Pug puppy sitting on bed next to phone and computer sleeve



Animals->DogA bedsit , also known as a bed-sitting room , is a form of rented accommodation common in Great Britain and Ireland consisting of a single room and shared bathroom; they are part of a legal category of dwellings referred to as Houses in multiple occupation . Bedsits arose from the subdivision of larger dwellings into small low-cost accommodations at low conversion cost. In the UK a growing desire for personal independence after World War II led to a reduced demand for traditional boarding houses with communal dining. Bedsits are often occupied by young single people, students, those unable to purchase their own properties, or those whose occupancy, for one reason or another, is of a transitory nature; the cost is typically lower than that of private property. Someone living and working in different areas may rent a bedsit at low cost to reduce daily travel. The American equivalents to a bedsit are single room occupancy (SRO) and rooming house . By comparison, a studio apartment (also known as a studio flat in the United Kingdom) is a one-room apartment with a small adjoining kitchen and a private bathroom. A bedsit can also be compared to a Soviet communal apartment , in which a common kitchen, bathroom, toilet, and telephone are shared by several families, each of which lives in a single room opening up onto a common hallway.Description above from the Wikipedia article Bedsit, licensed under CC-BY-SA full list of contributors here.

Animals->Dog The pug is a "toy " (small-lower medium) breed of dog with a wrinkly, short-muzzled face, and curled tail. The breed has a fine, glossy coat that comes in a variety of colors, and a compact square body with well-developed muscle. They have been described as multum in parvo ("much in little"), referring to the pug's personality and small size. Known in ancient China as lo-sze , they may have been responsible for the English Bulldog , the modern Pekingese and King Charles spaniel . They have Chinese origins, but were popularized in Western Europe by the House of Orange of the Netherlands and the House of Stuart of England, Ireland and Scotland. They can suffer from a variety of health issues, including overheating , obesity , pharyngeal reflex and two fatal conditions which are necrotizing meningoencephalitis and hemivertebrae . In addition, care must be taken by their owner to clean their ears, and the folds of skin on their face.
