Meet Missy

Missy is in pug-boot-camp. It just irks me when people let their pugs get so fat!!

Still, she's a diva. Her foster mom will get her slim and trim in no time!



I think she looks like an English Bulldog in this one:


Dear DFW, will you help me get healthy again and find my forever home?



Yes Missy, we WILL!!

Aww she's pretty, but a chunk! I am glad she gets boot camp, and I hope she finds her perfect home fast.

She is adorable!!

she'll slim down in no time. Her foster mom has successfully taken off 4 lbs from our other chunka chunka, Barron. He came in at 38lbs...down to a slim 34 (and still losing).

Thank goodness for fosters - angels in my book!

Awwww,she's adorable The other chunky pug on DFW's site I think is so pretty is Lady(or Princess,can't remember)Diana with one peeper . I'm sure they'll both be fit and trim in no time.

It's so sad when people think they are "spoiling" their pugs by feeding them so much when they're truly hurting them.
I hope Missy does well in her boot camp and finds a great home soon!

why do people do this??? She will be in shape in no time! Glad she's in good hands.

Oh, she is very pretty. She'll be cute as a button when she drops about 10 pounds, and she'll feel so much better!

Yes, I agree, why do people let this happen? Don't they see that something is freaking wrong??

What really irks me is when a dog is lean and in shape and people think you're starving the dog

She's a cutie and will look even better with some pounds shaved off. I wonder if your foster home would take me in and help me drop some weight!

lol Christy - I've asked Sandy (foster mom) if she would put me in her boot camp program. She said the secret is she works night shift..LOL no thanks...

Oh..She's a chunky monkey, but super cute!!

Beats me why people think this is okay. I've become a real hag about this issue. Okay, I've become an even BIGGER hag about this issue

Yep. Hear that one all the time. People always think many of our dogs are too skinny. The sad thing is that it means they've never seen a pug at the correct weight......

She's very cute, Allie, but she is really FAT. Tell Sandy "good work".

I need boot camp too!

I am looking forward to the svelte beauty she soon will become.

I have boot camp going for a couple of porky-pugs locally who have slipped inder the radar. One I hadn't seen for 12 months and the other is new to the district. So they have their diet advice from the Mean Pug Mamma and we do walkies together to encourage them (yes I know I MUST take the camera one day).

A certain local wag thinks it hilarious that two slim ladies each have an obese pug and a santa-claus shaped lady (me) has slim pugs. He makes unfunny comments (sniff!)

What I can't understand is that in both above cases they have other non-pug dogs who are in reasonable shape. I daresay the pugs assist in their own expansion, so to speak.

AWWWWWWWW Missy you are BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Poor baby is such a chubster, my golly.

She definitely does look like a bull in that second pic.
Oh diva pug oh diva pug, you are so precious !

May I ask whats best to help her get lean and mean :)
Leia needs to lose a couple kg's. I'm just walking her twice a day, and feeding her Ziwi Peak, worked for Yoda

She is a big girl but she has a darling face. How old is she?

OMG I hear this all the time about Juneau!! Even my own daughter will say that he is too skinny! Yet, he eats the right food, gets exercise every day, has healthy snacks, has a TON of energy, has NO breathing problems and can run like the wind!!! Sooooo.....I should fatten him up for what? Thanksgiving dinner?? Errrr!

Missy is cute! Boot camp works

Aww she is cute, but must be miserable at that size. She totally does look like a bulldog in that one shot!

She is cute despite her chunkiness. Hope she gets slimed down in no time and adopted.
