Well, we'd have to move to Boston, but ok.

My joy at this thread is only offset by the awareness that the otherwise smart & charming mr_crash_davis is sure to show up & spread nasty pejoratives about the world's greatest breed of dog.

Crash never met Marty I am guessing.

Obligatory Beedogs post, but don't start moaning just yet - take another look to see how the number of Beedogs have mushroomed - to a swarm! (there's now a couple of Ladybugdogs too...).

A coworker dressed up her pug in a little cowboy outfit. Everyone cooed.

I kicked that dog every chance I got.

Large face + tiny body = bred to be a cute toy.

I'm not sayin' they're not cute, just that they are so by design (as all dog breeds are the product of craft).

Jonson, Twinkie, congratulations on finding your bliss! I'd love to help plan the ceremony, right down to ringbearer and the cake.

Pugs are so cute, and so hideous at the same time. It's an incredibly interesting phenomenon.

Love the link.

At last, a practical application of intelligent design.

And just remember folks, you don't own a pug, a pug owns you.

I love pugs so much! This made my week.

It wasn't enough to torture the animals via breeding now they are dressed funny too. Is it any wonder they look so sad?

Pet owners are second only to parents in terms of nastiness perpetrated out of love.

Sniff. It's not THAT cute</beagle lover

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But what about pugs* in Elvis jumpsuits?

* Note: This Mr. L. L. C. Jack Aujla-Milloy, my pug, the greatest example of the most noble and perfect breed of doggie.

Yes, but these have hats.

Would that make Jack the "Black Pug Elvis" or the "Black Elvis Pug"?

All he needs is the sideburns. I'm sure he already has the karate moves down.

Pugs! Puggly goodness forever!

Aww. This so made my day :)

Pugs are ugly and defomed-looking. And ressing pets in costumes is no longer entertaining. It won't be acceptable after this decade and your future children and grand children will surely look back on these pictures and see just how depraved these times really were.

Is that what you want? For me to admit that these dogs are cute, because I give, I give, I admit it, they're damn cute.

My formative experience with a pug was a very friendly and very elderly (read as: ancient) girl with an underbite and missing teeth. She was absolutely ugly. She looked like a gargoyle, seriously. When i asked her name, i was told it was Rosebud. When i inquired if they were fans of Citizen Kane or just had perverse sense of irony, they explained that when she was a puppy she had a skinny little body, and a big wrinkled head and that she looked exactly like a rosebud.

i've liked pugs ever since.

Great find jonson.

Oscar loves you all, even those of you that mistakenly don't love pugs.

For those of you who want pugs some day, just remember you have to clean the food out of their face wrinkles.

I don't think pugs will survive after mankind.

As someone who has had his pug, um, express his anal glands on me... well, let's just say the daily wrinkle check is a cinch.

Thems some ugly dogs. You can dress up a pug, and it is still a pug.
