Our cats are just a bit of a year older than our pugs. When the pugs were puppies and wanted to play with the cats, they pretty much ignored them and/or warned them off. A few months ago, our little Mindy decided that maybe she'd deign to play with the pugs once in a while, especially our little black male. Not so fast though as far as the pugs were concerned. He pretty much gets the expression the dog had with the kitty that was "chasing" him and runs to mommy to get saved. This morning, Mindy was trying to rub up against him and get some cuddling, and he wasn't having any part of it. He's easily twice her size now and weighs 3+ times what she does, but he always runs away from her whenever she gets in a cuddle with me mood or play with me mode.
I'll have to get on the other computer and post a picture of Mork giving our older pugs a massage before they passed away. It was so funny, 1 of them just loved for Mork to massage her (knead) and would just lay there as long as he would do it. The other one was a bit nervous about her massage, but would lay there (probably because she just didn't want to get up, she was pushing 15 at the time), though she eventually learned to enjoy it as well.
The pug babies were 4-1/2 months (fawn girl) and just over 3 months (black boy) in this pic.

Oh, I forgot I had posted a video of Mork giving a massage to Circe, she was almost 15 at the time and passed a few months later. Mork was about 4 months old. Circe was the sweetest, funniest dog we've ever had, and such a FLIRT with men! This is the one that loved her massages. We had 2 pug girls that were a couple of months apart, plus another girl we had inherited from DD that was the oldest by about 6 months from the other girls, and my first little black boy that somebody walked up to us and gave him to us in a PetSmart parking lot because we had talked about how cute he was and about the girls we already had. He had some behavioral issues and the guy's wife wouldn't have him around anymore. They weren't too bad, just needed some time and patience to help him get over them. They all passed within about a year of each other. It was not a good year for us.

Santtu, the dachshund, is right now with my sister´s home, trying to lost some weight. During hers diet we have Totti. Totti is quite shy and uncertain. She isn´t sure what I am going to do with the camera:
But treats on the hand make her much more trustful:
Oh my heart.
