It’s not easy being a pug…
This past week has been so hectic trying to get my new little boy to learn the house rules. I found out that he likes to watch Sportscenter, and I think for some reason he enjoyed watching Notre Dame get slaughtered last night at the hands of USC, because everytime they went 3 and out, he ran around the room. I wonder if Charlie Weis will keep his job after this season, but I heard that the university is looking forward to a good recruiting class and might let him stay one more year or so.
The Bears game should be very good tonight, although I hate having to wait until 7pm to watch it. I am a huge fan of Adrian Petersen and watching him during his Oklamhoma days and I predicted then that he would be a show stopper in the NFL. As much as I enjoy watching him play, I hope he sucks today and the Bears can get a win and stay alone on top of the NFC central.
Reggie is wearing me out, and as much as I love puppies, I don’t love how they can’t hold their poops or pee. Twice Reggie decided he wanted to finger paint his cage, and since he didn’t have paint, he used poop. I was watching Lock-up Raw on MSNBC, so maybe he got the idea from the inmates on TV, but he made a mess. Yesterday, he must have ate something that I didn’t see because he had gas so bad, I couldn’t hold him. He likes to doze off laying on my chest so he can feel my heart beat, but the constant flow of pug farts was choking me, so I had to put him down. He stunk up the basement so bad that we all could smell it upstairts. Wow, for a little guy, he puts up quite a stink. He is learning how to sit today and lay down. He takes to training very well as he LOVES liver treats. Reggie is a great tool for recovery, as I could never think about having a drink and no matter how messed up I might feel, looking into those little pug eyes melts any urge to splurge away. Go Bears.
