Born July 11, 2005 Lily is just over a year and a half. She has just learned to bark and has a variety of "snorts" that she usually communicates with. Unlike most puppies or young dogs Lily hates mornings and would happily sleep until noon... it can be a challenge to get her up in the morning.
Lily loves people even more than dogs, I think. She is happiest snuggled on your lap, snoring.
I will keep you posted on her latest adventures...
Information on Pugs:
I am a proud "mom" to a pug and will keep this page updated with interesting articles and stories on Pugs.
"A Face Only A Mother Could Love"
Pugs are cute - if you love them, you think they are the cutest breed around. People who consider them ugly just don't see the beauty in the breed.
Are you looking for a dog that will make you laugh? Then a Pug may be good for you - they are natural clowns and show offs.
Are you looking for a dog that is good with children? Then a Pug may be good for you as they seem to consider children to be "Pug-sized" people.
Are you looking for a dog as a companion to your kids, to run after them on their bikes up the street? You should pass on Pugs - their sensitivity to heat and small size makes that almost a certain death situation.
Do you want a small watch dog for an apartment situation? MAYBE a Pug can work - but it's not usual. Most Pugs won't know a stranger in their entire lives, let alone recognize a burglar. Pugs love people, they socialize with anyone good or bad..
Do you want an easy to train dog? Pugs don't normally fall into that category in general - because usually they want very much to please you, but sometimes it takes a Pug longer than other breeds to understand what you want (or maybe, longer for you to understand what they're going to do!).
Do you want a short haired dog because it will shed less? Then run, don't walk, away from the Pug breed. This breed sheds copious amounts, usually seasonally.
Do you want a dog that's almost human-like in personality? Then consider a Pug, as Pugs have more personality than they know what to do with!
