How I Became Mom's "Pink" Dog

Mom has NEVER liked the color PINK
her favorite colors are green and purple
but...

 you may have noticed that I
wear a lot of PINK


 Two years ago something happened

 
 
 
After having her yearly check up
Mom was told she needed a biopsy

 
 
Two days before the start of
Breast Cancer Awareness Month
 
 
Mom was told she had breast cancer
 
 
Then not only did she not like PINK
she HATED PINK
Trying to come to terms with the Big C diagnoses
and PINK was in her face everywhere she went.
 
 
Surgery was scheduled and followed soon after
 by 6 weeks of radiation treatments



It was then that Mom began to realize
just how lucky she was
 
 
 She does her wellness check ups every year
 so her cancer was caught early

 She has a family that loves her and needs her
and she will be here for them
for a long time to come


 
  Mom realized that during
 Breast Cancer Awareness Month
she can let people know that
early detection saves lives

so she decided
 to embrace the color "PINK"

 
 and that
 is how I became Mom's "Pink" dog.


Dear Furiends!
 please make sure your loved ones
educate themselves about breast cancer and the importance of mammograms if they are over 40,
earlier if there is a history of breast cancer in the family.
Early detection can make such a difference!

In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month
we are having a little giveaway!

From the Café Press Shop of
we have
12 pug w/pink ribbon mini buttons 
(1” diameter) to send out to our friends
 

They look great on a blouse, lapel, or pinned on a hat (that’s where Mom’s human son wore his).
Maybe you want to show support for someone close to you that is battling this disease
or just want to help spread awareness. 
Maybe your peep is a survivor like our MOM.
  We need our peeps to take care of themselves
so they can take care of us!

Just leave us a comment between now and Friday
letting us know you would like a button

If we have more than 12 requests we will draw names,
this is open to all of our friends!
We also our going to join our friend
for wear PINK Tuesdays in October
