We were looking to do something fun last Saturday night, but it was a bit too hot out. So, we decided to take Henry on an air conditioned adventure to the pet store. Henry seems to enjoy these outings because there is so much for him to smell. As such, his favorite section is the dog food isle, with the fish department coming in a close second. I'm not really sure what his fascination with the fish is all about, but it is a least fun for us to watch him smelling about.
As for me, no trip to the pet store would be complete without moseying on over to browse the dog beds. This particular store has a whole wall of dog beds. The dog bed section is a total snooze fest for Henry. When I asked him for his thoughts on a particular bed, he gave me a look to let me know that he was about to stage an intervention.

Henry is always looking for an adventure and with the weather already being too hot to take long walks we are becoming quite creative when thinking up new adventures for him. It seems he has become the official errand pug. His most recent errand has been gassing up the car. He really seems to enjoy this errand as he is ever so curious about the other people at the gas station. That or he is just looking for the person that gives out treats. Because whenever he goes to the bank or through the drive thru he always scores a treat. I think he is still trying to figure out the gas station adventure.

From the looks of it, you might think that we run a tight ship around here and insist that the pugs line up in size order - smallest to tallest.
While this doesn't happen frequently, I have caught them in this order before. I wonder if one of them has OCD or something.

We bought a new duvet for the bed and no sooner did we put it on the bed, Luna and Henry were wanting to get up on the bed to check out their new threads. They sniffed around a bit, but then settled in giving it their seal of approval.
Since the pugs sleep on the bed, we have always opted for a duvet over a comforter because it is so much easer to wash. And with 3 pugs sleeping in the bed, let me tell you, that duvet gets a lot of washing!

The other day Henry wanted to get up on the big people bed even though it wasn't bedtime. (I guess he just wanted to be near his "people" because I was putzing around the bedroom---putting clean clothes away, placing shoes that had been left around the house back in their proper place, etc)
I noticed how the light from the lamp caught his "no eye" while making his eye seem very sparkly. He put on a puppy face that I have not seen in a while and I was fortunate to capture that moment in time. He has been a much happier boy since having his stinky eye removed. He's adjusting well and this really shows that he is just as handsome as ever.
Who needs a second eye anyway? Not Hank! He's a one eyed winky wonder.

The other day, I decided to take Henry outside and give him one more chance to potty before I left for work. It was a gorgeous morning and the sun was shining bright. I was feeling optimistic, when Henry quickly trotted down the driveway and started smelling the tree. Then he turned away and plopped right down in the sun. He had no intention of budging, until he got his morning dose of vitamin D.

As soon as the lawn mower stops, the pugs pitch a fit to be let outside to inspect the freshly cut grass. Once we finish with all the cleanup we let them out. With all the fuss they raised wanting to be let out, you'd think they would be happy to lay in the freshly cut grass, but most of the time they wander right out of our yard to our neighbors and hang out in their longer grass. Go figure! But, on this occasion, they all took a moment to enjoy the fruits of our labor.
