Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #18 (Jailed)

7/25/14

Dear Diary,

Woe is me!  Our home was damaged by stupid water from a sprinkler that went off several weeks ago and now every weekday we are locked in the bedroom.  No more roaming freely.  No more lounging on the big couch.  No more sunbathing while sleepily gazing out the window.  No more sniffing around the kitchen for hidden crumbs.  No more access to our ginormous toy collection.

No more fun.

Instead, we are stuck in a tiny room where the windows are covered with blinds.  This is going to lead to some terrible tan lines in our sunbathing.  And we only have a small fraction of our toys to play with during the day now. 

Sigh.  I just want our home back to normal!  This is the worst!

:(,
Rosy

Dear Diary,

Yay she's back! She's back!

SUNNY'S BACK!!!

Today was the longest day ever. Sunny was at the vet all day long and after a torturous 15 minutes during which I was left at home all by my lonesome self, the human brought Sunny home in the evening. She smells strange and is acting a bit loopy but she's home and that's all that matters.

Ok, time to go and snuggle with Sunny on her bed!

XOXO,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #16 (Change)

6-20-14

Dear Diary,

Yesterday the human said it was getting too hot for our usual comforter and she replaced it with a new coverlet!  Noooooooooo!!!!!!  I don't care how hot it gets, I need my usual, old comforter and its green cover with the bleach stain on the upper right corner.

This new coverlet doesn't smell right and it has no pug hairs on it!  It's also not as soft or as squishy as our old comforter.  This sucks!  So what if I wake everyone up from my panting when I get overheated under the covers?  So what if I make the human sweat like crazy when I glom onto her like a backpack?  None of this is a big deal so I don't see why we can't just keep our tried and true comforter with its green cover.  I tried staying on our old comforter for as long as possible, even when it was on the floor, but then the human pushed me off and put it away. 

Sunny doesn't even seem that upset about all this.  It's like we didn't have that beloved comforter for our entire lives here.  Oh well, I guess I'll have to put up with this thin, unsoft, unfun coverlet until summer's over.

I hate it.

:(

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #15 (Sharing)

6-12-14

Dear Diary,

I hate Sunny!  I hate her so much!  She's the meanest sister in the world and I'm never speaking to her again!

Every time I get really excited while playing with a favorite toy, she comes barging in and steals my toy away.  She does this all the time, even when she doesn't really like the toy.  I've seen her snatch a toy from me and pretend to play with it only to get tired of it a couple minutes later.  She just wants it because I love it!  I hate Sunny!

Grrrrrr,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #14 (Imitation)

6-5-14

Dear Diary,

Sunny and I are best friend sisters.  We hang out so much and we're so close that we're even starting to look alike!  Everyone gets such a kick out of how both of our tongues naturally stick out all the time.  You can tell right away from looking at us that we're best friend sisters.  Boopity boop boop boop!

XOXO,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #13 (Disturbance)

5-28-14

Dear Diary,

I am soooo tired!  Every night just as I'm sound asleep for my evening nap Sunny wakes me up with her spastic barking!  Sometimes she just growls, but most of the time she jumps stares out the window barking her head off.  I mean there's nothing out there!  Maybe she needs to get her eyes checked since she's practically ancient.  Or maybe she needs to get her brain checked out.  She's totally losing it.

Ugh.

Thanks for letting me vent,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #12 (Shedding)

5-20-14

Dear Diary,

OMG furplosion! Sunny is shedding like crazy! It's hard to take her seriously when she's rolling around like a giant furball! ROFL!

But seriously, it's getting out of control! You don't know how many times I've gotten a stray hair in my eye or nose and there's fur on all my stuff! It also makes drumstick attacks a little tricky since there nothing worse than coughing up a pug hairball. Blech!

XOXO,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #11 (Begging)

5-1-14

Dear Diary,

There's only one thing I love more than my toys and Sunny, and that's FOOD! I will do anything for a bite of deliciousness, especially human food deliciousness! It just seems totally unfair that humans get to eat so many different things with fun flavors and textures and then they feed us boring ol dog food.

What is this chocolate that they keep talking about and yet refuse to share with us?! What about sharing some of that yummy smelling garlic and onions getting stir-fried on the stove top?! Feed me grapes like I'm a queen!

Sunny is terrible at begging and just sits in the kitchen doing nothing. WRONG. You have to be loud and aggressive - remind the human that you're there and you want that food! The squeaky wheel gets the oil and I'm always the squeakiest wheel in the kitchen! I also like to make my presence known by digging my little paws into the human's legs, triggering certain pressure points to help persuade the human to feed me. That always gets the human's attention and she'll dance around while making excited noises.

Every day is a new opportunity to eat more delicious things. Challenge accepted!

XOXO,
Rosy

(Human editor's note: Sunny and Rosy do not get fed chocolate, garlic, onions, grapes, or other human foods that are bad for dogs.)

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #10 (Intruder)

4-23-14

Dear Diary,

DANGER! DANGER! INTRUDER ALERT! INTRUDER ALERT!

There is a strange dog in our home! The human and Sunny seem unaware of the stranger or they are so frightened they're frozen in their seats. It is up to me to protect my home and family!

Rosy to the rescue!

XOXO,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #9 (Cars)

4-16-14

Dear Diary,

Everyone always complains about how I'm the bad one on walks because I don't get along with a lot of other dogs. It's not that I don't like other dogs, I just don't like big stranger dogs interrupting our peaceful walks! But the truth is that the real naughty one on our walks is Sunny. That's right. SUNNY.

Today I was taking care of business (you know what I mean ;)!) and suddenly the human and I were yanked to the side because Sunny was pulling at her leash trying to chase after a car. Ugh! Sunny's so selfish! When she has to take care of her business the human and I have to chase after her as she runs around trying to find the perfect spot (she's so picky too!). But when it's my turn, Sunny's always pulling the human in another direction or trying to chase after cars.

I finished my business in the end but I gotta tell you, something doesn't feel quite right.  It just starts the morning off wrong!

I don't understand what's the big deal about cars.  They're not really alive and they never go on the grassy areas where we are.  Not like big strange dogs!

Frowny face,
Rosy

4-10-14

Dear Diary,

OMG it happened today! Sunny snuggled close to me and then while she was half asleep she plopped her muzzle on my back. Squeeeee!!! She loves me! Sibling bonding!

Sisters by chance, friends by choice! We're going to be best friends forever and ever and ever!

Pugs and Kisses!
Rosy

4-7-14

Dear Diary,

Not much new going on here.  Same ol, same ol.  It was a bit drizzly this morning but not too bad.  Still had fun on our morning walk!  I hope the sun comes out today though because I really wanted to sunbathe this afternoon.  Got to work on my tan before summer gets here! :)

XOXO,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #6 (Infection)

4-1-14

Dear Diary,

Uh oh! Sunny's got an ear infection! Her scratching and head shaking all the time is so annoying so I'll be glad when it's gone. Plus I love munching on her wonderfully velvety ears! I hope ear infections aren't contagious - I can't stand having any drops put into my ears and will clench them shut!

I wonder how Sunny's ear got infected???

XOXO,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #5 (Grass is Greener)

3-25-14

Dear Diary,

Yesterday Sunny and I got these delicious chews that our human calls bully sticks.

I HEART BULLY STICKS!

They are so yummy and fun to chew on!  I'd love to have one every day forever and ever but we only get them as special treats every now and then. 

Sunny kept trying to steal my bully stick.  I don't know why though since she had the bigger one!  As the younger sister and baby of the family I really think she should have offered me the bigger bully stick. I tried stealing hers away but she snapped at me.  Hmph!

XOXO,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #4 (Early Wake-up Call)

3-24-14

Dear Diary,

This morning I really really really had to go outside to do my business.  You know those times when you have to go so badly it wakes you up?  Well the problem was everyone else was still asleep and snoring!  I tried waiting for as long as I could, but when you gotta go, you gotta go!  So I gently woke everyone up to let them know I had to go.

Sunny doesn't understand.  She's like a pee camel!  All she wants to do in the morning is sleep and sleep and sleep.

XOXO,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #3 (Neighbor)

3-20-14

Dear Diary,

It wasn't my fault!!

Today this chihuahua kept staring and making mean faces at me as we tried to exit the building for our morning walk.  I really had to pee and this stupid huge chihuahua (he was as big as me!) was blocking our way and making fun of me.  Of course no one was looking and when I tried to get Sunny's attention she just ignored me and bumped me with her big ol butt.

I swear the chihuahua started crouching and growling and I just know he was getting ready to pounce so I had to defend myself!  That got Sunny's attention and of course she took the side of a complete stranger and snapped at me.  ME - HER OWN SISTER!  Our human got mad at both of us and was apologizing to the chihuahua's human.  Whatever!  It was his fault!

NOT FAIR.

Sigh,
Rosy

Pugling Rivalry - Rosy's Diary Entry #2 (Mr. Koala)

3-19-14

Dear Diary,

You know what I love almost as much as food and snuggles?  I LOVE TOYS!

We have so many different kinds of toys because the human is always bringing us more and Sunny and I share everything so we have double the number of toys!  My favorite thing to do is to run around with one in my mouth as I shake it around.  Then I like to find a quiet spot to chew away at it.  Some of these toys are filled with this crazy fun fuzzy stuff inside!  The human doesn't like it when I chew on the fuzzy stuff but that's what makes it even more fun!

Pugs and Kisses!
Rosy

Dear Diary,

Happy Tuesday!  My name is Rosy and I'm three years old and my favorite color is purple.  I have a big sister named Sunny and she's the best!  We get along so great!  Oooh she's scratching herself right next to me so you know what that means?!  Drumstick attack!  YOLO!

XOXO,
