Meet our newest addition.. INU!

Well, mummy always wanted a second dog. But due to some reasons, we couldn’t. (PHEW~) So, she decided to satisfy her own desires by getting a puppy by Eero Aarnio for Magis. She decided to name her Inu (which means Dog in Japanese) since she’s learning Japanese. How creative. -_-  I wasn’t too pleased to having another ‘dog’ in the apartment and was a little hesitant meeting her. Despite that, I decided to be friendly and try to sniff her butt. But she kept ignoring me. WHAT?! Maybe she will respond if I sniffed her face. Still no response. -_- Unfriendly. To award me for my effort, mummy gave me a huge treat. And surprisingly, Inu didn’t try to steal the treat from me! Guess she’s not that bad afterall.  Okay, I decide to approve the new addition. Welcome to the family INU! After some exploring, I realised that Inu makes a perfect head rest! As well as a great resting platform. Sly mummy knew that daddy wouldn’t allow her to buy this rubbish Inu if …

Scrapbooker Sam..

Who says Scrapbooking are for ladies?  I’m into scrapbooking too! Okay, more like I give mummy moral support by staring at her while she scraps.  Mummy managed to find this wonderful scrapbooking album just for dogs on amazon and with a quick fix (she took an existing photo and did a lousy quick cropping job), it’s personalized! Whee~ Introducing my first scrapbooking page – Fetch!  Using photos we took during our West Coast trip, with the help of a Jolee’s boutique sticker, a great suggestion from Auntie Rachel (the grass patch) and way too much time (mummy took 5 hours!), the page is completed. Isn’t it just awesome?  More pages to come!!

It’s Halloween…finally~

Hee, it’s finally Halloween and mummy decided to bring me out for my daily walk in my new costume, as well as to test if the costume was able to withstand Sam’s rascal ways. And guess what, it did! Oh, and I decided to name him.. Mr. Pumpkin Head! We decided to test it out in the dog park. (Lucky us managed to head down at a time when there were fewer dogs and all of them were also my friends! Plus, none of them tried to stripped me off my costume! Phew~) And the testing begun with…an awesome game of fetch! Check out how awesome Mr. Pumpkin Head did while I sprinted.  Granted that he was a little off balance, but he sure did hang on tight.  Kudos to you, Mr. Pumpkin Head! We even smile in sync! After a quick rest, we decided to put Mr. Pumpkin Head to one last test… Sam’s Jack Russell Leaps! I jumped, and jumped, and JUMPED! And he just held on tight! WOO HOO~ Well done, Mr. …

Sam’s swim Updates!

Hee, it’s been while since I started swimming and I’m sure everyone’s curious with how I’m doing. So here’s a little update.  I’m still a little hesitant about getting in the water on my own. But decided to do it anyway. PS: I’m an official monkey rescuer. Mean mummy would toss the poor monkey into the water and Sam the hero would go to his rescue. Hero Sam getting ready to take the leap. Jump! Wheeee~~ BIG SPLASH!! Swim away~ Heading over to the poor little drowning monkey. Almost there~ Hang in there monkey! Got him! Bringing the poor little monkey to shore.  Horrid mummy decided to up the challenge and tossed two poor monkeys in the water.  Nooooooo~ Deliberating hard on which one to rescue.  Green or purple?! Ahhhh…   Sigh. I decided to save the purple monkey afterall.  Bringing him to safety. I basically spent the whole half hour trying to rescue the poor monkeys from mummy’s torture. Sure was rewarding! It sure is tiring being a hero! Oh oh oh ..did you …

Day at Prospect Park…

Mummy and Daddy brought me to the Food Truck Rally at Prospect Park last month. Initially I thought I would get tons of yummy food since it was after all a food truck rally. However, despite tons of begging with my cute little paws, I got barely anything!! Boo~ Just when I thought it was a waste of my time being dragged along for a food truck rally WITHOUT being given much food, we chanced upon the Long Meadow Dog Beach at Prospect Park. And the fun begins~~~ Fearlessly decided to swim to the edge of the fence… But realised that the water is a tad bit too deep and decided to turn back.. Almost there… Phew~ finally back on shore.. Decided to venture a little more, made a new friend and did tons of sniffing. After a good round of sniffing and waddling, it was time to go home. (BOO~) So I decided to do a magnificent leap out of the dog beach. I was a pretty happy wet dog by the end of …

Happy Halloween…

Presenting my Halloween Costume~ Knowing that I’m not a fan of wearing clothes (tho I’ve tons of it -_-), Mummy decided to get me a dog rider costume instead. Unlike a full ‘dress’ costume that would restrict my movement, this barely feels anything and is really light. I could still run around the house without any restrictions. Plus, I think I look really cute. =P Trick or Treat? Where’s my treat?! Happy halloween in advance~~

My Fresh Patch Experiment…

I’m potty trained.. indoors. Which means, I do my little businesses (big & small) at specific areas in the apartment. Mummy lays little pee pads on both bathroom floors and that’s where I know I’m supposed to go. Every time after I go, I would ‘announce’ my achievement to my parents by jumping in front of them and wagging my tail. Mummy would then toss the pee pad that I went on before giving me a treat. After doing the math, my parents realized that per pee pad would cost them 20 cents. Not a lot, but it does add up.  Upon some research, mummy discovered a clever product called Fresh Patch. Fresh Patch is a disposable dog potty that is made of real grass. It’s odor free and the urine gets absorbed easily. After a week or two of usage, it can simply be tossed away and a new patch can be ordered and delivered. Sounds cool? Hence, when mummy saw an offer on Fab.com, she decided to give it a try. The patches …

Sam the pendant..

Mummy got a custom pet portrait (Original Watercolor hand painted) necklace pendant made on etsy. While the final product is on the way in the mail, the artist sent us a preview photo. Ain’t I just cute beyond words? Judging from mummy’s smile, I guess she agrees and she’s absolutely loving it!
