Chicken soup for the dog lover's soup & Amazing Grace

Read these books after recommendation from forum.
Amazing Grace is about this dog which refused to eat any pet food until the owner started to bake for her. This sparked the start of the "three dog bakery" for dog. The receipe for baking peanut cookies for Mico came from the "three dog bakery receipe book"

Chicken soup is all about heart to heart tales about dogs and their owners. Mainly big dogs, retriever, german shepard & small dogs only terrier.

This morning, Mico nugged my hand at 9am with her head. It then dawned on me that Mico had been doing that almost daily at the same time. It is her way of asking me to wake up without barking..haha. To think that I had already put a stop to her waking me up with barking months ago. Din realise that she has already found another way..hahaha

Belated Bday Celebration with frens

My dear pals arranged for a belated bday gathering at Fish & Co. Bought me a very delicious chocolate cake and nice bag as a present.

At Fish & Co, the entire crew would announce your birthday to the customers at the restaurant. Initially, they asked me to stand on the chair which I rejected. Then I was asked to at least stand up which I obliged. I thought my fren J, sabo me..hahaha. After which they gave me a stick of firework and gave 3 cheers and sang me a bday song. I tot it was quite embarrasing but it was such a sweet gesture of my frens to arrange this for me. hehehe. Nevertheless, being the thick-skin me (cultivated from my job), I wasn't too shy to accept this.

It was also kinda romantic with all the surprises. J remarked if only she were a guy but then again, she does not have the height. hahaaha. Anyway it's been a long time since I celebrated my bday with any pals. Really appreciated it as my J's gal was down with fever but she still did not cancel the gathering.

Current job really sucks big time but it's the frenship & colleagues that keeps me around this job. How often does one get to meet such good pals & nice colleagues that makes u feel like it's 2nd home & a rather nice superior?

Rover on board 16 July to 22 July

Rover is so cute. Brought him to Botanic Gardens to run. Oh my, he can run very fast and pull me along.

What a sweet surprise

hubby got these for me for our 1st customary wedding anniversary. He had it delivered to SAF yacht club, where we were staying over for 2 nights. What a sweet surprise. I love it.
Handmade chocolate, my favourite flowers and a nice wine.

Pet boarding - 26 June to 2 July

boarding 2 cute dogs. A 9 yr old poodle, JJ & her daughter, Monster, a poodle cross with shetland. Very pretty gal.

Monster was barking her head off during the 1st & 2nd day when we went to work. Afraid that neighbours would complain, I recorded their movement for the 1st 45 mins (the max my camera would record). She was practially barking her head off.

They are supposed to be outdoor trained but for the 1st 2 days, hubby came back to find the floor very dirty, full of LS.

Poor Mico was also very fraid of them and we had to separate them (mico in my room and the gals in the kitchen for 1st 2 days)

Initially, we confined them in the kitchen. But smart JJ could always figure her way out. She outsmarted me so many times till I gave up confining them. Since their toilet habits seemed to be normal after the 1st 2 days, I let them roam around the house. Luckily they did not fail me. Happy to come back no damage done.

My only damages so far are. A wet cushion (with pee), a spoilt laundry net, a hole in my laundry basket.

Today, the gals no longer bark when we leave the house. When we returned home, there were no damages, no urine, no poo to clear. The gals were happily welcoming us at the door. It felt as if I am their owner..hahaha. No hint of missing their owner at all.

Brought them jogging today. JJ, though a senior dog, tried her best to move along with the Mico & Monster. Mico has already gotten used to the gals. Could even put her & Monster on coupler lease. We had so much fun. It was so fun to see them walking on 1 single leash (a coupler with hook on the 1st leash to hook the 2nd leash. At least JJ could walk behind Mico & Monster.

Now the dogs are happily snoozing in my room. 3 dogs, 2 humans, all in 1 room when we live in a 4 room flat. Guess they're happy with the squeeze. So am I.
