My New Puppy. So cute!

I don’t usually post personal content, but for a puppy, I’ll make an exception. I mean, who doesn’t like puppies?

On Wednesday we picked up our new Bugg (Boston Terrier / Pug cross) puppy and brought him home. He’s named Gir (pronounced grrr), both because he acts a bit like GIR from Invader Zim, and just because I think it’s a cool dog name. Bobi says she’s going to try to make him a green GIR suit one day, though she won’t let me name our future cat Pir. 🙁

Sleepy Gir.

Gir helping with drywalling. (if you’ve been to a Flash conference in the past few years, you’ll probably recognize the makeshift leash)

He’s an awesome dog. Really playful and cuddly. Seems really smart (already coming and sitting on command at 8wks old and only 5 days of training). I will be happy when he starts sleeping through the night though… *yawn*

  1. Of course dogs rule.. and I see the (mt) branding is already on him. haha

  2. He looks wicked!!!

  3. I just want to know why you didn’t name him gDog… or gDawg? Too obvious?

  4. A boxer! Good choice! My sister has two of them and boxers are a lot of fun! (I’m a cat person though 😉

    What a sweet pup!

    Fantastic.

  6. Now that’s a fine looking hound! Congratulations on the new addition to the family. Of course he’ll need a nice warm jacket to make it through those long winters in Edmonton.

  7. Congrats to the new Skinner member! I can remember my pup, i hop you get more sleep then i did!

  8. Does he know what a variable is yet?

  9. Does that dog really have a Media Temple harness dealio. Damn he’s stylin.

  10. i think instead of a ‘bugg’, you should call it a ‘perrier’.

  11. that is a dang cute dog. I used to have a “pound hound” that when asked she was a “nukinfutzhund” (pronounced “noo-ken-footz-hoond” w/a german accent; aka nuckin’ futs hound)

    anyway….nice diversion from the rest.

    thanks for sharing
