Pugs at the Beach

 In Southern California when summertime hits all the pug meet ups head to the beach!

Also can we take a second to truly appreciate just how many pug groups there are in California... the ones that I know of are the Central Coast Pug Group, LA Pug Meetup, Long Beach Pug Meetup, Newport Beach Pug Meetup, and OC Pug Saturday. Only one of those is not within reasonable driving distance for us. We could be doing a pug thing almost every Saturday! Plus the last Sunday of every month!

Okay back to today. The Long Beach Pug Meetup and the LA Pug Meetup both planned activities at the same dog beach at the same time and day. I don't think they did this intentionally but obviously everyone just ended up joining together. There were over 100 pugs playing at the beach and it was a blast! Ruby LOVES the ocean. She loves to dig in the sand, she doesn't mind the waves, and she is obsessed with playing fetch with shells.

 I follow a lot of pugs on her Instagram account and I was trying to recognize other pugs but it is kind of hard. Mean Mug Pug Ozzy was there and her brother Kubrick. Gidget the surf pug was there. Afterwards I went on Instagram to see who else came and posted pictures.

 Tyler is pretty much amazing. He has about a million things he needs to do at work and he knew how important this was to me so he went. When the meet up was over he went home and showered and then headed back in to work.

Here he is with a bunch of pugs on him.

 In the background of this picture you can see Gidget surfing. Apparently there is a breaker out in the water at this beach so there really were very few waves but she was still able to catch a couple. It was cool to watch up close because you can really tell that she is moving on the board to keep it balanced.

All three of my children were thrown into the tub and hosed down. 

The end of a fun and tiring event for Rubert.
