Sunday Walk in the Park

We had a small dog meetup in the park on Sunday.

I showed some moves to my big friend Mighty.

We all had different ideas of what direction we should head in.

Sorry for the delayed posts. My computer crashed and I'm using my dad's work computer so it has a lot of restrictions. Anyway, hopefully I will be getting a new macbook pro to blog on in early February when my mom goes to NYC.

I think pugs have a gene that allows us to find the most comfortable spot in the house. This picture is me on the sofa with two pillows stacked on top! Ah, it was a heavenly nap!

Extreme Weather in Geneva.

We had a lot of snow fall for Geneva. So much that the airport was closed for 6 hours! By Alaska standards it wasn't much though, 10 cm.

Anyhoo, I enjoyed the new powder.

Thank You.

I'm sporting a new vest, thanks to my friend Aphaluck! She was thinking about me while she was home in Thailand and managed to pick out a winner in this vest. It actually fits me which is a rare thing to find!

In this photo, you can see how the lines are quite slimming on me!

My dad was really getting into the photo shoot! Ha!

Pug Morning Urgency!

This Way!

Bonne Annee!

What a surprise to find so much snow out this morning. I hope everyone had a great holiday and are enjoying 2010!

Peace everyone!

Happy Holidays!!!

A White Holiday!

We had our first snow accumulation in Geneva for the winter and it looks like it's going to stay for the holidays. Argh! I don't like snow but it's better than slush!

Lyon and Pork!

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. It seems between the holiday gatherings and the long weekend trips I haven't had time to blog. Last Friday we made a last minute trip to Lyon for a long weekend.

Lyonaise food is known for being pork dominated and I found there was pig themed decor as well as pork products everywhere!

Why wouldn't you put a pile of lardon on top of potatoes all the time? The most important question though, is why isn't my mom feeding me this everyday?!!

Look at all that pork that was being sold at the market in Lyon! If only one of those saucissons would have dropped on the ground.

Boreal Coffee Shop is now open on Sunday!

Now I can go to my favorite coffee shop everyday of the week if I feel like it! They are now open on Sundays!

Holidaze!

My buddy Louis is a star! He made the front of the holiday mail out for the pet store J'adore my dog!

The limelight has just worn the little guy out! Here he is trying to catch some rest after greeting his fans at Boreal coffee.

Me, on the other hand, am still recovering from all our holiday gatherings over the last weekend. Peace out.

A total dogfest weekend!

My buddy Louis was over for the weekend and we had a wild and crazy time! We called our friend Chico and Happy over for the festivities!

Happy was thinking that me and Louis might be onto something with these carrier bags.

Louis and I had to take a few breaks on the couch during all the action.

At the end of the evening we both found our spots to curl up on.

Louis was exhausted.

Waiting on Louis.

Tonight my mom put out two bags, a raincoat, a sweater, and some toys that smell exactly like my friend Louis. I think he is coming over but I don't know when so I'll just wait in his bag. No need to be uncomfortable while I wait. Peace out.

Paris!!!

Riding the TGV in my new bag! It worked marvelously and I wasn't charged a ticket.

I also enjoyed the cafes much better with some plush seating of my own!

Eventually, the humans figured out what I really wanted. To be up on their laps! Ha! Also, at this bar, Charonne, we met a friendly crowd of fellow pug lovers and owners! Here's a shout out to them!

The Parisians love carlins (aka pugs) so of course their was a great window display with pugs for the holidays.

My favorite is the yellow hat! The pug looks all hip with the wrist band and the necklace!

Ahhh. No trip to Paris is complete without the obligatory stop at the BHV pet store!

Yes! Another cafe and I scored my own seat!

Enjoying the canal at St. Martin.

This is Charlie, the Parisian pug! His owner walked a block back just so Charlie could meet me! All in all, it was another fabulous time in Paris!

Waiting for Paris!

It was a gorgeous spring like day in Geneva so I hit the usual dog park with my bud, Louis!

After, I enjoyed a nap in my new train travel bag. I'm off to Paris tomorrow for a long weekend.
Have a good one!

Tryptophan induced sleep for me!

I know it's not officially Thanksgiving in the States yet, but we decided to have it early in Switzerland so everyone could attend before traveling to the states. This lovely 20 pound specimen of a turkey was quite tasty!

Here you can see my friend Pascale dishing out turkey for everyone! As with any Thanksgiving, I was not denied my gluttony! Ok, maybe a little!

I really wanted to leap onto the table, as you can see in the above photo, but my mom restrained me.

As with any great over indulgence , I had to go home and sleep it off! It was one of the better feasts, if my relaxed tail is any indication.

Boreal Coffee Shop with a friend!

Yep! Boreal comes through once again with some delicious biscuits for me and my buddy, Louis! Not just one but 1.5 each! They really know how to capture a pug's heart!

Enjoying European Cafe Life!

Yep, dogs are allowed in restaurants in Switzerland! Here I am enjoying the freedom.

I'm getting the kitchen tour with my daddy.

Our Paella!

This broth smelled incredible!

Another photo opportunity!

Pig Ears!!

Ahhh, the joys of a pig ear! It's been awhile since I had one since I lost a few key teeth but my mom found some thinner softer ears and I'm back in bid-ness!! Yah, you just can't beat a Euro pig ear!
