As many of you may recall, I adopted (Bad) Miss Molly from Ohio Pug rescue in November of 2019. She was my first "foster fail", meaning I was fostering her and then adopted her. Here she is shortly after I adopted her. This picture always makes me smile. She just looks like she's saying, "Mom, please get me out of here".
She ended up having pug myelopathy and was losing the use of her hind legs and bodily functions. She began having seizures and sadly got her pug wings in April of 2023. Those grey faces just melt my heart.
Fast forward to yesterday. I finally welcomed a new furkid in to my life. Meet Harper. She was such a good girl on the hour ride to my house (after having spent three hours in a car heading north from southern Ohio).
Chillin' in the kitchen.
Harper has been through a lot in the last few days. She and her sister were surrendered by their owner Saturday morning. The owner had health issues and couldn't take care of them properly. She spent three days with another OPR volunteer who brought her north. In only three days she became so attached to her. She just wants love and attention. She is very sweet but has come with some baggage as I understand. She "marks" if you walk away to another room and leave her. I haven't left her loose out of my site!!! She currently is in a crate while I work on this post. She is not too happy, but last night she was the bestest girl in the crate. Not a peep and the crate was clean this morning. She also occasionally chases her tail which I was told could be a sign that she was confined to a small area. Thankfully she is easily redirected.
You will be hearing lots more about her in the coming weeks/months. She has a vet appointment next week and at that time a spay will be scheduled. I just hope she does not come in to heat which would delay the spay by about three weeks.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Now I can truly say pug hugs 😊

How wonderful!!!How old is she? and do you think she is missing her sister a lot? She has no idea what a good home she has just landed in.

Congratulations momma. How is she getting along with Fritz's dog?
Aaw I was wondering when you would get a new pup. Harper is a sweetie. She did find her new home. Congrats. Janice
Very happy for you both!
What a sweet pup and I know she will adjust quickly with all the love you will give her. Enjoyed seeing the rugs from the show, so many beautiful and whimsical pieces.
I was waiting a LONG time for this post!!!! Yay!!! Congrats GT! Congrats Harper!! Like Cathy said, she has no idea what little part of heaven she landed in. Those little brown beauty lines on her forehead are just adorable! Hope she gets past the "marking" issue. If anyone can correct her wayward ways, I'm sure it's you LOL. (Weird about the chasing the tail thing...my cats have always done that (other than chunky Rajah). Liza Bean crawls up on my chair-and-a-half (when Rajah isn't there) just to chase her tail there. Could be she's just a weirdo.)
