Weekly pug

Alfred The Pug is having a sad day. He's not going to Toronto with me this time. If he could tolerate cats - I would take him, but since he cannot - I have to live him behind because there are 2 of his "enemies" at the studio. And apparently one of them would travel with us back to Montreal. So, we decided not to risk our sanity and have only one animal in the car.
Alfred will stay with Andrey and I hope the two of them will be good boys:)))))

Also Alfred will be 11 months old tomorrow.  Time goes by so fast:)))

I produced this picture to be some sort of a postcard to Andrey for our wedding anniversary. 
I'm pretty content how it's turned out. I like theatrical feeling of it and I absolutely love how Alfred The Pug looks more like some freakish plush toy than a dog (probably because it took us quite a few takes to shoot).

Well, Andrey said it was creepy (and I'm not sure that's a compliment this time) and he needs time to get used to it:)))))
Anyway, happy anniversary to us!

Last days of summer

Another selfie with the pug:)

Yes, I do realize that Alfred The Pug is taking over my blog... But, hey! He is my shadow now:)

They actually fell asleep:)

Hey, Honey...

Just because.

Pug life

What could be better than having a long weekend! Even if I worked Saturday, we still have two days to relax! So we went to Ottawa.
Dogs remembered each other to my huge relief. There was no drama at all, Alfred got accepted right back in the pack (even though Wooster and Ci Da took turns trying to claim his kennel:).

They had long walks in the woods, Alfred measured all the  puddles he could find, and we played with them a lot.

After humans got tired, dogs continued to play tug of war by themselves:)

Tired pug was the best indication of the time good spent:)
