I just wanted to take a minute to introduce my new brother, Skeeter!

He's just over 2 years old. So far we're getting along really well, though we have tussled over the toys a few times.

Mom and Daddy Wayf think he's really cute when he gets tuckered out and stretches out on the kitchen floor.

Anyway, Skeeter came to us with a few health issues, but he's been to the vet and is doing much, much better !! I think we're going to have lots of fun and many misadventures!!!!

Bow! Wow!

I have lots of allergies and skin problems. Every time I got a vaccination, I had a bad reaction. I can't have vaccinations anymore because the last time (when they gave me my rabies shot), I swelled up so much that I looked like a Shar-pei. They had to put me on oxygen and then later that night, Mom had to take me to the emergency vet and I spent the night in the hospital. I sure was glad when Mom picked me up the next morning!! It took a long time to recover from that vaccination. The vet said they won't give me any more vaccinations - they'll complete a waiver for the state-required rabies vaccination, which suits me just fine!!

Anyway, because of all the allergies and skin problems, Mom and Dad have a lot of medications for me - there's medicine for my upper face folds, medicine for my lower face folds, medicine for my ears, medicine for my allergies. I'm frequently on antibiotics for the places I get on my skin - just finished an antibiotic and steroid for a big boo-boo on my paw.

If we go on a trip, Mom takes a small tote bag that carries all this stuff! She's had to give me Benadryl and Pepcid and Kaopectate. I can't remember all the other weird stuff the vet has had her give me!

Then there's the aloe and oatmeal shampoo, medicated wipes and special wash that they have to use when my chin breaks out - that's another weird dermatology thing! And there's the monthly Heartguard and flea stuff they put on my neck. Mom even keeps first aid supplies especially for me 'cause of all this stuff.

Anyway, I'm sick of taking medicine and getting my face washed and folds cleaned all the time!

(And another thing, I'm really sick of the vet taking my temperature!! Bet she wouldn't like it if I took her temperature THAT way!)

Oh, yes, I almost forgot - my special diet food sucks!

Ok....I'm done griping now. I feel much better! Thanks for listening...

I'm excited!!!! Mom and Dad love me so much that they want me to have my very own brother!!!!!

Mom and Dad have been talking to a lady who is trying to find a home for her pug. They sure did ask her a lot of questions!

Well, if Mom and Dad are feeling okay, we are going to meet him and his family on Saturday to see if we like each other and all that good stuff. Hopefully, all will work out well and he will come home with us.

Mom showed me his picture - he looks ALOT like me. If he doesn't get to come home with us, I'm going to be very disappointed.

I'll keep you all informed....

Well, life around the ole Wayfarer hovel has been kinda' dull for your friendly Pug the last few days. Seems like Mom and Dad have either been sick, or worn out, or both for quite awhile now.

I think things are slowly getting back to normal, though. Maybe I'll get to go outside and play in the snow!

I know Daddy Wayf has posted pictures of our trips to Hocking Hills on his Blog. We all have a wonderful time when we go there! My favorite part, of course, is the trees!!!    But Mom wouldn’t let me show the pictures of what I do there!  So, I’m just going to show you the pictures of what else I like to do while Daddy Wayf is off in the forest!

(That's me trying to catch the water in the little waterfall!)

(Running around in the water was fun!!!!!)

(When I got too hot, I just plopped down into the water to cool off!)

I can't wait to go again!!!!

Bow! Wow!
