All Perth Dogs

September has been such a busy month. Here are some pics of the lovely Perth doggies.


Bella the Labradoodle. She's so cute with the 2 balls in her mouth. We have showed Tinkerbell the photo and asked her to learn picking up 2 balls in her mouth too.


Looking sad cos she had to stay outside.


Charlie and Bruce being summoned to their corner.


Moo keeping warm near the heater.


Such a sweetie.


He loved being rubbed.


Not very sure if he was allowed in the living room.

Random August



Hey look I've got a new toy!


Checking out new ways to play.






Tinker sleeps in this position quite often. I don't know how comfortable this is but her head is twisted.


Spending time outdoors with Rubie.


Tiffany just enjoying the cool evening.


Feeling happy.


Tinkerbell can't stop smiling.


I was busy watching tv and the next thing I saw was Tinkerbell holding her rabbit.

On a side note, Tiffany has shown signs of going blind. Does anyone know of any vets that can help her eyesight? In the past few days, she's been walking into walls and chair legs. Poor Tiffany.

Tinkerbell's 1st long walk

We decided to spend Singapore's National Day walking part of the new Southern Ridges. It was also Tinkerbell's 1st time going on such a trail. Couldn't take Rubie and Tiffany cos those two just cannot walk. One pants very heavily abt 500 m into the walk and the other would sit her bum down and wouldn't move if she was tired.

It was very crowded too and I think everyone had the same idea to check out the new paths.


The start of Henderson Wave.


Tinkerbell starting well.


Already panting at the end of the bridge.


She met a new friend along the way.


"I didn't know it was such a long walk."


Forest walk. Thank goodness we were walking down slope and not up.


This was one bridge that Tinkerbell did not like. She was really scared all the way and would only walk in the center. If we tried to pull her to the side to avoid people, she wouldn't budge. Everyone had to avoid her and some didn't even see her cos she was so small.


Here's how she was pulled most of the way. I realised that she was looking down all the time. It's really very high and she can see in between those lines. We were 18 metres up at the highest.


At some point, she decided she had to crouch down and walk very slowly. Notice how her body is lower and head down and tail down.

Still high up. It was quite a long walk on this bridge.


Happy on wooden flooring but still stayed to the center. Finally the end of the walk.


All tired out and sleeping in her doggie bag. It has since become her dog house.

Earth Cafe

It was our 1st visit to this doggie cafe. We weren't sure how Tinkerbell would react with all the other dogs around.


Tinkerbell curious with the surroundings.


She met her 1st friend there. Later on they became barking buddies. They were the most noisy ones around. Every new dog that came into the cafe, they announced to everyone. Tinkerbell's bark is really high and loud. I had to tell her to keep quiet or else we will never come here again!


My fish and chips.


Hubby's pork chop.


Tinkerbell's dinner. Pork and chicken with potatoes. She only ate half. I don't know if she didn't like it or she was too distracted with all the other dogs around.


Here she is eating.


2 Schnauzers sitting next to us as you can see at the top of the photo. We spent most of the time preventing Tinkerbell from disturbing them. They were so good just sitting on the chairs. Later we put Tinker on the chair and she seemed to have behaved herself better.


We resorted to spoon feeding her. I can't believe it! Cos I refuse to do this at home if not it might become a habit. She didn't end up finishing her food.

Just before we left, she got to meet 2 more jack russells and I think that made her day:D
She's fast asleep now.

How we spend our afternoons


Rubie is usually fast asleep...snoring away.


Tiffany will usually hang out with me and to make sure she spends as much time with me whenever I'm over at my parents'. She misses me too much.


Tinkerbell will change her position into a guard dog and sits outside. Never sound asleep.


Sometimes right in front of the gate.


"Hey, what are you looking at?"


"Don't take my picture!"

Murderer

Two days ago, Rubie and Tinkerbell were suddenly running around the sofa. We thought that they were catching flies. Being the hunter dogs that they are, they continued to run around. Soon, Tinkerbell ran out to the garden with something brown in her mouth!

I looked out of the window and a bird was on the grass! It looked like it was already dead. Tinkerbell picked it up again and I screamed at her and she dropped it back onto the grass. Then picked it up again and I screamed again. Later our domestic helper came and picked up the bird and it was dead already.

Meanwhile, Rubie was still sniffing around looking for the bird in the house!!! Blur. And Tiffany was just standing around wondering what all the commotion was all about... blurrer!

We have no idea if the bird was alive in the 1st place and how did it get into the house?! Did Tinkerbell bring it in?

I hate to think that Tinkerbell's the murderer. Sorry no pics as everything just happened too fast. She got a scolding anyway.

Macau and Hong Kong

I made a special trip to visit my friend in Hong Kong. It was fun but the walking was a challenge. We did so much walking my poor feet were crying. There were so much to see that I just had to continue walking. We went to Macau where she had won a 2 nights stay in the Venetian Macau Resort. I had a feeling they chose the wrong person to win since we do not gamble:P


A very friendly and smiling dog walking alone in the streets of Macau.




Some stray dogs.


The ruins of St Paul's church.


Our hotel suite!


View of the putting green from our room. We played and it was the worst putting green I ever played. It was fake grass and we had trouble finding our next hole as the numbers of the holes were all over. Since there weren't anyone playing, we just play whatever hole we saw next:P


Venetian Resort at night.


Inside the resort. You'll never know when it's night time.


It is huge! Took us a day to explore the whole place. Plenty of shops.


The only dog photo I managed to take on the street in HK. It's quite huge considering HK's small apartments. One jump and I'm sure it would be on the other end of the apartment:P Not sure what breed this dog is but it looked like it was smiling while walking.
