For some peculiar reason, it seems that a lot of the nation's top masters swimmers are also pug owners.
Ande Rasmussen, Kristina Ulveling, Heather Rietz, and--well, ah, me--are all owners of at least one and in some cases multiple pugs.
I am hoping to do a little vlogumentary about the curious connection between swimming and affection for flat-nosed little dogs.
If you are, or know, a swimming pug owner, would you consider sending me some photos (resolution 640 x 480 at least) showing you and your quadrapedic wards? Please include your name, your dog's or dogs' names, and any theories you may have about the link.
The photos do not have to show pugs in the water, or wearing goggles, or decked out in a matching Speedo and Zoomers with its owners. But you can certainly send such pictures if you have them.
Send to Jamesthornton1@comcast.net or post them on your FB and/or USMS photoalbums. Just let me know where I can find them, and I will do my best to make your pug famous!
