I'm not Pet of the Month . . . yet

The mail just showed up, including the local monthly paper. I search for the "Pet of the Month" feature and found it on page 20.

Oh no! It's not me! It's someone named "Hope" who is looking for a new home because her mother is allergic to her fur. Oh . . . well, I guess if I were looking for a new home, I'd want my picture in the paper, too.

I do have a pretty good life. After all, I have a house, a pool to lounge around, a backyard with a big fence so I'm safe, daily leisurely strolls around the neighborhood, an extended family that loves me, two meals a day plus snacks plus all the food that drops on the floor that I get to before anyone else does. Yep, I'll admit it. It's a good life for little dog.

I do hope "Hope" finds a new home soon. Doesn't everyone deserve a loving place to home?

Puggies smooches to all,
Ammie

The Seal Hunt Started Today In Canada

I may just a puggie but I read about the horrible things that happen in the world to other animals. Please educate yourself about Canada's annual seal hunt. Hundreds of thousands of baby seals will be killed in the largest commercial hunt of marine mammals on the planet.

Seal Defense Campaign and HSUS are both great places to learn more so you can make an educated choices about where you shop and what you buy. Please don't support this inhumane and horrific activity by unintentionally purchasing products made from seal oil or from fashion designers that use seal skin.

For more information, please visit Canadian Seal Hunt or the Humane Society of the United States to learn about how companies like Costco sell seal oil capsules. Also learn about these companies who manufacture products from dead baby seals: Prada, Pajar, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Birger Christensen, Versace, and Vogue Furriers. Also learn about why you should boycott these sea food restaurants Red Lobster, & Long John's Silvers.

Never a moment of privacy

You think you're all alone, enjoying a quiet moment, passing the time away by chewing on your favorite stuffed animal and then out of no where WHAM! a camera snaps an unflattering photo. Gee, now I know how Britney feels.

When I saw this photo, I just couldn't believe it. I look so sinister, so unrefined, just staring into space, chewing away.

I'm really not like that at all. I'm actually a peacful little puggie princess, except of course, when food is involved. Then it's everyone for themselves, but I'm sure you'd be the same way if you had to sit around and wait for someone to feed you. If I only had that opposable thumb I could get that refrigerator door open, all my problems would be solved . . .

Spa Day

Today is Spa Day. "Spa Day" as my Mommy refers to it, is the day I get a bath and have my nails trimmed. I really don't like this, but I allow it to humor my Mommy.

During each and every walk I search out only the finest of fragrances and then roll in them to perfume myself. I think I smell fabulous. My smell is uniquely mine and it takes a lot of work to get it just the way I like. Then wham! Spa Day comes along and this bath thing undoes all my hard work.

I don't really understand the nail trimming thing either. I thought long nails were in. I've seen humans with nails much, much longer than mine and no one seems to think it's odd.

Of course the best part of Spa Day is I get Greenie after my bath. I run around in the sun, dry my fur and stiff for good smells to roll in.

Puggie smoochies to all,

Ammie
