**Athena** it appears from the pictures that Frodo is considering either a career in porn or becoming a big game hunter. Perhaps you should start working with him on making wise career choices. He’s seems to be quite ambitious at his early age.

Oh and he is such a keeee-yooote wuvable widdle puppy. Yes him is!

Oh now he’s a cutie. And If his website address says anything about his character, then he’s also a 'Nole. And for that I love him.

If anyone has any stuffed animals they need killed, either of my doggies will happily take them out for you. They’re experts at making sure stuffed kangaroos, giraffes, and that [Awful Mad Kitty](http://amos.shop.com/amos/cc/main/ccn_search/st/dog%20toy%20awful%20mad%20kitty/sy/productsx/ccsyn/260/prd/14857235/ccsid/317082042-27804/ga/1/adtg/01270536) get deaded with regularity.

Looks like your big dog really loves your little dog (and I really had to retrain myself from typing “wuvs”),

Frodo is one of the cutest little love clowns I’ve ever seen and obviously VERY smart.  
Bosda obvioulsy has good taste challenges. Pity him.

His name’s Weezer. The first two pics are from when we first got him. He was two or three months old at the time. The people we got him from weren’t sure.

Why, so **pugluvr** can fit you with glasses?

'Cause anybody that thinks that dog is lovely needs to look up “malformed” in Funk & Wagners.

He’s definitely not a cow, though I’ll admit I’ve always wanted one.

We’ll try this again.

Oh, he’s most definitely a 'Nole, like his Monstre daddy. (Feel free to love me, too… :D)

But if you really want to know about his character, [read this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=200277) thread (from a while back).  
**yellowval** – I especially like that last pic. 🙂

Oooh the Peskimo is CUUUUTE!

And um, Queenie is… interesting. If my dog looked at me like that I think I’d have nightmares.

And **Bosda** , I’m pretty sure **pugluvr** will back me up if it comes right down to it. Malformed! I’m sending both the pugs over in the middle of the night to sit on your chest and drool.

Oh, Weezer is adorable! I like that he has those perky ears. So does he have a pub personality, AE personality, or a mixture of both?

She really is smiling. She does it all the time. [Here](http://img176.exs.cx/img176/2804/queenie177ur.jpg) is a better picture of her so no nightmares.

I’m not that familiar with AEs, and I haven’t had him in the pub yet … uh, I mean, but I do know some pugs. I’m not sure really. His personality is really funny, I know that much. He does have some perky ears. He likes to cock his head, put one ear up and one down, and give me that quizzical look. You know the one. Most of the time he’s running around like crazy, eating everything he can find (from dryer sheets to cat hair to “tree cookies”\*) and likes to give us run-by lickings. Most of the time his tongue is hanging out of his mouth. He doesn’t do the snorty thing like pugs. I’m thinking his personality must be a mixture of both. I, on the other hand, most certainly have the pub personality. 😃

- One night before Christmas I was sitting on the couch (Weezer was sitting next to me) and noticed that there was a wonderful smell in the room. It smelled like my cinnamon-applesauce Christmas tree ornaments. Then I noticed a ribbon on the floor, like the ones I used for those ornaments, and figured out that he had eaten one of the ornaments. It didn’t seem to have any side-effects, except for giving him the most delighful breath. I think he and the cats had a scheme going. They took the ornaments off the trees, and he ate them.

I will be sure to give him all your compliments when I get home!

**AsecretK** , if I were a burglar who broke into your home, all it would take was one smile from Queenie and I’d be out the door! She looks much more personable in the second picture!

He looks very distinguished, does he not? I just took that one today.

I forgot to compliment everyone else on their beautiful babies. As I said before, I wuvs me some puppies! I say keep the pictures coming. They’re making me happy on a long Friday afternoon.

Yo.

What a cute little hobgoblin, **Athena**. Pay no attention to the dog bigots behind the curtains - they know not of what they speak.

Heh. My boss’s teenage daughter has wanted a pug for years, even though she was raised in a huntin’ dog house. My boss and her husband have owned a succession of labs and retrievers, and my boss stated that she only liked big dogs. She was indulgent towards her daughter’s “whim”, though, and the daughter finally acquired her little pug pup a couple of months ago.

Guess who has become a drooling, adoring, passionate pug-worshipper? Yep, my boss. She’s competing with her daughter over who gets to cuddle and kiss and spoil the new household deity more. She said she didn’t realize that they had such fun-loving, goofy, sweet personalities. I just snicker under my breath and take comfort that one more dog bigot has been conquered!
