I AM Princess of THE . . .

So, what do you think I won a ribbon for THIS year?

 That's right -
CURLIEST TAIL

Second Year in a ROW!

Positively Pugoween

On my way to PUGOWEEN

Every year this rescue group called PugSavers (out of Sacramento) hosts a Halloween fete for pugs and pug mixes. It is a lot of fun even though the drive is LONG (at LEAST one hour from our house).

What is most fun about this event is the chance to meet up with our BESTEST pug pals and their families. We all live kinda distant from each other so every chance we get to visit is PRIME TIME.

In attendance were: ME, Bellatrix, Spencer B, Zoey and Phoebe, Beebe and Brady.

Hi Spencer B's Grandpa -
Got ANYTHING for us?

My partner in crime, Bellatrix, and I made to rounds begging for anything we could get. Usually this was pizza because that was what EVERYONE BUT US PUGS had for lunch. Note how I am WHISPERING in Belli's ear about something I have observed. She countered with a HEAD BUTT to let me know she agreed.

Then our Mommys broke it up.


I think there might have been close to a MILLION pugs in attendance. Every where I looked there was a pug and a few mixes. We all sniffed hello, a few played. I think mostly we just drank water (it was a very warm day) and BEGGED.

Towards the end of the play time was the HALLOWEEN COSTUME contest. It was broken down into 6 categories:

• Boys Bought
• Boys Homemade
• Girls Bought
• Girls Homemade
• Group Bought Group Homemade

None of us won anything but here are a couple of pics from our group:

Beebee was Glinda the Good Witch. I didn't get a picture of Brady because he dashed away. He was a handsome gallant with a black cape. 

 That FUNNY girl Bellatrix was a Fallen Angel. Considering she does NOT like to wear clothing of ANY KIND, she was a trooper. I think she looked great and deserved a participation award.

Zoey was a Captain Hook and Phoebe was Tinker Belle. Their clever Mommy made their clothes from some BABY CLOTHES! Didn't she do a fantastic job?

I PUGsonally think they deserved to win one of the homemade costumes: either individual or group. But shockingly they did not.

Neither did I! It seems the judges had a hard time thinking of me as a girl considering my costume -

Like I have said before and I will keep saying - NO ONE SAID ALL STORM TROOPERS ARE BOYS!

Here are the winners for homemade and store bought costumes:

Pirate crew - best Group Home made

Wizard of Oz crew - best Group
Store bought

Space man - best Boy Homemade

Pug Shot - this is Bailey. I am pretty
sure I lost to her last year -
best Girl Home Made

BUT I DID WIN SOMETHING! Check back tomorrow to find out what I won.

REMEMBER: This is the last day to enter my MADLIBS contest. Check out my October 16th post for information.

PAWty PUGS

Once we FINALLY FOUND Pug-O-Ween, I immediately searched out my Peeps 'n' Pups - Bellatrix and Mom, Zoey, Phoebe and Mom, Spencer B, his Mom and her PAWrents. I met them all at Bellatrix's birthday PAWty and immediately considered them the bestest ever. So I was very happy to hang at the Halloween fete with them. We sniffed and gossiped a little before heading out on adventures.

For Wordless Wednesday, then, I am going to present to my Blogville Audience a GALLERY OF MY PALS:

 This is my Bestie Bellatrix. She is a funny pug with a wonderful Mommy who I like a lot. I gave her an ear nibble - I reserve those for SPECIAL peeps.

This is Spencer B, Bellatrix's hunny bunny. I have to agree that he is very handsome and suave. What you cannot tell from this picture is that he is TWICE my size!!!! I tried to stand next to him for comparison but his grandpa was calling me ;-)

Zoey (front) and Phoebe (rear) are a mother and daughter duo! They are two senior pals but I like them a lot. They are wearing neck scarves from PugPros Halloween PAWty the weekend before Pug-O-Ween. (I couldn't go cuz my Mommy #2 was working.)

WE SHARED SHADE with two other pugs who none of us knew until THAT DAY!

 This is Brady. He was a BIG boy but nice. He has a wonderful toothy smile. He was a hippy love pug for the contest. Suits him.

This is BB. She is not as old as some people thought - 7 or so. But she was FAIR FURRED and her ears were nearly white. Prematurely grey or just original coloring - I don't know. She also had a winning smile, don't you think? And those ORBS!!! Serious Bellatrix competition!!!!!
