Flashback Friday 05/01/2007

We have an app on our phones that will show photos and videos in a memory timeline. So, it basically says, on this day 1 year ago or 3 years ago or 10 years ago, this is what happened in photographic history. We open each day and review and there are some that are just eh and then there are some that really hit home. Since the blog is more about the now and not so much about history, we tend not to share this type of stuff (not to mention the fact that we've probably already shared it in real time years ago).

Anyway, this video popped up for us on May 1st and had the date of May 1, 2007 (8 years ago). To us, this was truly pug life as we remember best. This video, while about 90 seconds long, shows all the classic moments rolled up into one scene. Note to reader: This was pre-Solsey and we do not mean to exclude her and perhaps when something pops up that really strikes a cord that shows the dynamics of when they were the Fab 4 then we will again reflect, but this highlight reel seems most like the bulk of our pug life.

Here are the key moments that we would like to point out:

• Benny outruns everyone like a wild man
• Luna is being her feisty self (if you listen closely, her yaps in sequence of three almost can literally be heard as the chant, "Play with me! Play with me!"
• Henry preferring to roll in the grass but then the other 2 gang up on him to encourage him to play (but Henry is being wise in using his time to recuperate)
• Benny biting Henry's ankles
• Benny getting frustrated in the end that Henry doesn't chase him, so Benny humps Henry
• Benny running so fast his tail uncurls

Sidenote: Mimo is freshly planted and Benjamin runs over it like it does not even exist (since to him, it indeed does not yet exist)

Overall---Happy, healthy, lively pugs with all their working parts
