Happy Gotcha Day - BELATED!!!

Can you believe that the momma thought she was going to get away without posting today?!?!? I understand that she has been busy, but how on earth did she miss my Gotcha Day???????? Momma says she didn't "forget" my Gotcha Day, she just got the day wrong. See, my Gotcha Day is April 14 and birthday is July 18. For some reason, the momma can't get the 18th out of her head. So she thought my Gotcha Day was Monday (so she's still LATE), not LAST WEEK!!!!!! What am I going to do with her?!?!? So the momma has said she will make it up to me with a trip to our Three Dog Bakery before we go to see The Posse on Friday! I'm still deciding whether to forgive her yet!!!

This is the first picture the momma and daddy ever saw of me.

The momma wasn't sure at first, but all that changed the first time we met!! I got out of the van and ran straight to her and I've been stuck like glue ever since!!

Two weeks after our first meeting, the momma and daddy drove forever in the pouring down rain to southern, middle of no where Kentucky to pick me up. This would be daddy and I's first meeting. And of course he loved me in an instant, how could he resist???

This picture, momma took when we stopped at the gas station on the way home. She sent it to Grandma and Grandpa to show them their new grandpug! Grandpa said I was defective since Uncle Brandon's dog (a beagle) had a nose and I didn't! Momma told him I was perfect!! (He has since fallen in love with me of course!)


From there, life has been one happy moment after another!! There have been a few bumps (emergency rock removal) but we wouldn't change a thing!! Here some pictures from the last 4 years!! We hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we did taking them!!

(The momma calls this one "Blonde Pug" No idea what she could possibly mean!!)








(Really Momma!!! Did you have to include this one?!?!?!? Not my best look!!!)






(Come to me!! You know you want to!!!)















Thank you all so much for sharing the last few years with us!! The momma never could have imagined how much her life was going to change when she made the decision to bring a pug into her life!! We can't wait to share whatever new adventures life has in store for us with all of you!!

Until next time. . . . .

Pugs, Hugs & Kisses

Happy Belated Gotcha Day. Give your mom a pass (just this once) on mixing up the days. Sometimes mom's head is too full of unimportant stuff and it gets in the way of important stuff, like Gotcha Days.
