I must have a guardian angel; I nearly became "Comet" this weekend

I traveled with Kristen to Grants Pass this long Memorial Day weekend for her friend Juli's wedding. The wedding was beautiful but the real drama happened the following day. Kristen dropped me off to play with her brother's dog, Princess. Although Princess is a lovely companion I was annoyed that Kristen went to breakfast without me. So I broke free from the backyard and went out to explore the surrounding area. Eventually someone picked me up, renamed by Comet, and dropped me off for obedience training at the nearby Petco. Thankfully Kristen and her family saw me and my dog class out for a walk and was able to rescue me, otherwise I'd now be named Comet. How terrible!

Saddened at the loss of such talent: RIP Alexander McQueen

They've gone too far

Kristen and I were shopping today for some necessities and we came across this abomination:

Now, don't get me wrong, I am all for being fashionable. But these snuggies aren't flattering for humans and certainly not for my fellow canines. Just say no to the snuggie!

No more possibilities for little Valentinos...

I awoke yesterday afternoon groggy and in a strange place only to discover that Kristen had me neutered! No chance of procreating and passing along my ridiclously good looks. The only brightside to the whole ordeal was the pain meds and this cute little bandage they gave me; don't I look tough!

Rodarte for Target

Hey there Frugalististas!

Target has an early Christmas present for all you: Rodarte is designing a line especially for Target. Lots, of black, lots of lace and my personal fav: a sequined skeleton dress. Fabulous!

Thank you Kate and Laura! You girls rock!

What The Doctors Call a Little Bit of a "Weight Problem"

We pugs are curvaceous, full-figured creatures. Sadly not everyone appreciates our voluptuousness; my vet wants me to lose weight. I'm starting to develop a bit of a complex; Kristen seems to be rationing my food intake and it seems like people on the street are constantly staring out me. I suspect my weight is the reason Kristen took me to a dog park for the first time this weekend. I found the entire experience very overwhelming;

so I mostly stayed between Kristen's legs.

Later I ventured out to the other dog owners to watch the dogs

from the safe confines of their legs.

When I got up the courage to meet the other dogs they chased me around in tight little circles and I decided to it would be best to find Kristen quickly.

After my grueling experience I decided on a nice long soak in the tub to destress.

What a day!
