Several years ago, before the realities of apartment-hunting with multiple pets set in, Becky promised to buy me a pug as a graduation present when I finished law school. But alas, given that we were barely able to find a place in Knoxville that would allow us to have three cats and a dog, and given that we may well be moving again in the next year or two, getting a second dog seemed exceedingly unwise at the moment. So yesterday, we found an alternative solution: we bought a goldfish and named it “Pug.”

So, there he is, ladies and gentlemen: my Pug. :) You can see a wider view, showing Pug’s tank, here.

Good lord. You’re going to need to have your house rezoned as a farm or petting zoo or something.

Dude, it’s Tennessee. Everywhere is zoned for farm.

Since you and Becky are TOTALLY into dogs, I think I should introduce you to Caperino & Peperone, or Cap & Pep, which are canine creations by Kuntzel+Deygas, which are often seen at the Colette concept store in Paris. They have a cute recap of their French commercials for the store, just clique on the start button at www.monocle.com/culture/kuntzel_and_deygas_cap_and_pep.php
I absolutely love the Cap & Pep things I’ve gotten at the store.

P.S. That poor little goldfish looks bored or lonely. He/She need friends and playmates!

It’s a goldfish, i don’t think it CAN get bored

With their luck, the goldfish will spawn, and they will be overswum? with guppies (Not puupies, guppies!)

MumZ, you are so funny. I’m thinking they may have their OWN puppies ;)!

Oh, and the THEY I refer to is Becky and Brandon.
P.S. David K., if Britney Spears can get bored, then a goldfish can get bored.
P.S. Jay, you are so funny. Al Gore should hire you to write jokes for him.
