Speakerphone for Pugs
Small Dogs Make Big Waves, Demand Justice, Once and For All

Do you care about your Pug?

The pug is living proof that God has a sense of humor.
Margot Kaufman, American writer

Yes, Pugs. The adorably ugly little clown dogs that King Henry II of France found more entertaining than his court jesters.

Pugs are people too! I said this site was about people who use speakerphone, and I am not straying from this.

Pugs have traditionally been associated with the movers and shakers of history, and are frequently found sitting on the lap of power. For example…

In 1572, Pompey the Pug, the ruler of the Principality of Orange, warned his human, William the Silent, Prince of Orange, that enemy Spanish soldiers were approaching (this was during a war between Holland and Spain). Pompey barked and licked William’s face until he woke up, and both were able to make it to safety. The Pug became the official symbol of the House of Orange. A century later, William’s great-grandson became King William III of Great Britain and introduced Pugs to England.

Josephine de Beauharnis was owned by a Pug, Fortune, who slept on the foot of her bed. On the night of her wedding to Napoleon Bonaparte, Fortune refused to leave the bed—in fact, it was a most unfortunate night for Napoleon, since Fortune bit him.

Winston Churchill’s daughter, Mary, belonged to a Pug named Punch. When Punch became ill, to console Mary and her equally distraught sister Sarah, Winston (whose wife, Clementine, affectionately called him “Pug”), wrote a poem called “Poor Puggy-Wug,” in which he prescribed a remedy to make Punch feel better.

Today, Pugs are in the vanguard of the Speakerphone Revolution.

And for good reason. Speakerphone is a Pug’s best friend. Why, you ask?

Here are several reasons…

• Size ‘em right! The average Pug is really not that much bigger than the average telephone. For her, lifting the telephone receiver is about the same as you lifting your coffee table and holding it to your ear. Do you want to lift your coffee table and hold it to your ear just to be on the phone?
• No Hands to Free! Your Pug needs her hands just to stand up. There aren’t any hands to free in the first place. Speakerphone was built with your Pug’s best interests not only in mind, but at heart. Her little paw can reach high enough to press the "Speaker" button on the phone base.
• Actions Equal Words! Answering a call on speakerphone requires only one motion (hitting a button). Pugs only speak one word (“woof.”) A proportionate match of ability and effort! It’s unfair to ask her to perform multiple functions to answer a call when she’s only going to say one word.

So...you've listened to me rant and rave...now who am I?
