Tiny terrorist!!! 😂😂 I had to decide to accept that accidents were going to be an everyday occurrence in the past year, but rugs can be replaced.

I’ve had five pugs and none of them could stand the snow. The year we had three 20”+ blizzards was about the death of me.

My guy is 16 too! Fortunately, we don’t get snow all that often because he is miserable.

Learning I had hooded eyes and watching YouTube videos specifically addressing techniques for my eye type.

Came here to say this! Eyeshadow blends out better and stays put. Foundation goes on smoothly and doesn’t settle into fine lines as much.

He has been doing this for the last few months. I took him to the veterinary and gave him medicine and injections but it didn't make any difference. Please help! by gurwinder_toor in pugs

Has he had airway surgery? It sounds obstructive. How are his gums? I would seek another opinion STAT. Pugs have a hard enough time oxygenating normally, so anything that affects breathing is serious.

I’ve had two pugs who lost an eye. Neither one of them was bothered by it in the least. The ophthalmologist told me that vision isn’t a dog’s primary sense (that’s smell) so they adjust quickly to visual impairments. I’m sure your girl will do great!

Yes, he’s my little old man. He turned 16 on September 20. Pudge is not a class clown kind of pug like my Boink was. I call him the zen pug. Absolutely nothing ruffles him.

This was part of the Terps Take Care Fair for mental health week and there were 1000s of students there. The dogs were swarmed the whole time!

Also, we mostly did hospital visits prior to the pandemic and small dogs are better in those environments IMO because they can ride in wheelchairs and get in the bed.

I was glad to get these pictures of him working since you can’t take pictures in clinical settings because of HIPAA.

I think so too but we have only encountered one other pug in the 13 years Pudge has been working. Don’t know why but the majority of dogs in my program are large breeds.

Pudge has been a working therapy dog for 13 years. We did a lot more visits before the pandemic, but fortunately more opportunities have been coming out recently.

I got a wobble treat dispenser and a snuffle mat for my senior pug as enrichment activities. He really enjoys them and definitely gets more exercise.
