Picture of the Day

I just LOVE this picture of Ethan and Ollie. It's pretty much what a little of every day with the puppies looks like!

Puppy Thoughts...

I have a rash. I'm on antibiotics. Enough said.

Lindy's Love

Lindy loves her puppies so much. She takes great care of them with feeding and walking but she also gives the best love! Her lap is always occupied with one of them. How sweet they are.

Puggle Snuggle

Nothing like snuggling with a pug on a rainy afternoon. Oliver is my buddy. He follows me everywhere and according to the kids he is "obsessed" with me, much like Quincy is with Ethan. He whimpers at the door when I leave and is by my side all day. The second I sit down he is next to me and sometimes he climbs on top of me and sleeps on my shoulder like a baby. I never had a dog that did this. And yes I am totally obsessed with Pugs!

It is  hard to get much done when he makes himself so comfy. It's a challenge to read to the kids! 

Our 1st Halloween

Quincy and Oliver were really good sports about their Halloween sweaters. They really don't mind wearing them especially when its chilly out!  Quincy has to have the manly, preppy styles and Oliver has the more cutesy wardrobe. You can tell who their "owners" are!

I belong to a boy!

 I belong to girls!

It's so exhausting getting dressed up!

Pug Love

Paige and Oliver

 We are crazy about our new family members! It amazes me the instant attachment we all have had with them. Thankfully both Quincy and Oliver are very happy to get any kind of attention. The girls especially are always babying them and helping them to "dance". But they love being with people and don't complain a bit!

 Ollie

Dog Days...

Pug Luv

Oliver and Quincy

We are all totally hooked on our little pugs! They are so cute and loveable, so much fun to have that even those who were not huge dog fans are completly in love with them. They are living the life too! Eat, sleep, play, play, play, get treats, sleep, eat.... life is rough!

Ethan and Quincy, best buddies.

Lindy and Oliver

 Oliver  Ahhh..... the coolest place to sleep.

 When out of crates and given the choice to sleep together they always find each other and snuggle up.

 Quincy - the best birthday gift ever!

 Quincy + Lindy = Love

 Quincy sitting with Lindy during her math lesson.It quickly got too boring and she finally had to move to her own chairl

Oliver's total cuteness is also in his personality. Quincy was at the back door whining when Oliver went and got a leash and carried it over to Quincy so he could go out. So sweet, they love each other so much!

Sunny Days

This is what happens when it finally stops raining and the boys get to play outside! Bill and I took them for walks down the street and then they played in the yard with the kids. They were so exhausted they collapsed onto each other for an hour. They were very sweet and then up running around like crazy again!

One Sick Little Puppy

 Oliver has had labored breathing since Tuesday. We took him into the vet and had him looked at and the vet decided to treat him for a respiratory infection. By last night though his breathing was still labored and worse, he was really struggling. Bill and I both could tell that he needed to go to the vet right away. By the time Bill helped me get him into the car he was totally lethargic and not really able to open his eyes. Thank God the emergency vet is right down the road and I was there in 2 minutes (yes I sped and I stopped at a light but didn't sit and wait for it to change)!
They took him right away and gave him oxygen, drew his labs, xrayed his chest, and worked to get him perked back up. He has lots of issues going on, maybe not serious on their own but the combination of them all at the same time is making him really sick.
He has fluid leaking from his lungs into his chest so the next step is to figure out why and where its coming from. Getting his puppy worms under control is also on the list, poor guy has been dewormed 3 times now! And that adorable little smashed nose possibly is causing some issues with his breathing and possibly contributed to getting sick easier.
As of now he is still in oxygen and getting IV antibiotics. Hopefully he will turn a corner and be able to come home tomorrow. Praying for quick recovery we miss him tons!

Tons of love from all his siblings during our lunchtime visit.

The techs think he looks like a flower, poor little guy. If he doesn't have this on he yanks his IV out in seconds.
