As many of you know, my bestest bud is Spencer, and we like to play A LOT! When lots of playing occurs, we get a phenomenon that in my house is called "Jowl Juice", and it freaks dad out. See us pugs, in all of our adorableness, have jowls. These jowls are like our own personal purse. We can store (or hide) things for hours in there, and pull them out when we have need. Case in point, dad lets me hang outside in the backyard (shhhh don't tell mom I'm unsupervised) while he does dad things (ie watch Man v. Wild). When he does check up on me (every commercial break) I like to hide that twig I'm chewing on up inside my jowl until he leaves, then I can resume chewing. He's none the wiser and I've got my twig.
But jowl juice is something different all together. It requires water (I prefer a nice cold filtered water) and a bowl of your choice. Next make sure you sniff your water (if anything is floating in it-other than a hot dog-then snub the water...trust me mom's will get you fresh water....just orb her) then if it meets your standard begin to slowly drink the sweet elixir. When possible, expand your jowls, and store. Now the trick is to step away from the bowl (don't worry how much of your saliva is in there...again mom will rinse the bowl and give fresh water..so don't panic) and let all that jowl juice-now a wonderful mixture of water/saliva/twigs/dirt/leaves out of your jowl. Better yet slowly release the juice while walking away thus getting it all over the kitchen floor that dad just moped up. Now I know one (or both) of your parents may give you "the look", but oh well, they are the one cleaning the floor right? If you really want to upset the 'rents, once they clean up and walk away...do it again...hehe serves them right not giving you that extra cookie.
On a side note...I want to wish my friend Anakin a quick recovery from surgery. Poor Anakin has had a rough few day...and it was his birthday to boot. So I ask everyone to please send pawsitive pug thoughts his way and to keep his mom and dad in your thoughts. Anakin, we're all sending you a giant (( Pug Hug!!))
Hehe, my mummy hates my jowl juice to!

Uhm, do all pugs have jowl purses? Or is that just another special Bellatrix feature?? I must know more.
ReplyDeleteI mean, if I had a secret place in my mouth to hide stuff, I'd totally fill it with rocks and woodchips!
Oisin....my dad hates my jowl juice too. But loves me!
ReplyDeleteZoey and Phoebe....Anakin's mom posted that he's feeling better. Getting lots of rest and such. Keep sending good thoughts his way. Pugs are powerful in our thoughts
Puglet,
ReplyDeleteSpencer is fawn and his jowl juice is out of control! Dad would freak out if that was all over our house. His mom says he likes to jowl juice all over their house, isn't that cute? So I think it's a pug thing. Maybe you got small jowls?
Yup... I make jowl juice and share with my faves... it is especially lasting on the windows and mirrors! I think it is just another thing that makes us adorable.
ReplyDeleteHehehe! I make jowl juice and Mom hates it! She steps in its while in the kitchen bare foot and gets so mad. I love how you give tips for hiding other things in my jowls...thanks Bellatrix your pawsome!

PS Tuni doesn't hide anything in her jowls due to her giant tongue...hehehe! She does though flick stuff everywhere!
Oh Spencer, we are adorable and I love your jowl juice. I look forward to sharing some together tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteHiya Sequoia, I'm always happy to share a tip, us pugs have got to stick together. I love that Tuni flicks stuff around, that is so neat. I don't really do that, but I do like it when mom or dad steps in my jowl juice. Good times
