Pao Turns Five!

Today our youngest pug, Pao, turns five years old. He's come such a long way from the little bit of fluff we rescued when he was 8 weeks old. I remember that first car ride home so well:

We went straight home, sat on the kitchen floor, and watched him in wonder. He was the first puppy we'd ever had.

Not much bigger than my shoe, but Oh! what a handful!

The Boy and new baby Pao,  in a classic "boy and his dog" moment:

It took a while for the elder pugs to warm up to the puppy:

But they did, and now he's one of the pack:

Happy birthday, little Pao! You grew up to be such a cutie:

And one of the smartest pugs I've known.

Love you forever and back again.

xoxo, your Hoomin Momma
