Pug Duties

One of Benjamin's duties as a pug is to supervise the weekly dog food prep. On weeks when I have to cook the turkey the process takes quite a bit of time and it can be quite exhausting to a pug. So Benny, always picks one of the black rugs to take a little cat nap on while I slave away. Unfortunately, the rugs are all positioned in front of places that I need access to while I'm working. One is in front of the stove, one in front of the fridge and one in front of the sink.
So, I tried a little experiment, and I moved one of Benny's dog beds into the kitchen to see if he would monitor me from there. Worked like a charm!

As you can see Benjamin is pretty bored by the whole process. His feedback is that I need to cut the prep time by 99% and give him half of the prepped food as soon as it is done being prepared.

Benny is in the bed Sleighbelle had. She loved it. As for the food prep: yeah, mom, get a move on and go faster!!
I have to ask Corrine how do you keep the black rugs feom being covered in pug fur
Brilliant! Benny, you are so smart. Tell your Mom to “get a move on!” like Sleighbelle said!
Benny,
You are the smartest dog alive! If you trip your human while they do food prep, then all those nom-noms are for you!
Smooches,
Jenna
I think Benny is so generous with his time and expertise to help in the food prep! And just think, he’s experienced in both quality control AND research and development!
Plus I love the expression on his handsome face as he reclines in that bed!
Well, Corinne, I think you’re lucky. Not only do I have Lucy parked right in front of my prep counter & stove while I make their food every few weeks (you’re right, it’s a long & exhausting process!) I also have her company for EVERY meal I prepare. I can’t tell you how many times I have to say, “Lucy, move.” during the preparation of every meal. She might move for a minute but as soon as I step away to the sink or trash can she goes right back to her post!
Bennie is one smart pug!!!! Sure his Mom will drop a taste just for him!
If NOT turn her into the Pug POLICE!!!! After all Pugs want to eat ALL THE TIME!!!
So good to see that Baby Benny is ON THE JOB!! Too cute!
Miss Corinne,
Your kitchen is spotless and beautiful!
oh yes i have those supervisors as well need to follow directions carefully lol.
