Benny Snoring
The other day, I enjoyed a work from home day and Benny serenaded me while I worked.

Happy Gotcha Day, Luna!
8 years ago today we adopted Luna. She was two when we adopted her, so today we are celebrating her double digit milestone.
Luna is the most loyal dog I have ever met. All dogs are faithful companions, but Luna will endure anything to be with her peeps. If we are outside hanging by the pool on a summer day, Luna with be right beside us panting away. Whereas, Benny will give up on us and go in the house and wait for us to come back inside. Leave the house to get the mail? Luna will wait by the door the entire time. Get caught up talking to a neighbor while getting the mail? Luna will still be waiting by the door. Wherever her people are, that is where Luna wants to be.
And I feel the same way. Wherever I am that is where I want Luna to be. It may seem silly, but I have learned a lot about life from Luna.
Happy Gotcha Day, sweet Luna!

Farewell Friend
It is with a heavy heart that I share that long time Owned by Pugs friend Huckle (Nancy Tucker) passed away. She lost her battle with cancer last Thursday.
Nancy's sense of humor always shined through in her comments. Whether it was witty quips about Benjamin, Henry, Luna and Sol or hilarious stories about her own pugs Abbey, Gracie & Georgie. I know her presence on OBP will surely be missed.
As a true pug lover, Nancy asked that any memorials be directed to Ohio Pug Rescue. Their online donation form can be found here. If you do donate, be sure to include Nancy's (Nancy Tucker) name in the comment section so they know the donation is made in her honor.

Flashback Friday
This picture was taken in November 2004
It used to be that when we took the boys for a walk you could never keep them on the trail. They were always running off to explore. Henry was always the most guilty of this. That's how he came across a peanut butter and jelly sandwich one day. And to this day, whenever I see him stray from the beaten path, I just know he is going off to look for another pb&j sandwich.

Harrumph
Like most pugs, Benjamin, Henry and Luna despise getting their nails trimmed. A few years ago, we started using a dremmel to grind the boys' toenails. We tried using it on Luna, but she hated it even worse than the regular nail trimmers, so we still use the clippers for her.
While the boys tolerate the nail grinding they certainly don't like it. Just look at Benny's face. He could not be more perturbed.

College Try
Luna's back and neck issues keep her from going on long walks. We have been trying to find her a comfortable mode of transportation when she tires out so that she can go out with Benny and Henry. Sol, wasn't able to walk very far, but she went on every walk with us because she LOVED riding in the pouch. Luna, has never been a fan of the pouch, but now that her back is bothering her a bit more she is willing to give it another try. We used it last weekend and once she found a comfortable way to sit she seemed pretty content. We'll see if she can learn to love the pouch.
