Schedule change

So one day this week, Julian decided that he does not want hard food/moistened for Breakfast...he'd rather have soft food and hard food/moistened for lunch & dinner!

He also decided that he should sleep a little later than me (I am up @ 4) and he decided 8ish would be good for him so he could snuggle with Alli (my 10 yr old)...

Is this normal...do pugs just change like that?

(He also had a vaccine on Saturday...pre-medded, he spent the whole day there to make sure he was OK...do you think this has anything to do with it????)

perhaps he is worn out... or still recovering from his Dogtor Day...

It can happen... "roll" with it, I say!

You have a pug who wants to sleep later than 4:55 a.m.?

Linda,

when he changes, I start worrying....I'll get it sooner or later

Wise words: Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.



Quite possibly he has just worked out that he has a choice:

(a) trot around after you while you bustle about getting ready for the day, or

(b) snuggle in luxury and snooze with a nice warm bedmate for a few extra hours.

Most pugs I know would either go straight for (b) or a combination in which (a) is followed by (b) as soon as no futher food is forthcoming....

Angela is right.

When I get up, if hubby stays in bed, so do the pugs. But, if I get up, and no one is there, then the pugs get up too. They stay in bed until the last person is up, lol!

Are you still feeding him 3 times a day? I can't remember, how old is he now?

It doesn't hurt a healthy, well-fed pug to go without a meal or two if that is what he did to you. He'll learn YOUR routine if you stick to it. Plus, you can probably cut back to twice-a-day feedings if he's almost a year (or more than a year) old.
