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 …

The recent lack of post…

Published by

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

Sam’s Pick: The Foobler

Published by

Those know me personally will agree that I am rather smart. Ho ho ho ho… #inotstupid On one hand, I would like to say it’s nature and genetics (but again, Ah ma kinda proved that wrong). On the other, it’s nurture.  Since I was a pup, Mummy has always challenged me to an array of dog IQ toys, and may I say, I got pretty good at them. #bhb #samwinspawsdown On the other hand, Pecan ah ma is stupid a little dense and doesn’t take too well to IQ toys. I guess she just doesn’t have the patience to get to the bottom of it. #lazyahma Hence, when the kind people at Nekojam asked if we would like to give their new interactive toy a test-run, I was totally up for it. As for ah ma, well, as long as there’s treats involved, she’s in. So we waited patiently until we finally got our paws on the…Foobler! For a start, we were quite taken aback by it’s size. It was a good five times bigger than my …

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 …

The JRTS go hiking!

Published by

Mummy took an insane leap of faith and gamble and brought Pecan ah ma along for her very first Jack Russell Mania outing to the Green Corridor. Yap, you didn’t hear me wrong.  We actually brought the crazy smelly old lady to an outing with many other dogs. Not just other dogs, but fellow Jack Russells! It’s like crazy meet crazy. Of course, there were initial doubts if it was too much for her to handle.  But after some consideration, our parents decided to take the plunge and went right for it. Well, there was always Plan B if it didn’t work out – go back home.  (Shhh, lazy Daddy was secretly rooting for that lor) #mydaddysucks And guess what, Ah ma did beautifully.  In fact, she was perfect. She walked and walked and walked, alongside many others.  I swear I saw tears in Mummy’s eyes.  #yayayayaIexaggeratela But nonetheless, Mummy was damn proud of Pecan. So am I.  Getting ready for the hike! We kept our distance in the beginning to ensure that ah ma …

It’s Pecan’s birthday!

Published by

Yap, the crazy old woman Empress Dowager turned ELEVEN! In other words, she is technically 60 years old! You know what? Ah ma is actually eligible for the Senior Citizen Concession Card liao! #sheisasoldasgrandmummy It’s unbelievable how old she is.  I mean…. she’s almost THRICE my age and she’s like a energizer bunny! #howcanshebesoold #oldahmastillwannaactyoung Since it was her birthday, of course Mummy had awesome surprises in store for her! Mummy was actually debating whether to throw ah ma a party and invite our doggy friends over. But wait…what doggy friends? Don’t get me wrong, I’ve tons of furry buds.  #cannothelpthatIampopular But Ah ma? ERm…. let’s just say she isn’t really a dog-dog.  So to avoid a scenario where we spent $$$ and there’s only me and ah ma (and maybe Snowy) dancing around in an empty cafe, Mummy quickly decided that we should just celebrate this special day ourselves!  And who says we can’t have fun on our own? Here’s how the special day unfolds.. For a start, what’s a birthday party without a …

Sam’s Pick – Feed My Paws Mooncakes

Published by

Time flies and the Mid-Autumn Festival is back again! Wheeeeeee….. And the most important thing for this festival is of course… MOONCAKES! Knowing how much I enjoyed my mooncakes last year, Mummy decided to get me some again! Plus, we wanted Pecan ah ma to try it too. We were rather spoilt for choices as there were multiple online dog bakeries that were selling them!  But to give support and thank Auntie Crsytle for feeding our tiny tummies with tons of treats (check out our review here to find out what we stuffed ourselves silly with), we went with… *drum rolls* FEED MY PAWS MOONCAKES!! With so many yummy favorites to choose from, Mummy decided to go ahead and order the pack of SIX. It includes a mixture of savory [Beefy Cheese & Porky Cheese] and snowskin moon cakes [Durian Diva, Berry Bumbum & Pinky-Taro]. Don’t they just look so good? PS: Can you spot Pecan ah ma’s drool stains on the couch! #howcomeoldwomandroolomuchone #sounglam  Doing the sniff test to make sure they smell as …

Our pet monkeys!

Published by

Both me and Pecan ah ma have a fondness for a certain animal – Primates! So, knowing that, Mummy decided to buy each of us a pet monkey toy!  Hee, but although we are siblings, we do have very contrasting taste in the types of toys we desire.  Can you tell which is mine and which is ah ma’s? (Left: Latex Monkey Toy from Fetch-box.com, Right: Safari BraidZ Monkey from Kong) If you’ve been following ah ma’s obsession, it will be an easy breezy guess. Yap, Santa, the latex monkey toy, is Pecan’s while Mon-Mon, the stuffie is mine! Pecan ah ma is really mean to her toys.  Not only does she lick them with her stinky sweet saliva (*shrugs*), she even steps on them! #resignedmonkey I certainly wouldn’t wanna be him! #Santahasasuckylife I treat my toys wayyyy better. I usually just hold Mon-Mon in my mouth, shake the hell out of him and tear him apart little by little (I always start with the ears), I mean, play with him. See I so nice …

Twelve Nights…

Published by

is how long a dog in a Taiwanese shelter has to find a home before he gets put down.  It’s also the title of a documentary directed by Raye and produced by Giddens Ko (九把刀) and Sophia Sui (隋棠). Twelve Nights (十二夜) follows the fates of dogs from the day they are captured and placed in a shelter to the 12th day. While a handful will go on to find a forever home, more often than not, these dogs succumbed to either illnesses that are widespread in the shelter or to the deadline that man has placed upon them. Mummy knew that the film wasn’t going to be an easy watch (she is a crybaby whenever it comes to animal-related stuff), but wanted to catch it anyway. So, she bought a copy and had it mailed over to us. When it finally arrived, Mummy explained the storyline of the movie to us. She was a little undecided if she wanted us to watch it with her as there was a chance that we might be uncomfortable with …

Donut’s replicas

Published by

So, Pecan ah ma finally misplaced Donut. WAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA…. (oops… cannot appear so evil…) Ahem, I mean awwwwww~ And she was walking around aimlessly for a few days. Of course, Mummy was as upset about the missing toy as ah ma was.  Hence, it was not at all surprising when Mummy came back with not one, but two Donut replicas! O.M.G. I wasn’t too impressed in befriending ah ma’s new friends until Mummy told me some great news.. Yap, one of them is for me! Wheeeeeeeeeeee~ I initially chose the green one. But of course, Pecan decides that the grass is greener on the other side and headed for mine instead. Oh well, no point fighting with crazy old ladies.  So I happily picked up the brown one and headed to my little corner to enjoy gnawing on it. Was having a great time….  until… the ah ma decides that she wants my spot too. AHhhhhhhhhhhhh…. As usual, after Mummy had a good laugh at my plight, she slowly lured ah ma away and I had …
