Phyllis in the park!

 It's finally spring and the weather has been beautiful! We spent Sunday afternoon at Centennial park, along with what seemed like half the population of the city! Everyone was so happy, laying in hammocks, flying kites, throwing frisbees. We took Phyllis along, just because she is precious.

 Look at that smug face!

 We took our bocce set and played under the trees. Travis won this round. 

 Her teeth! She doesn't have too many left.

 I had a great day off with two of my favorites. When we got home Phyllis promptly fell asleep and snored the rest of the night away! We spent the rest of the night watching movies and I tried to go to sleep at 8 since I had to get up at 2 am for inventory at work. Blah!

Nashville's Dog Day in the park

i took phyllis to Dog Day in Nashville's centennial park on saturday. No priscilla because Travis is out of town and i can't carry them both at once. I really excited to go, but it was just ok. You had to pay 5 bucks to get in, and there were dress up contests and vendors and food and music. Maybe it would have been more fun if i hadn't been alone.



we saw a few pugs and i contemplated buying a dog stroller. i don't know if i'm ready for that though. haha.  i feel like i would be explaining to everyone that we have it because they are both disabled and can't walk a long way.
phyllis loved getting some attention and she liked all the treats people gave her. and she LOVED the huge dogs. there seemed to be tons of great danes/mastiffs and phyllis always wanted to go meet them.
there was bad traffic on the way home, so i took lots of pictures of phyllis while we waited. seriously, she is so cute it KILLS me.




so, if you are in nashville and tempted by dog day, it's really not worth 5 bucks. save that for pugfest ;) (i cannot wait for pugfest!! only 6 weeks away!)

Pugs In The Park

I took an unintended break from the internet the last few days. had to see harry potter a handful of times, and was reading the hunger game series like crazy (finished last night. so addicting!). now i've got soooo many entries to read on my blog reader and lots of photos to edit. but i love it so i'm not complaining.

I missed the last few pugs in the park meet ups, so i was determined to go this month. So determined that i showed up an hour early by accident and was bumming out that no one else came. The pugs liked being at the park anyway. It has been so hot they haven't left the house except for potty breaks in what seems like forever.

phyllis with her tongue out KILLS ME.


once i figured out no one was going to show up for at least 30 more minutes i put the girls back in my car for a bit of air conditioning and we went to sonic for a 9:30 am grilled cheese and huge fruit slush. when we got back to the park there were 5 other pugs there and i had fun petting and holding them all! I was feeling shy though and didn't take any pictures. Phyllis was acting like a puppy and chasing a little boy pug named Wesley around. It was really really cute. Not a big crowd (lots of the regulars are on vacation) and next month will probably be sparse too because of the heat. i can't wait for the fall!
