Pugs in the news

  • Jessica Alba says that she, “didn’t look like a pug,” when she was born
  • Upset writes to an advice columnist about people who think her pug is fat
  • WKYT reports on the recovery of a Pug injured in a robbery attempt.
  • The Cincinnati Post reports on a resident with many animals, including a fawn Pug named Yoda.
  • The Pug Uglies, a street punk band release an album (not sure how you can be a tough street punk band and associate yourself with the adorable pug breed — I’d call them the Butt Uglies)
  • David Grimes reports on the Smell-o-Vision TV from Sony (we don’t need smell, we need spank-tro-vision!) and how it’d freak his pugs Satan I and Satan II out.
  • And friendly neighbors in Spokane help a man get his pug back.

Cleopatra Pug

Cleopatra PugIn today's photo, Cap’n normally enjoys dressup, but did not like our attempts to make her into Cleopatra Pug with a rubber snake. We eventually stopped, cause she’d just drop her head down and the snake would fall off.



MoPoo

GodSpelledBackwards While not Pug specific, Modern Pooch (MoPoo) rocks with their daily dog photos, including snapshots from the trailer for God Spelled Backwards. One shot includes a guy with 7, count 'em, 7 pugs!



Pugs on TV

The News Record reports on Bailey the Singing Pug. Cap'n doesn't sing (that we know of). She does watch TV though. If Cappy sees any dog on TV, she'll howl, launch at the TV, bark at it, behind it, and around it. She's just tall enough to hit the on/off switch and will turn the TV off, if we don't scold her to stop.

German PugWhen Pam was in Europe last week, she took this photo of Stefan Raab's talk show. The guest was a famous German Pug. Considering Cap'n's interest in TV and that she has her own pugcast, we're working on talk show gigs for her.

A Bone Jones

Bone ChewI realized last night that it'd been days since I'd seen Cap'n chewing on a bone. I asked her to find her boney and she gave me a puzzled look. Later, I noticed she was walking around the house looking frustrated and kept staring at me. Well, she'd forgotten where her bone was hidden and I needed to help her. So we checked a variety of hiding places and she was right there with me. Her head was next to mine, jostling for position, as we looked under the desk, chair, behind the TV, and then finally found a bone under the couch. She then proceeded to chew that bone all night, in a very determined manned. She'd been jonesing for that bone.

An amazing judge of character

David Valdes reports on his family, mother, and how his Pekinese-Pug named Bailey is an amazing judge of character.

Oscar v. Roomba

Sent in by Scott Benish, check the video of Oscar the pug v. Roomba, the robot vacumn cleaner. LJC is correct, pugs shed excessively, but I doubt Cap’n would ever not bark at a Roomba. She currently barks at most anything that makes a noise, including the ice maker, piano, the cell phone, more.
