It's been a very long time..

So a lot has happened since i started this blog for Sitka. It was just something fun and cool for me to do, but life got busy for us and I let it slide. 

Her "dad", the one that HAD to have a pug, had always wanted a pug, left her behind with me when he told me over the phone (yes, after 12+ years of marriage) that he was leaving. That was 2017. It was the best thing that could've happened to me, honestly. He also left behind 3 other dogs -Jackson, Homer and Cooper. I have since met someone absolutely amazing and we've been together over 3 years. 

On July 20, 2019, Sitka crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. Her back legs weren't working very well anymore and she was unable to control her bladder or bowel movements. My bossy little diva just wasn't herself anymore, and she let me know she was ready. 

My mom, my biggest cheerleader and Sitka's biggest fan (besides me!), passed away on June 9, 2021. I miss her every single day, but I know that Sitka was waiting for her Granny to give her kisses and take her spot in her lap. 

I had debated on taking the blog down, but I've decided to keep it, so I can look back and remember the tiny little girl that made me fall in love with pugs, and all dogs. She was truly the best dog I could've asked for. Homer is older now, so I'm sure it won't be long until I have to make another tough decision. 😢

Wow!

Momma is a BAD momma! She hasn't had time to help me post on my blog for awhile, but she said let's do it today - so here I is!

Well, all kinds of pug stuff going on...

We've moved! We live in North Carolina now. Not sure what that means, or where it is, I just know that we have our very own back yard now. It's a lot of fun!!

Homer and I also have a new brother. His name is Jackson, and he's a pit bull we adopted from someone in South Carolina. He had a really bad start to life, but mommy says he'll have a great one, now. We're not really sure what to think of him. He's not pug size, and since he's a puppy, he plays kinda rough and stuff. He gets excited. Bully breeds have to have a lot of exercise, unlike us pugs. But we all sleep together at night and love each other.

Well, that's about it for news stuff. Daddy will be deploying again soon, which is why momma started this blog in the first place. So, hopefully school won't keep her too busy and she can post stuff for us. Homer has his own blog, too... but he hasn't posted yet!!

Licks & Pug Hugs!!

So, a friend of my mom's rescued some really cute puppies... and then they came down with Parvo. =( The rescue she pulled them for doesn't have any funds to help pay for this and she's left to foot the bill all by herself. PLEASE, PLEASE help!!!

Well, mommy stayed super busy this summer with her French class. But, she taught me a few words, too! I'm not a good typer, tho. So, have to wait...

There's some very sad news in the doggy world today. One of the Michael Vick dogs, Sweet Jasmine, better known as the cover doggy on Sports Illustrated, was hit by a car and killed yesterday. The poster pup for pit bulls. Mommy was really sad, too.

RIP Sweet Jasmine
Mommy, me and Homer are really glad you got a bunch of love after what you went through and that you got to be a D-O-G. Nuttin' better.

Wow! I can't believe how long it's been since I posted... sorry about that (mom says sorry, too, since she has to help me). Mom goes is still going to that school thing. I don't know why! It seems like a lot of work, and me? I'd rather sleep and eat! Oh... and poo.

My brother, Homer... he's gotten SO BIG! He's as tall as me!! And he's got really long legs, too. Mom said she might look into some agility training for him... but he's a scaredy cat!!!! He's afraid of thunder, fireworks, any loud noise. Not me!! I'm not afraid!! Mom says that we're just like kids (those small 2-legged things). You get one that's great (doesn't cry or whine a lot, not nurrodic?) and then you get one that's all of those things.

We've just been playing with our mommy and daddy, who gets to be home a whole lot more - and I love it!! It's not been too hot, so we get to go on more walks, too. Mom says she's going to get Homer a blog, too, so he can write stuff. But he's so stupid, what's he gonna write about?!?

Hope everyone is having a great summer so far!! I'll make mom help me post again soon.

Aren't we some cutie pugs?

Well, guess what?

Daddy surprised mommy AND me last night... and brought me home a new little brother. I've been a little protective of mommy & daddy since he got here, but they make sure they're giving me loving, too... so I'm starting to do better.

I'm not sure what to think of him yet, but I have been babysitting him. I think he's awful adorable. Here's a picture daddy took of us last night...
