Oh Bennie, I would love to land a big kiss on your wrinkles! You are such a handsome boy.

This is as picture of pure content slumber.  Seeing this picture I am sure all OBP fans are ready to smother Benny with kisses.

Edible wrinkles that Benny. Smothering you in smooches is a must beautiful Ben!!!

What a Wonderland of Wrinkles are you, Sir Ben!  A guy can’t get too many kisses, can he?  You are Simply Irresistable!!
Great weekend for everyone.  Sounds like Denver’s dumpage is heading to Iowa - so will have to get out Bella’s snow boots and my shovel.
Snowed in for the Super Bowl - sounds like a plan.

How could you NOT kiss those wrinkles?  Benny-bag-o-wrinkles is such a fitting name.

Smooches pooches.

so many wrinkles how could you not want to smother him in kisses
Took my Cuddles to the vet this mourning and left him there for a few hours his meds are not working this time and my poor baby is coughing so much they are going to nubilize think I spelt it wrong sure hope this works he is so miserable
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend

sue, so sorry to hear meds are not working.  I hope the nebulizer treatment works.  I lit a candle at Mass for your Cuddles and all the babies who are sick, injured, abused, neglected and lost.  Hope Cuddles gets much needed relief.

Pug hugs to all in OBPland.  I won’t watch Super Bowl, but hope you who do enjoy the game, and your team wins, even though they both can’t win and I know there will be fans for each team.

Oh Benny. You look simply delish! I would love to smooch your head!

Sue ~ prayers for Cuddles immediately! Please keep us updated!

Sue VDB ~ You are the sweetest person ever. I love how you comfort everyone here with your words. God Bless you Sue!

We are supposed to get a lot snow in Omaha. Not sure what Bella will think. We are dog sitting our little doxie girl Susie Dog. Bella and her are sleeping in their beds in the dining room room here. So sweet.

Pug Hugs to all from Bella, Susie Dog & me.

Benny looks so content! zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Sue: Many prayers to you and your Cuddles. Hugs to all the Pugs and an extra one to Cuddles especially.

Benny, glad to hear you stoicly handle the curse of the kissable face. Prayers for Cuddles. Bugsy is looking forward to a visit from Penny this weekend. It will be nice to have 2 pugs in the house again for a bit. Have a blessed weekend, y’all!

sue:  Want to add my prayers for Cuddles, as well.  Speedy feel-better, little sweetie.

Even his back wrinkles.

Marynell, “curse of the kissable face.”  Perfect.

Cuddles has many pug hugs and love and prayers from all of OBPland going his way as we wait for updates on his condition.  Surely the vets can help ease his poor little body from the awful coughing.  Blessings on you little man.

Oh Benny you are so wonderful i’d love to cuddle with you to kisses to you my boy.

Love all the puggie wrinkles!

Drools and licks,
Minnie and Mack

I wanted to give you a up date on Cuddles I went to pick him up yesterday afternoon he seemed a little better but by last night he was coughing so bad the vet still wants him to take his meds and put him on valium to calm him I am nervous about this I fully trust my vet but don’t like the idea of it she told me he has a severe collasped trechea I just want him to feel better

Oh Sue…extra prayers for Cuddles now. And for you. I know it sounds scary but if you are comfortable with your vet, trust him or her. God Bless you and please keep us updated.

sue, I am so sorry to hear this about Cuddles, but I am with Gina, please follow your vet’s instructions.  It may not be comfortable for you, but it will be for Cuddles.  I have Cuddles on my prayer list, and the candle at church is still going.

Sue: I feel so bad about Cuddles and I am sorry for you. How old is Cuddles?
Quincy, my beloved black Pug now passed, was operated on for just this. It was a major operation but it helped him tremendously. He was 6 years old when he had the operation. He was in the intensive care unit for a few days.

Sue, did the vet mention surgery Gina is right, if you trust your vet then she will have Cuddles best interests in her heart and know what to do.

Many, many prayers for you and for Cuddles.

Huckle: I forgot to thank you for your suggestion about the noisey soda cans to keep Ruby Claire off the sofa. Although the cans work, the noise scared her so badly I felt like a bad Pug-mama. I rearranged all the furniture so the sofa is up against a wall and in a corner. A few less pillows around it now. Nothing we won’t do for our darlings.

I wanted to give you another up date on Cuddles I took him back to the vets on saturday and he had another nebulizer treatment then she gave him a steroid shot I also got the valium for him he did pretty good saturday night a big difference but this mourning woke up to the bad coughing so he got all his meds and he is doing ok he does have his bouts but much better from last week my vet never mentioned surgery but did tell me he will have episodes like this for the rest of his life which scares the heck out of me he had a bad one last september and seem to be doing fine till last wednesday Cuddles is around 9 or 10 I was fostering him for pug rescue then adopted him he is just about blind has very little vision he is my cuddle bugand my shadow has to follow me everywhere I go I am so thankful to have OBP family to talk to I just get so stressed out when one of my babies is not feeling wll even my vet keeps telling me I need to calm down

sue, you are doing everything you can right now. Just keep him as comfortable as you can, and we are all praying and/or sending good thoughts for Cuddles.  You might ask your vet if anything else can be done for him.  I know it is stressful, but you do have to keep calm for him because they are smart and pick up on stress.  ((((((sue/Cuddles))))))

Sue,

  Praying for Cuddles…at time it is hard to “relax” when our Pug babies aren’t feeling well but we do the best we can.  We all know our pugs so well that we know when they aren’t feeling up to par.  Love and prayers to you and Cuddles.

sue:  Hate to hear of the hard time your Cuddles (and you) have been having.  You definitely have all of our thoughts and prayers for him to get much better really soon.  It’s just terribly hard to have your little buddy upset and not feeling well - but you are doing everything recommended by your vet.  St. Francis:  Please stay extra close to Cuddles for comfort and to guide him safely to a good recovery.
