One Helluva a Road Trip!

Hoorah for family car rides! We had one doozie of a trip a couple of sunrises ago. She-who-feeds-me got up WAY TOO EARLY for my tastes. The sun wasn't even shining yet. She started doing really weird stuff -- her morning routine was out of whack. Next thing I know, she's loading up the car...AND ME! We're going for a CAR RIDE!!! I'm one happy pug! Next thing I know she's loading up more humans....Human #2 and the boy. Man, I hope this doesn't mean we're going to see the Old One.

I got to ride by H2. She spoils me. I get to sit whereever I want to...which is usually on her. Not sure what was up with The Boy. He insisted on snoring most of the way. I just know that H2 and I didn't have too much room to snore ourselves.

We saw lots of strange things. I think it had to do with something about where we were. The humans kept talking about this place called "Louisiana." All I know is it smelled really funny.

She-who-feeds-me made the mistake of getting out of the car and leaving the keys. HOT DOG!! I finally get to drive! Am I clear on that side?

It was a looooooong day. Didn't get to water the grass much but that was because there wasn't much grass to water. Lots of water everywhere. What's up with this place? H2 kept me happy with snacks and libations. I had lots of good snoring time butt to butt with H2.

When we finally got home, the sun was not shining...AGAIN!!! What are these humans doing to me?! Don't they know I need my beauty sleep? Pugs are delicate flowers and must be treated as such. It was nice to get in my bed but I enjoyed the car ride. It didn't take me too long to start snoring BUT SWFM kept out-snoring me all night. The nerve!!

I'm a traveling pug.

Can't wait to feel the road beneath my paws again.

Must got shopping. Maybe I can borrow the car from SWFM without her knowing. Only one problem...I can only reach the peddles OR the steering wheel...maybe Furball will go with me if I promise her extra treats.

Must go make my plan. ::evil snort::

Grumpy Furball

This has been an excellent week! I have had coffee with SWFM every day! We cuddled in the morning and took our dear sweet time before we'd go for a car ride hauling The Boy wherever he needed to go. I just LOVE routines. I miss them when she's got to go somewhere. Cuz when she's gone, I have to go in the wire box where the furballs poke me and tease me. But not this week! I've been out chasing them and barking in their ears.

Grumpy Furball just hates it when I bark. But you know, she needs to get out of my face so that won't be an issue for her. I don't know why she thinks she's got to rub ALL over me and then lay on me like I'm some sort of bean bag there just for her comfort. GEEZ!!! I get a nose full of fur every time. And get this...this furball likes to spoon with me and she's ain't even cute! Definitely a two-bagger. Heaven help me!

She doesn't know it but barking is just my way of irritating her and making her move. I'm no dumb dog! I just love it when she stomps off meowing under her breath. ::evil grin::

She did it AGAIN!

I don't believe it. She did it again. SWFM tricked me!!

After I took care of her ALL week while she was sick. I cuddled with her. Sat close and kept her warm. Gave her pug kisses that have great healing power. I even shared my food with her after she sneezed! She betrayed me. grrrrr. She's obviously feeling better.

I got all excited because she tells me we're going for a car ride. A car ride!!! YAY!!! I just <3>Guess it's like fighting a greased pig. I'll teach you for touching my feet and cutting my nails. BARK!!!

Finally, they leave. Damn! SWFM tries to make up by giving me a cookie. It's gonna take more than a cookie to make this pug happy. She takes me back to the car. YAY! And we went home. I am exhausted. That tricky human. I'm gonna have to pay more attention to what's she's up to so she doesn't do that to me again.

Oh...lookie over there! :) She's left her purse on the floor. I think I'll forget to ring the bell and just go give her purse a nice "shower".

She thinks she can fool me!

NOT! So SWFM thinks she's pretty smart. HA! I've got her trained now.

Last week SWFM took me on a wonderful car ride that ended up at the V-E-T. That wasn't nice. I thought we were out for a joy ride when lo and behold, she had an ulterior motive! I did okay at first. Showed off by prancing over to the scale and politely waiting for the intern to see how much I weighed as my tooshie was freezing on the COLD metal scale. I should have known then about how things were going to go then.

I like my V-E-T. He's a goofy guy. Talks funny. Makes on over how handsome and well-behaved I am. Of course! But...he spoke too soon! He did NOT have to put his COLD hands where he did. Those are MY personal jewels! Things are working quite well with out his COLD hands checking my private parts - thank you very much. At least he didn't make me bend over and cough like last time. It's hell getting old. Us PUGS have our dignity, you know! As if that wasn't enough, then the goofy human comes at me with a long point stick. OUCH!!! He shot me!!

I thought we were done with the humiliation at the V-E-T but NO! SWFM wants a metro-sexual pug...I had to have my nails done. GEEZ! They came at me with some new torture device that spun and buzzed and vibrated. Never again! When will those stupid humans learn -- YOU DON'T TOUCH THE FEET, HUMANS!!!

Finally, SWFM took me too the car for another car ride. NO TRICKS THIS TIME, LADY! I've got your number. I couldn't wait to get home. I knew just how to pay her back...time for a little game of "TAG". She'll find my puddle later when it's toooooooo late. SNORT!

Now I have to take medicine. SWFM thinks she has me trained. Only, it's me that's got her trained. After I secure the backyard and chase off any trespassing varmints, I sit on my foot stool. She comes to me with a snack and my meds. First she gives me a snack; then she gives me my medicine like a good human. But today, senility set in. She gave me my medicine first. WRONG!!! Get it straight human!! Food first...THEN medicine.

Geez. It's hard to find a good pet these days.

HAPPY DOG!

I am one HAPPY DOG!!! I got to go for a ride in the car today. I got to sit by She-who-feeds-me (SWFM) for most of the ride until she had to pick up the Boy. There were all sorts of 2-legged animals everywhere but none of them came and loved on me. And then there were the 4-legged animals -- they need to just stay out of my way! I saw a motorcycle. I don't like motorcycles!! Just let close to one...it will be MINE!!!! At least they'll need to wash it REALLY good after I'm finished with it. When we picked up the Boy I had to get in the back. I didn't like that. He's okay. I like the other one that comes to visit me better. After the Boy got in the car, we drove some more and he got out and I got by SWFM. I was happy! But then he got back in and back to the back I go. GRRRRRRR! There was another motorcycle. We drove again and then we stopped by some trees. Can I go say "Hi" to the trees? I need to say "Hi" really bad! YAY! The Boy got out again. I got to get by SWFM again. I <3 SWFM. HAPPY DOG!!!!! Now we're back home. What an adventure. I sleepy. Where's Boo? Lamby Poo, where are you?!

snoooooooooooooooooore!!!!
