Take A Look At These 30 Lovely Illustrations That Show What It’s Like To Live With A Dog
Dogs are awesome. They are great, except when they are annoying and need attention. But even then, they are so cute. They follow you around all day long and hang on every word you say. To be honest, to them, everything sounds like: “Come here, let’s play till we drop.” As Dr. Dan Siegel, a renowned psychiatrist, states, "The joy of being with a dog is that they live in the moment, reminding us to appreciate the simple pleasures of life" on his official website. An artist named Gemma Gené shared her latest comic about everyday life with her pug named Mochi. They are simply adorable, mainly because every one of us dog owners sees ourselves in her comic.

Gemma is from Barcelona, Spain, but she lives in New York. She is a true artist, and besides painting, she also does sculpting. However, her most famous work is her pug comic strip. In her comics, she features Mochi, herself, her husband Peli, and Mochi’s brothers, Huey and Duey.

"Mochi is a very happy and sweet pug who sees life in a particular way. He is super sweet and well-behaved, but he can be very sassy and pretty much does whatever he wants," Gemma said on her website. "His favorite activities include sleeping, eating, and going for walks, especially when he is being carried."

Gemma started the cartoon “157 of Gemma” back in 2012 as a means of escape from her architecture final thesis but stopped in 2013 when she moved to New York. She couldn’t stay away for too long, so she began drawing the comic about Mochi in 2014.

If the first thing that comes to your mind is adopting a pug, it is quite understandable. However, there are some things specific to this breed that you should be aware of. Chloe Tejada from Canadian Living says that before she got her dog, she didn’t know that pugs follow their owners everywhere—absolutely everywhere.
Pugs are not the healthiest breed, and they can suffer from a variety of health issues. Food allergies and breathing problems are just a few of them. Therefore, they need a lot of care compared to some more resilient breeds, and they tend to shed a lot.
