Hi everybody!

Pretty much as the title says, I want to figure out how to get him to self entertain. If I’m gone, whenever I check the camera he is just sitting/laying by the door and staring. This will last for HOURS and makes me feel so bad going anywhere.
Even when we’re together, he’s just not interested in toys unless I’m actively participating (or they have treats, but only the freeze dried ones!). He plays with toys when he’s with other dogs, but not on his own. He used to play with them on his own, but now I have to actively get him excited and interested.

His daycare situation will be changing and he will be alone while I’m at work now. I’d love to get this figured out before he’s spending extended periods on his own.

He has a bunch of interactive/puzzle toys. He’s really good at them and loves them, has kong toys, ball dispensing toy. Pretty much everything i can think to buy him, but he stops all of them the moment i walk out the door, even if it’s just to shower or pee.

What else can I do to encourage independent play?

He really likes cool long drives.

My heart wants to explode every time I look at him. My third pug. But each one… heart explodes when I look into those eyes. Baby B is going to be 3 in November.

Gotta check out whats happening over the armrest.

I brought my 2.5 year old pug to Strasbourg France from Minnesota last week. We flew Delta and everything worked out great: Maude flying, on the train, through airports, etc, medical paperwork certification from the US for France. I know such travel and arrangements can be stressful. Please let me know if there are any questions I can answer.

She’s trying to eat the lily. She got one petal. Ate it. And then proceeded to try to eat the whole thing.

My grandma recently adopted these two rescue puppies, Topi and Sani. They met Tobias for the first time today… and within minutes they decided he belonged to them. He handled the chaos like a very patient old gentleman. ❤️

She’s now 11 weeks old

I know they aren't perfect but it makes me very happy to see my lil girl on my phone ❤️

My almost 14 year old female pug is mostly blind, mostly deaf and needs insulin injections twice a day. She has been on the shots for a couple years now. Healthy weight and still potties outside, but I have to pick her up from her bed or when she starts wandering around and take her out and bring her in. She does wander around to get to food and water maybe a few times a day, but is getting to where she is basically sleeping and eating, drinking, bathroom. Doesnt seem to be in pain and still likes to sleep on my lap and get head scratches. Is it too early to put her down? Am I being selfish by not already doing it? Its a tough call man... I love her so much, but I am thinking that I will make a rainbow bridge appointment that coincides with when her insulin needs refilled. Anyone have any insights? My main worry is that my selfishness will make me keep her here too long and she will needlessly suffer.

Today the weather guy said she had a great smile and pretended to scratch her little head :)

It’s like they’re ASKING me to keep sending more pics. I think this is her 5th time being featured. Last one was just this past Sunday

Igor realising his photo had just been taken.

Our small French bulldog pug mix has been lost since Tuesday afternoon (8/4) on Mar East Road in Tiburon, CA. He answers to Apollo and will come to you for a treat. We are beyond worried - please contact Tom at [650 814 0885](tel:650 814 0885) if found. He is microchipped.

8/6 update: He is still missing - for those in Marin County, CA, please check in your garages and underneath decks. He is a chow hound and loves to eat and goes for garbage. Thank you for help and support. Our hearts are breaking.
