Isabelle
Our friends in San Francisco have two pugs. Isabelle was the one of the two who was kind enough to sit still enough for a photograph.

aww she's cute! by the way, the story about "C", was frickin' hilarious. I never laughed so hard while online, not even at an email.

oh my, that's so cute!

Awwww. Cute. My fiance's desperate for a pug. But as we're temporarily living with his parents and his Mum (Yes, I'm british, so I say Mum) says no, we have to wait.

isabelle looks like she doesn't take crap from anyone. i'm sure my dog would get on her last nerve. and i have to agree with sab about the "c" story. i read it to my roommate and we died laughing.

My grandpa got a pug a few years ago, and I swear they look exactly alike. Same wrinkley faces, same expressions. The only difference is that Duke (the dog) snorts out copious amounts of doggy snot all the time.
My advice for anyone wanting to own a pug: Stock up on paper towels and Windex.

Hmmm, I appear to be the only person who thinks the dog is hideous. The picture is good, as always, though.

Nice smile.

yes, hideous. but that's the entire point of their charm. they're so ugly you have to love them!! that one is cute though, showing her teeth like my dog does. my dog will then bite people on the nose, but i think she thinks she's giving kisses, it's hilarious.

The Former Congressman is much cuter! That C story has caused me to startle my co-workers with laughing....

Pugs are the second cutest breed of dog ever. I can't resist pulling on those curly tails. Only Boston Terriers are cuter.

angel, you aren't the only one....that dog is way ugly...and dooce i agree with you...airplane poopers have ISH....

im a dog lover, and i agree that this dog is tremendously ugly.
09.17.04 - 05:31 AM / 13Weez said:
Yes, thanks Heather. The C story made me laugh so hard I spewed my coffee all over my keyboard & desk. Note to self: swallow coffee before reading dooce.

Of course, I do prefer a fluffy little puppy. I don’t know why I also just adore cranky old yuck dogs. I love your rotting teeth, you scary pug! I will kiss that wrinkle between your glowing devil eyes, and you will bite my nose.
It will be great.
Thanks, photo/poop lady.

pugs are so adorable, i must agree that it's the distortion of their faces that make them so cute!
story of C is freaking hilarious! i type this as i snort and giggle in the corner staring at my laptop...thanks!

OMG ... I just spit coffee on the monitor AGAIN! I so feel for C., but I can't stop laughing. Oh, it hurts. The laughter really hurts.
09.17.04 - 06:01 AM / 17Andrea said:
OMG I went through just about the same exact thing as C. when I was in my 8th month of pregnancy at a shipyard I worked at in southern California. The only god awful difference was that I caught myself just before I passed out and got someone to call an ambulance for me. So there I was being hauled out of there in front of all to see with my underwear still wrapped around my ankles and the big bad MF turd in mid-progress where it just stopped to look around before taking the 'plunge'. I saw many faces looking at me in the ambulance crinkling up their faces looking at me wondering what the hell happened. Yeah, try going back to work the next day...

"you lookin' at me? you lookin' at ME??"
that is the ugliest dog I've ever seen. so ugly that she's cute. does that make sense?
09.17.04 - 06:03 AM / 19ksea said:
I would laugh all the time if that dog were around.
09.17.04 - 06:09 AM / 20m said:
The dog is darling. And regarding C's story: surely, if a coworker had walked in and seen someone PASSED OUT ON THE FLOOR, they would have taken action. Unless C works in the meanest office in the world. I think the fact that he came to alone pretty much guarantees that his incident was without witnesses.

Yup! So ugly they are cute. I have 2 pugs myself (Missy & Spike) and I am amazed Isabelle sat still long enough for you to take this picture. My dogs see the camera and run to eat it. The best time to take pictures is when they are sleeping (very Cute).

Does this dog remind anyone else of Lucille Ball in her later years?
09.17.04 - 06:19 AM / 23Laura said:
Isabelle says "Go ahead...make my day." I yearn for a cute, tiny dog.

I love dog feet and their bottom teeth - all of which are visible here so A+. Anybody else find that dog feet tend to smell like Frito's?

Adorable picture- I love pugs!
Amen to the travel poop... when I was younger, I went to Europe for a month. I got sick the first few days, and then did not poop for 3 weeks. My mother just about fainted when I finally told her at the end of the trip, and I had an epic battle with the toilet when I returned. Thanks for the stories- you always make me laugh!

Pugs are SO CUTE!!! They're so fat an ugly! --And cute!

I can't decide if I absolutely love pugs and think they're cute, or if I think they look like big mean rats. I think I want a shar-pei.

oh man ... poor C.
09.17.04 - 06:48 AM / 29Rabooka said:
Mish,
My pugs feet smell like fritos too!
