Behind the scenes…

Published by

Blogging is no easy task.  And I’ve to do it all by myself. While Mummy is the officially lousy photographer and the idea spinner, I have to do all the editorial work myself. That being said, Mummy does lend me a hand occasionally (usually for Mummy’s notes). As for Daddy, he just doesn’t give a hoot.  Thankfully, writing entries after entries is not at all a challenge for my smart little brain.  But what I do require is a little privacy while my paws type away. I mean, nothing beats silence and being left alone for my creative juices to flow.  Obviously Mummy thinks otherwise. zzzzz Shall try to ignore her and continue to proof-read my entry… But it just doesn’t feel right with a pair of eyes constantly looking at me. Grrrrrr… Luckily, Mummy got my hint and decided to leave me alone for the next thirty minutes.. and Viola~  A new entry is up! Done! A happy less grumpy Sam! It’s tough being a dog blogger. But I’ve to admit, the rewards are …

Pets Picnic Party

Published by

It was the pets picnic party yesterday and of course I had to tag along! While the picnic started only at 4pm, I was there since noon to lend a paw for the setup.  Making ourselves useful by lazing on the stage. As Mummy was busy running around and helping out for the event, I was pretty much left to entertain myself. Thankfully there were many nice korkors and jiejies to keep me company. Besides, when it got super boring, I had brownie, my poopbag holder to play with me. It was a pity that Mummy is part of the organizing team. Because of that, I didn’t have a picnic mat to chill on, yummy food to beg for or decent photos to post. -_- Well, at least I got a nice grass patch to laze on and some dogs to check out. Plus, the lovely people of Superdog Kitchen gave us a bowl of yummy coconut water with some watermelon. Refreshing for a warm picnic! *Slurps~* In addition, I did have Jager and Snowy (tied …

Jacks in a basket

Published by

Running out of ideas for birthday/get-well-soon/congratulatory presents? Why not get a Jack-in-a-basket then? Not only is it packed with tons of cuteness and love, it is guaranteed to bring a smile on the face of your loved one. Instantly. Choose between a PEE-KEE-PIE HAMPER Lightweight and compact, it comes with a treat-powered tail that wags 24/7 and on command.  Simply say “PECAN” (in the most excited voice you can squeeze out of your throat) and you will send that little stub wagging for as long as you stare at her, with a smile of course. Great for kids, families and even the elderly. WARNING: KEEP AWAY FROM OTHER DOGS Or a.. SAM-MO-MO HAMPER This is an absolute “value for your money” purchase (all 7.8kg of it comes at a fixed price). Adorable and shameless, he will beg endlessly for tummy rubs by laying on his back, anywhere and anytime. He will even do his repertoire of up to 10 tricks with just a treat in your hand without a single command required. Simply show it …

ROARRRRR

Published by

Since it’s crunch time at work (it happens once every two months), Mummy’s suffering from a mental block for things for me to blog about. She was scooping around the house looking for some inspiration when she came across her favorite lion mane wig.  *Horrified look* Nooooo…..  But since I’ve already posed with it, there’s nothing novel about me wearing in. Hee, so no surprises who had to take the fall to entertain Mummy… Yaps, introducing Pee-Kee the Lion! RAwrrrr Lucky for Mummy, Pee-Kee is one happy lion! All smiles and pleased with her new hairdo. Then of course, stupid Mummy just had to do a comparison shot. Yap. My life sucks. Sammo the grumpy lion. To be honest, I think Sammo the grumpy lion is wayyy more convincing than Pee-kee.  Check this out man! I was quite surprised that I looked so…’lion’ here. Must be those slit eyes. LOL Anyway, Mummy convinced me that if I put on a smile I would get some treats.  So I squeezed out one just for the treats …

Sam ‘n’ the city 2014!

Published by

Me and Mummy went on a special date last saturday!  (Yes, we left Pecan ah ma and Daddy behind at home to rot to death. Ho Ho Ho ) For our special day out, Mummy decided to bring me to the city! Well, The promontory @ Marina Bay to be exact. And yes, I finally got to enjoy the satisfaction of marking my territory at Marina Bay. Wahahahaha The truth was… Mummy brought me to the 8 Days Pets ‘n’ the City 2014 event. Since Pecan ah ma isn’t very dog friendly yet, Mummy decided to leave her behind and got Daddy to accompany her (Before you start pitying Daddy, he actually likes being home rather than stuck at a dog event). The event was a little blah~ I mean the booths were disappointing and there was nothing for sale that I wanted.  Mummy did get a free Old Chang Kee curry puff, which she gobbled up herself without offering me any. So horrible right? Anyway, here’s a lousy “I was here” shot.  Geesh, Mummy really …

Sam’s weight loss Diary – Day 1

Published by

My annual checkup with Dr Vanessa brought shitty news to my parents.  In a span of just less 1.5 years, I’ve grown from 5.8kg to.. *Drum rolls* 7.3kg! OMG That’s like 20% of my body weight!!!! BUT BUT BUT… before everyone panics, hush. Dr Vanessa added that my sexy waistline is still prominent. Hence, I AM STILL OF ACCEPTABLE WEIGHT! It’s just that, maybe it’s for the better of everyone that I try my best not to gain any more weight. Of course, meando Daddy took the opportunity to call me Fatty. Boooo~ As for Mummy, she decided it’s time for me to go on a diet. Less treats, less food, more exercise. (I’m only agreeable to point number 3, I veto the other two.) To get started, I decided to join Mummy on her Fitness Blender programs.  We started with Fitness Blender’s Puppy Workout. Unfortunately, stupid Mummy couldn’t concentrate and kept laughing.  Tsk tsk tsk. I was so focused lor. Oh well, I shall venture on my own then. I’ve put on my shoes …

Pinku-chan the Octopus

Published by

Auntie JY bought us a new toy from Ju-be a few weeks ago! We decided to name it Pinku-chan! And yap, she’s a hand-knitted Octopus, made of toxic-free wool. We likey~  “Oh.. you mean Pinku is not my dinner?” Dang~ When I realized Pinku-chan was no calamari, I’ve to admit that I was a little disappointed. But thankfully Pinku-chan is really sporting and fun to play with. One of our favorite games is balancing her on our foreheads!! Pinku-chan also enjoys riding on me! Pecan ah ma is too wriggly for her.  Plus, my fat sturdy body is also great for Pinku-chan to rest on! We had a ball chasing her around the house.  It’s a pity that she is a little fragile and Mummy has to keep it away at times to prevent us for pulling a leg or two out. Thanks Auntie JY for our new toy pet!!

Hiking with dogs @ Hort Park!

Published by

We’re just a little over the Green Corridor. I mean, how not to when you visit it 3 times in less than one month.  Hence, Mummy decided to explore something different. So, we went to… the Hort Park! We invited a special friend to come along today.  While waiting for him, we stood around and stalked the koi fish. Introducing our playmate for the day – Keyser!  Hee, while it’s not the first time he is on my blog, it is his virgin feature in Singapore! Yaps, Keyser is my best bro from NYC! We’ve been best buddies (he even came for a stay over) when we were in the Big Apple. He came back six months after I did and this is the second time we caught up with each other! Mummy was a little concerned about how ah ma would react around Keyser.  But to everyone’s surprise, the two of them didn’t give a hoot about each other and that worked out great! Within minutes (they did scream at each other for a …
