Ebi & Emma's Wagging Tails

Ebi n' Emma

OOooooooppss!! Hasn't had the time to update the blog for awile now, anyway there wasn't anything much happening around my kids too. =pp

First of all - Yippee! The long-awaited long weekends are finally here!! =)) Here's some of the programs that has already been planned, still trying to find more programs & places to go so as to utilise the holidays.. hahaha^^

-= Friday 18.09.09 =-

Starting as of yesterday, i brought Ebi & Emma out for dinner + night walk along with my buddy. After thinking long & hard, we decided on Beach Culture & headed there around 9.00pm~ It was great that this cafe was dog-friendly though we were only allowed on the outside dining area. The staffs were pretty much friendly with the dogs & 2 of them even came over to play with the dogs while we dine. I very much liked the place for it's ambience & service. Clean, cooling & live band with great music & nice songs! Oh, though the dogs are not allowed on chairs, but the ground is dry & clean enough for me to safely allow the duos to lie down. The food was pretty good to me, but i almost puked on the Spaghetti Bolognese (not that it is not nice, in fact it tastes good.. but the portion was darn HUGE!! LOL) I was taken aback slightly when i saw the plate of pasta infront of me, of coz at the end i left enough portion for a 2nd person to eat too. Kekeke~ Oh, we too ordered the snacks - Nuggets & Rings + Potato Wedges (big serving too!) The dogs got to enjoy the wedges too (w/o the 'fried skin', just the potato inside) for my effort of peeling/slicing off the skin. No wonder my parents always says the duos are too pampered by me. (",) Time passes quicky, it was so relaxing that we didn't notice we had already been there for 2.5 hours! We went for a short walk around the park later on..~ Oh! Since it was our 1st time there, we had almost went to the wrong cafe (Silvery Moon) when i see another 2 pooches dining with their owners there.. tsktsk~

Did i mention Emma was being unfriendly again? She had to get so agitated & bark off the waiter/waitress coming near our table when all they wanted was to play with her? Sigh, when will she ever learn.. :( Nevertheless, im glad most of the time she was contented to just stay underneath the table & hide among my legs (hoping that other people will not see her & come over to pat her?) while waiting for the treats i brought with me. Ebi was the good boy on the other hand (he oways is & most of the times he behaves himself.. hahaha =p) & was contented to just sit beside our chairs - watching the crowds comes & leaves, servers walking around & occasionally wagging his short tail when people wanna play with him. He was so quiet & reaction-less, sitting there like a statue that i think, most of the people never noticed him at all! Not to mention that he's black & the place was pretty dim. Muahahaa~

-= Saturday 19.09.09 =-

Nothing much planned for today since im heading out with my family tonight & i need to be home to do the household chores, pack my wardrobe & eg. so i could jolly well enjoy my sunday & monday. =pp

It's raining heavily when i am posting this entry, i hope it 'dries' up the sky so we could have the sun tomorrow to bring the dogs out for an outing! Ebi & Emma shall stay @ home & recharge themselves for the walkie tomorrow. Anyway, the floors will all be wet later also & i don't fancy them having wet paws. Hurhur^^

I'm so looking forward to finishing work @ 1.00pm (2 hours to go) so i could take my nap at home first b4 i start my chores. *yawns*

-= Sunday 20.09.09 =-

Ade suggested that we bring the dogs for a morning walk & head for lunch together. Of coz i jio-ed Rachel & Josephine along with their schnauzers. Gary, Winnie & Pamela cannot make it, thus the few of us would just proceed & meetup at 9.30am~ Ebi & Emma would be very very happy to get to meet their pals tomorrow!

After the walk, we'll proceed to K9 cafe for lunch. We could have our meals there while the dogs gets to have their meals too, from USDB. Furthermore, they gets to roam around the place & play chase with each other while we continue to dine! =))

After the morning/noon events, we'll proceed home as it's bathing time again for Ebi & Emma! I'll give them a good scrub & massage, make sure they are fresh & clean, smelling wonderful. They will be able to get a good night rest after a long long day..~ I'll probably go & play Mahjong while they sleeps. (",) Can't wait!

-= Monday 21.09.09 =-

Nothing planned yet. Most importanly, i need to replenish & recharge myself. Need tons of sleep to accomplish that. I'll plan my programs after i awakes. Geez!

On tuesday 25th, Grandpapa turned 82 years old~ Relatives & friends - all of us attended the birthday party held @ a bungalow chalet in Pasir Ris. I brought Ebi with us this time round & make him wear his new booties as i didn't want him to dirty his paws (only 3rd day after his bathing session).

Emma did not get to come along as she mis-qued & peed twice out of her pee-tray @ home!! As a punishment, she's made to stay home & look after the house.. haha^^ I did pity her & wanted to bring her along - but i was contemplating for a long long time coz i knew there will be some kids present. I was lucky we decided not to bring her in the end coz indeed there were many kids around & there were even 2 irritating cats roaming around the bungalow - Emma seriously hates them!! =(

Ebi walked awfully when i first put the new shoes on him. The way he tried to walk & run was so funny. Nevertheless, he got used to it after awhile & he could later on walk/run/jump comfortably in it.

My niece - Maegan. Very adorable & lovely.
Un-afraid of Ebi & Emma - she likes to sayang Ebi~ She would look for him if he's out of her sight..

p/s; the irritating & un-deterrent cat. he/she keeps coming over to disturb Ebi even tho he avoided the cat! the cat would have been dead meat if it was MerMer~

All of us had fun~! By 11pm, Ebi got so tired 'entertaining' all the guests & following us all around the chalet - he concussed. LOL~ There were karaoke sessions cum dancing sessions, mahjong & beer drinking sessions. Everybody was enjoying themselves so much that at certain point, the guests got alittle 'high' @ the party~ Hahaha^^ I'll try & bring Emma with us next time. (",)

Josephine passed 2 sets of doggy shoes (for Ebi & Emma) to me last Saturday when we met @ Sentosa. She bought ALOT from BKK coz all her trios uses shoes esp Ozzy.

In the past, i do not fancy dogs wearing doggy shoes coz to me - i felt is too fanciful. Moreover, dogs sweats thru their tongue & paws - in such a climate @ Singapore, i do not think shoes are necessary, is more like - fashion accesory. Perhaps, otherwise adviced by Vet for medical reasons or the dogs have very sensitive paw-pads & eg. =pp

I was wrong! The shoes does comes in handy sometimes - especially in rainy weathers (where we do not want their paws to get wet & have those 'tiny creatures' sticking onto their fur ard the paw & so..) Friends whom knew me well, knows that after my duos bathing session every weekend (Sat/Sun), i do not walk them nor bring them outta the house for at least the next 3 days following. Reason being - i wish to keep them as clean & fresh as possible & i hate to dirty their paws (cos i loves smelling their paws!) LOL~~

Last sunday Ebi insisted & was persistent on following us out for breakfast - so we brought him along & i decided to make him try & walk on his new shoes. We carried him all the way to the car (didn't allow him to walk on the ground & floor was wet too =pp) & later put on the shoes for him in the car. The shoes fits nicely (thanks Jo!) & Ebi didn't try chewing it off either after we said NO. When he arrived & parked, Ebi started walking & all of us broke out laughing. It was so funny & cute, he walked awfully - like a duckling! I insisted & make him walk slowly, allowing him to try & get used to the shoes. After awhile, it was better - he could walked more naturally except occasionally, he would stop in his track coz the shoe on 1 of the paws was loose~ hahaha^^

Sudden urge, i brought Ebi down to PLC yesterday & bought him a pair of new shoes (as spare). This shoe has a zipper + velcro which deems more secured on their paws. Freakingly, it costed $28+ for a set of 4 (more exp than my charles & keith slipper! *pouts*). Didn't buy for Emma yet coz i wanted to make sure she can fit into the same size as Ebi's shoes. Great!! Now i have no more worries about bringing the dogs out (even if it turns rainy suddenly) or when the floor is wet. I can even bring them for short walks after their bathing sessions coz both of them have their own shoes now. Definately, they will still be out w/o shoes, the shoes are only worn on them when necessary. Hurhur^^

Oh btw, Emma can fit well in Ebi's shoes nicely. So i went online to search & managed to buy this set of shoes for Emma too. PLC @ East Point didn't have this colour coz they are only left with the red - which i finds it too bright. Kekeke. MerMer's set of shoes costed much cheaper @ $14+ (free shipping summore)! Darn. PLC's price is doubled! Oh well~~

Ebi's shoe! Blue w/ white trim. (wanted black, but only left with this & red..)

Emma's shoe! Pink w/ silver trim.

It's Grandpa's birthday today & we have a chalet @ Pasir Ris Park. I'll don the shoes on the dogs tonight (so they can run around the bungalow & the garden w/o dirtying their paws) & bring them along with me. If I sees Emma behaves & never misses peeing into the tray @ home - i'll bring her with us. Otherwise, her punishment is to stay home & look after the house while her Korkor Ebi comes with us. Muahahaaa~

Ebi n' Emma

Yep yep, we were off to Tanjong Beach again on Saturday noon! This time round, we have Dodo/Momo, BonBon, Cobi/Clover, Ozzy/Tessie/Rocky & of coz, Ebi & Emma. =pp

We reached the beach nearly 5pm & joined the crowd. The sun was shining brightly & i was melting under the sun. Nevertheless, i brought the dogs to the sea & got them to swim. They didn't swim much coz i wasn't swimming as i didn't want to get into the waters. Instead, they were lingering with their pals on the shore. =)

By 6+pm, we were out of the waters & went off to rinse the dogs. Again, i sent the duos to Gladys for bathing while buddy & i went to 'la-kopi' while waiting for them to be done. Met Ash & ZacZac in the shop & got to play with them for awhile too. Picked the dogs up @ 8.15pm & headed home to feed them dinner. I took my bath & rest before i headed off to Dbl'O for Cat's bdae gathering @ 10+pm.

Enough of talking, here's the pics;-

Casper, ain't he handsome? Personally find him very cute & friendly.
