Ernie's Tuesday

Hi there! Poor me...I have had a cough for a couple of days. It started on Sunday and Momma thought it was because I was pulling on my leash too hard at Petco. I wore a Colts shirt (with #18 of course) so everyone would think I look especially cute matching Momma since she was wearing her Peyton Manning shirt. Then yesterday I kept coughing even more. I was sounding like Momma when she has bronchitis! Well, she did some research on dog coughing and she's pretty sure I got Kennel Cough, but we don't know how I got it. Besides the nasty cough, I've been feeling like myself. Momma was pretty worried by last night because every time I tried to bark I just coughed. She was going to call the vet today, but the cough is already starting to go away. Daddy told her I was barking this morning and driving Sam crazy, but hardly any cough at all. As you can see in this picture, it didn't slow down my appetite! I can fit my WHOLE face in the bowl! Eli was pretty hungry too...
Pippin always greets Momma with a toy when she gets home from work. He loves his stuffed soccer balls!
We all love to snuggle together, except for Jasmine. Her favorite place is on Daddy's pillows!
Bernice and Eli sure look cute snuggling together. Momma calls Bernice "Wiggle Worm" because she's little and her whole body wiggles when she wags her tail!
Here we are watching the Colts game on Sunday. We all have to get as close to Momma as we can! Don't I look handsome in my Colts shirt? Momma said they got it for Sidney when he was their only pug. I still can't believe they had only one pug! Good thing we're here to keep her from looking crazy with only one pug!!!
Here's little Wiggle Worm again...
Eli found the stuffed squirrel...
You can see I'm happy that the Colts won...
Pippin loves Jasmine. They snuggled together this morning when Momma was getting ready for work...
The other 3 of us were hanging out, waiting for Momma to leave the room so we could go running after her...it's our fun morning game: Pug races through the dark hallway!
We saw it snowing earlier today, but by the time Momma got home and let us out, it was more like rain that froze when it hit the ground. Everyone is home safe now, so we're glad about that, but we didn't like going outside! I hurried back in the house as fast as I could!
We're going to make Momma sit on the couch now so we can snuggle with her. I feel much better today, but I need more snuggling. I think that's what made me get better so quick! Momma kept giving me extra snuggles yesterday!
Pug hugs and kisses!

We LOVE the "pile o' Pugs" pics! It ALMOST makes us want to add another one....almost!

Someday, Salinger will hopefully have a brother, but not just yet!

YAY COLTS! We watched too. Daddy said it shouldn't have been THAT close! I have a #18 jersey too...WHY hasn't mom posted any pics of me wearing it? I must get on her about that!

Stay warm puggies!

Love,
S-Dog

Hi Ernie!
You are so sweet! You look very handsome in your jersey! I hope you are feeling better now with no more coughing.
I love love love the snuggling pictures of all of you!
I am like Pippin - I greet everyone with a toy in my mouth!
Love Clover xo

Ernie, I am so so sad that you have been coughing! I hope you are snuggling reaaaaaaaally hard today!

I love all of the snuggly pics of you guys. Mom brought another pug to meet me one time and I was 'scary aggressive', Mom says. She learned later that she shouldn't have just brought it into our home to introduce us. Anyway, I would love to have a sibling! We think about it a lot...

Have a great day!!

Hi Ernie, I am glad you are feeling better. You had a very busy day for a sick pug! Mom has the flu and she only wants to lay down and rest. I jump over her to play, she is so lazy!

I's glad your cough is going away! That's a great jersey, even though we's Saints fans we root for the Colts. Is Eli named after the other Manning brother??

Our favorite Manning jersey is #8!!!
