New Year’s Resolutions
Shortly after eating all their Christmas treats Benjamin, Henry & Luna racked their brains and came up with a few things they are willing to work on for a few weeks in January and then forget all about.
The boys have come up with a joint resolution. They have decided to learn more about how screens work. Currently, they are unaware that liquids can pass through screens, so whenever they lift their leg to pee on the screen they are always surprised to find pee pee on the other side. So, the boys are resolved to learning all about how liquids can pass through screens, how to recognize a screen and how to not pee on screens.
Luna's resolution came to her when we were walking at one of our favorite parks earlier this week. We were strolling along and Luna stopped to smell something in the grass and before we knew it she was rolling around like a wild woman in the grass. When she flipped herself over, she was covered in a yellow-greenish goop. If I wasn't too busy gagging over the smell, I would have taken a picture to share with everyone.
So we hurried home and Luna went straight to the tub for a bath. She wreaked and getting her wet only made her smell worse. Lucky for us, whatever Luna was covered in came off with her regular dog shampoo and with a double wash she was as good as new. But, since the experience required a bath, Luna has resolved not to roll around in crazy smells she finds on the grass.
We'll see how long the pugs are able to keep their resolutions. I hope you have better luck with your resolutions.

Too funny! Our Violet used to relish rolling around on dried earthworms on the sidewalks!! It was crazy. I’m sure they’ll forget all about their good intentions when the next screen/ good smell comes along.
