Payin' It Forward and My Brush with Royalty!

Hey pugs and peoples! I guess I gots to apolize again for Mom not helping me post. It was the Do Dah Day this weekend and she was really busy leading up to it. We started working on this post last week, but then she gots busy helping all those animals who don't have homes, so I guess I can forgives her.

First, I wants to tell you about a package I gots in the mail a couple of weeks ago. It was from my friend Rosie and her peoples. It was part of the Pay It Forward exchange. It came right around the time of my birthday and Mom got confused about who sent it and why (she gets my fawn girlfriends mixed up some times). If she had read the POSTCARD inside, it would have been obvious! Mom's kinda slow sometimes.

Anyways, for those of you who don't already know, the Pay It Forward exchange is fun and easy to play. Here is the concept...The exchange focuses on doing an act of kindness without expecting anything in return other than that the recipient will, in their turn, pass the kindness along and 'pay it forward' in their own way.

So here is how it works...The first 3 people who comment on this post and want to play, please email me your mailing address so that I may send you a surprise.

Then all you do is post a Pay It Forward Exchange on your blog, link back to me, and send the first 3 people to comment on your post a little surprise. It does not have to be expensive, store bought or even handmade. It can be whatever you want to send to make someone smile.

I knows you wants to see what Rosie sent me, so here it is:



I got treats, lots of treats! And a toy!



And I gots this cool shirt! It's says "Stud Muffin" - yeah, that's right!



Mom got this really cute change purse she can put my treats in and that funny magnet that looks like a foot. It's got sand in the toes! Those two things are from Rosie's peoples' trip to Punta Cana. (See the postcard Mom didn't notice for like a week?)



Thanks, Rosie and her peoples! We can't wait to pay it forward!

So, in other big news, I met royalty!!! Do Dah Day royalty! Every year, Do Dah Day crowns a king and queen (of the pet variety and the human variety). I went to the park last week to see the crowing of the pet king and queen and met all kinds of nice doggies!



See the white doggie? Her name is Pink and she's a Great Dane puppy. I's gonna go ahead and tell you that her big brother Blue (and he is BIG), who is also a Great Dane, won King. But, I gots no pictures of him or the queen. Cause I was a little smitten with Pink.



And she was a little smitten with me!



Oh, did I mention she can't hear anything? How can you not loves her?



Well, that's all for now. Here's one more piccie of me at the park. Hope you all has a great day!

Hello Harry and his Mom,

My name is Jennifer and I have two puggies Sequoia and Petunia. I was wondering if you could answer a question about nasal fold surgery...did Harry have this procedure done? Sequoia is scheduled to have her fold roll surgery in July. Thanks if you can help us out in finding out more about this procedure.
