Sounds like there are quite a few "bones" days ahead for Noodle the pug's owner Jonathan Graziano. He recently shared some exciting updates on Noodle's second book and fostering a pug on TikTok.

His more than 4.5 million followers on TikTok have continued to follow Graziano's life on social media since the internet-famous pug passed away in early December of last year. He's continued to keep everyone informed on Noodle news and how he's doing after losing his furry best friend, who was known for predicting if the day will be a "bones" or "no bones" day.

In February, Graziano announced that a second book, "Noodle Conquers Comfy Mountain," is in the works. This is a follow up to Noodle's first book, "Noodle and the No Bones Day." The book has special meaning since Noodle passed away a few months ago, and it will help to continue the pug's legacy.

A few days ago, Graziano updated his followers on how the book, which will be released on November 7, is coming along. Graziano said a "tough but necessary edit" happened.

"So, I just got off the phone with the publisher of Noodle's upcoming book. And just so you know how it's coming along, we're working with the same illustrator as the first book, Dan Tavis, he is so good. And we just went over the final art and it just, it looks, it just looks amazing," he began his video update.

The most notable thing followers will take notice of - Noodle's cheese balls. Graziano continued to talk about the book's images. "I told him, oh my gosh, I just love these cheese balls, they're so funny," he said. "And the publisher let me know that these are actually the second versions that Dan sent through."

The first version that was sent through had one small issue. "You could see Noodle's pills sticking out from the cheese," he said with a laugh. "And although we loved it, we decided we could not put it in a children's book." He concluded his video by saying, "Just know, it's going to be fabulous. It's just amazing."

Followers of Graziano left comments about the upcoming book and the necessary edit.

In late January, Graziano told his followers in a TikTok video that he submitted an application to become a foster parent to dogs who are looking for homes. On Monday, he announced that he's about to open his home to not one, but two dogs later this week.

"Two pug puppies, eight weeks old, are coming to stay with me on Saturday," he happily said. "And I'm gonna help them find their forever homes."

There's no denying that Graziano is super excited about his soon-to-be house guests. His followers understood just how big his news really is.
