"I told you I was sick."

Well, I'm still here. Fu Manchu got sick and died in September. We still miss him. He was the spokesdog for us when we wanted to remind Mommy to give us some treats. Now it's me, Brutus and Mr. Wong.
Next week Mom is taking us to the PetSpa for a wash and dry! It's too cold to bathe and dry at home, which is the only thing good about the cold weather.

Don't look back. Someone might be gaining on you.

Here I am at a pug picnic. Licking my chops and walking around. It was a fun day!

Today is my birthday

I am nine. Sleeping most of the day. Here is a picture of Fu Manchu.

Ebert and Wong

Mr. Wong has seen the movie Garfield: a Tale of Two Kitties. He gives it 2 paws up and he didn't even have any popcorn. Mr. Wong even liked the preview, it was for Ice Age, so mom might have to borrow that for him. We other guys don't like to sit through movies, we just want to get our paws on the remote and see what else is on and some people find that annoying so we stayed on our blanket in the kitchen during the screening. AND we got vanilla wafers which Mr. Wong didn't get.
Here is something funny about Fu Manchu: he likes to sit on top of the vacuum cleaner. When it is off of course!

Early Thanksgiving

Mom cleaned me up, which was not so bad because I knew I was going to Aint Van and Uncle Dick's. My step-grandcousins were there and they requested more pugs so Mom went home to get Mr. Wong but Fu Manchu stayed home. The guys cuddled up in our cuddle bed with us and played with us and took us out. We pugs got to sit on everyone's lap and/or tummy or feet. We don't eat human food, but the humans did. If Mommy knew how to use a camera, out pictures would be on here. Whew. Still tired.

You know you've really made it when...

Our whole family was invited to a Christmas (or whatever) party already. I or Mr. Wong will be in FLORIDA. So we can't go. I went to Florida already, did everyone know that? Mom was a little afraid the alligator would zoom up out of the lake to have me as a tasty snack, so I didn't get to explore as much as I wanted, but it was ok. She is right, I can't run very fast.

Here's a picture of me and mom at a bonfire party. I am eyeing a plate of brownies on the table. Did not get to sample them, though, I am not allowed chocolate. Luckily there are plenty of other things in the world to eat.
OK, back to my nap.
