Pugs are Polarizing

Have you ever noticed that there are pug people and non-pug people? From my vantage point, there is no in-between. You either LOVE PUGS or you simply DON'T.

Next time you are at a doggy (or kitty) play date, take note of the HUMAN behavior - especially if there is a PUG present. I am sure that you attend these once in a while.

In my experience, I have found that there are those who will SQUEAL (yes, I mean really squeal) with delight whenever I walk in the gate. And these same people will try to spirit me over to their laps (sometimes with treats . . . they always ask Mommy first). Once I am there, they FAWN over my soft fur, stroke and smell my velvety ears, and COO over my liquidy brown eyes. They cannot get enough of me.

Then there are the OTHER humans who kind of wrinkle up their noses when I come by (Hey! I smell like a DOG and not a like a beauty shop [Molly] maven). They lift their feet if I come walking around them AND they ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS start making a HUGE todo about Molly.

Now I am not saying that ALL non-pug owned people are the pug haters. Not at all! There are many DOG PEOPLE who happen to have other kinds of dogs and ALSO think PUGS RULE! Really. Those are my kinda people. They just love canines of all kinds and see the CUTENESS that is PUG.

It is just that there are those other HUMANS who just don't like pugs - no way around it. And I respect their right to not like PUGS. They are the ones who miss out.

Pugs are kind of like the BUTTAH of the pet world. They add that extra OOMPH to life.

Friday Wrap Up

So a lot went down this week, doncha think? What with the WORDS and Mr. JOBS. I was laying in my COMFY PLACE (crate) thinking about it all and trying to put it in perspective. What, you say, could that BE, Noodles?

Well, I guess I will share with you my FRIDAY WRAP UP of the World From A BOWL of NOODLES.

Monday and Tuesday
We concluded that in general PETS RULE. Like WE didn't already know this . . . but once in a while I think our humans need to be reminded just how special we are. Well, okay, maybe not OUR humans but others . . . non pet owners, pet haters, and those who mistreat animals because they think it is FUN. A PET, ALL of us, brings such joy to our families and communities. Our love is unconditional and our willingness to obey can be bought with a treat. All in all, the world is a much better place with PETS. Along those lines, we said hello to a few new fosters who I hope will all find their forever FAMILIES real soon.

Wednesday
Word games. I loves loves LOVES me some word games although usually my Mommys don't realize I am playing a WORD game with them when I yip and grumble PLAYFULLY. They GET IT cuz they laugh and gesture at me as I am supposedly acting silly. Nah, Mommy, it's just my WORDS. So I posted a word game to play and many of you joined in the fun

Noodles - SHOCK
Stewie -  SHOOK
Payton -  SPOOK (Thinking of PUG-O-Ween?)
Anonymous -  SMOCK
Slimmers - STOCK (cuz that's what their Daddy does)
Benny & Lily - Stuffie (say what???)
Sid - SPORK, SHACK
Marlene - STORK (Her mommy is having an ALIEN in 32 days)
Luna - STARK
Frankie Furter - SHARK (my fave hockey team)
DW - SPARK
Tweedles was confused
Hayley didn't play but said she LOVED word games

Also Wednesday I BLOGged for BOWLS to help feed orphan pets. I hope we earned a lot of bowls of food.

Thursday
Master of the Universe, Steve Jobs died (I really am not being irreverent just clever). He changed our world (some would argue for the worse but I don't think so) and patterned a way of thinking that only a few ever have. He told graduates to go out and experience life. He told consumers that music and messages can go with us anywhere. For us pugs - well he created another way our PROUD HUMANS can carry MILLIONS of adorable pictures of us everywhere.

Friday
Here we are at the end of the week and life goes on. For me I see a WALK or two in my future . . . a nice BIG bowl of FOOD and some SNACKS (PUH-leez!!!) . . . and a snuggle BETWEEN my MOMMYS. Life is good - let's take the time to SAVOR IT!
