Where's the turkey and ham?

Betty: I think it's snowing outside.  Clyde: Did you say bird?

Betty: Could it be Christmas already?  Clyde: What's Christmas? You smell fresh. 

Clyde: Is that ham you got in your mouth?

Betty: This is stupid.  Clyde: I heard Mum say bird again.

Enough already!!!

Seriously.

Swim

13 September 2013

Took the doggies to Pasir Ris beach today. We really want to visit Sentosa soon. Better waters and sand there. I bet Betty will love it. Clyde too. He's happy as long as he gets to be with Betty.


Be gone slippers! Clyde is very uncertain.

This is Clyde's first visit to the beach.

Betty wants to go into the water.
I really didn't expect Betty to take the initiative to start splashing around.

Waddling through shallow waters.

Such a delight watching her :)

Slightly deeper waters, she swims around me. 

Coming around.

Clyde enjoys chewing on his rubber toy. Previously Betty's.
I sniff your ear. Nice.
I kiss you.
You have a funny face.

Clyde in the House

5 July 2013

We brought Clyde home with us today. Took Betty down to meet him at the football court. Allowed them a long introduction of sniffing each other and becoming friends. Clyde isn't quite used to wearing the collar and being walked just yet. Hopefully Betty will help with him getting adjusted to walks and using the litter pan. Clyde will turn 8 months come 16 July. I hope I am successful in training him to use the litter pan by that time. At the moment, he's a happy little water hose. A crap monster as well. Urghh... all part and parcel of having a puppy. Can't wait for him to be house-broken. Still, he's now our second much equally loved tiny little beast. 


Daddy and Clyde's first picture together :)
Coincidentally both Daddy and Clyde share the same astrological star sign. They are Scorpios. Myself and Betty are Pisceans. Of course, this isn't too important. However, we love knowing that and somehow this makes us feel very close. We are one happy family. Life is so much better with dogs in the household. They bring about joy, comfort, love, commitment and responsibility. I love coming home to my fur kids. They are my love beasts!

After about an hour of getting to know each other, we all went up together. Upon opening the main door, Clyde immediately went about sniffing his new home. Betty didn't mind one bit. She was in fact very accommodating towards Clyde. I am so proud of Betty.





































Here's Clyde just hanging around in the living room. He seems at home already.






































His first meal in his new home. We feed him with Canidae - All Life Stages dry formula (Chicken, Turkey, Lamb and Fish) Compared to Betty, Clyde eats very slowly.


Nap after a meal. Betty is still Queen of the couch. A respectful little guy, Clyde respects Betty's turf. He's so sweet. 

Kitty Toy


Uncle Mike got Betty a toy, licks and nibbles show just how much she loves her new friend. Betty says "I will take care of her in a very special way." Mummy says "Thank you for the t-shirt :)"

Ramp and Tunnel

10 May 2012

We made a trip to the K9 park today. The park is situated at the rooftop corner of Nex Mall's Sky Garden. As usual, Betty could not contain her excitement. (Pet owners can access K9 Park via designated lifts and escalator located at the outside of the mall. Dogs are not allowed in other areas of the mall.) 

Up and down the ramp we go!


Through the mystery tunnel. 


"They said I might find something interesting at the end." - Curious Betty
 

Found daddy at the other end. The ball too.


As we left Betty to go about her exploration of the little park, the weather decided to turn even warmer. The blazing hot sun and humidity caused Betty to become breathless very quickly. Her heavy panting was a sure sign for us to find a cool place and recover from the heat.


We decided to pop into Doggiestyle Cafe for some food and drink. We ordered dory fish with vegetables for Betty and a simple chicken salad for ourselves. Didn't manage to take any photos of the food but here's a really nice picture that Daddy took of us.


Had a little chit-chat with the staff in the cafe. They told me the owner of the cafe owned 2 French Bulldogs. Unfortunately the 2 resident dogs of the cafe, Pickles and Tofu weren't around that day. Would have loved to meet them. Pickles, the brindle frenchie, was an abandoned dog, suffering from a bad case of yeast systemic infection. Mutts and Mittens rescued her and slowly nursed her to better health. Pickles was later adopted by the cafe owner who continued to look after her condition. As for Tofu, she was rescued from a pet shop. Another case of bad pet owners. In knowing that both dogs had gone through such unfortunate and painful experiences, I am glad that they are now in the care of responsible and loving dog owners. To find out more about Pickles and Tofu, read their story.

My Two Valentines

Picnic outing :)



 Betty kisses! Valentine kisses!


 Time for a swim :D

Fast Friends

28 January 2012

A Boston Terrier as neighbour for a week. Hope he doesn't miss her too much. We've missed Betty and we are taking her home. 


Kallang Riverside Park

A fine day for a morning stroll. We went down to Kallang Riverside Park. Seated at a bench by the river, we gobbled down duck rice and some other local delights that daddy bought from Beach Road Market. Sipped on our much needed morning coffee and started off on our stroll.


Betty surveying the grass for nutrients. Grass is a natural remedy for a dog's gassy or upset stomach. When ingested, the grass blade tickles the throat and stomach lining; this sensation, in turn, may cause the dog to vomit, especially if the grass is gulped down rather than chewed. Grass also contain certain nutrients that are good for dogs. However, do take care to avoid grass that have been treated with pesticides, herbicides and chemicals.


Daddy poses with Betty for a picture.


Moving down to the dock.


Betty inspecting the river currents at the dock.

  
Rest for a drink of water. We always make sure Betty gets enough water on her long walks. I've heard of too many cases of dogs dying from dehydration, simply due to hot weather and lack of water.


Love these photos I managed to snap of Betty all sprawled out and her wide mouth making it seem as if she were actually smiling. I'd say a healthy dog is a happy dog. We try our best to bring Betty out on regular walks, making sure she gets a lot of water, enjoys a healthy diet and is always showered with our love and attention.
