And Good ‘ol Bob … feel asleep sniffing his back side again!

So this was how we started out spending a few hours once a week cooking for the boys. After doing research on home cooking for dogs, what their nutritional needs are and what they cannot eat, we stared out with just plain chicken and brown rice. After a few weeks on that and no skin or digestive problems, we added in carrots and then some additional veggies. So far so good with that so the newest add in is egg.  The boys love cooking time since the get a whole extra meal of what falls on the floor! Here are some pics of the big production.

We have been dog sitting Onyx the last week. Bob and Eddie have decided that they want his special bed and blanket that he brings with him on his sleep-overs. Onyx is an older dog and does not jump well onto the bed anymore … so the poor guy has been banished to the floor! Well, at least till we kick the boys out of his bed. In truth Bob and Eddie would not mind sharing with him, but Onyx will have none of that!

Bob and Eddie have a new sleeping spot … behind the pillow shams. One each curled up on the stack of pillows behind the shams. Did not even know they were there until I saw four eyes peeking out to see what was going on!

Nothing beats a lazy summer afternoon laying in the sunshine. Especially for Eddie.

Yesterday the boys had a play date with some friends, Piper and Pee-Wee. There is nothing quite like four pugs tearing around the house with lots of panting and snorting going on. And little pug trains of nose to butt was pretty amusing as well. Piper is the little black pug and the only female and the smallest of them all. But she sure can hold her own! She became very excited to find two nylon bones, wanted them both and nobody was going to take them away from her! Eddie finally met his match in little Pee-Wee.

When we decided to add Eddie to the family it was for two reasons. We loved having Bob and thought having another pug would that much more enjoyable. And by that point we had also figured out how much pugs shed … so what the heck, we already had hair everywhere so why not get another?! But we also thought that Bob would love to have a buddy to hang out with.  And were we ever right! Bob and Eddie can always be found in two places… anywhere we are and by each others side.

We now have discovered that Eddie will stay in forever if you throw in one of his favorite treats … ice cubes. We discovered their ice cube love in the winter had had lots of laughs watching them try to catch them as they slid all over the hardwood floors. Now we get to watch Eddie come up with his mouth dripping as he goes diving for ice cubes. Bob will have none of it. He will wait till he can come inside and eat them on the couch.
