Here are the pugs - Archie, Annabelle, and Reggie.....




This is the Bug, Chip...





And here is the Springer Spaniel, Lilly.....

How did we get this happy family? Archie and Reggie were purchased from different breeders, they are now almost 9 years old. We got a pug because my son, who was 11 at the time, REALLY really wanted a pug. Archie came first, then Reggie three months later. We couldn't have just ONE - pugs are just too much fun!

Annabelle and Chip are rescues from Kentuckiana Pug Rescue. (KPR) (www.kentuckianapugs.com). Check out our website - this is a great organization...

Annabelle is the QUEEN of the household and we ALL do whatever she wants. There are consequences if you don't, just ask Archie and Reggie... I am the President of the KPR board of directors and she is my "spokespug". She goes everywhere I can possibly take her, and usually in her dress and her pearls. She LOVES to get dressed up and go out and represent her fellow pugs in rescue...

Chip is a recent addition - he came to the rescue from his breeder, and I was supposed to be just his foster mom. BUT - we knew he belonged here with us right away, and with us is where he is. Even Annabelle likes him, no small feat, that....

Lilly is my walking companion. We had a Springer before we had the pugs. His name was Sam, and he was a great dog. A couple of years ago I decided that three dogs wasn't enough (??) that I needed a bigger dog that could walk with me in the evenings, and along came Lilly. She is a good girl and she thinks she is a pug because she has been raised with pugs....

So that is our family - Three pugs, a Bug, and a Springer Spaniel. They (and I) have things to say - things to tell you about life here in Indianapolis Indiana - so here we are with our blog! Everyone is asleep now, so we will begin again tomorrow when we are rested and ready to share our thoughts...
