and they say pugs cant swim.....pfffffffft


So everyone kept telling my people that pugs cant swim.. we are so muscular that we just sink like rocks....... that they went out and bought me this stupid life jacket......way to make me feel like a mummified child with 6 scarves wrapped around his neck... to go build a snowman outside for 20 minutes.....(well.. this has never happened with me but you get the picture ).....so....as compliant as I always am.... i let them put it on......so... just despite them... I decided i was not going to swim at all in it... serves them right for spending their money on something so ridiculous.....note the back legs.......thats right... they are doing NOTHING.....i also proceeded to let my head down... so the water was just at nose level.. this is another version of the "freak out the parents" game










So..... after this horrible event of embarrassment (there were two dogs swimming all on their own a few docks down.... i was like the kid on his bike for the first time with a helmut, wrist pads, knee pads, elbow pads, bum pad, saftey goggles.....you know) I decided to show off... and swim ALL ON MY OWN

As the proud roommate of a Pug, Oliver, I have to say this is one of the most enjoyable blogs I have come across in a while. Go, Ella! And she does have just the prettiest little face!
