Howie Pee Christmas Pug Wishes All His Peeps Happy Howlidays

Right after my baff

This here is Howie

I got a baff today for Christmas. Maw said I smelt like the bottom of a fish tank, and Santa wudd steer clear of my house if she didn't do somethin' pronto. She took me to see my girlfriend Nicole who adores me who gives me my baffs. Now I smell like roses, dog food, and farts. I hope all my good pug friends get visits from Pugmas Claws and get all the toys and prezzies they deserve, even AnnieSmelly.

Reality Pug TV - Howie's Live Pug Cam Video - Wild Pugs Doing Puggy Things

This here is Reality Show Pug Howie

I'm a star of my new show, Reality Pug TV. That there good lookin' pug laying in the orthopedic pug bed with two chicks is me. I'm the good lookin' one on the right. The two fat ones to the left are my sisters, Hannah and AnnieSmelly. My main man Java is there in the back, ready to do my biddin should I need a chilled beverage or the remote.

Maw and Paw hooked up the pug cam a few months ago and didn't tell me. I didn't find out about it til I got busted calling my girlfriend Pearley the other day on maws cell phone. Pearley and me we like to chat about important things, like making art out of our poo. Aye Tee and Tee got suspicious about excessive pugtexting and called maw at work one day, and that's when the turdleys hit the fan.

Now I just lay here all day, bossin my peeps, fartin on my sisters, and snoring. Tune in tomorrow for another riveting photo from the pug cam. Dad says with all this action and adventure, the pug cam is definitely not a premium channel, but what does he know. He should go back and play angry birds on his phone and mind his own bidness or somethin' already.

Dear Santa From AnnieBee

AnnieBee aka AngelicBee

Dear SantaPaws,

This here is Your Favorite Pug AnnieBee. Mommee says I have been really especially good this year, when I am sleeping. She said when I am sleeping, I am not digging the bath towels in the washroom into a pile to pee on. She says when I am sleeping I am not attacking my reflection in the oven door. She says when I am sleeping, I am not barking at her art clients who come to the house for important transactions involving square things that hang on the walls and look at me with frozen smiles on their faces while I fuss at them for not paying attention to me. She says when I am sleeping I am not trying to give my brother Howie a spankin for being annoying. And she says when I am sleeping, I am cute as a little smooshy nose bug in a rug. So as you can plainly see, I am perfect except for nine or 10 things.

So please bring me everything in the Neiman Marcus catalog 2011 this year, especially the sparkley items.

Love, AnnieBee With Kissies (and little hearts as dots over the "i's" in kissies)
PS - If you could also find a home for my foster sissy, Hannah, that would be most appreciated. This whole sharing mama's lap thing is for the birds!

Interview With Soon to Be Former Colgate Model AnnieBee

AnnieBee awaiting her teeth cleaning

This here is AnnieBee, soon to be former Colgate Model and spokespug.

I went to see Dr. Carter who adores me last week, cuz mama said I kept drooling. I told mama that feeding me more often would cure that problem, but she persisted since she is such a worry wart. Dr. Carter is a special tooth doctor with creedentials for orthodontia and he is from Alabama and he always tells everybody I'm the cutest pug he has ever seen, but who can blame him? The truth is, after mama left, Dr. Carter took seven of my teeth to add to the teeth necklace of mine he made last time I went to see him that I told yew about.

I tried to explain to his nurse that I need my pearly whites, most especially all my crooked bottom front teeth, since they are one of my endearing imperfections. *Howie rolls his eyes* But Dr. Carter insisted they were all broken and "just hanging on." I asked for some nice white veneers like Lindsey Lohan, but he thought I was joking! Then he got real worried, he told mama later, cuz he found a big pocket of infection under one of my back teeth. When I finally woke up from the sleepy juice, I had extra wrinkleys on my noggin, and everyone had to carry me around like a baby.

I enjoyed that attention, but now when I smile, all I see is gumline and my canine teefs showing! Howie said it makes me look more like a vampire, which is closer to my true nature, but mama is sad that my lip won't curl up for my signature snaggletooth smile any more. I think she's just upset that my Colgate spokespug contract could get canceled and so she can't spend money like a crazy mama any more. After all, how I can be their model any more now that I only gots a few toofs left? The worst part *baby pugs cover your ears and leave the room please* is I cannot play with any toys for TWO WEEKS. WHAT'S THAT ALL ABOUT??? *baby pugs can come back in the room now*

Howie is a Thankful Pug

I am not thankful for this hat

This here is Howie

I jest read my pal Tweedley's thankful post and it got me to thinkin about all the stuff I am thankful for. I hope all yew of my friends had a good turkey day. Sorry I am late to say that to yew, I jest woke up from a turkey coma.

I am thankful for AnnieBee when she is sleepin and not annoyin me and barkin at the TV or her reflection in the oven door.

I am thankful for my brother Java, who grows cheese on his nose shelf and taught me to run from aluminum foil.

I am thankful for my foster sissy Hannah Banana, who reminded me of the importance of barkin at inanimate objects and kicking up the lawn after markin my terry-tory.

I am thankful for the tree maw brought into the house, too, although maw sez it is not for the purpose for which I have put it to use.

What are you thankful for? If it is food related, please explain in great detail, and use a lotta adjectives.

Hannah Banana, Foster Puggy Queen and Diva in Training

Hannah Banana and Mama

This here is Hannah

I'm the official foster puggy queen at the Medina Foster Home For Wayward Pugs, where I like to bark at leafs and trees and let everypuggy know I am the boss. I like to kick the grass after I bark the perimeter, and sometimes I burst outta the doggy door just to make sure no lurkers are out and about in my yard. Mama says I am the best guard puggy she has ever met, and I can tell Howie admires me. I taught Java Cheesy how to kick the grass too, so he has been working on that new skill, in addition to his current cheese production duties. I am 7 years old and look like a little froggy when I am sitting down. I love people, and when they come to visit I like to sit on their feets so they are sure to notice me. Mama says that I sound like a froggy when I bark, since I have a paralyzed larynx, but that just adds to my overall froggy charm. I was shy when I first came to Howie's house, but not anymore! Now I crawl right into the middle of the pile at bed time and go right to sleep. My snug buddy Howie makes a great pillow, but Annie will do in a pinch. This will be my first Christmas at Howie's house. He has been braggin' about all the food he gets, but so far all I see is his special panty-cree-att-itis menu getting served to him. I can't wait to see what Santa is going to bring me! What are you getting for Christmas? Enquiring puggy minds wants to know!

I'm gonna be tootin' for the Cowboys today. Who are you tootin' for?

AnnieBee's New Ducky Jammies

My uber-cute new custom ducky jammies

This here is AnnieBee

Aunty Punchy made me some custom tailored uber cute new ducky jammies so I am wearing them proudly today. Howie made a few comments but I think it's just cuz he is jealous that he doesn't have any ducky jammies. He said that these are the types of photos that go out on the Inter-Nett and get pugs in trouble when they apply for jobs or run for important presidential offices in the future. I happen to think that this here beautiful outfit will win me votes, don't you?

Close Encounters of the Very Scary Kind

Me and the really scary pod-pug

This here is AnnieBee.

I told yew the other day I would share something really scary, but that I just could not bring myself to talk about it yet. *fans self with paw* When mommy and daddy took me shopping at my fav boutique, Dogologie, I bumped into the scariest pug I have ever seen. He kept staring at me like he wanted to take my squeaky donut or something.

Daddy thought it was funny, and kept pushing the pug toward me with his foot. I didn't like that one bit, as you can see from my distressed countenance. Howie told me later that this was undoubtedly one of them pod pugs from the Invasion of the Puggy Snatchers movie. He said that was a Pee Gee rated movie and that's why mom and dad had not let me watch it before. He said I should always check with him first so he can make sure I am aware of the scary creepy monsters in the world and be totally prepared. In exchange for this protection service, he wants two bites of my lunch tomorrow before I start in on hogging it down. What do you think? Should I share my lunch so I will have protection? I really like my lunch, so I am in a tizzy.

Pod Pug had really beady eyes, too...

I don't have all day, Maw!!!

AnnieBee's Whirlwind Texas Hill Country Shopping Tour

Elsie, me and my mom, and Mary Katherine at GAC

This here is AnnieBelly

In case you've missed me, it's cuz I've been traveling seeing my peeps. Maw and Daddy took me to The Good Art Company Gallery last weekend so mom could hammer the walls and hang square things up and talk to people who were not offering me food. I always go with mommy to these places, everyone lines up to have their picture made with me because I am irresisty bull. (Howie rolls eyes).

I wonder if they have larger bags.

I was devastated that Art Studio Dog Bob was unavailable for our much anticipated tryst, but Daddy whisked me away to the Cookie Bar at my fav boutique, Dogologie to assuage my achey breaky heart. After emptying the bottom shelves of the cookie bar, I glued myself to my full shoppy bag, which Daddy held just out of my reach for the excruciatingly long 2 minute walk to my limousine.

On the way home, mommy fed me five iced cookies in my fav colors. I attended to a nice chewy tendon in between massacreing three new toy squeakers. With the exception of not getting to bump noses with Bob, this was just about the most satisfactory trip I have ever taken to Freddyburg, especially since it was just me, and I got to leave the boys at home out of the public eye, where they belong.

Except for one terrifying awful encounter I will have to tell you about later, because right now I don't even want to remember it. Just envision Freddy Kruger meets JasonPuggy in a dark alley, and maybe you will get an idea.

Anticipation is way, way over-rated.

Oo la la! Howard Pee PoofyPants Goes French!

Howard's new beret is tres chic, no?

This here ess Meester Howie

Today I have gone French with my new beret from Aunty Jessica of All You Need Is Pug! Magnifique, yes? er, no? My brother Java Fromage and sister Annie Smellee are so jealous of my new hat. How do you say "jump in the lake" in French? hmmm? *twirls hypothetical mustachio*

She Sleeps in Beauty

Her majesty rests from a day of toils...

She Sleeps in Beauty, With Bunny

She sleeps in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

(With apologies to Lord Byron)

GIMME!

GImmEEEE!
(Photo for DFW Pug Rescue by Gary Edwards)

This here is Howie

My maw went to Pugapalooza last weekend and left me at home with Java and Annie. She said that I would jest be digging through people's bags for treats the whole time, so I could not go and enjoy this event where there was food. Have you ever heard such hooey in your life?

This here puggy in the picture is not related to me, but surely we have some common DNA cuz this puggy is saying GIMMEEEE that hot dog dad. It's what I wudda said, had I had the opportoonitty to be at pugapalooza. Instead, I was stuck here with Annie and Java. Did I say that alreddy? Anyway, they did raise lots of money for them rescue puggies, which is a good thing. It wudda been a better thing if'n I had been there to halp. Don't yew agree?

Your good pal, PeeMan

Howard Pee Pugpantsez Thirsty Thursday

Howie Hittin' the Bottle

This here is Howie

Dad let me walk to the mailbox with him yes-turd-day to get the mail and it was a long walk. I got real thursty, so I gotta drink. It was a long walk (did I say that alreddy?), about fourteen hunnert steps from the front door down the driveway to the mailbox, cuz I had to stop along the way and check my Tree In Front Yard. It had been all winter since I picked up my mail so yew can imagine it took me a while. I had to read some, reply, read some more, reply. I asked Maw to gimme a sausage when I got back in and she said NO HOWIEE. NO NO NO. Have you ever heard of such hooey? Can somepuggy please mail me a sausage? This special diet is for the birds, and yew know how I feel about birds.

Pee Ess, in case Hanklin was wondering, we was clean outta PBR so I hadta have water. Sheesh. I tell ya what.

Wordless Wednesday With Her Stuffie

Toilet Paper Tuesday and Tiffy Tippy Toes

Caught in the act!

This here is Howie

I jest want to say fur the record that the aforementioned criminal act involving toilet paper was commenced because of circumstances beyond my control. Maw packed up Tiffy my foster sister and sent her home with Aunty Michele to live the life of luxury in Illinois on Sunday. Aunty Michele forgot to put me in the car before she and Unky Gerry drove away to a land where they grow lots of food and there are two refrigerators in the house. (I don't know that last part for sure, but I spect it is correct cuz Angel Stubs tole me so).

Now Tiffy's got her own blog, more clothes than my sister AnnieSmelly, and gets to go everywhere all the time no matter what, meeting her peeps and getting patted and adored. In the meantime, I am locked up in Medina Orphanage Where Howie Lives, out of the public eye, with my brother Java and the little fatty AnnieBelly whom I already mentioned but I don't want to talk about again. I am in a bad mood today, so I decided to cheer myself up with some indoor recreational activities. Since Maw has blocked off the leather ottoman in the living room, I found this other activity to fill up my schedule. I'm gonna pout the rest of the afternoon, so you might want to read Tiffy's new blog. After that, please package up some steaks and potatoes and send them to me pronto. Write on the box real big HOWEE COMFURT FOOD, ANNIE KEEPS YOUR PAWS OFF!!!

It's Tiffy Time!

Emmitt - The Singing Angel

Emmitt, Heaven's Newest Angel

Emmitt with his mom and dad, Melissa and Fred
www.pugnotes.com

Emmitt is singing his special happy song in heaven today. He has joined all of the angels that have gone before, so there was quite a crowd of his adoring fans waiting at the pearley gates when he arrived. Melissa said that Emmitt has his very own Easy Bake Oven in heaven, and he has been making delicious meatloafs all day and sending them to his pug friends. That is just like Emmitt, always thinking of others, just like his sweet mom. We will never forget you Emmitt, you will be in our hearts forever.

Sweater Day for StubbyPug

The Puggy Fetty Circle of Love honoring Stubby

This here is Howie - We are 2 days late, but I insisted maw get to work on my blog to honor my good pal, Stubby, who has gone to heaven where the buffet is open 24-7 and everypuggy recycles. The closest thing to recycling that I do is to be related to a sister who eats all the garbage every chance she gets. Thanks to Winston puggy for telling us about this.

This one is for you StubbyMan! We love you guy, and hope you are watching over us.

Howard's natural gas investment strategies pay off big time

This here is Natural Gas Tycoon Howie

I wanted to share my latest news post for your admiration. I decided to invest one of my talents in a earth friendly manner and struck it rich! Please send food packages in lieu of fan mail. Cuteypugs like Pearley and Tan Gi Linn may send kisses, in addition to food packages.

While yew are at it, please click on the link and give my maw a vote if you are on Facebook. She is in the running for favorite artist at her gallery in Freddy-burg, Texas, where Annie has visited several times but they have been advised to not allow me in the front door.

Dear Big Guy, Please Take Good Care of My Pal Stubby

CelebrityPug Stubby

looking all GQ

Dear Big Guy in the Sky:

This here is Howie. Not so long ago, one of my hero-pugs, Stubby, came to visit and he shared all his tips with me on making the ladies adore him, how to avoid sharing at dinnertime, and how to get extra scratchies and love by making cute faces at the mama. Just a few days ago, my maw said that Stubby went to heaven to be with you and my sister Winnie Wiggles. Even though I am extra super busy barking at planes that invade my back yard airspace and my nap schedule is demandin', I wanted to get you this important Stubby Instructional List pronto. Please don't skip any of these items, as Stubs was a pretty good boy and probably the worst thing he ever did was have me the bad boy Howie as his friend.

Stubby gets to have his own Popeye's Franchise, with 24 hour buffet access and keys to the fried chicken warehouse out back.

Stubby gets to snuggle next to my sister Winnifred on the softest cloud, all the other boys will have to wait their turn. She is real good at face washin, so this will keep him extra clean.

Stubby gets unlimited access to the special message dream tube to send kisses and love downstairs every night to his mama Michele. He will be needing to use this an extra lot for a while right now.

Stubby gets his own little motor cart with a horn that is loud and obnoxious so he can toodle around the clouds and not be late to any of the important eating activities. I hear there is a lot of eating up there, and my boy Stubs liked his kibble!

Most of all, please give my pal Stubby some extra hugs for his maw, Michele. Stubby sure had a way with the ladies, they all adored him, so all of the ladies are really missing him now, most especially his mama. Thank you, Big Guy in the Sky, for letting me meet Mister Stubs. Someday I hope to be half the puggy he was.

Yours Truly,

Howard Pee Pugpants

on his best behavior.

This is me, Howie, with my

good pal StubbyPug and his
mom, Michele, who I would
like to trade my maw for
