REALLY!!!????


ok...so the bottom line is WHO HAS TIME???!!! clearly not me or my insane PUG CIRCUS!!! things have been nuts for MONTHS around here!! you may or may not know we had a litter of Pups...a Mama Pug was turned into a shelter in KY fully preggers and ready to burst at the seams!!! poor baby!!! 1 week after she arrived to become part of the Circus..she added 7 little Monkey Pugs to the fold!! ADORABLE!!! So, the last 10 weeks have been active, busy, crazy and did I mention insane around here??? All the puppies are now (as of yesterday) in their Forever Homes! WOOT!!!!!
Of course notwithstanding.. I also had to organize the 500 Festival of PUGS! ok..time to CLONE me or I am going to lose my mind!!!!
Sadly though..we came to a screeching halt in our Puppy Madness around here when it was determined our 2nd Pregnant Pug surrendered just after Sassy's babies were born...had actually lost her pups. They were resorbed into her body...so there was no physical stress or strain her the Mama Pug. She came into KPR having been seen by 2 different Vets in KY..and misdiagnosed BOTH TIMES!!! she was on meds that she should NOT have taken while pregnant..AND she had to have emergency Palate Surgery the night she arrived to become part of the Circus. The Dr is not able to say WHAT made this happen...for all we know, there were issues with the Pups and Mother Nature took her course...or could have been the Meds...or the stress from surgery..or the stress from her palate issue. It of course does not help that her original owners kept her outside in 100 degree heat...WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE????
But as they say..this too shall pass. The upside...and it is a biggie..is that she will not have to go thru the ordeal of whelping a litter.
On a brighter note!!! Since my last post..and honestly...it has been a long time!!! we now have a 10 pack of our own!!! We have added Bobby Boucher ...yes...the Waterboy!!! and Polly Pocket Pug!! or Triple P BadAss (Princess Polly Pocket BadAss) as her Daddy calls her...what can I say.."he ain't right"!!!!!!! Our current Fosters are Good Golly Miss Holly...she is an adorable sweetie with heart/hip issues, Chyna Doll (the mama who lost her babies) and just picked up Miss Sweet Pea!!! she is "stank cute"!!!!! has the craziest underbite!!!!
ok..guess that is it for the moment. I really am going to try to keep posting...but who has the time??!!!!!!

  2. I do volunteer work for Northern Illinois Pug Rescue, and right now, due to the economy...
    there are so many Pugs that need homes it is truly devastating.

    It's nice to see you doing work for your rescue and sorry that it was a bit stressful.

    Sweet photos!! Pugs can make you smile right?

  6. You did an AWESOME job with Pug 500 and taking care of Sassy and her babies!!! I'm sorry to hear about Chyna, but am glad that she can now live out her life in retirement mode! I can't wait to see Sweet Pea! Her and Apollo should do an underbite face-off! Haha!
