Me and Santa

Here's a souvenir of my visit with Santa. He was very pleased with me and promised to leave a big bone biscuit in my stocking. I think I love Santa!!!

 

I'm a stinker, don't tell Santa...

Tomorrow I am going to visit with Santa at PetSmart and get my picture taken with him. To prepare for my visit, I took a bath this week so that I am super-beautiful. I need all the help I can get. Mom said that Santa might be upset at me; my Dad is. The problem is that I get up in the middle of the night (before 3 a.m.) and I don't go back to sleep until Mom leaves for work. So this means that Dad has to stay with me until Mom gets up. And Mom ends up having to get up before her alarm goes off because I'm going around the house barking like crazy because I want my Momma. And I want tons of treats because I love treats! Alfred does too but I'm a much better beggar.

Mom told Dad that she has to figure out a way of training me to sleep all night long, but I don't know if she can tame a stubborn pug like me...

I love PugFest

Yes I do, yes I do! Where else are there treats all over the ground? And everyone is offering treats? And people think that I'm super-cute (well, I am anyway!)?

Here I am at PugFest chewing on a doggy toothbrush.

Unfortunately, you cannot see the picture on my blog because it is copyrighted, but you can go visit the Smug Mug website and look at all the cute pugs and other dogs.

And since you asked so profusely, here's an old picture of moi taking a beauty nap:

*Yawn*

 

My new pillow sure is comfy. And stylish, too!

It's a lot of work being this cute!!!

 

My Mom can tell you all about it. She gives me baths and uses organic soap and shampoo!!! I know, she's a little bit crazy. But I know she does it because she loves me very much. Plus, she must be doing something right because my coat is all glossy.

And everyone at the Farmer's Market says that I am cute and adorable. Alfred is too, of course...

Finally, I am shot...

Well, not really! I meant I got all my shots this Monday. Isn't that cool? And I even got my tag and everything. And my doctor said that I look GRRRREEEEAAT!!! She was very impressed with my progress. Here's for some good news: she told me that I only weigh 13 lbs so there is plenty of room for more treats in my diet. I told that to my mom and she said "Dream on, Stella!!!" I replied "But MOM!" But she still said no more treats than what I already get. That means I get a treat after my medicine, when my parents go to work, and when I go pee-pee or potty outside. That's it! I think that I deserve more opportunities for treats. I need to start working on that.

Toodles,
Stella

It's August already?!?

Well my fans, I must confess that the lazy days of summer sure make me lazy... My mom has been working very hard and she has not been able to help me with the typing on my blog. She has been taking some really nice pictures of me but we have not been able to post them yet--it's that summer thing...

However, I do have awesome news. I have been seizure free for more than two months now. My poor brother Alfred had a tiny seizure a few weeks ago but he's not on medication. Speaking of medication, I don't like it that much but Mom makes me take it every day, twice a day! Why she must follow all these silly rules, I am not sure; but I am feeling better these days.

A few weeks ago, we pug-sat Olive the Pug for a week and a half. In the beginning Olive was a bit hyper but at the end she was very relaxed. She and Alfred walked really well together and I supervised from above, since Mom always carries me on the Pet-a-roo carrier. I think all our neighbors probably thought Mom was crazy and she was hoarding pugs, but we don't mind having a crazy Mom because she loves us very much.

Take care my fans!
