Made with love (once again) – Dehydrated treats!

We got busy with Mummy’s newest toy… a dehydrator! To be exact, it’s a Rommelsacher Automatic Dehydrator. This isn’t our first dehydrator. We used to have one that Mummy brought back from the states. Too bad for us, it gave way while it was chucked away in storage during our move. So, that gave Mummy a new reason to go shopping. #mouldyliao #mummyjustwantedareasontobuyanicerone There really isn’t many options for affordable dehydrators locally. Many of the meat dehydrators range in the high $700s.  #cannotaffordlor On the other hand, way cheaper ones are available on online stores. However, they don’t come with warranty and that kinda worries Mummy a little. Thus, to be safe (especially since the devices have to be left on for many hours), Mummy decided to invest in a decent one that isn’t too extravagant nor take up too much counter space. #itissmallenoughthatwecanevenfitinthebox #wheregotdogseeboxsohappyone #showingourinnercat Wondering what we are going to dehydrate? Ta-dah~ #pecanisadumbblondeindeed #howtodehydrateacupcake  #seeIsosmart I just need opposable thumbs to help me slice this chunky meat up. #ofcoursenotla #justkidding Here’s what’s on the …

I turned SIX – my second celebration!

And my celebration continues. This time, with the second most important *cough* lady *cough* in my life. #ohmancannotbelieveIhadtosaythat For starters, we turned up for my party dressed to the nines in our new Crew La La collars. Mummy is damn ridiculous la.  When she was shopping for the collars, she was worried that the bows would get lost in our shaggy coats. Hence she decided to opt for the bigger design. Well done lor.  #nowwelookstupid #thebowisasbigasmyface Oh well, at least you can’t miss it for now. Thankfully, the bows are detachable. #phew For once, Mummy really planned ahead for my birthday this year.  #sheusuallyisverylastminuteone She actually ordered personalised bunting just for us since October last year. #wahsotouchedleh This is from ms.emmeline.pets. So cool right? It’s a pity that the clipart cannot be customised.  But we still adore it! Best of all, it is so re-usable. #bepreparedtoseeitoverandoverandoveragain The cake had to be the highlight of the party and possibly my birthday. Thank you so much Pawoof for accommodating our order! If you thought the cake looked …

Sam’s Pick: Fiverr

Yap, in case you’re wondering, Mummy’s shopping spree hasn’t quite ended. #poordaddy But on a good note, it is getting less costly. #andsowethinkla This is our ‘feel sorry’ for Daddy’s face. #nolorthisisourboreduntilcollectcowebsface Mummy was introduced to Fiverr by a friend who’s owns a startup and was looking for affordable design options. It’s actually a website that offers services and tasks with a starting price of just USD5! And boy oh boy, Mummy was hooked instantly.  Mummy’s addiction to illustrations isn’t something new. #aiyasheisaddictedtoallthingsdogrelatedla But honestly, most illustrations do not come cheap.  It’s no wonder Mummy was over the moon when she saw what Fiverr had to offer. #shehappydaddynohappy Mummy’s latest purchase: Kawaii Sam and Pecan! For Christmas she said (AGAIN). #shewillneedanewtaglinesoon  I think Pecan ah ma looks better kawaii than me. #howcomepecancuterthanme #nofairleh -_- Time taken: 10 days Amount paid: USD31.50 for two Rush order available. Order here We did say latest purchase.  And yap, that certainly wasn’t the first. Instead, this was Mummy’s first ever purchase on Fiverr. She googled pet illustration and gave the …

Pet-friendly: Everything with Fries

If you’re a long time reader cum fan of *ahem* yours truly, you would’ve noticed that since Pecan ah ma joined our family we have ceased our pet-friendly cafe outings. #thickskinsam #scarlygotnolongtimereaderstheninoface #donttellme It is because Pecan has a bit of a barrier frustration.  Which means she has the tendency to react by barking and lunging when she is unable to interact with the object of interest (be it another dog or human). This happens especially when she is on leash. Hence, alfresco dining where dogs will be tied to the table (as opposed to a pet cafe where we will be off-leashed) ain’t exactly suitable for dogs like her. #sotroublesomecan  We’ve been working on her barrier frustration and are really pleased with her progress. #shegotbetterbutigotworse #shemusthavespreadittome Despite that, Mummy is still rather hesitant to bring us to pet-friendly cafes… That was until they walked passed… Everything with Fries at Holland Village. Daddy is a sucker for fries and the dessert menu caught sweet-toothed Mummy’s eyes.  Our parents just had to stop and give it a …

Dog-friendly Smoothie

We’re dying from the heat. #whysohot #twodeaddogslyingonthefloor After seeing how lethargic we are, she decided to whip up some smoothie! #mummyisdabest #weapprove #tonguesofapproval Our dog-friendly Mango-Strawberry Smoothie! Here’s what we need: One whole mango (cut into cubes and toss the pit away) A box of strawberry (Freeze it overnight to make the smoothie ice-cold when served) A cup of plain yoghurt One teaspoon of honey (optional, especially if your mango isn’t ripe enough) Did you know? Mangoes are actually good for dogs (source)! But be careful to keep the pit away from us and feed in moderation. #yummyfoodthatisdogfriendlyisdabest What to do: Simply toss everything into a blender and blend blend BLEND. #easybreezy Giving the sniff test. #pecandoesnotcare #shejustwantstodrink #samthefaketastetester Off we went! Yumz! #mustlickeverysingledrop #pecanapprove We absolutely love it.  And unfortunately, so does Mummy #ourmotherstealourfoodagain #ourlifesucks Oh well, at least it did wonders to cool us down in the nasty heat. Hope it does the same for you too!

The Honest Kitchen Treats

So our fish craving is back and we just couldn’t resist checking our Fuzzyard pet fish, Sushi, out.  Not in a good way in case you’re wondering. #nowondermummynowanttogetusapethamster #nopetissafeinthishousehold Of course, Sushi was pretty much sweating it out. #hownottopanicwhenyouhavetwohungrydogsstaringatyou And as usual, our dearest Mummy came to his (and our tummies’) rescue by announcing that she has delectable fish treats for us. Wheeeeeeeeeee…. #mummyisdabest Okay la, we shall leave you alone Sushi….for now. HEHEHEHEEHHEEH What she didn’t mention, however, was that I had to put on the hideous fish head for the shoot. Like wt…. #grumpysam #mylifesucks #itsnotthatthetreatsnonice #itsjustthatmymothersucks #mummyisdaworst #allpissyfacepost Anyway, my shitty fate aside, Mummy actually got us yummy The Honest Kitchen fish treats!  Besides the fact that they are made using all-natural ingredients (in fact, they are single ingredient treats), they are free of artificial additives, flavour enhances and colouring. Most importantly, they are also low in calories. #sammytummytotallyapprove These treats are definitely a great choice for pets with sensitive stomach or food allergies and of course, pudgy little pooches. DISCLAIMER: MY …

Woof-A-Thon on 12 April 2015!

We’re very honoured to be invited to participate in Woof-a-thon, the first pet walkathon organised by Singapore Heart Foundation! When: Sunday, 12 April 2015 Time: 4pm to 7pm Where: Bishan Park, Grand Lawn 1 (Opposite Dog Run Area) We all know exercising is great for our health. So why not make it fun by doing it with our pets. This is exactly what this event is about! Woof-a-thon aims to advocate the cardiovascular benefits associated with walking, a low-impact physical activity which pet owners are more inclined to partake. #suddenlysoknowledgeable #seeiamsmartone #ionlypretendtobestupid #pecanisreallystupid #itakefrompressreleaseonela Although registration for the Buddy walk has closed for pet owners, participants without pets are still welcome to join in the walk for free! No worries if you’ve pets (and have missed the opportunity to register), there are many other exciting things happening on the spot as well. Needless to say, we are really looking forward to a nice day out with our parents.  Pecan ah ma can’t wait to show off her cool sneakers.  #hengshenotwearingjimmychoos As for me…. I’m stuck …

We got Mail – from Chewtime!

It’s not everyday that something interesting comes through the mailbox. It’s usually bills after bills or flyers after flyers of property that my parents cannot afford. #ineedricherparents Oh, and of course the occasional summons (hehehehehe…). Yawn~ But today, there was special something.  There was a postage for…. me and Pecan ah ma! Wheeeeeee~~ We did a quick sniff test to decipher the package. #placeyourbets We couldn’t quite guess what it was. But one thing is for sure.  It contained something edible! #ahmaalreadydrooledonthepackage  It was bully sticks from Chew Time! We actually took part in a Facebook Giveaway and won these! Heeheehee… I couldn’t take my eyes off it even while photo taking.  As for Pecan ah ma, she was a little unsure what it was. #pecanahmaisafroginawell Staying focused. Once Mummy handed them to us, I immediately took it to my mat and started gnawing on it.  #samatwork Ah ma, on the other hand, didn’t really know what to do with it and started trotting around the house, unsure of what to do with it.  After …

Sam’s Pick: Gex Pure Crystal Bowl

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 …

The recent lack of post…

The sole culprit behind the recent lack of post.. is none other than our… LAZY MUMMY! And her excuse?  Her recent addiction to the Korean Drama Master’s Sun.  For the past two weeks, Mummy has selected to abandon everything and sit right in front of the TV for one straight hour.  Yap, that means, no blogging, no photo editing..  NOTHING. Oh..and her occasional giggles and that weird smile she has on her face once in a while can get quite freaky.  #mummyisturningintoanajuma #koreandramahasstolenourmotherfromus Hey…we’re judging you. We’re counting down to the final episode of the show. RAWRRRRRRR… #giveusbackourmother #saynotokoreandramas
