Amir Walking himself

Whenever we walk to take Amir & Bubba outside, we have to put the leashes on them. Amir always takes his leash and tries to walk himself. Sometimes he will even take his brothers leash and try to walk his brother. As if we will let him walk himself or his brother, he's crazy!

Sleeping

These pugs have all sorts of funny sleeping positions. One thing is that because they are brothers and were brought up together, they love to sleep with each other. You can tell that they really love each other!

I love Pugs!

Pug or Person?

Bubba is lounging in the afternoon sun! He is too good to lay in the grass, he thinks he is a person and sits in chair to sunbathe. Doesn't he look like he is posing for some sort of ad for a magazine?

Bubba playing soccer

Bubba is wearing a Moroccan soccer jeresy. His dad put it on him when him and his brother were playing with a small soccer ball that they eventually tore to pieces.

First Christmas

The puppies first Christmas. We bought Santa hats for them but every time we tried to put them on, they would just try to bite the white ball on the end of the hats. This was the only time we actually got the hats on the puppies and they stayed still just long enough to snap our Christmas picture.

Both Bubba and Amir got two wrapped presents each. Each time one would investigate one of the gifts the other puppy would go after the same gift. Finally they opened their gifts and fought over the squeaky stuffed animals inside.

Chewing on bones

The puppies both chewing on their bones on their bed. It took them some time to realize that this was their bed but they got used to it now. They love to chew on small bones. This was one of those rare occasions that they actually weren't fighting over the same bone.

Amir the Prince

Amir lives up to the meaning of his name, Prince. Above he has snuggled between two pillows. Below he falls asleep feeling most comfortable in his parents bed.

Playing

Two pugs is definitely better than one. Amir & Bubba are constantly playing together, one trying to dominate over the other. Here Bubba was trying to sleep but Amir wouldn't let him and sat right on top of him to wake him up. Silly puppies!

Driving in the car

Bubba & Amir love to drive in the car. They especially love to look out the window and bark at anything that goes by. Unfortunately we have to keep them in the back seat when driving even though they love to sit in my lap, but with the two of them its hard to keep them still. Now that they are bigger it is a hazard to keep them in my lap. Pugs stay pretty small though so I'm never afraid that they will jump out the window.

First Boat Trip

Over the summer we rented a boat and brought the puppies with us. They loved it! We took them to the dog beaches ever since they were puppies that way they could get used to the water. Everyone that we met told us that pugs can't swim but our pugs prove them all wrong. They were skeptical at first but now when we take them to the dog beach they immediately run into the water. It was hard keeping them on the boat especially when we went swimming but they sun bathed and slept a lot. I can't wait to bring them on the boat again!

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to my two babies, Amir & Bubba! On January 29th they turned 1 year old.
Now that they are adult dogs we have started noticing them maturing. But they will always stay puppies in our eyes!

My new baby pugs

This is the first picture of my pugs, before I was even able to bring them home. They were only 4 weeks old!
