Pugs, pugs and more PUGS!

Tom and I want to get a dog, or dogs...eventually, after we get married. At first, we really wanted to get Weimaraners. The problem with them is that I might get too sick to be able to take care of them. After researching breeds a bit and talking to some other people that have Crohn's, it seems as though the PUG is the resounding choice for a dog.

I think that they are really cute, and Tom has decided that they are soooooo incredibly ugly that they are cute. They might be a more sensible pet, especially if Tom and I start off in a small house with a small yard. In that situation, it would be unfair to have a larger dog.

The best part of having a small dog is that all of the dog clothes are cheaper (like the t-shirts, jackets, and booties) and it will be easier to paint their toenails. After telling Tom this, he seemed less enthusiastic about a small dog, for some reason!! I can't wait to start buying them Halloween costumes, like the hot dogs in the picture!! Most likely, they will be turned into little people, like all dogs seem to become.

It is a long way off for us, as Tom and I will have to get settled with everything in the future before getting a dog, but it is still fun to think about. I can't wait to see Tom walking a dog that is wearing a sweater and booties. Maybe that is why I want a little dog more....for the comedic situation that could stem from Tom and the dog!
