Ah ma’s obsession…

Published by

has grown! Seeing how fond of squeaky toys Pecan ah ma is, Mummy just couldn’t stop adding more to the collection. And the newest member of ah ma’s gang of BFFs is… the Hartz Dura Play Bone! Of course ah ma loves it. Not only is it new, the size is just right for her smelly mouth! No thanks to Mummy for indulging in her love for squeaky toys, Pecan has developed a new pastime. First, she leaves her squeaky friends everywhere around the house.  Then, she walks around looking for them, before stepping on them (she treats her friends horribly!) to hear them squeak.  She would repeat the above actions till she finds her flavor of the day.  After which, she would proceed to carry it for god-knows-how long.  No surprises who’s her favorite today. And of course, she has to bring it to bed with her. LE SIGH~ #takeupspaceonly I’m really wishing Mummy would stop indulging in ah ma’s weird obsession and spend the money on treats to fill my little tummy. Fingers …

Proud Members of JRM!

Published by

[Disclaimer: the following blog entry contains some of the most unflattering shots of me.] There’s an awesome group for Jack Russells in Singapore called Jack Russell Mania.  In fact, Mummy and myself are Facebook members of the group for quite a while now.  JRTs FTW! Anyway, JRM had a booth at Serangoon CC over the weekend. So, Mummy swung by to show her support as well as to purchase a couple of shirts just for Pecan ah ma and myself. Looks great?? Well, the tricky part was… it comes in just two sizes – S and M.  Mummy went ahead to purchase one of each size. I mean, sounds right since I’m about a size bigger than ah ma. The problem was……. it was not right. NOT RIGHT AT ALL. I look like a freaking SAUSAGE! #notimpressed #NOTimpressed #NOTIMPRESSED On the other hand, ah ma looks like a youngster wearing a cropped top. Life no fair siah. #mylifesucks Of course Mummy had to burst into her evil laughter for a good five minutes, before putting …

Donut’s replicas

Published by

So, Pecan ah ma finally misplaced Donut. WAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA…. (oops… cannot appear so evil…) Ahem, I mean awwwwww~ And she was walking around aimlessly for a few days. Of course, Mummy was as upset about the missing toy as ah ma was.  Hence, it was not at all surprising when Mummy came back with not one, but two Donut replicas! O.M.G. I wasn’t too impressed in befriending ah ma’s new friends until Mummy told me some great news.. Yap, one of them is for me! Wheeeeeeeeeeee~ I initially chose the green one. But of course, Pecan decides that the grass is greener on the other side and headed for mine instead. Oh well, no point fighting with crazy old ladies.  So I happily picked up the brown one and headed to my little corner to enjoy gnawing on it. Was having a great time….  until… the ah ma decides that she wants my spot too. AHhhhhhhhhhhhh…. As usual, after Mummy had a good laugh at my plight, she slowly lured ah ma away and I had …

Our ohpopdog collar!

Published by

Our parents abandoned us and spent a weekend on their own.  So when they came back with a paper bag for us, we instantly forgave them for leaving us behind for a movie date. We had really high hopes for whatever was in the bag.  Granted that it was a little flat to be filled with treats, but with a logo of a Frenchie and a name like ohpopdog, things can’t go that wrong right? Maybe it’s thin prata for dogs? #hopingforthebest So I took a couple of investigative sniffs… And to my utter disappointment…there was nothing edible in it! #mylifesucks #myparentsabandonedmeanddidnotevenhavethedecencytobuymesometreats By now, I was so sian that I didn’t even bother to pose for Mummy anymore. On the other hand, Pecan, being the senile silly ah ma, decided to remain hopeful and continued to smile. #spoilmarket In case you’re wondering what’s in it, it’s actually a handmade bow tie collar by local dog-wear designer, ohpopdog! Actually, Mummy has been following the brand for a while (at Public Garden Fleas) and has always wanted …

Behind the scenes…

Published by

What can I say, we are certainly two very photogenic pooches. #bhb Of course, while the images that made it to the blog were carefully selected (Mummy has to make sure that they always portray the best of us), it’s what goes on behind the scenes that never fails to crack her up. Even if it’s at my expense. sigh~ We usually start with a normal shot. Before ah ma decides that it’s fun to creep closer… And closer.  Nope. In case you thought that I jumped off the shot, look closer. Yap, Pecan thought that it was fun to not only steal my limelight, but to step all over me instead. Of course, I wouldn’t take it lying down. As soon as the two shots were snapped, I fought back. RAWRRRRRR~ After she enjoyed a good long laugh, Mummy stepped in (while still giggling!!) to console me and with tons a fair amount of treats, I decided to hop back on the chair to give Mummy one final shot. Ah ma is clearly my …

Sam’s Pick: A Dog’s Life Salon

Published by

Dearest Mummy took an off day on a lovely weekday last week.  And we were overjoyed to be able to sleep in on a Tuesday and were anticipating that we would be going somewhere fun with Mummy for the entire day. Just when we couldn’t wait to find out what’s up next, we sensed that something was not right as Mummy wouldn’t stop making us pose in various positions. (And that felt awfully familiar) And that rang a bell…. *den den den den* Nooooooooooo~ Yap, we were 101% right. Our little bubble burst.  #resigned #mylifesucks #mummyishorrible Well, in a way, Mummy did surprise us a little.  Instead of our usual salon, she brought us to A dog’s life pet salon that is located at Tiong Bahru.  So atas~ Now we are officially hipster dogs too! When we saw the exterior, we definitely had to give it a paws up for its decor!  Who wouldn’t love a “Dog Parking’ section outside a store? In fact, it’s brilliant! Except that we can’t park ah ma there.  She will …

Things grown ups do – Doodle at work…

Published by

Mummy has a bimonthly deadline at work: which means that she is a walking dead for about a week every two months.  (Yap, that also means we are stuck with Daddy while Mummy works late. No likey~) I always thought that she was slogging her arse off at work creating great works (with us as inspiration) like this. Until I borrowed her phone to look through her photos on a whim and saw this…. Say what~~~ Yap, apparently stupid Mummy doodles at work… at my expense! #howcanlikethat #ilooklikeaperverteduncle I mean, at least draw me to look more handsome ma. Tsk tsk tsk… I was not the least happy.  #notimpressed On the other hand, Pecan ah ma was very tickled. Of course la, they didn’t draw on your face ma!!! Pui~ Thankfully, her colleagues were wayyyy sweeter and their doodles were so much more flattering. Like this… #samisaking And this.. #Samtheangel (But hor, the one on the left looks like banana leaves…) Well, at least she gave me some treats to pacify me. K la, forgive …

Pecan’s BFF!

Published by

Pecan ah ma has a new best friend.  And it isn’t me! *Hengs man~* #phew #NEVERFELTSORELIEVED Can you imagine me having to engage in some granny talk with the grumpy old lady?!  (Like which veggie is the freshest, why are my boobs sagging.) OMG.  *Shrugs* Thankfully, I am NOT her best friend.  Her new best friend… is actually.. DONUT! Yap. It was the toy that Mummy bought ah ma to cheer her up during her recovery. While Mummy knew Pecan loves squeaky toys, she certainly wasn’t expecting ah ma’s obsession to her new Ferplast toy. In fact, obsession is an understatement man.  Pecan ah ma is literally glued to Donut. And everywhere ah ma goes, Donut follows.  That includes our daily walks.  She just has to bring Donut EVERYWHERE! Ah ma also refuses to let it go at all times during the walk. Not even when she’s peeing!!!! How can you pee with something in your mouth?!?!!? #unbelievable The truth is.. it’s a little paiseh (embarrassing) for me. Since Ah ma started bringing Donut for …

It’s time for a celebration!!!!

Published by

Nope…  It’s not our birthdays.. It’s just that Mummy received news that allowed her to finally heave a sigh of relief.. Yap.  Pecan’s biopsy came back clear!  So in other words, this feisty ah ma is here to stay!!!!! That also means I’ll be stuck with her for a while more… NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~
