No, I am not talking about the popular sitcom, but our foster pug LUCY! Lucy came to us from a local shelter on Halloween. She was brought in as a stray with her fawn brother (Lucy is a black pug). They were claimed, however, her owner could only afford to spring her younger brother so Lucy had to stay at the shelter. This was Lucy's lucky day! She had a terrible hernia, which she has had almost all of her six years. When surgery was performed, my vet (Dr. Angel) found that her entire uterus has fallen through a 1" opening in her muscle lining. While she was not in any pain, this certainly could have killed her at any time. She is fine now and is one of the sweetest girls ever! Her only fault is that she likes to dig..I am not sure where she is wanting to dig to, but if she can find a soft spot she is out under our fence in a flash. She has only done this twice and both times our neighbor has found her either sitting on our porch or sitting by the car. I have to keep a watchful eye on her. Both times she dug out in only a few minutes. She is a huge love pug and wants to be your constant companion which I think is why she digs. She also gets along with all of the other pups and doesn't cause an ounce of problems. She is the PERFECT pug!
