Howie's Got a Date

Puddin Pop

This here is Howie

I gotta take a bath and brush my teeth cuz I've got a date on Sunday. Don't get jealous Pearley Pants, k? Puddin Pop has got her own wheels so she'll be cruisin over to meet me, the handsome PeeMan. She's bringing along a cameraman who is gonna get film of her tooling around my yard and being adored. Puddin is one of the cuties from Dallas Fort Worth Pug Rescue, that web site I like to look at every day. Maw insists this Web site is not my own personal dating service, but I just can't help but admire the cuteys there, over 120 foster pugs right now! So there are bound to be some lovely ladies in the bunch.

Puddin Pop came to rescue at age 7, and could not walk very well, so a bunch of nice peeps who love pugs donated money to pug rescue to buy her these cool new wheels.

I'll let you know how it goes. Hide your eyes Pearley!

AnnieBelly's Latest Acquisition

AnnieBelly breaks in her latest acquisition.


This here is AnnieBelly

I was perusin' lovely bloggies today and happen to read an important story about Aunt Josie's new sock monkey bed from Walgreens. Lo and behold I realized I don't got no sock monkey bed! *Annie stomps paw and steam comes outta her ears*

As soon as I informed my secretary she grabbed her car keys and went to Walgreen to correct this terrible oversight. Did she come home with the proper sock monkey I had ordered? Nope. But she did find this fluffy puppy dog bed and said I should give it a try. I carried it up and down the hall and then I chewed on its eyeballs and then I shook it till the seams rattled, kinda like I do Howie when he is particular annoyin.

I do love my puppy dog bed, it's nice and it's....it's.....zzzzz....zzzzzzzzzz

Aunt Josie and Her Sock Monkey Bed

Tanner Marlow, Private Eye Puggy, Meets Howie

This here is Howie.

I got a new foster brother this week named Tanner. Maw sez he is real well behaved, but I'm taking care of that problem as quickly as I can. I already taught him how to get rowdy and bark at mealtime, pee on the deck instead of in the yard, and how to steal Annie's toys just cuz it annoys her.

I've got a list of about twenty thousand other important Howie Tricks of the Trade to work on with him, so I hope he sticks around fur a while. Tanner used to have his own harem in a place called Oklahoma where they made baby pugs like marshmallows on an assembly line. He got his first bite of cheese ever in his whole life yesterday, and his eyes got all buggy. I told him if he tells me how he broke outta that jail up there, I'd tell him which drawer the cheese is stored in. Here's his story:

Tanner Marlow, CIA

Tanner Marlow, Private Eye Pug.

You have undoubtedly heard of me. I escaped from Abu Growl prison in Marlow, Oklahoma, last week with the assistance of my contacts in the DFW Pug Rescue organization. My covert deep underground sources had tapped out a puggy SOS and lo and behold, the famous rescue peeps came with their capes and tights and PugOWeen T shirts and got us all out of a bad situation.

I was the stud puggy in Marlow with my own harem, but foster mom says I am currently the only pug in her household who does not pee indoors or misbehave. I do enjoy scratches and pats and lovey dovey looks from ladies, but I'm just a little afraid of men. My foster dad and I get along just fine, though, especially after he offered me a bowl of stew with meaty muffin sauce. I am about 7 years old and will be wanting to relocate my headquarters soon.

If you would like to hire me to be your official furever puggy, please fill out an adoption application for Tanner Marlow. You'd better hurry, though, with my smile and sparkling personality, I won't be looking for new digs long!

Howie Not Amused by Annie's Prezzie

Howie Waking Up From Tooth Surgery

Annie's Gift to Howie

This here is Howie

I went to see Dr. Carter this morning about my teefs and he said it looked great. I have no idea why AnnieSmelly thinks I need dentures. Somepuggy needs to explain to her this is not funny. Just cuz Dr. Carter was wearing a six foot long necklace of all my teeth when I arrived at the clinic this morning is no reason to assume I don't got not teeth. I happen to have just enough teeth left to bite somepuggy on her fat behind if she don't watch out.

I'm just sayin.

The yellow goes nicely here, but you

might want to rethink the greenery mom.

Howard - did you pee on this????

Who, me? I hates it when Annie is in charge. Sheesh.

AnnieBee Travels to FreddyBurg

This here is Annie - mom and dad took me to FreddyBurg last week. We left
the stinky boys at home, out of the public eye, where they belong.

This is my Dad, he carries me around and does my bidding.
He's a big guy, but, trust me, he's wrapped around my littlest pinky toe.

This is me thinking what it would be like to be a city dog like
my heart-throb Bajas. I think I could get used to the bright lights!

One should always peruse potential purchases carefully in order
to assess how they will fit into the current AnnieBee Collections.

I arrived at mommy's art show in Freddyburg fashionably late
and was adored by all my peeps. I take my job as Activity
Director at Flower Mound Art Studio very seriously.

Did you really think I would leave the store without a toy? Daddy had to
pick me up and run me over the scanner because I refused to release
this acquisition for checkout. Can you blame me? He SQUEEAKSSS!!

Howie Goes Camo

Howard goes camo....

Mom, There Must Be Some Mistake

I should be wearing the white hat. I believe
this here color belongs to Howie Mom!

Annie is Glad Bajas Adores Her!

My Valentine's Card from Bajas

He made this one, too, obvious

evidence he adores me!!!!

Dear Bajas my honey pot puggy from way across the world:

Thank you for the lovely Valentine's cards. I am blowing you kisses from across Texas and the big ole pond all the way to you! Would you believe my mommy had the nerve to leave town on Valentine's day, knowing that I was bound to have important packages arriving on the uber holiday of LOVE??? *steam comes out of Annie's ears*

I gave her forgivey kisses in exchange for second brekkies.

Thank you again cuteypie!
xoxoxo

Ruby the Divine Dachshund In

Her Best Faux Fur in Pink

Hi Puggy Peeps - this here is AnnieBelly! *blows kisses*

I loaned my fav faux furs to my weeniepal Ruby last week and doesn't she look divine. She wanted to borrow my matching 38 carat pink diamond but a gal's gotta draw the line somewhere, right? I mean the sparkleys belong to Annie and I'm just not real good at sharing the good stuff. Anyhoo, say howdy to my pal RubyKins! She bosses around her brother Rocky and her two lab brothers, too, who live in terror of her very presence. See why I admire her so???

Wordless Wednesday

Remembering Winnie Wiggles - Heaven's Jiggliest Angel

Winnie Wiggles, Howard's Big Sister

Photo taken Oct 21, 2007

Today is the second anniversary of the death of the little heartbeat at my feet, Winnifred Wigglepants. She was my velcro pug and my love, and I miss her every moment of every day.

This is her diary entry on dogster the day she passed:

Winnie died this morning very early while she was in the care of the tech at the ICU. I think she was very tired. She was my brave girl and was such a big part of our lives. Please say a prayer that she is comforted now.

She loves breakfast-time so much. I hope that she is enjoying scrambley egg and a bowl of delicious kibble this morning and making the angels laugh with her roo roo roo morning song and breakfast time spinning.

Who will wash Howie's face now? Who will sit on my feet when I am on the 'puter? Who will keep dad company in the kitchen when he is cooking? Our little one with such a big heart is gone, and it all happened so quickly and unexpectedly.

We were so blessed to have her with us for just 2 short years. What an extraordinary little dog she was.

I told her last night it was okay to go - she was sitting up in her oxygen cage at the ICU for 2 days, waiting for me. She always sat and waited for me. The moment she laid down was when she passed.

Please hug your babies for me today and say a prayer for angel Winnie. She was cherished.

Heavenly Missive - Tribute to Wiggles

Whippy creme and scrambled eggs are

Way up here in Heaven

In case you too

See only blue and wonder what you're gettin

They're other things like angel wings

With fur that's never sheddin'.

There's no disease or achin knees

and wrinkles smooth and silken

I fall asleep and dream of you

and times when we were given

to sprint and run and tug on toys

and dash to mom for lovin.

Tonight no tears oh Howie dear

because I have been taken

I’ll kiss your cheek and whiskers sweet

And heal the ache within you.

The pain it fades and goes away

And even loss feels lighter

When time moves on then pushes back

All that separates us.

Fatties in Fetties - GQ Pug Edition

Java in his preppy sweater
vest from Aunty Melissa and
Cousin Emmypants

Howie sez Annie looks like an
overripe tomato in her new fettie
but Annie sez she is Da Bomb.

Howie aka GQ Puggy

The three fatties in their fetties from
Aunty Melissa and Cousin EmmyPants

The most exciting prezzies arrived at the Medina Foster Home for Wayward Pugs! Bran new sweater vests from Aunty Melissa and Cousin Emmy of PugNotes just in time to ring in the New Year! Howie enjoyed a special bonus moment of tearing up the tissue wrapping. Melissa of Pugnotes creates amazing designs and critter art and we have loved and adored her and her Activity Director and Number One Studio Assistant Emmy-Pants fur just about furever.

What a wonderful gift, we could not believe our eyes! Annie was feeling especially cute in her red outfit and immediately began shopping for matching shoes. Howie quickly discovered that wearing a fabulous blue sweater attracted treats from admiring hoomans and Java gave his beautiful orange sweater three toes up and circle snaps shortly before falling into a post-brekkies coma on his favorite pillow snuggled in the warm, soft outfit from his Aunty.

Thank you so much Melissa for these beautiful sweater vests! The fatties never looked so good!

*blows kisses* Do you notice anything different about me?? Besides the fact I am wearing my adorable Christmas coat I mean. *bats eyelashes* Look closely, do you see anything PINK with HEARTS on it??? Something that might make a little puggy girl's heart go pitty pat if she were to receive it in the MAIL from her hunky hunky puggy boyfriend Bajas???

Bajas Santa Puggy

Well if THAT doesn't make your heart go pitty pat, here is something that will. Have you ever seen such a dreamboat Santy? This here is my boyfriend Bajas from way across the world. He sent me this sweet new prezzy collar and a card expressing his love and affection for me. And who can blame him? I am, after all, puggy-cuteness in every way! *Howie makes gagging motion with his paw*

Thank you Bajas Hunny Bunny for my howliday gift, I love you sweetie! I will airmail you a little kissy as a reward. xoxoxo
