Happy 5th Barkday to Sammy Loo!

Published by

Yap, it’s the time of the year once again. Little Sammy has grown one year wiser. To celebrate my bark day this year, Mummy decided to gift me not one, not two, but FIVE pressies (one for each year of my life!)!!! Wheeeeeeee~ #omgomgomgomgomgOMG #ofcoursethebudgetcamefromdaddy #nopehedidntgivewillingly To kickstart the celebrations, Mummy got us customised hats from The Lil’ Rascals! Now, we are in the right party mood~ Woohoo~ Bring the presents on!!!!!! A customised Birthday Cake from Pawlicious Bakery! There’s no birthday without a birthday cake! Hehe, since we had their signature fondant figurines for our Barkday last year (fyi: the figurines are still intact and sitting around in the house!), we decided to change things up a little. So, Mummy got Auntie Jaster to illustrate us doing our favourite activity in the world –  rescuing drowning toys! We sent Auntie Jaster a reference pic like this: And she came up with this awesome cake!!! #ohmygawd #ahmaiswearingabikini #samisrockingboardshorts We’re totally loving it. Okay la. I think Mummy loved it more than we did.  We just wanted …

Grooming Workshop @ Bubbly Petz

Published by

As JRTs are relatively low-maintanence dogs, our parents would send Pecan ah ma and myself to the groomer’s only once every three to four months.  Despite that, we do require a bit of home-grooming every now and then to look somewhat decent.  And as expected, the person who does it is none other than Mummy!  #atthemercyofmummy #whyshecutmyhairuntilsougly As adorable as we may seem, we ain’t the easiest dogs to self-groom.  On average, it takes Mummy about a good hour to trim our nails and brush our coats. Of course, all these take place with a fair amount of struggle and one too many treats to bribe us. #notreatsnogroom  Thus, when Mummy found out about Bubbly Petz’ grooming workshop, she decided to give it a try to see if she can learn to better manage us.  Since, two related persons are allowed to accompany one dog per registration slot, Mummy dragged Daddy along.  As I’m the better behaved one of the two (well, at least I would like to think so), I was sent as the …

Conversation btw Husband and Wife

Published by

Mummy: (Pissed off face) “Did you know you tried to kill the dogs in your sleep yesterday?” Daddy: “Huh?” Mummy: “First, you rolled on Sam. YOUR ENTIRE WEIGHT ON SAM. Then you kicked Pecan off the bed. Hard. I heard her yelp when she fell off the bed.” Daddy: (Grinning) “HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA..  YESH!” We knew Daddy isn’t very fond of us.  Just didn’t realise he wanted us dead. -_- Now we are concerned. #needtostartapetitiontogetdaddyoffthebed

Here comes 2015!

Published by

Yap, yet another year has come and gone. There were some ups and downs in 2014, but overall, I think we did pretty alright.  So, we are hoping that 2015 will treat us equally well, if not better.  What better way to kick start the new year than to conform to the norm… by setting New Year Resolutions! Creativity at its best…not. #samandpecanonthebandwagon #lightbulbmoment Here goes… 1. Stop Lao-sai-ing (diarrhoea) Sad to say, both me and Pecan ah ma have been having non-stop runs for the past 1.5weeks.  Sigh~ It’s like a Merlion out of our butts.  #mybacksidepainliao #ahmashitslikesheisvomittingoutofherarse After Mummy’s failed home-remedies (pumpkin, boiled chicken and brown rice did nothing to help), she gave in and brought us to the vet.  So, the two of us are currently on ID food and a strict no-treats diet. Not to mention yucky meds. Sigh. What a shitty way to celebrate the new year.  #bekindtoourbutts So…please please please… GO AWAY STUPID STOMACH BUGS! PS: Thanks Auntie Lynne for the unglam photo -_- 2. Go for another dog-friendly …

A special gift for Pecan…

Published by

While Mummy was doing her Christmas shopping, she came across something that she thought was extremely apt for ah ma. And when she showed Daddy, he gave out a loud laugh and agreed to pay for it. Here’s Pecan ah ma’s second X’mas present. A Baby Gap Bib to catch her stinky drool. LOL… #thiskindoflousypresentIalsodontwant But again, Pecan isn’t as practical as I am. #Samnofoodnohappy And she seems pretty pleased to receive the pressie! Sadly, this does NOTHING to prevent her drooling. The last I checked, there were some drool stains on the couch. Yucks. #wastemoney #theyshouldhavespentitontreatsformylittletummy

Merry X’mas to us!

Published by

If I can have it my way…  This would be how I wanna spend my X’mas – Eating snow. Okay, I admit, and also peeing on it.  Nothing satisfies me as much as creating a yellow piece of art on a white canvas. HEHEHEHEHE #peeingonsnowisdamnshiok #Ihavethepowertomeltsnowinstantly It kinda sucks that I can’t do it anymore.  #FML Oh well, I’ll just make do. Besides, my parents don’t actually have the habit of celebrating Christmas.  In fact, they hardly celebrate anything. (Other than our birthdays!) #myparentsareboring And there’s a no Christmas tree policy in this household and the reason is pretty simple.  Cos Sammy Loo loves to pee on trees. HEHEHEHEHEHE #whynogivemechancetopeeonachristmastree Even though we did not have an out-of-the-world Christmas, Mummy did attempt to make Christmas a tiny weeny bit more exciting for us! For a start, we were given an awesome beef and salmon half log cake from Pawlicious! Ho ho ho…. We decided to do a little role-playing to add on to the non-existent festive vibes.  I’m Sam the Reinterrier and Pecan ah ma …

Dog-friendly Staycation at Conrad!

Published by

Edited: Unfortunately, Conrad is no longer dog-friendly wef 1 August 2017. We’re heartbroken that we have one less staycation option, but at least we had a great time there.  Thanks again to all the Conrad staff that made our stay so memorable.  After having a blast at last year’s Capella Staycation, Mummy decided to make a dog-friendly staycation a yearly affair at the Loo Lim Household! woohoo~ #scored #thankgoodnessmummywearsthepantsinthishousehold #luckystingydaddyhasnosay As much as we would love to head back to the heavenly Capella, they do have a one-dog only policy (boo~) and we really don’t want to resort to smuggling Pecan ah ma in. (Especially since we ain’t the quietest dogs around when there’s a pool involved)  Hehehe.  Instead, we decided to head to a hotel that allows two dogs.  Unfortunately, we really don’t have many options.  In fact, there’s only two in Singapore – Hilton Singapore and Conrad Centennial Singapore. (They are actually under the same hotel chain) Both permit up to two dogs (weighing no more than a combined weight of 34kg) in …

Sam’s Pick: Gex Pure Crystal Bowl

Published by

So, it was just another boring weekend afternoon for us….when Mummy got all cheery and started saying that she has something just for us! Of course, we jumped up from our lazing position and got all excited… Wheeee….  Fingers crossed that it’s gonna be yummy treats for our little bellies… Chants: “FOOD..FOOD..FOOD..FOOD” Mummy took out a box and started fumbling around, trying to set something up. Maybe it’s gonna be something pretty awesome and delicious.. And so we thought. When we were finally introduced to the item, our jaws dropped in disappointment. Ain’t no food man. #Mummycheatus #whynofood Instead, it was an automated GEX Pure Crystal Bowl. Pecan ah ma wasn’t very impressed. She obviously wasn’t happy that it wasn’t food.  Plus, she was a little unsure of the running water. Being the braver of the two (or so I think), I took the plunge and dived in for a sip.  Besides, cunning Mummy removed our usual bowl and played a good game of fetch with me prior to the shoot.  So I had no …

It has been a year since…..

this smelly mouth, terror, senile ah ma, Pecan came into my life… And there’s not a day that goes by where I do not ask myself this question. But the truth is… she’s here to stay. FOR A WHILE. #FML #whyamIstuckwithacrazyahma Although this genki ah ma has slowly crawled her way into the ‘supposed’ senior years, (She’s Eleven btw) she’s still as active and happy as a young puppy. #actyoung As embarrassing as it may sound, I’ve to admit that there are many a time where I could hardly keep up with her.  When we first took Pecan home last year, we were given only two items – a bed and a toy.  Unfortunately, both items smelt as bad (if not worse) than her breath at that time. #ahmahadkillerbreath #shecouldmakeyoufaintamileaway #thankgoodnessthosedaysarehistory Hence, when Mummy became fairly confident that she had adapted to our home a couple of weeks later, she tossed those items away. Truth was, she didn’t even need a week to adapt. She stole my bed the very same day lor.  #buaypaiseh Anyway, …

Halloween @ Pawlicious Bakery!

Published by

I admit. I’ve a slight phobia of Halloween. Whenever I hear that the day is approaching, I pee a little in my (invisible) pants. And the reason is totally man-made. You see, on my very first Halloween, when I was a mere adorable, cuddly little nine month old puppy, my horrible stupid mummy thought it would be fun to dress me up. So she went to the stores and grabbed me … this. Apparently, stupid mummy didn’t get the memo that Halloween is two months BEFORE Christmas.  So, yap, I ended up being Santa’s unwilling helper for Halloween. #Mummyneedsacalendar As if it wasn’t bad enough, it was actually a matching outfit to Mummy’s Santa-rina outfit.  Yap, I was stuck in a tacky matching outfit with my mother. #ultimateloser #pleaseburnthesepictures Oh, and did I mention that she actually brought me to the Halloween Parade in the Village. And I got scared shitless by the zombies in the subway and started barking at them. And there was this guy in a shower curtain stained in blood. And …
