We are the Dino Dogs!

Published by

Mummy is getting a tad bored of our boring grey wall and how it’s showing in our photos. To spruce our shots up, she decided to get crafty! #wethinkshehastoomuchtimeonherhands A quick trip to Art Friend and she was ready to get crafting. #wecanhelpbutyoumustpayintreats #mummycannotsaynotothesefacesone A couple of hours in… and wala~ #howcomeitlookslikeprimaryschoolkidswork To be honest, while Mummy is quite fond of scrapbooking and stuff, she really isn’t the most artistic person around.  #notevenclosecan So to be safe, she got tree and cloud templates off the internet. And since our printer is kaput, she had to use baking sheet to trace them out before drawing them onto coloured paper. #cheapoislikethatone #havetoimprovise Presenting our new backdrop! Mummy’s tip: Use Blue-tac to secure the items to the background. This will allow you to shift the trees and clouds around as you deem fit. Plus, you can reuse the background for the next project. #mummycheaposodon’twantotstickitdown #mustreuseandsavemoneyma Looks pretty good right? Of course our mummy isn’t that creative to come up with this from scratch.  That’s what Pinterest is for! …

Sam’s pick: The Optivizor

Published by

Meet Sam and Pecan, the Superhero Jacks. Nay, I wish. #justkidding #butdoesn’tthegetupmakeuslooklikesomesuperheroes #okaywearedelusion Introducing.. The Optivizor! #dangwhydoesitreallysoundlikesomesuperhero While the optivizor doesn’t give us super powers (what a disappointment), it does something pretty impressive too. It protects our eyes from the damaging UV rays! We were first contacted by Auntie Jeannie who introduced this to Mummy. The very sweet lady noticed that Pecan’s eyes appeared to have cataracts in some of the photos. #sheisabsolutelyright #mummyhaslousyphotoshopskills #shedoesnotevenbothertocoverthatup To help manage Pecan’s cataracts (she is currently on long-term prescription eye drops), she offered us the Optivizors to review. #sothoughtfulandsweet To ensure that we got the right fit, Auntie Jeannie even arranged for her local counterparts from Bubble Pet Care to come by our place to fit us. Thanks to Auntie Pearl and Uncle Kenneth for going the extra mile!  The optivizors are colour coded. I wear an Orange S while ah ma wears a yellow XS. #orangeismycolour #toobadnopinkforahma The Optivizor serves a few purposes: 1. Help protect blind and special vision dogs minimise chance of injuries when they touch, …

It’s not easy being mini celebs. #nooneactuallycareswhoweare #weareinourownworld We’ve to make sure that we’re always spruced up enough to meet our non-existent fans. #alwayscameraready #butpecanalwayshasbedroomhead We do have quite a wardrobe. #notsurprisingly And getting ready for each walk can be quite a task. #famousdogislikethatone #thickskinnedsiah #bhb Don’t say we don’t share k.

Trick or Treat?

Published by

Halloween is right around the corner and we’re looking forward to our party! In the meantime, Mummy’s been cracking her brain on how to dress us up for the celebrations. #asusualsheissolastminute She whipped out Mr Pumpkin man – the one and only costume that we’ve been donning for the past 1 2 3 4 5 6 years – for a test shot. #soboringla #everyoneinthewholeworldhasalreadyseenuswearingthis  This is seriously overused. We need something refreshing! Mummy started scouting around the house and found these. #samandpecanthejackrussellbunnies Cute indeed. Erm, but our parents can’t possibly walk around the hood trying to hold this near our snouts right? #howstupidcanmummyget So she went online, googled and had a lightbulb moment. #wehaveabadfeelingaboutthis #veryverybadfeeling She quickly emptied out the first aid kit at home and took these out. #oursuspiciousfaces Moment of truth…. Meet Sam and Pecan, the Jack Russell Mummies. Me be like “This is the worst day of my life”. Pecan be like “Get this crap off me” Daddy be like “they don’t look like mummies. They looked like they got lang-garred (ran …

The good ol’ days – NYC

Published by

Just a couple of months more will mark the 4th year I am back in Singapore Yap, in case you’re new here (Hi welcome!) or can’t be bothered to scroll back to past entries (guilty~ like me..hehe), I am a New Yorker. True blue one somemore. #thesinglishonlyhappenedafterIcameback #Iusedtospeakinanaccenthor I was born in New York state and stayed in Manhattan till I was almost 3, before I was whisked off to this little island. To kinda mark the end of our adventure there, Mummy organised a photoshoot around our few favourite spots in the Big Apple. And since Mummy spent too much money on it, she decided that it’s time to go through them and showcase it on the blog again. #cheapoislikethatone #mustkeepreusinguntilpeoplearesickofseeingit #sitinharddiskdonothingalsowastemoneyma Here goes… No one place can replace this place in my heart. Ever.  My heaven on earth is, of course, Central Park. It was the one place Mummy and I spent one too many afternoons at, all year round. Erm, should I be seeing this? #oiyoursonishere #noPDAleh #buaypaiseh My happy place! This …

The many faces of Pecan Woods

Published by

Through our recent photoshoot with Uncle Nicholas from Furry Photos, Mummy came to realise that Pecan ah ma can be pretty expressive.  #itisamazinghowmanydifferentfacesshehas #nowondermummyalwayssaysheiscuterthanme For starters, this is her ‘Let me pose like a model’ face. #actsodemure #actyounglor This is her ‘=P’ face. #tongueouttuesdayyo This is her happy face. #alsoknownasherdefaultface This is her ‘you owe me a treat’ face. #ithinkhergrumpyfacecanfightwithmine #hownottogivethisfaceatreat #nowonderourbelliesaregrowing This is her ‘omg omg omg life is so good’ face. Also known as her silly face. #omgshelooksogong This is her ‘I am a food critic’ face. Tasting her food like a true connoisseur. #pretendonly #mustseeifahmaapproveanotma #ofcosshelikela #thenextshotshegombledupeverything This is her ‘shiok ah’ face. This is probably the expression we will see the most at the beach. After all, she is THAT crazy about being at the beach. #asianeyes This is her “my life sucks” face. To be honest, this is pretty much Sam’s face during a shower too. #whoeverinventedshowersistheworstpersononearth This is her ‘Let-me-think-about-life’ face. Pecan ah ma needs to contemplate about life ma.  #thisiswhatoldpeopledo #nolasheisjustsotiredthatsheisspacingout Last but not least, THIS. #nowordscandescribethisfaceofhers With …

A new shop in town – Woofer & Purrlensky

Published by

One of our only favourite friends, Latte (Yap, the Vanillapup) is turning four soon.  And we were cracking our brains thinking of what to get for her.  #actuallyonlymummyisthinking #wedon’treallycare Because, like us, Latte has pretty much everything she needs.  So, it is a real challenge getting her a present. When Mummy found out about the new store, Woofer & Purrlensky, she decided to check it out and hopefully, find something for the birthday gal. #spotahma’sbackside We absolutely adore the industrial vibe of the store. #mummyisasuckerforanythingindustrialla The floor-to-ceiling windows make the space look really big, and the bright natural light streaming in make the products look lush and vibrant – perfect for a photo-shoot. #infacteverysingleshotinthispostistakenusingjustaniphone #lazymummydidnotwantotusehercamera Most importantly, the gorgeous pet accessories got Mummy super excited. #luckydaddydidnotcomealongelsehewillbesweatingalltheway As for me, I really liked how this reminds me of the few boutique pet stores we used to frequent when I was still a New Yorker. #sorrypecanyouwon’tunderstandone #imissnyc We loved the place so much that we decided to camouflage as furniture so that we can stay here longer! …

Sam’s pick: Zippy Paws

Published by

I’m not really a huge fan of stuffed plush toys. Well, there was a time when destroying them was my life mission. Thankfully for Mummy, I had since outgrown that phase.  #removingstuffingnokickla #tooeasyuntilicannotbebotheredtodoit On the other hand, Pecan ah ma isn’t interested in them either. #sheonlyhaseyesforherlatexsheep Hence, Mummy really doesn’t bother buying us any. However, she recently found a type of plushie that got me going cray cray over it! It’s the ZippyPaws Burrows! It’s no secret that I am an hyper JRT and Mummy is on an active mission to find toys to keep me stimulated. #thatiswhysheisashopaholic The ZippyPaws Burrow toys are the perfect mental stimulation toys! Each set comes with a ‘den’…. And three squeaky critters (in this case, our favourite – mice)! There are so many cute designs that Mummy couldn’t resist but buy way too many of them.  (Source) My current collection count = 5! We started with 4. Then Mummy gave 2 away to our friends. #boohoohoo #ohwellgoodthingsmustshareiguess Seeing how upset we were, she replenished stock during the recent B2K …

Sam’s Pick: Online Shopping with Kohepets

Published by

The kind people from Kohepets dropped us an email asking if we were keen to do a sponsored review about our experience shopping with them. Instantly, our shopaholic sides came right through. #weinherititfromMummyone YES,we said! Pecan ah ma and myself were extremely excited and both of us took some time, sat down and to come up with our shopping list. #tookoursolongcan #thinkingistiring We showed Mummy our shopping list and she burst into laughter. #gotsofunnymeh #seriousbusinessleh Oh well. After laughing for way too long, Mummy gave us the green light to go ahead and even helped us set up her lappie. #meandomummy With our shopping list in mind, we embarked on our very own online shopping spree. Hehe, I was kinda pleased that I had control of the mouse. #ihavethefinalbarknow #pecanhastolistentome #youdonotneedopposablethumbstoshop Concentration time… We love how accessible Kohepets’ website is.  The products are very well categorised and we were able to nagivate through the site easily. Since we’re raw-fed dogs, we were very specific in the types of treats we wanted.  Everything was listed clearly …
