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

OMP, what a beautiful memory of these three. What a fabulous time that was and I can understand how you miss that. As an OBP fan I miss those times. This video made me laugh and cry at the same time. #LoveToBenny&Looney;, #LoveToTrooperHenry
Love this! Such a sweet look back in time.
I loved watching this with a big smile I love Luna with her bark my gang started to bark along with her
😢❤️😜🐶🐶🐶💜
oh WOW!!! too cute, and so much playful energy!
Oh mi gosh! Love this video. Brought a tear to my eyes watching all three running and playing. Sweet!

Oh my gosh…thanks for sharing this video. This totally made my day.
I think Luna is saying “Fight, fight, fight!” She seems to be trying to get something going! We have watched this video over and over. It is so great and funny. The pictures, usually of three pugs lounging around, never gave indication of this level of wildness!
So many things to love in this video! For me, there’s nothing in this world that is as fun to watch as young pugs at play! (Or as I used to call it when Bennie was a young pug,
“Pugs Gone Wild”!)
They were sweet and happy days! And that what this video is, sweet and happy ♥♥♥♥♥
Thanks for sharing this.
Reminds me of my two, Nick and Nora.
When Nora would run “Benny style”, we would tell her she had the “Puppy Crazies”. This just made her run even more!
Nick would then join in and we would have “Puppy Crazies” all over the backyard!
(sigh, sure miss those Pugbutts)
That was great…I love it when they do the mad pug run as we call it! So much fun watching them play:)
I love that butt tuck that Beny has. They were having so much fun…seems like yesterday. Thanks for sharing.
What a great memory of them playing, so cute! Thank you for sharing.
What great memories! Luna was sure insistent with her barking “PLAY WITH ME!” Thanks for the memories, I never saw this video, so it was new to me.
What fun for the threesome. Nice seeing them again.
*crying*
Can’t stop watching.
Love and miss these babies!!!
That trio = Soul Pugs
Crying, smiling, laughing, missing them so.
Love you Puggers forever!!!

There is just something that is so fun to watch fur babies at play. Pug hugs from pastor sue & the Colorado 2
Seeing comment on this blog Monday morning I just had to go back and watch those fabulous 3 in action. How things change, but how sweet the memory of them and the ungranted wish they were all back here.
Wow, not only do I love your pugs, but it’s a wonderful reflection on how much these little bundles of happiness bring to our lives. Here’s a question to everyone: I am retired and have MS which now demands the use of a cane. My precious pug has now been gone for about four years, but I’m still missing a part of my heart (this blog keeps me semi-tuned into the pug love). Should I get another???
Elizabeth I thik it would be a great idea to rescue another pug there are so many needing homes and a rescue will match you with the right one for you
There are pug rescues out there who will be more than willing to help you get pug right for you and your needs. Go for it.
Hi Elizabeth, I agree I think a rescue that would be appropriate for your health situation could help you to feel better. Pug hugs from pastor sue & the Colorado 2
