Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #18 (Jailed)

7/25/14

The only thing worse than begin stuck in one small room all day long is being stuck in one small room all day long with a needy Rosy. 

No escape.

NO.  Change is wrong!  Change is scary!  Change is bad!!!

Deep breath.

I must be strong in front of Rosy and show no weakness or sadness.  I will put up with this new coverlet on the bed and wait until fall when we can have our trusty old comforter back.  I pray that this will be a short summer.

MINE.  All these toys are mine.  They were mine before the interloper arrived and they always will be mine.  Every toy that was, and ever will be, in this home is mine.  Rosy may borrow a toy from time to time, but only for as long as I deem appropriate.  Because they are all MINE.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #14 (Imitation)

6-5-14

The only thing worse than having an annoying sidekick following me everywhere and harassing me all the time, is having one that copies everything I do!  I have certain expressions that I've mastered for optimal treat and petting reactions.  I'm known for my trademark tongue sticking out look, called "Boop Steel."  This is MY thing.  And now Rosy has been sticking her tiny tongue out and claiming that it happens all the time naturally.  Well, that is a bald-faced lie!  I've seen her using her paws to pull out her tongue when she thinks no one is looking.  They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery but I say it's the most disingenuous form of sycophancy!

Sometimes at night I see things.  Things no one else seems to see.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #12 (Shedding)

5-20-14

Unfortunately, Rosy and I were subjected to a bath this past weekend. Sigh. And to add insult to injury, we had our nails trimmed too. How am I supposed to repel Rosy's obnoxious attacks if my nails are shortened and dulled?!

Rosy keeps making a fuss about the fur I'm shedding, but I think it's unnatural that she doesn't shed much. Where's her winter coat that she should be discarding now? No wonder she's always so cold in the winter if all she has is her measly single coat of fur. This is just another example of how I'm superior to her, as I have a beautiful plush coat that adjusts for the seasons.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #11 (Begging)

5-1-14

Rosy's young and foolish, as many pups are. She simply bulldozes her way around without any grace. There is an art to begging that requires patience and subtlety.

Rosy can whine, jump around, and paw at the human's legs all she wants. I know the true secrets to getting the good stuff - sit in the human's line of vision and give your best, most pathetic-looking slump and sad face. If needed, add a cute tongue sticking out and/or uncurl the tail.

Works every time.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #10 (Intruder)

4-23-14

Sigh, there she goes again. We can't watch a single tv show, or even a commercial, without my not-so-bright sister going ballistic and trying to attack the tv. How does she not grasp the concept of tv?! Can't she tell the dog on the tv screen isn't actually in our home? At first the human and I found it amusing, but now it's just tiresome.

I think we should lock up Rosy in another room while we watch tv, but the human doesn't seem to be on board with the idea. So I guess we'll just keep watching my idiot sister in her annoying dance of leaping and snapping at the tv. Sigh.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #9 (Cars)

4-16-14

Once again I have protected the human and Rosy from the huge roaring beasts called "cars" that often edge along our land. Rosy's so clueless. She was actually pooping when this attack occurred! I had to rush to defend ourselves and chase away the beasts. I really can't rely on her for help when it comes to important matters like this.

Wherever there is danger, I'll be there.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #8 (Squish)

4-10-14

I've mentioned before the importance of getting quality sleep in my old age.  Well, not only does Rosy disrupt my sleep in the mornings when she wakes up first, she also has this annoying habit of squishing against me and draping her paws over me when we nap. Rude!

Rosy has no respect for her older sister. How would she like it if I constantly squished against her and draped myself over her? Maybe I will do just that and teach her a lesson. Then she'll realize how irritating it is and stop.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #7 (Rain)

4-7-14

It's pouring outside! I was dragged out of my comfy warm bed this morning and thrust outside in the cold rain. Honestly, I don't know how we're expected to do anything in this type of weather. My paws were wet.

WET. PAWS.

Unacceptable! And the wind blew huge raindrops into my eyes so I couldn't even see where I was going. This is uncurled tail down weather my friend.

Rosy of course was happily swimming around doing her business wherever she pleased. Savage.

I of course refused to do my business in such terrible inclement weather. Instead I plan on leaving a nice present for my human on the dry and warm kitchen floor.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #6 (Infection)

4-1-14

Horror upon horrors - I am cursed with an ear infection! I am now subjected to regular attacks by the human with those terrible ear drops. I try not to show weakness in front of Rosy but I can't resist scratching my itchy ear. Hopefully this ailment will pass quickly and I'll return to good health soon.

Yesterday our human gave me and Rosy bully sticks.  She claims they were of equal size, but Rosy's definitely looked bigger!  As the alpha I should get the biggest and best of everything!

I tried stealing Rosy's away but I got reprimanded.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #4 (Early Wake-up Call)

3-24-14

This morning I was rudely awakened a full hour before normal wake-up.  In my old age I need a full night's sleep to be alert and ready during the day.  But Rosy had other plans and annoyingly woke everyone up early, claiming she had to immediately relieve herself outside.  That's what she said, but I noticed that as soon as we went outside she spent a good few minutes sniffing around and growling at other dogs instead of taking care of her business right away.  I call shenanigans!

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #3 (Neighbor)

3-20-14

Today Rosy snapped at a poor lil chihuahua for no reason!  RUDE.  I always like to meet neighbors and exchange pleasantries but I didn't even get a chance to say hello because of Rosy.  Of course I had to step in and regulate my spastic sister and so now my human is annoyed with both of us for acting out in public.  Sheesh, it's not my fault! I was trying to help control the situation!

Rosy is so mean and crazy.  At this rate, we won't make any new friends this year.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #2 (Mr. Koala)

3-19-14

I lost another one today.  Poor Mr. Koala.  He had such a short life here.  I've laid him to rest with the others.  Such senseless destruction.

Pugling Rivalry - Sunny's Log Entry #1 (Intro)

3-18-14

It's been 508 days since the human brought home the annoying lil one she calls Rosy.  I'll never forget that day.  Before October 27, 2012, all was quiet and peaceful.  I never had to share any of my toys or treats.  I never had to compete for prime lap spot.  And I never had to worry about getting humped or having my back legs gnawed on.  Sometimes when Rosy is passed out from her latest manic frenzy, I like to close my eyes and think about the days when I was in a one-dog home.
