Hello all you beautiful Pug Slopers!

Sorry that it’s been a while since you heard from me directly. As you know, I lead a pretty busy life so I usually delegate posting duty to my unpaid intern (aka “Brian” or “Dad”). Well, this time I’m typing with my very own paws. Notice, however that you’re not hearing the usual tap-tap-tap…that’s because I got my nails trimmed. See I am entertaining some special guests this weekend and I have to make sure I’m in top form.

My intern, er, Dad, is going away for the weekend to someplace with waterslides and go-karts and other things someone his age should have probably long outgrown. While he’s away, I’ve got two awesome humans coming over to man the PugSlope Headquarters and administer my treats (they’ll be taking me on walks, too, but let’s be frank – treats are the numero uno priority-o). I want to make a good impression, so in addition to my nail trimming (technically “dremeling”) I also got a full-service bath and all my beds were washed and dried (again, by my intern). Everything smells like coconuts.

I’ll let you guys know what I get up to when my Pops returns. Let’s just say I’ve got a feeling I’m going to be S-P-O-I-L-E-D!

And the tri-pug adventures continued…

Donald, Daisy, and Sid did a little gift exchange with eachother. Sid received some cool and extremely thoughtful presents – including a STUFFED BABY CARROT!

I know you’re plush, but I still plan to eat you one day.

He also got a some sweet potato treats and a super soft and warm fleece sweater that used to belong to Payton. It’ll surely keep him warm during this winter that seems like it may have a few more months to go. Thank you, Donald, Daisy, Christy, and Tim!

Sid gave Donald and Daisy each a Wigzi because he felt they were not getting enough peanut butter in their daily lives. He said that peanut butter and baby carrots are an essential component of the pug food triangle.

For some reason, the pugs got a kick out of playing on the deflated air-bed. I think it may have been the fact that Tim was sitting on it and he possesses some sort of gravitational pull that the pugs cannot resist.

Unfortunately the party couldn’t last forever. Donald and Daisy got bundled up and their ‘rents packed up all the pug accoutrements.

Sid didn’t want our special guests to leave, so he forged what he thought was a fool-proof plan…

C’mon! How did you guys find me in here?!

We had a great time with D & D and their ‘rents this past weekend. Looking forward to their next visit to the Windy City!

Sid & Christy

As prophesied by our fantastic (and possibly psychic) readers, Donald and Daisy from Pug-a-Boo (and their ‘rents, Tim and Christy) were the special guests that spent the weekend kickin’ it at Chateaux Pugslope.

Despite the predictions of a brutal snow storm, the weather stayed on our side somehow, so we couldn’t resist taking the pups to the park for a photo shoot to capture this special occasion.

Ladies first… here’s the delightful DAISY!

And here’s her partner in crime, the dapper Donald.

Let me tell you, it was tricky getting all three pugs in one photo. Even more difficult was getting them to all look in the same direction at the same time. While Sid and Donald were captivated by the baby carrots that Tim was seductively waving off-camera, Daisy wasn’t very interested. It’s been rumored that she doesn’t get out of bed unless filet mignon or higher is on the menu, so the BC’s weren’t really up to scratch. Luckily we also had some tasty venison jerky on hand, which captivated the entire gang.

Do NOT, under any circumstances, lose sight of that venison jerky!

(A squirrel breaks Donald’s concentration)

HOLD UP! Um, are you telling me I just missed the venison jerky delivery?! WTP?!

After the photo shoot and a liesurely stroll through the park, the pugs crashed, allowing us humans to hang out for a bit and partake in some treats of our own.

Tune in tomorrow for Part 2!

Congratulations to all the readers that guessed who the special guests staying at Pug Slope HQ this past weekend were…

It was none other than DONALD and DAISY from Pug-a-Boo, along with their ‘rents Tim and Christy (who also happen to be the ‘rents of Angel Payton). That’s Daisy on the left, Sid in the middle, and Donald on the right.

As soon as the comments starting coming in on Friday’s post, I was astonished by how many people guessed the special guests correctly. I thought I had withheld the details and kept things vague enough but either you guys used some mystical psychic pug juju or Sid hacked my email account again and published all the details on wikileaks.

The photo above doesn’t quite convey the extreme size difference of Sid compared to either Donald or Daisy. D & D are practically “pockets pugs” compared to Sid.

More details of the pug party to come later this week! Stay tuned!

So my dad and I haven’t written any posts this week (other than Monday) because it’s been pretty boring over here at Pug Slope Headquarters.

I mean, we’ve just been doing our normal mundane routine – y’know walks a couple times a day, breakfast, stuffed Wigzi balls for a lunchtime snack, dinner, midnight snack if I’m so lucky, and plently of sleeping and napping.

Turns out that laying low this week was actually a good thing, though, cuz now I am totally prepared for AN EXCITING WEEKEND!

My dad hasn’t told me the whole story but he mentioned that some guests (yes, there’s an “s” on the end of that) will be crashing with us at Pug Slope HQ. And we’re not only talking human guests but also GUESTS OF THE PUG KIND. And yes, there’s an “S” on the end of that one, too!

OMP I can’t wait. It’s too bad my dad did all that cleaning last weekend, I was hoping to show off my cool “peanut-butter print” bed that I’d worked so hard on the past few months. Oh well.

So, guys, who do you think the guests could be?!
