My family and I have a black Chinese pug named “Ol Lady Luck”, or “Lady” for short. She is 8 years old, born on Halloween 2001. She was our first child. We got her the year before our first human child was born. She went everywhere with us. When we would go through a drive-through to get food, lady would get a burger without condiments. She loved to run around the dining room table as I chased her with a broom. She loves squeaky toys and used to howl if you continuously squeaked the toy. She hates to wear fancy dog clothes of any kind, so we do not dress her. She is very sweet and loyal. She is wonderful with the children. They can hug her, squeeze her, rub all over her and she never tried to bite them. She has become over-weight over the years and she has slowed down a lot. She is blind in her left eye which was the result of some kind of injury. She is also very hard of hearing. She has arthritis in one shoulder and paw. But with all of this, we still love her anyway. She is such a sweet girl and has become such a huge part of our family.
