When the pugs were new
Some of you have been my blogging buddies for years, and remember my talk about getting baby pugs. That happened back in 2007, just before Christmas. Well, here's a photo Gary found over the weekend of me holding little Violet. Compare it to her resting on my shoulder in the sidebar. She and Daisy were only just over 5 weeks old when we got them (victims of a puppy mill in a neighboring state). They had to be taken from their mother early in order to process the huge amount of dogs that were involved. The woman who was guilty of raising the dogs in crowded and unkind conditions was given just one pet afterward, and it was our pugs' mother. Just thought this photo was so adorable. We'd bundle the puppies in tea towels and hold them to our chests to keep them warm. Best Christmas present ever. :)
