Why the Long Face?

Saturday in the Park

This Saturday proved to be the ideal fall day, so Sid and I shed the confines of our tiny apartment and set out for a stroll through Prospect Park.

After sauntering across the long meadow and nethermead, we eventually found our way to the Boat House which looked the perfect place for a pug photo shoot.

Massachusetts Road Trip! (part two)

The second day of our visit to Massachusetts started with a trip to downtown Hingham, which is a neighboring town of Cohasset. There were many cute little shops, including a pet store called Maggie’s Dog House where Sid was immediately and thoroughly spoiled by his grandma, Mary. But, really, how could anyone resist Sid when he puts on what we refer to as his “teddy bear” face?

Massachusetts Road Trip! (part one)

Nothing beats an autumn drive through New England, so when we heard that Ma and Pa Demski were flying to Massachusetts to visit Brian’s cousins, Dave and Kathy, we promptly strapped Sid into a rental car and hit the BQE for our first official road trip as New Yorkers.

Sid does really well in the car.

The World is Sid’s Bolster II

Nothings says “comfort” like the countertop of a kitchen island.

Sid vs. The Carrot

Sid had a great weekend with his extended family in Massachusetts (more on that tomorrow) and to reward him for his good behavior while he was there we got him a treat. Not just any treat – this was something entirely new. Sid has had his fair share of baby carrots – rather than chew them he prefers to just swallow them whole making us wonder if he evens realizes when he has just eaten one. We decided it was time to up the ante…

“Ladies and gentlemen, on the left side of the ring/bed, hailing from Brooklyn, New York, weighing in at 21 lbs, and wearing the striped collar – Siddddddddhartha Lamonnnnnnt!”

And on the right, hailing from Cohasset, Massachusetts, weighing in at 2 and a half ounces, and wearing orange – the Carrrrrrrrrrot!”

The crowd waited with anticipation for the bell to start round one…

The World is Sid’s Bolster

We’ve been so busy doing exciting things that we now have a back-log of exciting things to post!  It may take a few days to sort through all of this excitement, so in the meantime I’m starting a new Pug Slope photo series entitled “The World is Sid’s Bolster.”  The photos in this series will provide photographic evidence that, to Sid, everything is fair game when it comes to finding a place to rest his giant pug head.

In today’s photos, Sid claims my spine as his pillow:

Talk about lumbar support. (ba-dum ching!)
