Why I Embrace Sleeping With a Snoring Dog
By Mikkel Becker, via Vetstreet

Urban dwellers drift off to sleep to the sounds of the city. Country dwellers, like my parents, nestle in their beds to the soft noises of nature.

When it's time for me to settle in for a relaxing night at home, I can't get away from the sound of a deep vibrato snore that permeates my house, maybe even the neighborhood.

It may be hard to believe that the type of sonorous snoring that calls for earplugs or a pillow over your head could possibly come from just 21 pounds of wrinkled skin and a smashed face, but my Pug, Bruce, can put any congested man to shame.

However, beyond the challenges of getting a quiet night's slumber, I've found that having a dog who snores actually comes with priceless benefits.

Pug Is Stymied by an Open Door

Filed under: ,


Pity poor Cookie. She's not the sharpest knife, is she? That's not a judgement call. Some dogs, like some people, are simply a smidge dumber than others. It's just that as far as door-related obstacles go, it doesn't take a velociraptor's cleverness to figure this one out. Oh well; at least she gets there eventually.

Pug POV

Filed under: ,


What is it like to live life as a dog? This pug's curious owners strapped a camera to him in order to answer that question. So what do we learn from the footage they captured?

Pug Puppies Don’t Care About Zombies

Filed under: ,


The zombie apocalypse is coming, people. Don't think for a second that it's not. Wall Street, global warming, solar flares: none of these crises will mean a thing once the flesh-eating hordes take over. Even the CDC has an official zombie preparedness outline.

But wait. The term "zombie apocalypse" fills us with such automatic dread and panic that maybe no one's ever stopped to think: Do we really even need to care? These pugs don't seem to. And dogs have awesome sixth sense about these things. Ever see one of those videos where a dog freaks out about an earthquake long seconds before any human is able to detect the emergency? If dogs can manage to be blasé about zombies, maybe so should we. Think about it for a minute. I didn't.
