it because all i hear is a bunch of noise. aunt vera and uncle andrew are always banging with these sticks that look perfectly good for chewing on, and
uncle max and tanuj have these long plastic things with buttons on them that i would love to chew off
and mommy, well she is the worst. she calls it singing but...anyway mommy decided i should try my talents out and start a puggle band. anyone want to join?

Helpful puggle

2010-05-23T12:09:00.000-07:00

Ok all you puggles out there. i need your opinion. mommy says i was a bad boy and causing trouble but i was just trying to help. what do you think?

Mommy says i was up to no good and she caught me in the act but i was simply trying to help her make the bed
Here i am just trying to help her pick out what receipe she should make next.and in this one i was just trying to help her finish her food.

she got up so i figured she was done. i didnt want it to go to waste.

Pool time!

2010-05-21T15:35:00.000-07:00

Since the weather is finally warming up today was the first day mommy let me go in the pool this year! The jury is still out whether i really like it or not. i go in it because mommy goes in and i dont like not being with her. i had to get a new life jacket this year because i outgrew my old one. i dont need it to swim but mommy makes me wear it. as you can see i'm a pretty good swimmer. mommy says i'm training for the puggle olympics!

Hard Time!

2010-05-12T22:28:00.000-07:00

Well i had my first experience in the slammer tonight. mommy brought me to work with her and when no one was looking i kept stealing. mommy warned me that i was gonna get in trouble but i didn't listen. eventually this is what happened to me. i cried and whined the whole time i was in there. it was scary Just a note to all you doggies out there...crime doesn't pay.

Puggle Mommy's Day!

2010-05-08T23:33:00.000-07:00

I know its mothers day and i just wanted to wish all you puggle mommies out there a happy mothers day! I'm sure your mommy's are the exact same way as mine. She loves me so much and spoils me. She gets me all kinds of toys even though i already have a ton and she bakes me treats and makes me frosty paws! And she always cuddles with me and gives me so many kisses. shes always telling me how much she loves me. i have to admit its a little embarrassing when she does it in public though. shhh dont tell her i told you that though. ;) but i know its easy to be so loved when you're such an angelic puggle like me!

Paging Dr Oliver Tate to surgery

2010-05-05T15:09:00.000-07:00

Today i decided to impress my mommy and show off my buddy Preston a little bit. Today when mommy woke up to check my mouth where the doggy wart was she noticed the stitch was gone. Sometime during the wee hours of the morning i showed off my surgery skills and removed it myself. All those episodes of greys anatomy finally paid off for something. I thought mommy would be happy that saved her a trip to the doctors to get it taken off and she would be proud of me but she was not. She said i have to learn how to count better. The stitch was supposed to stay there for 7-10 days and i took it out on day 5. Ooops.

so far so good

2010-05-02T18:19:00.001-07:00

Mommy is happy that i'm back to my old tricks. i wanted to show her i was feeling better so i started stealing again! she let my aunts and uncle come over last night and they let me play cards with them! mommy only made me wear that annoying cone once today and only for a little while when she stuck me in my cage. she told me if i'm a good boy and dont lick or scratch at it i wont have to put it back on. the only down side is that i'm not allowed to go to the park and see my friends. i sit in front of mommy and cry and cry but she still won't take me.

Bye Bye Puppy Wart

2010-05-01T09:29:00.000-07:00

I'm a little dopey right now but i just wanted to update everyone. Mommy took me this morning to Red Bank Veterinary Hospital to get my wart checked out. They are a wonderful animal hospital if you ever need one in Jersey. They doctors were really nice and gave me some medicine that made me really sleepy. When I woke up i was very tired and had a stupid cone on my head!!!! I get rid of my wart but get a cone. What's the deal?

Mommy said i have to wear it for a week when she's not watching me or if i start to scratch at my stitch. I sure hope it doesnt get itchy because i dont want to wear this thing all week. I'm so dopey right now mommy feels so sorry for me. I dont even want to jump up on the bed. mommy has to pick me up. And i'm even too tired to give kisses! Can you imagine a puggle that doesnt want to give kisses!

Rutgers Day

2010-04-24T20:18:00.000-07:00

Mommy is a Rutgers University Alumni so since today was Rutgers Day she decided to take me to see the animals on Cook Campus. I have never met any animals other than doggies before so it was a new experience for me. Mommy said I was very good. I barked and barked at the piggies, didn't really care about the sheep, goats, and cows. But the horse....whoa was he big! We met up with my Aunt Vera, Uncle Max, and Uncle Tanuj (i have a lot of aunts and uncles I'm very loved) There job was to keep count of how many times someone complemented me on my jeans. They said it was over 100 people. Strangers kept walking up to mommy asking if they could take my picture. I dont know what the big deal was. Everyone else was wearing jeans...why cant i?
