Mom's Back to Work

Vacation's over and Mom's back to work. That means we sleep all day so we can be wide awake and full of energy when she gets home! No more school vacations until April so March will be a LONG month. Even the cats are sick of winter this year. They're just hanging around waiting for spring when there'll be a few bugs around for them to chase.

1/2 Vacation Gone!

Mom's a little depressed because 1/2 of her vacation week is gone already. I told her she should be happy because she still has 1/2 left! I think I cheered her up.


Big news! I finally had a successful nail trimming session after so many stressful attempts. I've blocked it out but Mom said she and Dad were absolutely unable to hold me still to cut my nails. They ordered an $80 gadget off the internet which I was supposed to actually tolerate, but that was almost worse. When we went to the groomers a few times it took 3 people to hold me still and I cried and made Mom and Dad so scared and sad they had let my nails grow for about 6 months! Well, Mom made an appointment at the vet's office, Homestead Animal Hospital, and Kelly and Julie cut my nails with no trouble at all! Mommy just stood there the whole time kissing me to distract me, Julie held on to me, and Kelly cut my nails without a single drop of blood! THANK YOU KELLY AND JULIE!



Here's a picture of Chrissy checking out my new pedicure when I got home. She said Mom can do a home pedicure on her because she doesn't get scared and is able to hold still. Wish I could do that too - maybe when I'm all grown up? Anyway, we're so happy to have found a stress-free way to get my nails done. Oh, the simple pleasures of life!


By the way, here's a cute photo of Joanna, the newest addition to our household. She used to live with Mom's BFF Donna, and she had some puppies at Donna's house. Now, she's all through having puppies, and she's going to be spade and live with us forever! I love her! She's almost as nosy as I am!

Waiting for Spring

When I see the sun shining like it is today I have EXTREME spring fever! Here's a photo of my sisters Emma and Chrissy out in our pen this past summer. All of that soft green grass is covered with hard, slippery ice right now. I can't wait to take walks over to the pond with Mommy. We can sit in the swing and watch for frogs!

Welcome

Welcome to my very first blog posting. My Mom has been reading lots of fun Pug posts for a while now and decided we should have our own! My name is Roscoe and I am head pug around here - I'm also the only pug here. I share my home with Emma (a shitzhu), Chrissy (a long-haired chihuahua), Joanna (a short-haired chihuahua), Sable (greyhound/lab mix), Charlie and Bailey (my Mom says they're cats!), Petey (the conure) and lots of fish that Emma is crazy about. Oh, and Mom and Dad too.
