Big Stretch

Big Stretch

Luna is Queen of the big stretch. After she has been sitting or sleeping for a bit, she will stand up, stretch her front paws out and lean back with her butt in the air just like in the photo. If she was really relaxing, after she stretches out her front paws, she will stretch out her back legs and lean forward holding her head high. Then she is thoroughly warmed up and ready to keep the boys in line.

These are my favorite! I love it when they do this. My two do it ALL the time, even our Maltese-Shitzu does it. And the sounds they make when they do it are so cute.
If I want to be in shape to corral the boys I have to do my warmups.
I love this! My Roxy does it sometimes, but I have never been able to get a picture of it. Little Luna is doing her yoga poses; just way too cute!
I was thinking yoga too…hehehehe…Luna, that looks like it feels sooooo good. My boys do it too and it always reminds me I should be stretching more…
We can add this to our long list of things we’ve learned from pugs: it’s important to stretch—and it feels good, too!
whole new meaning to the “down dog"pose in yoga… maybe it was taken from them in the first place!!
...The other night, Mr. Skittles was scratching at a plastic tub that I have christmas things in, my husband said.. what is wrong with him, why is he sooo interested in that tub? lol I reply.. his christmas treats are in there!! Looks like I have to find a better hiding spot!
Have a good weekend everyone… last weekend before christmas, happy shopping, wrapping and all!!
Luna is definitely a “Pug Yoga Master”-she is doing ‘down dog’!I miss yoga-maybe a good new years resolution-get into pug-ercising! Have a great week-end all!!!
Doin’ the “big pug fretchie” (as it’s known to C.J. and Toeby!) I love to scratch them right above their tails when they do that!
sue s—That’s a great idea! I have tried to get the boys to get on the treadmill with me and they don’t want any part of it!!!
I love the stretch and then they stretch one leg straight back and then do the other one.
It’s so cute!
Gus leans on me to do his stretches, paws on my thighs and then he does the same thing that Luna is doing.
Usually with a yawn though!
My baby girl, Rukia, always does that!
Not that it’s a stretch, but Mr. Beefy will do what I call a Commando Crawl - he lays down on the floor, belly down, and crawls around the floor, pushing with his hind legs and pulling with his front legs. Kind of like a soldier doing a belly crawl. Too funny!!
Oooh, that looks like it feels GOOD!!!
We need to see that cute stretch from the back view. Nothing cuter than a pug’s butt.
I wish you and your sweet pugs a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year. Greetings
