Buckle up!

Mummy bought Pecan ah ma her very own Buddy Rider.  (Oh wait, Daddy just told me that he paid for it. Oops) And when it arrived, we got to try it out! The logistics behind getting the foldable bikes, the Buddy Riders and two adorable dogs safely to the east side of the country was unbelievably challenging.  My parents spent an hour in the morning pumping air into the bikes’ tyres (while me and ah ma chillax by the side). Ten minutes went to transporting the bikes down and another 20 figuring how to load everything into the car. We were so behind schedule by the time we started! After some unloading and assembling, we finally got buckled in!   I was all comfortable and ready to jet off.  Pecan was a tad bit uncertain and took a while getting used to it. Pecan still a little hesitant. After a quick pep talk from me, she was all excited to go! And off we went~ I followed Mummy while Daddy took Pecan.  The lovely breeze …

Chasing Waves…

We had a blast this weekend doing what we do best – chasing waves!!! My awesome parents brought us to East Coast Park for lunch, some beach-time and cycling! Pecan is a natural bikini ah ma!  The moment my parents dropped our leashes, off she went, crashing into waves (barking at them as well) and running along the shoreline! Of course, I cannot lose la and did exactly the same! After having some ‘shiok’ run-free time, we got into a game of tag!  First, I got to chase Pecan.  Aiya~ no kick and I caught her easily! Tag! You’re it! Too bad for Pecan, she wasn’t quite my opponent and just couldn’t catch up! Nay-nay-nay-boo-boo~ *Smug look*   We eventually grew tired of the game and decided to just enjoy the waves and the beach! It was the best thing ever. Except for one tiny winy complaint – the water tasted disgusting!! And ah ma was so mean when I tried to bitch about it. BOoo~ We were really disappointed that we had to leave …

Our weekends..

This is how a normal weekend goes… We wake up to awesome massages, compliments of Daddy. Used to be better, but with Pecan’s demands to be met, I’ve to say that the standard has fallen. Tsk tsk tsk. We put on our best begging face while Mummy enjoys her TV lunch. I surrender to the boss of the household to get on her good boots for the week. We get ferried off to somewhere exciting. To the swimming pool for our weekly swim to be exact. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee~ Reach home and crash. Wake up and have a quick playtime. Eat our dinner. Finish it quickly Then, put on our begging face AGAIN while our parents have theirs. Weekends are the best!

Something came in the mail for us today!! Yes!  It’s…. dog tags!!!! Well, Mummy decided to create some tags from her favourite Dog Tag Art (it’s based in USA, but shipping here is a flat rate!) for us.  Actually, it was meant for Pecan, but I just hitched a ride and got some good out of it too! Ta-dah~ Haha, kinda obvious which belongs to who right? For ah-ma, Mummy chose existing designs that suited her personality! For me, Mummy decided to customise one using my very own portrait! Awesome isn’t it? The foxy ah-ma posing with her new tag. I’m showing off mine too!! Nice as they are, they ain’t the cheapest tags around. Hence, Mummy spent a little more money to invest in a protective rubber rim that helps prevent the tag from getting scratched around the edges. Best of all, the cushion also acts as a silencer. Hence, if you have multiple tags on your collar, you won’t be haunted by the chinking sound! Thoughtful huh!

The squirrel-hunting

I taught Pecan ah-ma how to hunt a squirrel and with our combined efforts… we did it!!!!!! Wahahaha… our catch of the day! As fun and as successful it was, it sure was exhausting! We were pooped by the end of it. But squirrel hunting really is the best job ever!!!!  Terriers FTW!

Mummy’s TOP THREE presents!

Yes, yes. Christmas is a time of giving. But let’s admit it, everyone is expecting to receive something in return.  (I know I am. Hehehe) As always, Mummy and Daddy spent a great deal of time and $$ Christmas gift shopping this year!  And as the norm, there were some hits and many misses in the presents they got from others! Hee, so, with Mummy’s permission, we decided to share her top 3 presents! Here goes… At third place is… her Muji Scottish Terrier Tic-Tac-Toe board! (image from Muji) Actually, Mummy saw this a few months ago and really liked it. However, she couldn’t bring herself to buy it at the price it was selling. So she was super happy to receive it from Rusty’s Mummy!  WHeeeeeeeeeeee! Pecan ah-ma and I decided to challenge each other to a game.  Bring it on.. Sighhhhh…Dang it.  #Losingsucks Well, she won cos I let her start first k.  Hmph. *sulks* Oh well, at least we had a good game! Moving on… At second place is…   a Relish Everyday Tote …

Christmas pressies for the dogs!

Happy (belated) boxing day! Hee, we were so busy over the festive season! It’s only now that we finally had time to sit down and open our pressies! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.. And we felt so loved indeed to be showered with all these lovely gifts! A closer look at our loot! Thank you Rusty’s mommy and (human) sisters (x4), especially Cousin Erin for spending her own pocket money to buy us even more treats! *Muackz* Thank you Uncle Liang, Auntie Huien and Dot for the awesome water bottle! (Hee, the funny part was Uncle Liang bought the bottle when I was still the only child and he was abit worried that it is too big. And interestingly, Mummy went ahead and adopted Pecan ah-ma. So  it totally worked out as the bottle will serve both of us just nice now! Lucky~) And, thank you my mother-in-law Auntie Charmaine for her thoughtful gifts too! Pecan looking foxy in pink! Hee, her rogz collar actually matches mine, though mine is orange! And I got a Chomper!  Hee, trying to imitate …

Our Christmas eve dinner…

My parents are crowd-avoiders and heading out on a day like this is an absolute no-no.  Since it was a special occasion and Mummy did get off work early, she decided to step into the kitchen and do some cooking. (Yes, she can cook. Not the best in the world, but not terrible enough to kill) Hee, likewise, to reward us for being great kids for the year (Well, of course, it’s mainly me. Pecan only hopped on the wagon halfway), she actually prepared a special dog-friendly portion for us! MUMMY, YA DA BEST! Mummy prepared the Oven baked chicken with carrots and potatoes. The dog-friendly version was made using skinless and boneless chicken breast with a reduced amount of olive oil. In addition, Mummy sprinkled some parsley on ours for some breath-benefit (*glances at Pecan*). She also cooked it for a shorter time since the portion was smaller and she didn’t want the breast meat to be too dry.  We were waiting patiently for our dinner. However, ah-ma was so excited about dinner that Daddy had …

Our new bed

It’s bad enough [for daddy] that Mummy’s office is located at an industrial area since there are tons of warehouse sales happening in the vicinity.  It’s even worse when it’s a lifestyle furniture store (Egg3) having one. (Yes, Mummy is a sucker for home furnishing) BUT… Unlike Daddy, we are always happy when Mummy brings home new stuff she bought as more often than not, they are for US! Wheeeee….. #wedaboss Obviously in Mummy’s dictionary, there is no such thing as “too many beds” and we are pretty aware of her addiction. Hence, we weren’t overly surprised when she purchased a floor cushion that doubles up as a bed for us! (I swear Daddy let out a sigh when he saw it. HAHAHA) Thank you Mummy for my new bed! Just when I was enjoying and relaxing on the comfy cushion, Pecan ah-ma crawled up sneakily beside me and settled down. WHY?! That’s when reality stuck. My only child days are over.  Booooooo…. Well, at least Pecan ah-ma seems to like the new bed as …

A piece of me.. on the FRIDGE!

A package arrived for Mummy today.  As usual, I get the first sniff. Wondering what was it in? Ta-dah~ My very own… FRIDGE MAGNETS by Pop Doggie. Mummy previously customised a portrait of me  . Fedup with the lack of nice magnets, she decided to head back to the etsy store and using the same image, create magnets of me! A close up. Awesome isn’t it? And to feed Mummy’s recent obsession with cats, she decided to get a kitty magnet too! Pecan ah ma seems to really like them and was a little disappointed that there were none of hers. But guess what, I heard Mummy mentioning to Daddy that she’s gonna get a portrait of Pecan done too! (Well, before Daddy could comment, Mummy walked away. And he let out a resigned sigh. HAHAHAHAHAH) Good for you ah ma~! Meanwhile, can you spot the magnets? PS: Please ignore the expiry dates. The items were long gone. And yes, Mummy is that lazy. Mummy made five and is planning to give both sides of …
