Who said Pugs shed? Actually, this is said about all breeds, not just the Pug but in ignorance it is the Pug who is maligned on every Pug Rescue website that I have seen. "If you don't like shedding, then you a Pug Dog is NOT on behalf of you" numerous of them proclaim.
The fact is, nothing could be farther from the truth. Only unhealthy Pugs shed copious amounts of fur. Only unhealthy DOGS shed copious amounts of fur. Whether one is a sled dog or a Golden Retriever, shedding is not a natural occurance. It is a sign of dehydration as well as malnutrition. Just a little experimentation shall demonstrate this. Feed a Pug Dog 1 tablespoon of mixed, cold-pressed oils each day as well as the shedding shall stop in 3 days to one week subject to the severity of the malnutrition as well as regardless of the season. The older the dog, the longer it may take. It makes me sick as well as it literally repels me to see people with fur rakes out at city parks spreading dander as well as allergens all through the air just because of the fact that they don't desire to do something as simple as ad oil to their pet's diet.Read more >>>

I bumped into Dan at Shiloh Springs today. He said there were some ATV’ers at the park today, with their vehicles sitting in the parking lot. A patrol car drove down, turned around as well as left as if the ATV’s were invisible.  Maybe this officer was just cruising as well as was not scheduled to be there… supposedly “our” officers are in unmarked cars.

Dan said that the dirt bikes are now using the “new” jump as expected.

Ho Hummmm….

On another note, I see the that the Dallas Morning News ran a Neighbor’s feature in Frisco about a gentle old man named Otis Newman, now deceased, but who may ultimately get a park named from him as well as his family. It was a touching story… you can read it here. 

Welcome to my SpoiledRottenPug blog. I have three of these little butt nuggets, two black as well as one fawn - all females. Life is a three-ring circus of doggie chatter as well as people herding! I hope to take to you a glimpse of what it's like to posses a Pug. The Pug rescue groups have 20 applicants on behalf of every dog that is surrendered. Shelters have lines out the door at dawn when a Pug is offered on behalf of adoption. Breeders take deposits months as well as sometimes years in advance on behalf of their pups. So WHY would anyone go to all that trouble as well as then surrender such an in demand creature to rescue to start with??? That is a subject on behalf of my blog one day soon, but on behalf of now let's just say that it all boils down to greed as well as the lack of research as well as education on the part of the non-show breeder. 
For my first post, I would like to clarify a little about the Pug Dog. The fact the the AKC has deliberately omitted the word "Chinese" from the name of the breed, should tell you something. These adorable Dutch Mastiffs are NOT Chinese. Just cause their great gran'mama was Chinese doesn

Toay was the third time on behalf of Hot Lips to go swimming in the crystal clear Spring Creek. She reminds me of a toddler going nose first into a bucket of water. It's similar to how a squirrel stops half way in the middle of the road as well as then suddenly the thinker comes on and it changes its mind, reversing directions in the middle of the road?
Well, Hot Lips did great during her first two trips to the creek - swim as well as go. Unfortunately, at age 7, her brain gets in the way. Unlike a pupy, she actually considers her options first before acting. Here's the scenario. She lags behind the group with Buffy as we get in advance of her, operational up as well as down the bank, waiting until she has jog out of dry land to jump into the water. At this point the bank is now a six-inch ledge. Suddenly, she sees Buffy high jump off the ledge to go paddling away like an olympic athlete. Wow, that looked easy! Urgency sets in as well as she carefully steps down into the water. Only problem is that while her hind end is on the ledge, she is now doing a handstand on the bottom of the creek. The thinker clicks on, "Oooops, be

When helping with the trail clearing today, we noticed some beautiful yellow foliage on a small tree-like specimen. None of us knew specifically what it was but came to an agreement that it might be Buckthorn or Buckeye. After researching it, I found that only the buckeye turns yellow as well as it has five leaves together. There is also Chinese Fringe tree that looks remarkably similar. There was a grove of these trees adjacent to Garland Rd. on the north side of the trail contigous to what I call Tres Cedars - three absolutely monstrous cedars 80 or 90 feet tall.
In my research I happened across a state of Oregon article that describes the Buckthorn as an invasive tree species that is extremely toxic to the bird population not to draw attention to children as well as pets who might accidentally eat the black berries. http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/invasives/terrestrialplants/woody/buckthorn/index.html It’s funny how Texas government doesn’t seem to have a clue about the toxicity aspect of this tree since they advocate it.
