The Flower dog…

Published by

I attended my very first wedding. As I was specially flown to San Jose to meet Mummy’s HK relatives, including the bride (see, I’m THAT important), I was actually given a flower corset.  Yap, I get special treatments. =D Posing in front of the church where the lovely ceremony took place.  (Spot the bow tie mummy got from Target the night before!) A quick shot after the ceremony ended. And lastly, a “Sam as Puss-in-boots” shot. We had several photos taken with the bride, unfortunately, there are all with the professional photographer. I’ll upload them if I can get my paws on them. 

One little hike..

Published by

Since we covered the beach on our June trip to the west coast, my parents decided to embark on a different adventure this time and chose to go for a nice little hike.  After some research, Daddy found a nice trail at the Pearson Arastradero Preserve. As not all trails are dog friendly, we had to drive a little further to get to one. But it sure was worth it! Lucky for me, the weather was awesome. Impatiently waiting for Daddy to grab a map at the visitors’ centre. After selecting the trail, off we went.  (Hee, grandmummy came along and she sure was well prepared to prevent getting tanned.) The view was just breath-taking. (And the smells were great too.) The trail we went on was shared by cyclists, foot hikers and even equestrian hikers! We were overtaken by a horse midway. That was quite a sight. Stupid mummy just had to get a family photo. -_- Of course, I was too distracted to even pose. Sigh, everyone else is just too slow for …

Where was I?

I was on vacation~ kinda..  I flew to San Jose and attended Mummy’s cousin’s wedding! (And yes, I slept sat through a church wedding!) Hee, we stayed at Hyatt House at San Jose which was super dog friendly and I got tons of treats (nom nom nom~) and love! Anyway, now that we are finally back in NYC, I’ll update the photos soon!

My after-bath routine..

Published by

Like many dogs, I’m not exactly fond of being bathed. Unfortunately for me, mummy has a twice-a-month bath policy for me. (Sucks~) While I dislike the bathing process, I detest the drying routine even more. Here’s how it goes.  1. It begins with a quick attempt to dry me slightly using a microfiber towel, which was a gift for me from one of mummy’s house guest. While it’s a pretty small towel, it is pretty effective in drying my head, neck and butt area. 2. After the quick drying, I proceed to dry myself further using a beach towel. 3. Like a cat, I also try to groom myself dry.  In the meantime, I would occasionally shoot mummy dirty looks to display my dissatisfaction.  4. Once mummy opens bathroom door, I would proceed to dry myself even more on my parents’ beds. Rolling around the duvet has proven to be one of the best way to dry my coat.  I roll. And roll. After maybe a good 10 minutes, and probably about 70% dry, I …

Fashionista Sam..

Published by

A package of mine arrived today… (it’s from American Digs) And it contains two cool outfits for the fashionista me! 1. A seersucker dress shirt Something that would be awesome for a first date, maybe? The seersucker shirt is really well designed. There’s a velcro that is concealed by faux buttons, making it really easier for me to put it on while looking awesome.  2. A cool Murphy polo shirt that Daddy is a fan of too.  Like Father Like Son, we are polo shirt boyz~ Hee, mummy actually bought these outfits for me to wear in Singapore. Can’t wait to show off my good looks in my awesome clothes to my new friends soon. 

My family photoshoot

Published by

Since we were moving back to Singapore pretty soon, Mummy decided to organize a photoshoot for our family to capture our NYC adventure. It was a fun but exhausting experience. I was pooped by the time we got home. The photographer, Melissa from beIMAGED was awesome! (Hee, I got tons of yummy treats just by looking at her.) We finally received the hard copy of all the photographs and I’ve selected some of my best shots to showcase.  We started from Central Park.  My favorite spot in Central Park – The Ramble.  Moved on to Times Square. Possibly my favorite shot – Hugs & kisses. Before finding a lovely street in Soho. Sigh, I’m such a good looking dog. =P Check out more lovely shots here.

Sam’s Toy Review – Starmark Treat Dispensing Chewball

Published by

I am well-known to destroy toys. Hardly any toys of mine can survive the S-monster. So, mummy and daddy are always on a mission to find me THE toy. So far, so not good. (*Evil laugh*) Anyway, once again, Mummy and Daddy went toy shopping for me. This time, they bought me this amazing Starmark treat dispensing Chewball. Hee, mummy secretly told me that Daddy specifically chose it for me. (That’s a first!) Stupid mummy kept taking endless photos that I started getting sleepy just waiting.  She finally stopped and stuffed some treats into the ball. Ready? On your mark? Get set. GO! And the fun begins. This was actually a little more challenging than the kong toy I already have. I love the texture of the toy and how it rolls around spilling treats. Of course, mummy had a heck of a time laughing at me chasing after the rolling ball around the carpet.  The stupid ball even rolled under the bed. -_- When I finally got all the treats out after 10 minutes, …
