Q: Hi Duff, I would like to know what your pug’s name

Q: Hi Duff, I would like to know what your pug’s name is. I saw her on Susan’s show and she is darling! We have a little Pug named Petunia, and she’s so much fun and so sweet!?? Thanks,? Suzanna Dwyer? A: Yeah, well, I feel kind of goofy answering a question about my dog. Truthfully, if it was a big dog, like the ones I used to have, I would probably feel less chick-like in my answer. But OK, here goes….Our pug’s name is Twirlz. When our girls each turned 9, they got a dog for Christmas. Mae wanted a pug. She was so scared of that whirling dervish of a dog for the first few months that–yeah, you guessed it–Susan and I ended up being the feeders, cuddlers, and walkers of Twirlz. On those walks that I did on my own (but of course, in public), I called her . . . Chopper. I couldn’t have anyone hearing me say “Go potty, Twirlz” in public, now, could I?
