Jayne is a supporter of PDWRA, who creates handmade cards and illustrations. She very kindly raised £150 this summer for PDWRA in a fundraiser to mark the 15th birthday of her gorgeous pug Henry, seen below.
Henry pug was her inspiration for her business Onelittlepug. Very sadly Henry has recently passed away, having lived life to the full, with a personality ten times his size.
He loved having his photo taken, so was often the model for so many card designs, so his legacy remains.
Jayne has created Christmas Cards with designs for both fawn and black pug varieties. Profits on these will be donated to PDWRA and are available from her Etsy shop, at: www.etsy.com/uk/shop/onelittlepug
They can be specifically found at: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1569417534/
We are so very grateful for Jayne’s kind support and raising awareness for PDWRA too.
Please support us both by purchasing and sending these unique and delightful cards this Christmas!!

Buddy and Belle, arrived on the Isle of Man four years ago after a long journey from the mainland. Despite the trip, they remained calm and settled, sleeping in the cabin with their owners and family pug, Winston. Upon arriving home, they were met by our Labrador and eagerly explored the house and garden, adapting quickly to their new home.
As it turned out, Buddy and Belle were no strangers to seaside living. They enjoy exercising on the quiet beaches and nearby glens. Although Buddy wasn’t initially fond of paddling, he has since grown accustomed to it, while Belle can’t get enough of the water and loves rolling in it at any opportunity!
Next year, they will have even more space to play, as we are taking over some family fields. Once a pug-friendly canter strip is mown to keep the grass short, Buddy and Belle can enjoy running around and playing to their heart’s content.
Belle has taken a liking to Winston and likes to wash him frequently, while Buddy is more people-oriented. During a particularly hot holiday last year, they all enjoyed splashing around in the sea and racing over the sands, with Buddy’s favourite activity being chasing birds. They were soon joined by another rehomed pug and now all three curl up together at night near the kitchen range.
Buddy and Belle’s adopters, Sue and Alan say, “Buddy and Belle are real characters and dear, much-loved pugs, a great addition to our family.
Thank you to the PDWRA for making this possible”.

We will remember them.
Men, Women and Loyal Animals who sacrificed and served together.
Lest we forget …..
They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
