Weekend Houseguest

That's ME (Salinger) on the left, Maggie in the middle and TobyPants on the right! It's like 9393845943387478493 degrees here in Indy this weekend, so we're chillin' out here in the AC and demanding treats from mom every 30 seconds. Happy Memorial Day weekend everyone!!!!

WTF Wednesday....fill in your own caption!

Holden and Toby....WTF????

I don't have a clue either....let the captions fly!!!!

No, we're not TWINS...we're TIGERS!

Hi again!!! So part of being brothers now is that little kids will stop us while we're out and ask mom "OOOHHHH ARE THEY TWINS???" Mom just laughs and tells them that we're brothers from another mother AND we're not from Minnesota anyway! Mom and Dad got us a whole bunch of matching collars, so we'll be modeling them from season to season. Here's something from our SPRING collection....

GO TIGERS!!!!! See? We're not TWINS!!!

We're fine!!!!

Holy CRAP! We haven't posted anything since JANUARY?????? Maaaan....that's really lame of us! We have a ton of excuses, but we'll spare you the boring details about mom working too much and her getting a new computer where she can't find anything (ie PICTURES). We promise that we're GREAT and Toby and I are best buds now. Here's a video mom took of us just this morning! SEE? We're all good and just carrying on with our normal jackassery!!!! You may notice that I (Salinger) have lost about 3 pounds since Toby has been here (I have to chase him!) and Toby has GAINED about 3 (which he NEEDED....he was all skin and bones from his time on the streets!). Our vet says that we're "helping each other out"! Mom says that she'll try to be better about blogging for us! Love and PuggyKisses to all! Salinger and TobyPants

Playing like BROS!

OK, ONE of these days, we'll get back into a normal blogging routine, but for NOW...please enjoy the latest Salinger/Toby video!

The Fall of the House of Gingerbread 2011

Hello friends!  Salinger T. Pug Esq. back in my rightful position here at the keyboard today!  As some of you may remember, each year my human brother Holden creates a cool gingerbread house that we keep out on display during Christmas and then DESTROY together in some sort of fabulously spectacular fashion.  Check out previous destruction HERE and HERE.  (Go ahead....we'll wait!)


So after mom put away all the Xmas tchochkies and clutter, Holden took care of the gingerbread house...

Notice ME all adorable and posing nicely for the camera while Toby (the RUBE) is all busy huffing the farkakte gingerbread house!!!

Ok....ready??????  Here it goes!!! MMMMMM!!!  Destruction is YUMMY!!!!!

Tough Guy TobyPants!

                         HEYA there youse guys! It's me...

                 TOBY PANTS!!!! I'm Salinger's kid brudder (and I sound like Joe Pesci!)

 

I gotta tell ya what I did today! See this here STUFFIE????.......

I KILLED IT I DID!!!! Yeah....you heard me! He had it comin'!!!! Squeaker and guts...ALL OVER the living room floor!

 

My big brudder Salinger came in to see me chewin' on this here dead stuffie's BUTT!

                                                        He was none too pleased!

 

This here is a picture of him asking what the EFF is wrong with me. Heh heh heh!

I told him I didn't like the look on that stuffie's face, so he needed to sleep with the fishes!

Don't mess with TobyPants!!!!! 

Interview with the Pugs

Hey everyone! Today it's MOM (Laura) at the keyboard. I am so so so sorry for the lack of posts and updates with our new family member (Toby), but the last almost two weeks have reminded me of those first surreal days home alone with a new (human) baby.

Toby is a PERFECT little pug and fitting in so nicely with us! Salinger is being a bit turdlier than usual and is a bit jealous and has even started MARKING around the house (ai yi yi!). I REFUSE to put them in belly bands (because we have this awesome custom built doggie door!) so I just follow them everywhere and get ready to pounce if I see a leg start to lift. I'm lucky to get a real shower every day (usually with the curtain open so I can see what they're doing) and am still balancing work on top of all this. LUCKILY I work from home or I would be an unemployed MESS of a Crazy Pug Lady right now. SO....until I can put something better together....here's a video of me "interviewing" the boys after they received a cool new toy from Julie (from The Pug Corral). Thank you ALL for the sweet words, encouragement, commisserating, support and laughs as we've brought sweet Toby into our home! I promise to try and get better with blogging and let Salinger have the keyboard back. I know he's much funnier and more interesting than I am!

Toby's FIRST McCheesyBurger

Hey there youse guys! This is TOBY here at the keyboard today!!!! GUESS what I got today???? A MCCHEESYBURGER!!!!  My big brother, Salinger, has been telling me all about these magical meat sammiches and Mom brought us home one to share! It was SWELL, I tell ya....just SWELL!!! ***MOM'S NOTE*** Most of you probably know that Salinger speaks with a deep voice and a British accent. TOBY speaks like a cross between Joe Pesci in Goodfellas and one of those young 20's wiseguy gangsters. Just FYI to make your reading experience more fun.

Indy Pug 500 Living Room Race!!!!!!

After a bit of a rough night....Day 2 with little brother Toby was a good one.   We even had some FUN tonight!

GENTLEPUGS, START YOUR ENGINES!!!!!

OMG Toby is a Whirling Dervish!


LOOK!!!!!
  
He must have some stories to tell from his Turkish Days! Perhaps that's one of the places he wandered when he was homeless. Hmmm....interesting!

New Year and NEW BROTHER!!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!!!! SO sorry we've been away, but Mom needed a bit of a break over Christmas and also had work coming out of her eyeballs again. SO....big changes for us here at TheLazyK for 2012! I HAVE A LITTLE BROTHER!!!!!

MEET TOBY!!! His full name is Tobias Flenderson Funke Kelley (a wink and a nudge to all The Office and Arrested Development fans out there!). Both our vet and the vet his sweet KPR foster family took him to think he's maybe between 2 and 3 years old. He was found wandering around in Kentucky and was picked up and taken to a KILL SHELTER where he was sprung on his "due date" by his sweet foster family, Jeni and Ryan in Louisville **blows kisses***. Mom transported this little dude before and just fell in love with him, and she and dad have been talking about him non stop since then!



Mom and dad have been working hard to get pics of us together since my kid brother came home yesterday, but they're all blurry or we have psycho eyes, so this is ALL we have for right now. We both snorted some crack (hahaha) and both rode on mom's lap for the trip back home.

"Hey dude....now let's get some stuff straight....I'M the BIG BROTHER....I'M the boss....capisce???"



Holden took this shot of mom taking Toby from Foster Mom...it's the official handoff pic!

We laughed and said Toby looks like Baby Simba in The Lion King!

"THE CIIIIIIIIIIIIRCLE OF LIFE!!!!"



We all just adore Toby....here he is with his other big brother...Holden

EVERYPUG should be so lucky to have a big bro as awesome as Holden!!!



He got to help Daddy drive the car home too! Toby is a VERY good driver!

"TEN AND TWO POPS! TEN AND TWO!!!!"



Today, Toby had his first visit with Dr. Graves!

He whispered to Toby and told us that he was a "Great Little Pug" and that I should be a nice big brother to him. I'm going to try my best. I know the kid was dealt a crappy hand early in life, so we're going to take good care of him and I promise not to be too turdley toward him.

On that note...here is a pic of me enjoying my FIRST McCheesyBurger of 2012! I didn't have to share either!!! NOM NOM NOM!! Happy New Year everyone!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Daddy!!!!

Today is DADDY'S 47th BIRTHDAY!!!! Daddy's birthday is one of my most favorite holidays because he usually takes the day OFF from work to spend it with MEEEEEEE! I started his day off with THIS birthday greeting... CLICK HERE AND MAKE SURE YOUR SPEAKERS ARE ON!
(many people are surprised to hear that I speak with a British accent!)




After we had some atomic snuggling and tummy rubs, Mom and Dad went to THE DINER here in Pendleton for breakfast...

A birthday candle in his toast!!!!




I borrowed Mom's magic plastic card from her wallet and bought daddy the coolest birthday present EVER....

I THOUGHT I was ordering him an EYE PAD so we can play PIRATES together, but this farkakte box with a picture of an apple on it came instead. Dad screamed and yelled and seemed to really like it a LOT, so I just acted like that's what I meant for him to have.





Ok, back to some more birthday snuggling and cuppycake sharing...

NOM NOM NOM!



Please CLICK HERE for more of Daddy's birthday posts! There are some really good pics! . . . . HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!!!! You are the best daddy in the world and I'm SO glad that I picked you to be mine when I was a baby!

I LOVE YOU!

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!!!!

My appointment with the FatMan!

Mom took me for my annual appointment with the BigGuy today.

I told him I'd been a good boy all year and therefore expected the following....


1. Cashmere doggie bed for napping

This scratchy regular variety of COTTON cushions and pillows with sub-par thread count in my comfort collection are wreaking HAVOC on my tender PugButt!




2. The Judy Garland Box set

Only because she's FABULOUS!!!



3. Unlimited FULL Jif jars

NOT the farkakte EMPTY ones that mom occasionally tosses my way!



4. Cheese. Lots and lots of cheese.

Any kind except that stuff with the blue mold in it. Mom fed me a taste of that once and I'd rather eat lawn sausages.



5. My own vehicle WITH 24/7 on call driver to take me shopping and to McDonalds for McCheesyBurgers ANY time I want.

If I waited for MOM to take me every time I felt the need.....I'd NEVER get anywhere!


I think that about covers it. What are all of YOU asking Santa to bring you for Christmas????
