BOL, you have the right idea Emmitt! We have perfected the laser (don't take your eyes of the plate) stare. If that doesn't work we try the 'pleading eyes of hunger' stare and finally there is the 'soft eyes of eternal love' stare - that gets 'em every time! Wags and kisses, Dinah Bridget and Elliot xx
Fuji's strategy is positioning. Like they say in real Estate, location, loaction, location! She is very picky about her spot, and will lay down so as to have visibility of several areas where the humans hang out. That, and she is a shameless beggar.
Oh Emmitt~you must submisshis your snuggly photo to Cute Overload as it is "Redonkulously Adoorabulish"~ and to answer you question on food...well....I pretend I am tired and sit next to the heat register in the kitchen while my mom is cooking...and I sneak crumbs that "mistakenly fall" to the ground..my mama says it is never on purpose tho.. xoxo Jocko
Haha perfect! Gus's nickname is crumpled plastic because the minute he hears anything plastic in the kitchen he is off like a shot! I don't know why.. he doesn't get anything from plastic packages! :)
You are very smart to do that, Emmitt. Here Phantom doesn't really get too excited about meal time unless he is getting some turkey or beef or something like that. But TD always has his radar turned on and he knows exactly when there might be some food available for his personal consumption.
He is so adorable Melissa. I have to say, my little guys must do the same thing because when they sense any action happening in the vacinity of the kitchen, they are there in a flash, no matter how asleep they appear to be. : )
Oh, Emmitt is sooo wrinkly and adorable! I just want to give him a big smooch.
Lucy the greyhound would like to share a great tip with Emmitt: Stick your nose up at your regular kibble! Give mom a pitiful look. Sigh loudly. Mom will first say, "eat it or wait till the next meal, you fussbucket you!" but because you are a 'senior', she can't really enforce that- too softhearted. Next she'll empty the bowl and fill it with something else- something more yummy. Maybe canned food. You may be tempted to eat it up, but hold out! Look sad! Turn your nose away and sigh loudly! Mom will hem and haw, and fuss, and then get out a HUMAN PLATE. She'll fish around in the freezer and pull out a TV dinner, microwave it up and cut it into bits! She'll put it on the plate, along with a cup of flavored yogurt- and GIVE IT TO YOU! First pretend to be curious but wary, but then give in and EAT UP! That is the best way to get the bestest, most yummy food possible. -Lucy :o)
Hi Emmitt i love looking at you with your ear ready to hear every little thing. I don't miss a beat around here. I also have an internal clock that knows when its time to eat- and I kinda get right in your face- and if someone forgot- oh wow- then I get real kissy! love tweedles
I am often inspired to make lots of different art that is not for sale on my website, www.pugnotes.com. I make it because I feel a spark of inspiration that brings me joy from the concept to completion of my project. I would love to share that spark.
This is my blog.
Enjoy!

Nixon likes to bum, but it doesn't work for him. The pugs just look cute for extra treats! Fatty, well, he doesn't need any extra meals.
That is GENIUS, Emmitt, buddy! Why didn't I think o' that???

Woos, TD and Phantom
Ohhh Emmitt..... aren't you the cutest and the smartest?!
You have a nice nap! (I love naps!)

Between you and Howie, I think you could write a book on how to get more food!
kONG WILL GIVE KISSES AND THEN RUN TO THE TREAT CLOSET. iT'S VERY HARD TO REFUSE.

Oh Emmy, you are so smart! And adorable!
I just cry and cry at the pantry door until Momma starts pulling her hair out. It's very effective.

I also have an internal clock that knows when its time to eat- and I kinda get right in your face- and if someone forgot- oh wow- then I get real kissy!
