It takes a lot to keep this kisser looking soft and sweet. I have adopted a nightly routine that I feel is best for maintaining puckerability - I use FOOD flavored lip balm.

It all started one evening when Mommy was getting ready for bed. The last thing she did was put some stuff on her lips. She said it was to keep her lips soft. Well of course, I KNEW that putting something to the LIPS meant FOOD!

So like any self-respecting PUG, I began to BEG. Not a little, either. I am a little embarrassed to say HOW outta control my begging became but suffice it to say - it was not my finest moment.

After a couple of episodes like that, Mommy began to put some on her fingers and then rubbed it on my lips. They felt WONDERFUL! They SMELLED fruity! They TASTED - a little weird . . . kinda waxy, kinda fruity BUT overall good!

So the next time Mommy went to the T store, she picked me up some lip balm of my own! This is what she found.

I am ONE LUCKY PUG!!!!
