The 500 Festival of Pugs

The 500 Festival of Pugs was held at the Boone County Fairgrounds in Lebanon on Saturday, August 8th and was a huge success! Best Friends was represented by both the Carmel and Indianapolis centers and a great time was had by all. There were tons of adorable pugs, puggles and a few other breeds on hand to participate in fun events such as the popsicle-eating contest, the costume contest and Best Shedder...lots of lucky bidders went home with some great prizes in the raffles, and hopefully some of the pugs up for adoption found good homes!

We especially hope Bosley, the special needs puggle, found someone special to take care of him. Although he has a neurological disorder and needs special help, he is such a happy little guy and we wish the best for him. We were grateful that we were able to support Kentuckiana Pug Rescue and look forward to attending the event for many years to come!

Hello all!

It's another busy Monday here at the center for me and my posse! This morning, while out on a nature walk, we discovered some baby kittens and their mama who are living in our woods! I wanted to play, but Mom said no :-( Speaking of kitties, we just finished a great event called Welcome to the Jungle at the Humane Society this weekend, where over 50 kitties found new homes! I wasn't allowed to go because Mom thought I'd be disruptive, but I was proud that my center participated in such a great event! I'm looking forward to the 500 Festival of Pugs this weekend too!

I also have a new friend named Josie who just might give my girlfriend Sam some competition (just teasing, Sam...my heart belongs to you)! Josie is Jennifer's new puppy and so far she is wearing Kingston out--I think he really likes her! Anyway, we had a group playtime together and thought you might all like to see the pictures....enjoy!

Paws and Licks,
Puggle

With the 500 Festival of Pugs approaching, Puggle gets more and more excited! He is looking forward to meeting some new friends and enlarging his posse! He couldn't post today because he is busy with some of the many activities in the center, but he'll be back online soon...

He wanted everyone to know that things were going just great with his gorgeous new girlfriend Sam--right up until she left the center and went home :-( Puggle is waiting for his sweetheart to come and visit him again soon!

Meanwhile at the center, Puggle is meeting tons of new friends thanks to our Summer New Customer special! But because Puggle just can't get enough of new friends, he really wishes more people would come in for a tour and visit him! New doggies get one free night, so come on in soon!

Meet Puggle's Girlfriend!!

Meet Sam my new girlfriend! I met her over the 4th of July holiday, and sparks flew; there were fireworks not only in the sky that night, but also in the kennel when I laid my puppy eyes on Sam!

It was her walk that I first fell in love with-she must really like me a lot too, because she's still here! I hope she stays for a long, long time. Even my Mom loves her! If we can just convince Mom's roommate to let me bring her home I'd be in heaven!

Introducing Puggle and his Posse!

Hi, my name is Puggle and I'm the new blogger here. Unfortunately, the girls have to help me since I do not know how to type. I am a 5-year old tan puggle who enjoys making messes and snuggling. I am looking for a girlfriend who interested in the same things as me.

Lately I have been staying home because I take up a suite that can be used for another puppy, but when I'm here I DO love my biscuits and playing in the field!.

I really hope if I am here when you visit that you will stop by and say hi. I have a couple of my 4 legged friends, Kingston and Cooper, who will be posting as well. We are all part of Puggle's Posse.

Please come and see me soon!

Paws and licks,

Puggle

P.S. The picture above is of some of my new friends I met this weekend, the Christie pug pack!
