Sol has definitely gotten used to things around here & over the last 3-4 months so much more of her personality has emerged. And let me just tell you, this girl is full of personality. The more I get to know her, the more I imagine she was much like Benjamin in her younger days. During her bursts of playfulness she bounces around very much like Benny.
Another thing that reminds me of Benny is her affinity for pillows. Lucky for her, Benny throws a few pillows on the floor each day. It is very funny to watch her push, scratch & dig to get the pillows just how she likes them. Some days are easier than others because the pillows land flat, but other days it is a lot of work for the little girl to get everything just how she likes it.
When Sol first came here she would not share a pillow or dog bed with any of the other pugs. If a bed she wanted to lay on was occupied by another pug, she would find another spot. If one of the pugs came and snuggled up on a pillow she was using she would walk away. It was plain to see that she was an only dog in her previous home. Now, however, she is getting used to having brothers & sisters. It took awhile, but she is coming around.
The pugs all got baths yesterday and after their time in the tub each one of the pugs was pretty fired up. For once, I managed to get a video of Sol playing. I simultaneously shot the video and played with Sol so the camea is a little all over the place. The game - catch the camera. You'll see she came close a few times.
Not bad, but I think the old timer needs bigger ears to really be able to pull off the look. Also, can you tell how perturbed she is that I stopped petting her to take a picture? She would appreciate it if I got my priorities in line.
