Pet Expo 2015

Hehehe, the most exciting weekend for pooches living in Singapore is here!  ‘Cos it’s PET EXPO 2015. And we went a little cray-cray there today. #justalittlecraycray #ourloot #pleasedonottelldaddy  Yap, Mummy is THAT obsessed with us. As we wanted to beat the crowd (parking woes especially), Mummy decided to bring us there on the first day.  We waited patiently (not) while Mummy went to collect our tickets. #barelycontainingourexcitement This was Pecan ah ma’s first Pet Expo and she was loving it.  #thetailsaysitall As for me, (I was here last year to help Mummy out with her work then) I’m loving how much bigger the fair is this time round. Not only are there more exhibitors, the variety has increased! #gotsparkleinmyeyekindaexcitinglor We started by taking a look at the whole place and planning where to drag Mummy to. #thatisourgameface Of course, our first stop just had to be…. the Tiny Krew Booth!  To meet the love of my life – Jager!!!!! Hehehehehhee!  I missed him so much la. #pecanonlywantedtodrinkfromhiswaterbowl #shenocareabouthim Once we said our “His” and exchanged …

Sam I am

Mummy always tell people that I am an ABCD, an American Born Chinese Dog. Cos, I was born in the United States! Not only that, I am actually a true-blue New Yorker! Here’s how my story goes… Daddy was posted to New York for a work stint and of course, Mummy tagged along. #noitisnottaitailifeitishousewifelife Mummy has always wanted a dog (since she was a kid). So, there was no better time to have one when she has three years on her hands to kill in a foreign place. Hence, Mummy started researching about shaggy dogs and came upon Rough Coat Jack Russell Terriers. She also found a breeder (MeadowBrook Russell) in New York. And lucky her, there was a puppy available! Yap, it was yours truly. WAHAHAHA.. The picture that sealed the deal! My parents drove an hour that very weekend to check on me and to speak to my breeder, Patti. They always said that I was a fraud. After all, I gave them tons of kisses when we first met. (Once I went home with them, all …

Happy 5th Barkday to Sammy Loo!

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

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 …

Here comes 2015!

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 …

Our ohpopdog collar!

Our parents abandoned us and spent a weekend on their own.  So when they came back with a paper bag for us, we instantly forgave them for leaving us behind for a movie date. We had really high hopes for whatever was in the bag.  Granted that it was a little flat to be filled with treats, but with a logo of a Frenchie and a name like ohpopdog, things can’t go that wrong right? Maybe it’s thin prata for dogs? #hopingforthebest So I took a couple of investigative sniffs… And to my utter disappointment…there was nothing edible in it! #mylifesucks #myparentsabandonedmeanddidnotevenhavethedecencytobuymesometreats By now, I was so sian that I didn’t even bother to pose for Mummy anymore. On the other hand, Pecan, being the senile silly ah ma, decided to remain hopeful and continued to smile. #spoilmarket In case you’re wondering what’s in it, it’s actually a handmade bow tie collar by local dog-wear designer, ohpopdog! Actually, Mummy has been following the brand for a while (at Public Garden Fleas) and has always wanted …

Sam’s Pick: A Dog’s Life Salon

Dearest Mummy took an off day on a lovely weekday last week.  And we were overjoyed to be able to sleep in on a Tuesday and were anticipating that we would be going somewhere fun with Mummy for the entire day. Just when we couldn’t wait to find out what’s up next, we sensed that something was not right as Mummy wouldn’t stop making us pose in various positions. (And that felt awfully familiar) And that rang a bell…. *den den den den* Nooooooooooo~ Yap, we were 101% right. Our little bubble burst.  #resigned #mylifesucks #mummyishorrible Well, in a way, Mummy did surprise us a little.  Instead of our usual salon, she brought us to A dog’s life pet salon that is located at Tiong Bahru.  So atas~ Now we are officially hipster dogs too! When we saw the exterior, we definitely had to give it a paws up for its decor!  Who wouldn’t love a “Dog Parking’ section outside a store? In fact, it’s brilliant! Except that we can’t park ah ma there.  She will …

Outing to West Coast Park Dog Run!

We typically spend our saturdays swimming. But since we’ve an exciting pool party tomorrow, Mummy decided to bring us to the WCP dog run instead!  So we dragged Daddy out to have some outdoor fun with us! (He wasn’t too pleased as usual) When we got there, we were super lucky! It was totally empty! I swore I could hear Mummy cheering. Pecan ah ma isn’t dog friendly. Hence, our parents had chosen the ungodly hour of 1pm to head to the outdoors, with the hopes that other owners aren’t as insane as them and thus, there will be no other dogs.  Well, in the occasion that there are people as crazy as her, Mummy does have a backup plan! She and Daddy will split up (ie. she’ll continue to walk ah ma outside while I enter the park with Daddy).  Needless to say, she was over the moon to find it empty! Guess she wasn’t the only one… We were pretty excited too! We spent a good ten minutes exploring and claiming the vicinity …

Our lives through an iPhone – A darn Good Friday

I adore public holidays that fall on weekdays. It’s like this lovely little treat for me and Pecan ah ma! Being the crazy obsessed dog parent Mummy is, of course most of such special occasions are devoted to the two adorable pooches. (Our resigned Daddy has no choice but to abide to Mummy’s demands) Wahahahhah! #myparentsaredogslaves So, I pretty much spent most of Good Friday (that was last week btw) getting quality massages from Daddy! A clearly satisfied customer. While Pecan ah ma spent her morning tormenting our new toy. Geesh, she looked so pleased with herself! Of course, we also took some time off to wish one of our favorite persons in the world… A VERY HAPPY Nth BIRTHDAY! We love you, GodMummy!!! Why can’t every Friday be a good friday? Boooo~

Made with Love – Carrot Juice and Yoghurt Pupsicles!!

Thanks to Mummy’s willingness to indulge us, we’ve come to expect something special every weekend. (Hee, yap, weekends are my cheat days k!) Like other Saturdays, we sat around restlessly waiting for something good to pop up in front of us. But unlike other weekends, half the day had passed and there was still no signs of anything spectacular! So, we decided to speak up for our rights and demand something from Mummy. Unable to resist our adorable faces, Mummy finally lifted her butt of the sofa (yes, we are all couch potatoes), walked into the kitchen and whipped out her new toy – Zoku’s Mini Pop Molds! She also took out a packet of Mixed Carrot Juice and some low-fat yoghurt. Within seconds, she was done! (Diao~ we couldn’t understand why she didn’t do it earlier! Especially since it was so easy!! Boooo~) Well, at least we got to lick the almost empty yoghurt cup clean! Forgiven~ By now, we were so excited and couldn’t wait for the real treat. Only to be told …
