The Pug Party 2008



A couple of weeks ago we went to the Puggerfest. We have so much fun! There were over fifty (closer to 70) pugs running around loose. What's wonderful is that the dogs do not get into fights, in fact, they don't even bark! I think they know that they are with their own kind. They just run around, sniffing and getting any attention they can. When you sit down, immediately there are at least three pugs vying for a good scratch. Penny seemed to be a little overwhelmed with the whole thing, as she was last year. She wouldn't stray too far from one of us, and her tail was uncurled a lot of the day. I'm sure she was in sensory overload! What was interesting was there was a pug there that looked just like Penny. Normally you can tell other pugs apart from Penny, but this one you couldn't. Here's Allen holding the two of them:

Lauren wants a black pug. She wants a boy and name it Hagrid, after the character in Harry Potter. She sought out the black pugs to hug on, and some came to her.

We all had a great time and enjoyed being surrounded by pugs! Penny participated in the costume contest and got a fancy collar. Here she is on the way home, all dressed up.
