Property Rules

I got in trouble yesterday. I was playing with my baby and accidentally waved it front of Lincoln's face. Lincoln grabbed my toy right out of my mouth. It was completely unfair. So I lunged, growled and bit him in the face. We were not even playing bitey face. Mommy snapped around and swatted me on my butt and I heard the dreaded word....NO. I pouted. Lincoln got my baby and I got in trouble. So courtesy of the internet, I have found some property rules that I can live with. I plan on giving Lincoln a copy of these...

Minnie Moo's Property Rules...

1) If I like it, it's mine.
2) If it's in my mouth, it's mine.
3) If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.
4) If I can take it from you, it's mine.
5) If it's mine, it must never appear to be yours.
6) If it just looks like mine, it's mine.
7) If I saw it first, it's mine.
8) If it's edible, it's mine.
9) If you have something and put it down, it's mine.
10) If I chew something up, all the pieces are mine.
11) If I get tired of it, it's yours.
12) If I want it back ,it's mine.

Frito Face = Bath Time

So I love bath time. Periodically, I just jump in the shower uninvited but really, people should make sure the bathroom door is shut tighter. Last night, Lincoln and I both got baths. I got one because I have "Frito" face and Lincoln had to get a medicated one for all his allergy scabs. Lincoln went first and made a big stink about it. He can really be a baby about getting a bath. He jumped out and Mommy and Daddy had to chase him around like a slick hog. Then it was my turn, per usual I had a blast. I even pretended the water was a fierce foe that needed to be attacked. I can be scrappy when I need to be...and really it is all about smelling nice. After I smell nice, I get a little rowdy. I start whining, barking and chasing Lincoln around until he has to hide from me. Bath time just makes me so excited!

Where is Summer?

I got my party summer dress on, I'm ready to get a tan. The only problem is, summer seems to have disappeared. I woke up cuddling with the Mommy to Lincoln pacing back and forth over my head. So as our usual routine, we got up and went outside so Lincoln could pee on every sign, bush and non-moving object for twenty minutes. (Thank you, I will stick to either peeing in the house or on a pee pad.) Except it was raining and 50 degrees. So I refused to walk. In fact, I had Mommy carry me. Lincoln trudged ahead like he was forging another Oregon Trail. So all I wanna know is where did summer go?

Baby, the Pug Toy

Yesterday, some people wondered about my puggy toy, Baby that I was sleeping with. She's a tiny pug, just like me. Baby was a present from my Daddy. Originally, Mommy was worried about letting me have such a toy, since it is really a toy for children. It had hard eyes, nose and made a barking noise. After much discussion, it was decided I could have Baby under close supervision. The first thing I did was, with true love in my heart, destroy most of her face. The barking noise, along with the eyes and nose was too much of a temptation. I loved the barking noise, every time I accidentally set it off, I would give her a big kiss. However, the barking noise was in one of her ears and I couldn't help but chew it out. Thankfully, Mommy didn't let me swallow it or I might have an extra barker...hehe



Now Baby is the perfect toy, since there are no pieces left for me to swallow and I love her just the same.





The only problem is, Lincoln wants Baby too. Why is it when you have an awesome toy, every other dog in the world wants it too?!





Bitey face time again!!!!!

Lincoln the Spaz Pug

My big brother Lincoln is a spaz. He walks in circles when he's on a leash until him and I are both tangled up. When Mommy comes home, he cries and jumps on her repeatedly. No matter what he eats, he never gets fat. He's like an Olympian, he can jump all the way to the back of the couch and then balance. Lincoln sometimes won't even eat his breakfast, he will turn his head. Furthermore, he has perfectly straight teeth?! What kind of pug is he?! Doesn't he know that anytime they put food in front of you, you should eat it as fast as possible?

That's Lincoln in the picture up above, Mommy says he has a teddy bear face. I can't believe he has a real nose though. When I was a wee wee little puppy, I had to have a nose surgery because I could barely breathe. The vet said I was a "mouth breather." Hehe but Lincoln he almost has a muzzle. The vet says he's all puggy though. Mommy would like me to mention that Lincoln is just an "evolved" pug without the weight and nose issues. I still say Lincoln is a spaz.

Monday Mash-Up

Sometimes I'm a gangster pug. If I knew any puggy rhymes I would try to rap for you this morning. Unfortunately, I can't rap, I can only look cool trying ;)

Playing with babies

The other night, Lincoln and I went to visit Grandma, which we do a couple of nights a week. When we were visiting, Shannon, Mommy's cousin and Grandma's niece, came over to visit. She has two babies, Silas (who is 2) and Savannah (who is 7 months). Essentially, they are around Lincoln and I's ages so it is always great fun when we get together. The great thing about being around a 2 year old is that they always feed you. Or drop food. Or want to play.

 Lincoln caught onto the food thing a lot quicker than I did.  Mommy thinks he was around kids before he came to live with us forever.  You can see me trying to catch up and get in on this food action...

 Silas, likes to eat.  Just like us pugs.  But he also liked to share.  Which is great for us pugs.

(Mommy says to forgive the poor quality of this photo, Savannah and I were both moving at the same time.) 

I was fascinated by Savannah trying to crawl...

 But the best part of the evening was when Silas got out all of his toys to play with...

 Lincoln and I thought it was Christmas.  Who knew, plastic little Star Wars guys were so much fun to chew on?!  Lincoln and I split a guy....

He was delicious, until we tore him apart.  Then Mommy took him away.  Forever.  It was very sad. And finally, because Mommy says everyone loves babies and Savannah is as chubby as a pug.....

I still want to point out, that I'm a baby too!

Whip Worms...What?!

Oh Lincoln Loo Loo...he just can't catch a break. His tummy has been upset since he came back from Angus' house but mommy figured it was because he was upset over being left. However, he kept getting sick and he started biting himself again. So yesterday, mommy decided it had been long enough for Lincoln to feel better and they went to the vet.

I got jealous. Even though I was chilling with daddy, I refused to play or even look at him. I kept my eye on the door. Waiting patiently.

Anyway, supposedly Lincoln got a lot of attention at the vet. First, he gassed the place, pretty much clearing out the waiting room. Then he had an accident on the floor. But I would like to point out that Lincoln did try to warn everyone with the gas. Finally, he saw the vet and she said he has an ear infection, allergies and whip worms! Whip, What?! He gets all kinds of treats right now so he will take his medicine...I can't help it, I'm still jealous. Even though I don't want little worms or an ear infection or allergies...I just want the treats.

And that's when the fight started

Sometimes Lincoln is just minding his own business...


And I realize, "hey, why am I not getting my picture taken?!" So I jump on top and try to pose like Lincoln...


Which starts a puggy fight....


"Lincoln, I'm the cute baby!"


"I will bite your face!"

Game Face On

So today starts the UK football tailgating season. Mommy said she would take us except the possibility of rain, people feeding us because we are adorable and have to keep us leashed the entire time around all those cars. First off, I love rain. Water is pretty much my best friend (I will have to post my swimming video sometime). Secondly, people feeding me because I am adorable?! How is that a problem? Honestly? And third, it is not me that would have to be leashed...it's Lincoln. Sometimes he gets a little excited and starts prancing in every direction like a show pony.

Despite not getting to go tailgating, mommy did take some pictures of us in our coordinating outfits. Enjoy :)
A view from the top...



Lincoln posing...



I'm a cheerleader, can't you tell? Rah Rah!



Once again, Lincoln trying to upstage me with his perfect little poses...



Lincoln ruining the picture with his yawn...hehe but I still think it is cute!



Finally, sweet, angelic pugs :)



Go UK!

We might need a car seat...

I love the car. Car rides mean I get to go places. Visit people. People give me treats and cookies. When it was just me, I always rode in mommy's lap. She whined a little but anytime she put me in my carrier, I would furiously scratch until she let me out. This was all good until Lincoln came along. He doesn't fit in my pink carrier and he hates to be alone. So now we fight to both sit in mommy's lap. Together....



Mommy keeps worrying that all this "sharing" is going to cause a wreck. I don't know anything about wrecks, but I might flat out refuse if she makes me ride a car seat.

Notice, I still get the prime spot of looking out the window. If I don't sit in a lap, I can't reach to see outside. It's really a simple concept of why I should be the one allowed to sit in the lap.

Angus

Sooooo mommy went on vacation and didn't keep up with the blogging. Lincoln and I went to our friend, Angus's house, for FIVE WHOLE DAYS. We had lots of fun doing pug stuff.

This is Angus, he's pretty awesome. He even has an extra row of teeth. I think that makes him extra awesome.



This is Lincoln, Angus and I sleeping on our babysitter.



This is me, waking up before everyone else, ready to party :)Notice Lincoln still passed out in the background.



While Lincoln and I had lots of fun, I was really happy to see my mommy again. There really is no place like home.
