This happens all the time – and I’m only bringing it up because it just happened again. My pug, Izzy, just pooped the floor. She knows she did something wrong, but instead of acting sorry, she gives me one of these looks, as if to say that somehow it’s my fault and I’m the jerk:
Don't mess with her. She's got the crazy eyes.
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! I hope you all are exchanging small heart candies with endearing catch-phrases written on them, and that many of you are getting lots of sugar-filled sweets and flowers.
We should have a special V-Day comic up in a few hours – and there’ll be a brand new strip up tomorrow, right on schedule!
This isn’t the big pug post I had wanted to write today, but it’ll do for now. Last week after writing Pug Off! I ran a quick search and found a delightful surprise – someone had already written a book on the subject:
I don’t know much about it’s author Dave Kellet, but after I tracked down a copy of his PUGS: God’s Little Weirdos, I can tell you he’s an incredibly talented and insightful writer/illustrator with a wicked funny bone. I think every panel contains a “pug-ism” with which I am intimately familiar – and often Kellet turned it on it’s head and made me laugh.
The book itself isn’t self-contained, but rather a compilation of Pug-related strips that are pulled from his daily webcomic, Sheldon. As a whole, they work well, and while I don’t know if they were put in chronological order the ordering and flow kept a nice pace.
You can order, or just check out a few sample pages, here, and if you own a pug, this is absolutely a must have.
