Bones, raw, fresh.

The puppy kongs are softer and the hole is bigger, that seems to be the only difference I noticed.

Why do you need the diapers? because she pees inside? Have you tried to train her to pee inside in one certain spot, like on pee pads or fake grass etc? My dogs are duel toilet trained, to go outside if the door is open, but inside on pee pads if the door is shut.

Because pugs aren't known for sleeping most of the day, regardless of how many people are home or not :laugh:

What, no more chocolate milk to wash down the pies and pastries? What is the world coming to!

When I got my pup I acted like rain was no big deal, we still went out in it as normal for walks and bathroom etc. A lot of people train their dogs to be fussy about rain by acting differently, changing their routine, not going out in it etc But when you gotta go, you gotta go - as long as they go out in it in the end and don't pee inside etc Now if there is frost on the ground it's a different story, and I get the "can you please take this off my grass so I can go and pee without my little toes freezing" look. She was a summer baby, this is only her second winter

Max loves the rain as it makes mud puddles to swim in :laugh:

Weekend farmers markets are good, usually friendly people who want to come up and go "omg that's an adorable puppy, can I say hi?" and smoosh him, but it's also not so much a formal introduction to 200 people at once, just a general guide to get out and about with pup as much as possible.

No, I open the door, if the dogs don't go out they get a gentle shove. No pussyfooting around here, they get it over and done with as quickly as possible then run back inside where it's warm and dry.

So sorry the news wasn't good, I had all my fingers and paws crossed

When my pugs were puppies they came to the office with me, but I have the type of office that easily accommodates it. Ground floor, very few people, open plan, direct access to grass and garden area, plenty of people coming and going to play with them, space to put them for quiet time, etc However, I also work for the state government who likes to make up OH&S rules whenever it likes, and they tried to say the pup wasn't allowed for safety reasons, but since there was actually no official policy against it, they couldn't enforce it (though I'm sure they set out to write a policy :laugh: ) I found the grumpy hardass guys would turn into marshmallows, rolling around on the floor playing with the puppy, letting her lick them and playing with her and laughing and having fun, totalling calming down. However, if everyone bought their dogs to work it wouldn't have worked. It worked because there was one dog in the office at a time. At christmas last year I bought both pugs in, and someone else bought her JRT in, and it didn't work. The JRT was a snappy territorial little bitch who would bark and carry on and snarl and snap everytime either of my pugs looked at her human, let alone went near her desk (which is next to mine). It made for an uncomfortable day for both of us. Max was always happy to just chill out on the floor. I didn't normally need to attach to her to anything, she wouldn't go far from me, and if she did it was just to stand at the door to tell me she needed to pee. Boston when he was little

sorry to be off topic, but how utterly ridiculous and short sighted. So basically you need to be retired or a billionaire to own a Pug? Apparently! It's the most ridiculous things ever.

Maybe also try some real bones, not dried ones, just for better nutrition.

Pugs SOS won't rehome to you if you work, and I believe the pug club of nsw also have the same rule, so I'd try paws for something more realistic.

We stayed in Birches Serviced Apartments with the pug once, and they were great. Ground floor, a park across the road and walking distance to the MCG.

Please tell me it was Max? Fluro earplugs come out the other end looking pretty much the same as when they went in. Why they'd want to eat my ear wax though is a whole other matter. It was most likely Boston, he's the garbage guts that can make poo patrol amusing because he eats anything, even if It's nailed down! After that incident someone actually bought them a Mr Hanky toy, It's a squeaky poo with eyes that they unfortunately love to fight over

My favourite was when one pug ate the head of a small stuffed toy, and the poop had eyes staring at me the next day :laugh:

If you want tick cover, use advantix every two weeks and a seperate wormer, as it doesn't cover worms.

Oh

I can't see anywhere to find the magazine to read? I'll check on my phone, because my work does block some things but I usually get a placeholder error message for blocked content. edit: ok, whatever format it is is just being blocked by my work filter.

... I've come home and my house is still in one piece :laugh:

I can see how that would be confusing!

There will be a conspiracy when he realises you've magically unblocked yourself and are able to talk to him on DOL

And that only one personality is allowed to post, so he can't create fake accounts to back himself up. And that he'll get himself banned pretty quickly if he goes into personal attack mode as he tends to do on FB.
