Please Welcome
The Stunning and Most Humorous Pug Ever
Tuesday the Pug!
The one and only, the fabulous, Tuesday the Pug!
Q) Tuesday, let’s start off by telling everyone a bit about yourself:
A) Hello Miss Edie, hello puguniverse! My name is Lady Tuesday, better known as Tuesday the Pug! I am a rescue, ~9-10 years young and I am living the fabulous pug life in Syracuse, New York!
Q) Tuesday, not a typical name. Tell us more about how you came to be known as “Tuesday the Pug”.
A) You’re right! It is quite the unusual name and I have heard all the jokes! Most commonly, “If you’re Tuesday… what happened to Monday!?” But my name is kind of a strange story. My mom was a child of the 90s, and was OBSESSED with the American Girl magazine. The magazine included the quintessential fashion trends of the average teen, articles about dealing with bullies, crushes, and BFFs, and of course personality quizzes! Thirteen-year-old mom took a silly quiz to determine her “spy name” should she ever decide on a career in espionage later on in life. To determine your name, you’d match the initials of your name to their correlating word. Mom’s initials are KLT, making her spy name, Lady Tuesday (she must have hated whatever the K-word was because she never used it and can’t remember it). She just loved the sound of that and made it her mission that her first ever pug would be named Lady Tuesday. And here I am!
Q) You share your home with your brother Louie, what’s that like, does he try to steal your limelight – and your treats?
Tuesday and Louie
A) Uh, he TOTALLY steals the show! Before Louie came along, I was the baby, the only child, and the superstar. And now.. forget it! Louie has to take everything I love! For example, I use take a few leisurely naps, you know, just to stay sharp. And now, forget it! Every time I try and close my eyes for a wee second of slumber, BAM THERE HE IS! Louie in your face, or licking my ears, or trying to squeeze his fat butt into my bed, or trying to run off with my boyfriend, Mr. Moose. He’s relentless!
And don’t even get me started on snackies! He thought that because he’s taller and faster than me that he gets my snacks.. OH NO! I nipped that right in the bud, quite literally, pretty quick. Now he doesn’t even DARE look at my treats.
Q) Tuesday you have what I like to call “Pugatude”! You have to be one of the most fashion forward pugs out there, where does your fashion inspiration come from?
I’m just a pug in a tutu – being fabulous!
A) You could say that I am a diva, and the older I get, the more I earn that title! Mother thought that I was losing my hearing, took me to Dr. McVet Lady and everything! I tried explaining, “Ma, I can hear just fine, I just not listening TO YOU!”.. Duh…
Who says girls can’t wear suits?
But you asked about my fashion! I pride my puggyself on breaking puggy gender norms. This lady can rock a beautiful tutu one day, and the next, a suit and bow tie! I like my bow ties so much that mother even started a company in my name sake, Tuesday’s Ties! Which by the way, I did not give her permission to use my name, thank you very much #dispuggybettergetpaid! I am extremely fortunate to have mega talented and creative friends that keep me well dressed!
Currently, I have my own closet as I need a place to store all my things, I mean, I have at least 6 crowns! They need to go somewhere! Mom and Dad are buying a house next year and I told them, I require my own walk in closet! AT THE MINIMUM! No walk in.. me no moving!
Q) Do you have any dislikes?
A) I have MANY dislikes! Shall I give you my running list!?
This little puggy does not do rain or wet grass!
- NO TOUCHY OF THE PAWS! Don’t even look at them, in fact, don’t even THINK about looking at them.!
- Wet Grass. How is this even a thing!? My do-not-even-think-about-them-paws shouldn’t ever be touching wet grass. Someone better take my hair dryer and blow on each blade, otherwise, forget it, I’m not going out there.
- Walking. How is this also a thing!? I have got quite a busy napping schedule, I don’t have time to go outside and WALK! I WILL tolerate a leisurely stroll however, as long as I have free-range sniffing parameters. What can I say, this lady likes to stop and smell the roses!
Q) Human bed or dog bed?
A) What’s a dog bed? I sleep in a Queen bed, for the obvious reason that I am a queen. But I as I am a generous ruler, I share it with Louie and my parents.
Q) Tell us something about your pug self that no one knows – we can keep a secret 🙂
It’s soon going to be a very full house when Vito and Bella arrive!
A) Well I can let you in on a little secret! Louie and I are about to double our grumble! You might remember our frenchie cousins, Vito and Bella. Well you are about to see a WHOLE lot more of them because we are about to become housemates! Think of all that snorting – it’s going to be pug-demonium!
Thank you so much to Tuesday, her brother Louie and her mom for sharing their pawsome story and allowing us to interview such Pug Royalty! And a BIG congratulations on your newest additions, Vito and Bella, I can’t wait to hear all the stories and of course see the fabulous wardrobes I’m sure are in store for them!

You’re one awesome, lucky pug. It’s been fun to read your point of view on life, universe, and everything.
July 27, 2017
I love Tuesday’s style and her attitude! Good to see she hasn’t allowed Louie to steal her sparkle!
July 26, 2017
This is hysterical! You couldn’t even begin to get Dolly in one of those outfits but she’s with you on the wet grass! Although, we’re pretty sure you don’t need to be a Pug to have that attitude. Sandra and Dolly
July 28, 2017
Attitude is not just a pug thing – however, I believe they invented it 😉
July 26, 2017
I felt like I was having a real conversation with Tuesday – the attitude is off the charts adorable. Nice graphics
July 26, 2017
This is just too adorable! And what a fun way to share Tuesday’s story! Great pics too. Hopefully we will hear more about her new housemates in the future.
July 26, 2017
What a fantastic interview! We love learning about Tuesday. We think her name is just adorable.
July 26, 2017
Such a great interview. Very informative and newsworthy! You crack me up!
July 26, 2017
Oh Tuesday you ROCK! I love how empowered you are and your fashion sense is PAWSOME! I wish you were on my blog in a dog fashion feature!
I love your name by the way. My brother and sister in law have a dog named Sunday!
Keep doing what you do Tuesday! You OWN IT!
July 26, 2017
really liking the gender fluidity here! Way to go Tuesday! We live in Ottawa and often drive through your home town on our way to other places… maybe if you are ok hanging out with a Chihuahua we could meet up some day and talk fashion.
July 28, 2017
I bet Tuesday would love to talk fashion with you!
July 26, 2017
Lady Tuesday… you are truly fabulous! I LOVE the story of your name too, that’s too cute. I remember that magazine. lol. Love your outfits. Stay fabulous!
July 26, 2017
The Americans have such a passion for dressing their pets don’t they? They look mazing, and the clothes are so cute! I saw a pug once he was so cute I nearly catnapped him but his owner was sat close by so……..
July 26, 2017
Tuesday is too cute for words!! Such a fun post.
July 26, 2017
You HAD me at the adorable pug in costume photos..HAHA…How can anyone resist the adorableness of a pug after all?
July 26, 2017
Tuesday is definitely hard to resist!
July 26, 2017
Yeow! Lady Tuesday sure does have a lot of Pugatude – good for her! I love the story of how she got her name, and I love that she totally rocks the “Menswear Look” – some of you ladies may not be old enough to recall when women’s fashion had a short moment of “Menswear” style for women. where women were sporting ties, pinstriped pantsuits, and other elements of men’s fashion. I think it was the early 80’s. Anyway, LT is awesome, thanks for this wonderful interview!
Love & Biscuits,
Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them

Tuesday has killer fashion sense! That bow tie and vest, OMG!
July 26, 2017
I have yet to meet another pug with such fashion sense!
July 26, 2017
So Tuesday eh? Now we know where you got your name from! Well just like the character that inspired your name, you make quite the fashion statement. Nice pics!
July 26, 2017
I LOVE the story of Tuesday’s name! American Girl was one of my absolute favorite magazines as a kid. Tuesday, I LOVE your style and am SO EXCITED to see that grumble double. Henry doesn’t like his paws touched, either 😉
July 26, 2017
Oh I love Tuesday and Louie! They live in our city, my sister has met them in person, but I haven’t (yet.) I do have one of Tuesdays’s Ties and it is really well made.
July 26, 2017
I had the pleasure of meeting Tuesday and Louie the summer before last when they came to Toronto for Woofstock! To say I was starstruck is putting it lightly 🙂 I have a few of Tuesday’s Ties as well and they are exceptional quality!
