The Tongue

This picture is dedicated to two of my best pals, Suki, and Winston. For Suki, because she wanted to see more of my handsome face, and for Winston, because he claims that a pug with his tongue hanging out is undignified. Now I ask you, is there anything at all undignified about this picture? I think not!

It Was The Vet

Well, the car ride that Gidget and I were all excited about turned out to be a trip to the V-E-T. We were pretty bummed. We were really hoping for a trip to the dog park. But on the other paw, a trip to the V-E-T usually means a trip to Doggy Haven is going to follow. So at least we had something fun to look forward to. But unfortunately, now that trip is in jeopardy, thanks to my dumb sister.

She is going to be so mad when she finds out I told everydoggie this, but hey, what does she expect? I'm her little brother, so I have no choice. Gidget has roundworm. She claims she probably got it from a toilet seat, but I have my doubts. And now she is so worried what everydoggie is going to think of her. Especially Goodboy Norman Featherstone, who she has a huge crush on. And she is also worried about how this will affect her standing in The Canine Divas Group, which she was recently invited to join on Dogster.

All I'm worried about is how this is going to affect my playtime. We now won't be going to any meetups for at least a month. And as I said before, our trip to Doggy Haven is also in question. Fortunately, that isn't until the end of May, so hopefully she will be all better by then. Although I think it is going to take a lot longer to repair her ego.

Spring Break

After Last Weeks "Biggest Dog In The World" snafu, we felt it would be best if we took a few days off to collect our thoughts and get our heads together. So we decided to take a spring break. We didn't get to go anywhere though, we just hung out at home and lounged on the couch. Hmmm, come to think of it, that sounds like a pretty normal work week for us after all. Oh well, here's some pictures of what we did on our spring break.

We played with a new toy. Well, Duke did anyway.

We sniffed each others butts.

We peed on things. Well, Duke did anyway.

We ate.

And we slept. A lot.

OK, so I guess it wasn't the most exciting spring break ever. But we enjoyed it. And it was good that we were able to rest up, cause I heard a rumor we might be going on a car ride later in the week. That means either a trip to Doggy Haven, a pug meetup, or a trip to the v-e-t. Boy, I sure hope it's not the last one.

We've Been Punk'd

Apparently, somebody played a little joke on Duke & Gidget. In our previous post, we showed a picture of a dog named Hercules, purported to be the worlds largest dog. Since we received that picture in an email, we figured it had to be true. But then we got a few comments questioning the validity of the picture. After doing a little research, it appears we have been Punk'd. I guess a little research goes a long way. And just to make us feel a little stupider, apparently the dog pictured isn't even the same breed as the story claimed. Boy, some dog experts we are. So we would like to apologize for our indiscretion, and in the future we will be sure to check our sources better.

And if you are wondering, we can guarantee that the second picture is definitely NOT photoshopped. That one is 100% Duke's real tongue. But we still feel stupid.

Hercules

This is Hercules, The World's Biggest Dog Ever according to Guinness World Records. Oh, in case you are wondering, he is the one on the far right in this picture. Hercules is an English Mastiff and he has a 38 inch neck and weighs 282 pounds. That is one Big Doggy! I can just imagine how much food he gets. Probably a whole lot more than I do. Lucky guy. But anyway, yeah he's big and all, but remember, you shouldn't judge a dog by how big he is, you should judge him by the length of his tongue.

Who's The Boss?

Gidget's last post made it sound as though she was the alpha in this house. I found that quite laughable. And I'd like to assure everydoggy that I am quite clearly still in charge around here. And if anydoggy doubts that, I have included this picture of me looking all tough. You want a piece of that? I think not. And just to remind Gidget of my superiority, I will now go and pee on her. I hope everydoggy has a great weekend!

Tuff Old Girl

I am a year older than Duke. That also means that I am a year (at least) wiser than Duke. Because of that, I have learned a couple of things that Duke hasn't. Probably the most valuable thing that I have learned is that as long as Daddy is nearby, I can pretty much do anything to Duke that I want, without fear of retribution.

Take last night for example. I was sitting in Daddy's lap, happily enjoying my Blue Dog Bakery treat, when Duke made a near-fatal mistake. He jumped right up into Daddy's lap, and started crowding my space. This was completely unacceptable of course, so I turned around and tried to bite off the side of his face. Duke never saw it coming.
Before he could react, Daddy got in between us, pushed Duke off the chair, and held me back. I was acting all tough, like I wanted to jump down and go after him, but in reality, I was satisfied that I had made my point. I have a feeling Duke will think twice before he tries something like that again. But then again, maybe he hasn't learned his lesson yet. If that's the case, I will have no problem schooling him again if I have to.

Happy Easter

The Easter Bunny came this morning! Duke is pretty bummed about it though. He doesn't understand how a giant bunny got in the house without him hearing it. Oh well, at least we got some pretty cool gifts!

We each got new outfits! Mine is a pretty pink Easter outfit, and Duke's is a camouflage muscle shirt that says "Tuff Dog". I think it should say "Thinks he's a Tuff Dog". hehehe

I think my new outfit is quite festive.

Here is Duke with another one of our Easter gifts. It is a squeaky sneaker. I think Daddy is hoping Duke will quit trying to eat his real sneakers.

Me without "our" new toy.....

And Duke with "our" new toy. Anybody see a trend here?

Oh and we also got a new doormat for the back porch. It looks like a big bone. Anybody want to bet on how long until Duke eats it?

So all in all it was a very nice Easter. We hope all our buddies out there had nice Easters too.

Cryin' And Whinin'

Gidget is such a weirdo. Whenever she gets a big treat, she walks around with it hanging out her mouth, crying like a baby. It's like she feels bad about eating it or something. Mom and Dad think it's so cute. I just think she is wacko.

Do any of our doggy buddies out there do this too? Or is Gidget the only weirdo who does this?

Birthday Card

This is a birthday card that our Dad got from our buddy Jay. We thought it was pretty funny so we decided to post it. If you can't tell, it's a Pug copying his butt. Sounds like good times to us!

Happy Birthday Dad!

Kong Overboard

This is a video of me trying to get some kind of frozen meat-like substance out of my Kong. Personally, I don't understand why Mommy & Daddy have to torment me like this. It would be so much easier if they just gave me the meat-like substance on a plate.



Daddy did go and retrieve my Kong for me after it fell into the garden. But then, of course, Duke ended up stealing it from me and eating all the meat-like substance. It was a lot easier for him because he has a mutant tongue. Daddy saw this and gave me my very own Jumbone. So I guess the story ended up having a happy ending after all. It sure is good being a spoiled pug!
