My new Auntie Melissy SWEATER VEST!

I got an early Christmas present!!!! ANOTHER Auntie Melissy ORIGINAL!!!!
A CADET SWEATER!!!!! THIS sweater is VERY special because it's modeled after Daddy's old Citadel Cadet uniform!
This is daddy waaaaay back in 1987 when he was graduating from The Citadel! Daddy's uniform has SHRUNK a LOT since his cadet days (hahaha) so we couldn't pose for a "twinsies" pic.... but here is a pic of us in front of his Citadel christmas tree!
The Citadel mascot is the BULLDOG, but we're going to let that slide since they also have smushy faces. I'm trying to get him to start a campaign to change the school mascot over to the Citadel PUG, but he's apparently too busy to start his letter writing. Auntie Melissy and Archie (R-Chee!) do such an amazing job with these comfy sweater vests! It's like a wearing a big hug that keeps nekkid pug tummies warm!!!!
SO cozy!!!!!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!! CLICK HERE to go to Melissa's Pugnotes Etsy shop and order your very own yarn hug! They fit PERFECTLY and are nice and warm without interfering with "Pug Business" (if you follow me....) THANK YOU for making me such a perfect sweater Auntie Melissy!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!

    Salinger, you are so handsome in your Citadel sweater vest! Maybe hu-mom will get a Florida State colors one for Mack.

    Drools and licks,
    Minnie and Mack

    PeeS: A pug is awful close to a bull dog. They should definitely change!

    We love Melissa's sweaters, Scarlet has several, maybe even many! They keep her nice and toasty, and cute :)

    Love that your sweater looks your Daddy's Citadal uniform, that's a special honor.

    Sal I'm glad you clarified when your dad was at the Citadel, for a second I thought it was 1927! I was going to say he still looks pretty good for being that old! Snort, snort!

    Sorry, its been a real long month this past week!

    Salpuggy, this here is your good pal Howie. I jest read Maw the riot act cuz she hasn't been staying up with important reading materials sech as your blog. That's a cool sweater dude, and I mean that only in a manly type way. I'm wondering if Aunty Melissy can make one with no holes for Annie, and we can jest slip it over her head and leave her on the dog bed to roll around all day....
    yours most truly,

    Pee Ess - next time you chase summa them geese, catch me one. I heard they taste jest like chicken...
