A Day In The Life Of Cody!

This should be a fun post, it involves one of my favorite topics of conversation: Cody-Man! Months ago I did a post talking about Simon's day to day moments now it's Cody's turn.

Cody has many bursts of energy during the course of each day. Many things excite him and he runs for the nearest toy when he's excited. As soon as the new day begins and the boys are released from their sleeping area he is a tornado of energy. Frantically looking for the nearest toy to rough up. Sometimes he's a little too extreme and the toy goes flying. He's so busy playing each morning that I have to call him into the kitchen to get fed.

Once breakfast is done for the pugs it's time to go on the walk. Cody likes being out getting fresh air. He's completely aware of everything around him during a walk. He notices the birds in the trees, squirrels moving from tree to tree, and people swinging golf clubs at the golf course across the street. He's funny to watch because he does notice so much around him.

After the walk Cody unwinds a bit while watching me roam around the apartment and moving himself to be near me. He may take time for a nap while I'm working out but as soon as I'm done he promptly appears at my side doing his best to earn a tummy rub. Cody's schedule is well balanced between napping, trailing me, and playing. His current fave toy is a Halloween bat that his grammie brought him from Phx. Soon enough it's time for the afternoon walk. Once again he simply enjoys being out. The boys are completely trained that they get a treat after the afternoon walk. Both boys hang out by the closet that houses their doggie items the moment we come back inside. Now if I walk passed the closet and don't give them anything Cody is perfectly content. I assume he thinks, 'oh well maybe next time I'll get a treat'. Leaving the closet area to go about his business. This is certainly not how his little brother reacts.

Right before dinner Cody has recently gotten into the habit of wanting to spend time out on the balcony. Following dinner it's his time to chill. He lays on the ottoman and watches things. Snack time and another walk round out the evening for the pugs. When we come back in from the late walk Cody stays up with me while Simon goes off to bed. Cody typically gets cozy in the living room until I decide it's time for him to go to bed.

Another thing that often comes up in Cody's day is barking. He is a security alarm! Cody will bring my attention to something much quicker and with more vigor than Sime.

One thing is for sure, Cody is a go with the flow type of dog. He's content and comfortable! I've always appreciated how he wants to be present in the day to day activities. He's not overthinking things by wondering what's coming up next he's just present in the moment and sharing it with me/us. I read in a Pug book before I even got Cody that the desire to simply share in day to day life with their owners is a pug trait. I believe Cody demonstrates this pug trait very well!
