Happy Holidays!!

One of many outtakes.  

We will be feasting on turkey for our holiday meal.  Since my bro can't eat solids, there will be more for me!  The rents were grumbling about me being on a diet since we are flying back to the states in early January for the debut of my bro to the Grandparents.   I'm hoping they let me enjoy the holidays in true pug gluttonous fashion.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everyone!!!!!

Thanks for following me on my blog.

Chat'n with my bro!

Me and the Bro were hanging on the couch when he suddenly wanted to let me in on a little secret.  

I really had to get close to catch what he was saying.  Ya know, his pug talk isn't fully developed yet.

 

He whispered that once he had control of his hands and was eating solids, he's gonna  hook me up on the food front!  This could be the beginnings of true brotherly love! 

 

Baby Bro

The new baby bro is a bit wild when he sleeps so this is about as close as I dare get.  All in all he's not bad to sleep next to but he does get noisy when he wakes.  

I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!  Sorry again for the lag in posts.  I keep bugging the rents to write more for me but they mumble something about being tired. Ha!  Peace out.

Comfort

The new baby bro comes with some excellent sleeping aids.  The boppy happens to be my current favorite.  The rents keep talking about their lack of sleep these days but I seem to be getting even better sleep with this pillow.  Hope you all had an excellent Halloween this year.  

Peace out!

Introducing my new brother, Conrad!

I was waiting at home for his arrival and suddenly, there he was at the door in some kind of contraption the humans kept calling a car seat.

 

I got a good sniff and he smelled good!  

Here's a closeup of my bro with me guarding the door and catching some much needed rest.  

Peacefully Waiting.

I've heard I need to rest up before my little brother arrives.  Sounds like he could be noisy. 

Visit from my fans.

Some of my biggest fans visited me in Ankara!  What a treat it was!  Great seeing you, Andrew and Jaclyn!

I had a great time with them and am now catching up on my beauty rest. 

Tantik

Meet my neighbor and new friend, Tantik (I'm not sure how you spell his name).  Tantik is a five year old chow that is probably the most pampered dog I've ever met.  He has staff that walks him, feeds him via a spoon, grooms him, and keeps his house clean.  His dad also owns a fish restaurant so I'm sure he gets some great eats!  Livin the life Tantik!!

Alaska and Chi Town

Wow!  Time has really flown by this last month.  As you know, I moved to Ankara Turkey and I'm expecting a human baby brother at the end of September.  Since July I've been back to the states and did some traveling to Alaska and Chi town.  

I'm hanging on my perch, as usual, in Alaska.  Unfortunately, it was a bit chilly this summer with fresh snow on the mountains when we were there. 

Enjoying my usual walk in Grant Park.

Hanging around the south loop area. 

New posse in the south loop. 

Me and my buddy Bo got to hang out for a week!  

Chi visit isn't complete without a trip to Paper Doll on Division to see Maude the pug. 

 

Finally, we are getting settled in Ankara.  Here's what my new front yard looks like and I have a nice park just two blocks away.  

Peace out.  

I'm Back!!!!

And I'm a little bit settled in Ankara Turkey now.   Some things are a lot better than my life in Geneva.  One is that I have 4 balconies to choose from as well as a much larger interior space.  Here I am lounging on one of my balconies! 

Unfortunately, we still don't have our stuff from Geneva so it's a bit bare.  Thankfully, my mom packed the essentials which included several of my dog beds.  Since this photo was taken, we have a love seat and a rocker chair compliments of the new IKEA opening in Ankara.  We are thanking the IKEA Gods every day for opening!!

 

My new dog park with a few new dog friends.  

Unfortunately, Louis is not here and there's nothing like Bertrand Park in Geneva!!!

 In the mean time, I'm headed to Chicago on Wednesday followed by Alaska so I'll be seeing some friends there.  Happy Fourth everyone!  

 

Move to ankara turkey!!

I'm now living in Ankara, Turkey. Sorry for the lack of posts. We still don't have internet but hopefully within a week we should be up and running.

Peace out.

Chillin in the shade in Geneva.

The rents found us an apartment in Ankara. Apparently, I can have my own room and bath since it's so big! Lots of balconies too so that's a plus.

I've been making sure all my goodies get packed as well as my favorite toys and beds. Lots to do before the move in mid-June.

Peace out.

Louis' pad

 

 

 

I'm hanging with the Daly's while the rents are searching for a new home for us.  Apparently, it's not too easy with a small dog in tow but I"m confident they will come up with a nice place.  In the meantime, I'm hitting the dog park with my bud Louis and we are enjoying his posh pad!  (pictures were taken by Hillary Daly)

 

Chez Daly

Sorry for the lack of posts lately.  A lot has been going on in my household these days.  I did go to Lyon last weekend.  As you can see, I was exhausted after our night in Lyon so took full advantage of the swaying train home.

I'm currently spending the next week with my buddy Louis at his house.  My parents are in Ankara Turkey which is going to be my new home come mid-June.  I'll keep ya posted on what that means for me exactly.  

Peace out.

BBQ

One of my all time favorite chefs, Juerg, on the grill!  He tends to drop a lot of things which I REALLY enjoy!

Once the belly is semi-full, I can retire to sun bathing on the terrace.

It was a little hot in the sun so I had to retire to the couch with my daddy.

Finally, I couldn't take it anymore and had to crash in my travel bag.   I'm off to Lyon this weekend so I should have some great pics of the markets and the riverfront. 

Morning on the lake.

The town of Geneva added some decorative flags around the lake.  Personally I think they are out of scale for the pedestrian (and doggy) on the ground but they make great marking posts!  I've left a lot of pmail on those posts!!!

After Breakfast Morning Nap

What more could a pug want?!

The beginning of a summer full of dog park action.

There's a new pug at the dog park.  I think his name is Napoleon.

 

 And of course there is a new puppy in the park!

Dog Park Action!

On my evening walk last week I met up with this poodle who was traveling in style!

It was also a great week for the dog park!

 

The beagle gang was out in full force. 

Spring was definitely in the air!

A visit from Louis!

Louis was visiting for a few nights so we started it off with a trip to our favorite coffee shop, Boreal!  

Followed up with Louis' approval of our new couch! 

Then some playing around with my toys!

We ended with some couch surfing.

 

Peace out!
