Meeting Cindy

Today my new human mommy, Cindy, came to pick me up with her grandpa. Mama Abby and Papa Bandit came to see me off. Here they are. It was sad to say goodbye.

Almost home!

Hi everyone! My name is Mickey but I hear that my name is going to be changed to Buddha. I guess I'll figure out why after I meet my human mommy. Right now I live in Bunceton, Missouri with my mom and dad and brother and sisters. A nice lady namd Lori is taking care of me.

My life began on a cold day in February. February 1, 2007.

Here's a picture of me as a newborn baby:

I look kind of weird, but what do you expect? I was surrounded by a bunch of other pugs, my brother and sisters, and I was a bit overwhelmed.

Here's a picture of me, trying to push through my siblings:

I'm going to miss my sisters and brother, but I think that good times are ahead.

I hear that my new mommy is a photographer. I guess I'll have a camera in front of me all the time!

Here's my daddy, Bandit:

Handsome, huh? Everyone says I'm going to look just like him. I hope I get his eyes.

Here's my mommy, Abby:

She loves to eat popcorn and I hear my new mommy loves it, too! I hope she lets me eat some.


Well today is Monday and I go to my new home in St. Louis on Saturday, March 31. I am nervous and excited at the same time! And I can't wait to find out why my name is Buddha..
