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 …

A dog’s box!

Who says boxes are only for cats? As a Canis Lupus familiaris (aka dogs), we can be rather fond of this magic cardboard too! One of Daddy’s online shopping (prob one of his war hammy related stuff) came in an extremely big box. Just when Daddy was about to toss it out, Mummy had an idea and decided to let us have some fun with it. So with a penknife, she cut over a couple of openings and viola~ My little boxy fortress! It was pretty awesome. It was so much fun hiding in it. Hee, I swear Mummy couldn’t find me and kept walking past me without realizing! #myfortisinformidable  A happy camper in his little fort. Sigh~  Too bad for me, Pecan ah ma decided that she wanted to join in the fun as well.  So she forcefully squeezed in MY the box with me. #notimpressed Ah ma clearly loves it too.  (Spot me sulking in the background?) She was small enough to weave in and out of the cutouts. Not pleased that my privacy …

Say a little doggy prayer…

Mummy says that if I pray for something, it might just come true. So I gave it a shot… “I want some treats….please oh please” And VIOLA~ I was rewarded with some of my favorite treats in the world – Dear Deer Kneecaps and Neck steaks! Mummy swears by them as they are the very few treats that can keep me occupied for as long as thirty minutes! The rest are usually gone in seconds.  (Shhh, I love it so much that I will also growl when Mummy attempts to come near me when I’m enjoying one.) Of course, being the sweetheart I always am, I was more than glad to share some with Pecan ah ma.  We were so excited.  In fact, ah ma couldn’t stop drooling! #sogross So typical of the un-ladylike Pecan.  And when we finally each got one… the rest was history.  We gave Mummy the thirty minutes of peace she deserved while we gnawed to our hearts’ delight! Shall add it to my mid-year resolution to say a little prayer …

Our weekly groom

It’s time for something we anticipate weekly… Our weekly brush! It usually starts out with a round of furminator, which me and Pecan ah ma HATE! Mummy has to wrestle us to get that done, hence no pics, We dislike it as it can get a little pricky when she combs us. But Mummy’s a fan as it is really effective in removing stray hair. Thankfully, the second part of our weekly groom is wayy more bearable. Actually, it’s even kinda enjoyable! Using a pin brush, Mummy tries to neaten our coat and scratch any other stray hair left behind. It really feels darn good! As if we were having a good belly scratch! If you’re wondering if Jack Russells shed. Yes, we do. In fact, we shed a new dog everyday. There was so much hair that it could be rolled into a fur ball! Maybe we should do something with that hair.  Like weave it into a toy? We were brainstorming for some cool ideas. Of course, as usual, Mummy has other plans. …

Craftholic bunny!

Mummy and Daddy went shopping for a birthday presents today and along the way, they also stopped by Craftholic to buy each of our four cousins a small stuffy each. While looking around, one of the bunnies caught Mummy’s eye and she thought that it would suit Pecan perfectly! So she attempted to convince Daddy. Of course, his first reaction was ‘No’. Typical~ But after some persuasion, Daddy gave it and bought something for all the little girls in his life! Mummy – 2314231231 vs Daddy – 0 And when they brought it home, Pecan ah ma was over the moon! Fitting her small built like a T. She’s totally owning it. You think it’s the end of the story? Tsk tsk tsk… Nooooooo… of course not. Ho ho ho… When Mummy called her over to the kitchen to reward her for posing for the shots, I did what any rascal cunning dog normal boy will do. I STOLE HER BED. WAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA  It’s so comfy~~ Me likey~  Now I’m a little upset why Daddy din’t buy …

Our newest toy – An Instax Share Printer!

So Mummy had her eyes on an Instax Share printer for a long loooong while. The only thing was that it was a little costly. And when she finally couldn’t take it anymore, she sent Daddy the link and requested for him to buy it for her as a gift. And that almost THREE weeks ago. Everyday for three weeks, Mummy would come home expecting a parcel for her.  But it never came. Why? Cos Daddy kept forgetting. Mummy would always end up disappointed and proceed to nag Daddy to buy it soon. Tsk tsk tsk “Daddy, how can like that?” *Disapproving looks* And when Mummy surprised Daddy with a PS4, he must have felt like shit and quickly got around to buying the printer. (See la~ Guilty then buy. PUI~) Within two days, the printer arrived! As usual, we were pretty excited whenever there’s a box! Can’t wait to find out what’s in it. We’re keeping our paws crossed that it’s treats. When Mummy opened it, I was in disbelief. NO TREATS AGAIN?! Even …

Daddy’s new toy

Mummy had to work late and tasked Daddy to watch over us for the evening.  However, stupid Daddy actually ditched us at Grandmummy’s and by the time Mummy came home, she was rather pissed to find us missing. Yap, there was no welcome dance from me and Pecan. Booooooo~ To make things worse for Daddy, Mummy actually bought him a big pressie. So when he saw the present, he let out an apologetic and sheepish smile. Stupid Daddy. Just to make sure that we didn’t miss out on the surprise, Daddy actually waited for us to return home to unveil the present. We were elated to see such a huge box! “Is it a box full of treats?!?” Daddy: “It’s not edible! And it’s mine!” Huh? For once, the exciting item that came through our door wasn’t for us. Oh well… And we weren’t sure if we were allowed to use the contents of the box. And when Daddy said yes, we couldn’t wait to find out what the amazing item was.  I mean, it’s …

I am FIERCE!

Mummy showed me a picture of my best bud, Jäger and I was in awe! He looked so fierce! Rawrrrrrrrrrr No wonder he can scare off his brother (Snowy, the goldie) easily. I wanna be like him!! Maybe this way I can stop being a wuss and finally scare Pecan ah ma off. (She’s the Empress Dowager of the household btw. Yap, in other words, she wears the pants.) #mylifesucks So I started practising, hard.  Here’s my best attempt! Mummy couldn’t stop laughing when I showed her my ‘mean’ face.  In fact, she kept calling me a “Gu Niang“ So horrible. I think I look quite vicious ma. But as usual, Pecan ah ma agrees with her.  She just wouldn’t give a damn about me and my ‘fierceness’ and simply walked away when I confronted her. #whyyounogivemeface Oh well, guess I just have to work harder.  Grrrrr

Our lives through an iPhone – Our weekend!

It’s a pity weekends are so short. But just having two days isn’t going to stop us from having a fulfilling weekend! We started our Saturday at Grandmummy’s! Unfortunately, we also started on the wrong foot and got punished for being mischievous.  #notmyfault Wonder why?  Pecan ah ma was barking at the neighbor who just came home and I decided to join her on her rant.  Like that also got punished. Pui~ Thankfully, Mummy let us off after a quick lecture! Wheeee~ Pecan ah ma attempting to score brownie points by acting cute. As for me, I vented my anger (for being maligned) on Angry Bird! (which also happened to be ah ma’s favorite toy) Ho ho ho… When all was forgiven and forgotten, our parents whipped us away and brought us for a swim! Pity we got caught in the rain doing so. #soakedchicken It started raining cats and dogs and our parents had no choice but to end our weekly highlight earlier. Even worse, Mummy had to bathe us at home! Yucks! Pecan …

Cole turns O-N-E!

I attended my very first dog birthday party for the year!! Of course I came dressed for the occasion! It’s Cole’s birthday!!! This charming fellow officially turned one-year-old (even though he weighs x3 of me!)! Welcome to adulthood dude.. The party was held at Paw Pet-radise Cafe. Cole’s awesome Daddy booked the whole place for two hours for us to create havoc! Besides being a closed door event, there was some yummy finger food for the humans and paw food just for dogs! The party was really relaxing and we pretty much just spent our time… sniffing butts, Making new friends. Meet Smiggle, the American Cocker Spaniel, who secretly has a crush on me, maybe because I’m American too. Sorry babe but I’m taken. Goofing around. Bunny Sam wishes you Happy Easter~ Most importantly,  begging for food. I started with a more subtle attempt by sitting around where food is. Was a little surprised that my charms didn’t work.  Mummy said it was because I already had three meatballs. Where got enough??  I’m a growing …
