Coco Meets Other Pugs

Our girl is a feisty one. The last time she met a neighbouring dog (at the office), despite his being 3 times her size and double her height, she still managed to scare him off (so he now runs away from her) by jumping up at him.

Today she met the other two pugs on the estate - and boy was she put in place! James, the owner has a 4 year old black pug and a younger fawn and I think the fact that she had two much larger fellow pugs being VERY interested in her, she was reduced to lying flat on the floor and trying to run under my legs!

Bless her cottons. We had to laugh as the boy pug Stanley essentially nudged Coco over on her back and begun to snuffle at her belly. No barks or whines - just intense looks of "BEHAVE" from her elders hehe....and ever since then she's been docile as a...well a sleepy Pug.

If I'd had my phone on me, I'd have taken pics of them frolicking together as it was so funny. I'm also mildy scared by the fact that she'll end up being about 3-4 times bigger than she is now - how ever will I carry her in my arms?

Then again - if Jessica Alba can manage to wander about holding her mahoosive pug, I'm sure I can manage to hold mine.

PS - I don't want to gripe but I am absolutely loathing the people on the street who think they have the automatic right to stop Coco when I'm trying to get her to walk properly / concentrate on toileting (c'mon you know how hard it can be!) to play with her, or get her excited by wiggling fingers in her face. I shot such a dirty look at a couple earlier who went to each other :

Woman: "Oh look at the little pug!"
Man: "Aww - do you want to stop and pet it?"

...I was like - errm yes she is amazingly cute but who the F**K do you think you are to ask your girlfriend if she wants to touch someone elses pug. Not even a "May I pet your puppy?" just an assumption that they can. I am incredibly crabby over such incidences as I feel that it's invading our personal space. One would not expect another person to go petting one's child, so why any different for a puppy? ARGH!!
