My hair-removal name tag…

Published by

You know you’ve a shitty Mum when she thinks that putting a sticker with her name on it on your furry forehead is funny. And an equally terrible Mummy when she takes her name tag off (pulling out precious strands of my coarse hair with it), only to replace it with yet another tag (this time with my name).  Like seriously..wtf~ According to that evil woman, this name tag will supposedly help me make friends at this JRT gathering I was at. Well, she wasn’t exactly wrong.  People started calling my name (while giggling) and I did get a couple of treats for responding. Guess it wasn’t that horrible after all. Wait, I changed my mind again.  That stupid lady Mummy just removed it from my forehead again. O-U-C-H If you see a bald patch on my cute little head, you know who’s fault it is…

My little Basket!

Published by

Mummy brought home a cute little basket from Egg3 a couple of days ago. I was quite fascinated by it and could not stop checking it out. Mummy: I’ll bring you gai gai (shopping) if you can fit in the basket! Challenge accepted. After some wriggling, all 6.9kg of me sat comfortably in the little wicker basket!  I’m ready, Mummy. Let’s go! I kinda realised I got cheated once again when all Mummy did after I got in, was to stand there and laugh at me. *face paw-pad* (The dog version of face-palm) Giving Mummy the “I hate you” face. Stupid woman… I was stuck refused to get out and Mummy had to tilt the basket to get me out of it. Once she did that, she revealed the real purpose of the basket – to store the stray slippers by the door! To take revenge, I decided to photobomb! Hey, at least I gave a happy face k. Well, since the basket wasn’t exactly the most comfortable of traveling modes, I didn’t mind that …

Mid-Autumn treats for SAM – Dog mooncakes!

Published by

Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner! Being American and having lived in NYC for a good part of my life, I know nuts about this occasion.  Plus, why bother.  Till I realise that….when humans celebrate this day, they do so by enjoying mooncakes. And guess what, apparently there are doggy versions of this festive treat as well! *Wriggly dance* Introducing Mooncakes for Dogs, by Pawlicious Bakery! (source) When Mummy saw this, she knew she had to get it.. FOR ME! With Daddy’s pocket (each cost $5.50) and my waistline in mind, she decided to get just three flavours.  The cute dog mooncakes look every bit like the ones mummy eats!  And I can’t wait to begin! Pardon my ‘stone’ face. It’s just that I’m dead tired after a good afternoon swim and Mummy kept insisting on taking pictures before I could start eating. zzzzz I want to eat them and go to sleep.  Hurry~ As three at a go is a tad bit much for a little dog like me, we decided to start …

Emo-ing

Just got wind that Auntie R, Grandma’s domestic helper who absolutely dotes on me, left for a home visit and never came back despite renewing her contract. Boohoo~ Now, Grandma is fuming mad and equally frustrated over getting a new helper, while Mummy is worried buckets about whether I’ll be in good hands when the new helper arrives. All I’m thinking about.. is my lack of treats…  Oh well, maybe I can convinced the replacement auntie to give me treats with my puppy eyes.  Time to start training.  On a good note, it also means that I get to enjoy yet another week of awesome daycare! Wooo~

I’m a H&M Dog!

Published by

During one of the shoots for the Aug/Sep issue, Mummy fell in love with a H&M silk Beagle print handkerchief that was used as a bandana for one of the pups. (Under the influence of Uncle Bryan!) And she knew she had to have it… for me, of course.  (source: pets Magazine) It took a while before it finally hit the stores. Well, STORE technically as it’s only available at H&M Orchard (under the men’s section). When I got my paws on the scarf, I was a bit lost. I mean, I don’t usually blow my nose or sneeze into a hankie.  So what is this for? *confused* So I did the worst thing I could possibly have done by asking Mummy what it was for. Seeing that I didn’t realise that it was to be used as a bandana, she decided to pull a prank on me and made me wear it as a head scarf..  I HATE YOU!!!!! Grrrrr~ Now I look like the granny/auntie below. *curses under his breath* !@#!@$@!%@#% (source) To make …

It’s PAYDAY!!!

Published by

Well, while this is somewhat overdue (oabout 2 months late), but.. I’ve just (physically) received my very first paycheck!!!!! *Wriggly dance* Now I can finally get my paws on that awesome toy I’ve been eyeing and that yummy treat that I’ve been drooling about.. *Beams~* Just when I was basking in joy, Daddy (as usual) had to be a wet (soaked more like it) blanket and burst my little bubble!  And no surprises, I swear he was gloating too.. rawrrrrr~ Apparently I was told that I had already advanced my paycheck 1.5 months ago on that fateful day when Mummy made a trip to the pet food supplier and bought god-knows-what. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo~ Shaking my head in disbelief…. What it means is that when this cheque (my precious~~) is cashed, every single cent of it is going to go into Daddy’s bank account. Yap, my life sucks and I’ve money sucking parents . Oh well, nonetheless, it IS my first paycheck, and despite my uber ‘buay song-ness’ (means unhappy), here’s a photo to commemorate.  Mental Note to self: …

My Triangle Travel Quilt!

Published by

You know your mother is crazy obsessed..erm.. I mean selfless when she buys a present for you for her birthday!  Ho ho ho … After eyeing at this item for close to two months since she first saw in on Pretty Fluffy, Mummy finally took the plunge on this very purchase. It’s her birthday present to herself, or so she says… (I’m quite sure Daddy footed the credit card bill.. shhhhh)  Who cares, since I’m the one to benefit. *GRINZ* And..word has it that  (*puts on a fake british accent) this lovely package came from the land my breed originated – Yap, you guessed it right, this was fresh from…ENGLAND! OPEN IT! Wondering what it is? Huh?!  That’s it?! I can barely fit…. (Yet another sign it’s time to lose weight…dang~) Nay…just kidding.. Introducing my Triangle Travel Quilt by East End Best Friend!! Designed and hand-made in Hackney, East London, this gorgeous quilted travel mat is just the right thing for a hip little terrier like me! Best of all, the quilt is actually machine-washable! Certainly a god-send …

Sam, the bad hair day lion!

Published by

ROARRRRRRRRRR… I’m Sam, the Bad Hair Day Lion!! I’m gonna eat you up!! Hm, my new mane got me thinking.  You think the Singapore Zoo will hire me as a lion substitute? Well, China Zoo did it… maybe they will. Shall send my resume tomorrow… Meanwhile… ROARRRRR…. Mummy’s note: I got Sam his lion mane wig at a pets seminar from Cat Welfare Society.  Not the cheapest thing around, nor the wisest purchase… but it sure entertained the hell out of me and it’s for a good cause (some part of the proceeds goes to helping cats)!  So, yet another win-win situation! And I love how the little rascal displays a sense of self-importance each time I put it on him. Maybe he really believes he’s a lion.

The Green Mini Interactive Feeder!

Published by

Mummy brought home an interesting product recently.  I was quite fascinated by it and couldn’t quite figure out what it was exactly. It’s a toy… NO! it’s a bowl… NO! It’s a……  Green Mini Interactive Feeder! This specially designed feeder is shaped just like at tuft of grass (it consists of 32 grass-like blades). Besides acting as obstacles to prolong eating time, they make access to food complicated, making it challenging and possibly more interesting for the eater. I’m far from being a fast eater. While I gobble down treats like they are the best things on earth (wait, they are!), I approach my kibbles with a lot LESS enthusiasm. In fact, it’s always a struggle to get me to start eating, let alone get me to finish my food. Hence, Mummy thought that this would be a great toy to get me slightly more interested in my food since it will make my mealtime a fun and enjoyable activity! I’ve to admit that I was quite intrigued by it and couldn’t wait to test …
