The Ups and Downs of Chilli the Dog!

Is this for real?

2008-05-01T14:19:00.006+08:00

I was just going through my chatbox and came across this...

My celebrity-look-alike said "Hi!"....and my mom being a "blur" (translated...not very bright) person didnt even see it until now.

Remember this...

http://chillithedog.blogspot.com/2007/06/celebrity-look-like.html

I can't believe she stopped by to say hi...but then again...it maybe someone "posing" as her. Can this happen?

Anyway...i still think it's kinda cool and interesting.

Have a great weekend!

Cool Video!!

2008-04-06T21:45:00.000+08:00

Hiya all! Mummy came across this cool video at work (read : not doing work but surfing the net...ssshhh!!!)

That dog is so clever. If it was me, I'll be chasing the ball around. Here's one of me doing just that:)

Hope you all enjoyed the video!
I hope you guys didn't get a headache trying to catch me.

ps...did anyone of you recognise the other dog in the video?

Tennis ball laucher anyone?

2008-03-22T22:32:00.007+08:00

Hiya all!

Was browsing through some vids on-line and came across this.

Mom...can we get one of tennis ball laucher too?

A Day at Changi Beach

2008-03-15T21:47:00.014+08:00

Hiya all! Sorry this post took so long. Mummy has trouble uploading the vids on youtube. I had a super fantastic time at the beach with Snowball at Changi beach. This is me in my travel bag. We went by a taxi... Upon arrival at Changi beach. Ships come really close to shore at this beach. Look !

Mummy threw a toy out to sea for me to retrieve, but as you can see from the video, she's not a very good thrower.

Snowball's Jie Jie help throws some for me too. She throws much better than Mummy. While I was enjoying myself having two persons throwing my toy for me, Snowball was happy being the beach babe. No need for getting wet and dirty...but her jie jie had other ideas. The reason for us going to the beach is for Snowball to get her swimming exercise. So her jie jie hit on a bright idea! Why not tie Snowball to a tug-boat and she'll be brought out to sea for a swim. Hmmmm...no tugboat in sight...so who do we call?? Chilli!!

Poor Snowball...she looked so tortured! After a few rounds of "torture", Snowball's jie jie changed tactic. She approched the guy with the canoe and asked him to give Snowball a ride out. That guy agreed and so my job as a tugboat ends.

After the swim, we had our baths and here we are...enjoying the sun and the wind. I got a massage thrown in too :) Now this has been the best day of my life so far in 2008. Looking forward to greater times ahead :)

My new LOVE and HATE relationship

2008-03-09T00:26:00.009+08:00

Hiya everydoggie! Thanks for all the kind comments regarding my family situation. Things are better now. We're taking things one day at a time. And since I've been such a good doggie (ehh..hrm :)) mummy is giving me a chance to blog!

And so I shall introduce you to my new love.....

Pig Tendons!!!

Mummy went shopping for Chinese New Year goodies (ya...I know...CNY is long over :P) and bought me these! They are delicious! She wanted to buy me deer tendons like to ones Jaffe and Kaylie has but the ones she saw are HUGE!!! (not that I mind!!) So she got me these instead. It's nice and chewy!!! Have any of you tried these??

And now for the HATE part. Mummy visited her aunty and came back with a NASTY "ang-pow" from my doggie cousin. FYI..."ang-pow" translated means red-packet..given during CNY for good luck. But this was no good-luck present for me. It's a...
.
Stoopid victoria collar!!!

Mummy's cousin bought it for her dog (who's also a JRT) but it was too small. So mummy's cousin decided to pass it to mummy and guess what?!? it fits!?!!

GRRR!!! I hate it!!! And now mummy uses it on me ALLL THE TIME!!!! (Mummy: Eh..not all the time. Only when you are caught chewing on your paws!) Oppsie! yup...I've got this horrid habit of chewing my paws and mummy hates this. So now with this stoopid collar, I can't chew my paw anymore....sigh. Does anyone out there got a plan of how I can get the collar off without mummy knowing? Can somebody come rescue me...pleezz...

Helloooo!!! (after such a looooong time)

2008-02-02T22:04:00.000+08:00

Hiya everydoggie! How have you guys and gals been? Mummy have been so busy these few months that she hasn't allowed me to blog AT ALL!! I only get to see my friend Snowball and that also is just once in two weeks or more. I can count the number of times we've met on one paw! Sigh...I'm such a sad sad dog.

But I have to be fair to mummy...lots of stuff have been happening in her life. She lost a good friend late last year...shook her up a bit cuz this friend was just a year older than her. And then there was a new baby niece to play with...Hmph...so jealous. But baby niece is really nice. She's not at all bothered by my loud barking! :) And just recently, her sister is now facing some really very difficult situation in life. Mummy has to be there for her so I wont be getting much chance to blog.

I really miss you guys so much. Mummy misses you all too. She loves reading your blogs as much as I do but time isnt really on our side now. We really hope you all understand and please do continue to drop by once in a while. I'll try to be a really really good dog at all times so that mummy will continue to let me blog.

Mummy has assured me that I'll not be abandoned even in these tough times. She will still take me out for long runs at the field and give me tummy rubs. These tummy rubs not only is loved by me but it calms her feelings down and she doesnt feel as sad.

Looking forward to brighter hope ahead!

Tag : 5 Questions

2007-09-03T22:56:00.000+08:00

Hiya everydoggie & GG

I'm back! My poop is back to normal already but I still have to finish my meds cuz they are antibiotics. Eww! How I hate them!

Anyway...horrid meds aside. I owe Casper a big big apology. He tagged me some time back to do the 5 questions abt me and I've not done it until now. So here are my answers to the questions.

1. Where is your favorite place to sleep?

I sleep in my playpen on a piece of soft cloth. If it's too hot I prefer the floor. Sometimes...I sleep a bit of both. See..

Mommy is not able to capture me fast asleep cuz each time she steps near even on tiptoes I can hear her and my eyes pop open...hee..hee...

2. Is there any specific trick your human makes you do to get treats?

Yup...

She makes me balance my treat on my nose...

And then she shots me...and makes me do a "high-ten"

She also makes me catch them in mid-air

But I do like to do tricks cuz I get yummy liver treats! :)

3. If you could spend an entire day doing anything at all what would you do and with whom?

I've got too many things which I would like to do...cant just do one thing the entire day...hee..heee...So I'll start the day by going swimming with Snowball...

Then I'll move on to going to the petcafe with Snowball...

Then I'll go to my private field and play fetch...

And end the day by just running up and down the corridor of my house
.

p(ee)s...the running in the corridor video is done in the morning cuz it would have been too dark to do a night shot :)

Whew...that was a whole lot of videos :)

4. What is your favorite toy?

It used to be the frisbee you see in the swimming video. But I've totally destroyed it. Now it's my blue ball. I like stuffies too! But they dont last very long around me..hiak...hiak...

5. If you could change one thing in your life what would it be?

This is more like mommy's answer...but I wish I could have been adopted much earlier in my life. By the time mommy adopted me I've been with two other families and I think part of my bad behavior with other dogs could have stemmed from the insecurities I felt. I dont like other dogs to come too near to me and sniff at me. Mummy's trying very hard to socialise me more but I guess it takes a lot of time.

Okie dokie...done! I think most doggies have been tagged with these questions but if any doggie wants to do this...please do and let me know. Then I can come visit :)

Update on Chilli

2007-09-01T22:48:00.000+08:00

Hiya all.

This morning when I woke up, I saw that Chilli has done it again. This time even her bed was soiled! I was too worried and did not have the heart to scold her. I cleared up the mess again and gave her a bit of her breakfast. Just dry kibbles and nothing else. After that I walked her and again her poopoo was watery.

I decided to bring her to a vet nearby instead of her usual vet. But when we got there I realised they only open at 12.30 and consultation was strictly on appointment basis!!! ARRGHH!!! (it was 10.30 at that time) I chose to take the risk and bring her to the usual vet....I was afraid she might soil herself again in the cab but I had no choice. Thankfully she was okay and there were no opps!

I'll let her take over from here..

Hiya everydoggie & GG

When I got to the vet, I had to wait for my turn cuz mummy did not make any appointment ahead. I saw a dog there that looked a lot like Herbie. He even had the same lying down like Herbie. Too bad mommy didnt have her camera with her so no pix.

Soon it was my turn, mummy told the vet about my diarrhea. The vet asked if I was refusing food...nope!. Vomitting...nope. It was just runny watery stinky poop! The doctor dissappear to the back room and appear with a rectal thermometer!!!! and a muzzle!!! (mommy had warned her about my snapping problem) No mommy...what's the doctor trying to do. Get her out of my butt! My butt belongs only to me!!! MOLEST!!! But my protest fell on deaf ears. Vet took my temperature and told mom I had a slight fever.

Then the vet dissapppear to the back room again. I told mom...here's our chance. Let's get out of here before the vet comes back. But mom was again hard of hearing. She ignored my pleas and would not even take the muzzle off! The vet appeared again and this time with not one but two!! sharp pointy things!!!! The vet told mommy to hold me tight and this time mommy heard her. What's wrong with this woman! First she dont hear my pleas and when the doctor speaks she hears!!

Anyway, she held me tight but when the doctor tried to poke me with the sharp pointy things! I fought back and kicked mommy real hard. (Mummy: yup...she gave me a blue-black on my chest...ouch!) The vet told mommy she'll get somebody else to hold me and took me to the back room. Another vet attendant took me and before I could protest further...I was jabbed not once but twice!! Ouch...double ouch! The vet took me back to mommy and the appointment was over.

Vet said I had gut infection and gave me two kind of antibiotics and something
else to harden up the stool. I also had to "fast" until evening. Just now mommy feed me my dinner and I was okay. I even went down for a walk and met up with Snowball! Snowball's jie jie gave me a new toy which I promptly destroyed in less than 5 minutes...hee..hee...the Chilli everyone knows is back!!

Thanks everyone for all the concern shown!

p(ee)s...about apples...grandma only feed me cut-up apples..no cores..no seed...and it's only a sixth of an apple. So the vet dont think apples was the cause. So I still can have apples but only after I finish my medication and my stool is back to normal :)

Chilli is sick sick

2007-09-01T01:52:00.000+08:00

Hi all....this is Chilli's mummy speaking. Chilli is not feeling so good. I came home from work and my parents reported to me that Chilli has the runs. They've cleared up the mess and when I took a look at Chilli, she seem fine...just a little embarrassed cuz she hates it when we talk about her "opps" situations.

But less than half an hour later, she did it again. She pooped very watery stinky stool. There were bits of apples which my mom feed her earlier in the day but i did not see anything else that was unusual. I cleared up the mess and gave her a clean bed too. After that I called Chilli over and gave her a good look over and a massage. She felt fine, her nose was still wet and she didnt feel feverish.

I gave her water to drink but she didnt seem interested in it, so I let her be. Then close to two hours later, she got up from her sleep and drank some water. She went back to sleep after that. As I was still quite worried about her, I decided to stay up a little later to monitor her situation and log on to check up some blogs. Then it happened again. She pooped stinky poop and there were still apple bits in it. She has been eating apples all this while and my parents only give her good ones so I dont know what's happening! I've cleared up the mess and now she's now asleep.

I'll have to bring her to the vet tomorrow. It's now 2am in Singapore. Please keep her in your thoughts and I'll keep you all updated tomorrow.

Thanks

Chilli's mom

Allowing Pets on MRT Stations/Trains

2007-08-28T13:24:00.001+08:00

Hiya all...just came from Billiejean's blog and saw this.

LTA Survey

It's a survey conducted by LTA (For our foreign friend : LTA is the Land Transport Authority).

Please take a moment to fill up the survey. It takes less than 1 minute. Let's keep our paws cross that the decision will be in our favour!

Hurry! The survey ends 31 August 2007.

Hide & Seek

2007-08-25T03:32:00.000+08:00

Hiya all,

During one of my swim outing, my toy decided to play hide and seek with me. See what I mean?

I looked and I looked...

And finally...

Gotcha! Did you guess what it was before the ball came out?

I hope all doggies and Girl Girl out there are having a great weekend!

More Kookies!!!

2007-08-18T17:38:00.000+08:00

Hiya all! Remember my last post about kookies? Well...mummy decided to make some again on her own.

She combined two ideas together and came up with this.

I'm gonna call them Hearty Bites. It was deliciooous!

Mummy was happy that even Snowball ate a bit of the kookies. It made it to the "Snowball Standard of Edible Food". Please dont get me wrong....I'm not saying that Snowball is a fussy eater. She does have very good standard when it comes to food. It must be of the bestest quality or she would not have anything to do with it. After all she is a Princess...hee...hee..

The recipie goes something like this.

1 cup oatmeal (blend till fine)
1.25 cups flour (plain)
1 lbs liver (chicken)
1 sprig of parsley
3 cloves of garlic (chopped)
1 egg

a) Mix the flour and oatmeal together in a large bowl. Set aside.
b) Stir fry the chicken liver with garlic and a little oil. Let cool.
c) Once liver is cool, throw into blender together with the parsley.
d) Crack in the egg and wheez till it becomes a pulpy mesh. (Mummy : It smells very bad here)
e) Pour out the pulpy mesh into the flour/oatmeal mixture and stir together til it holds. Dont worry if its a bit wet. Once the oatmeal soaks up the liquid it'll dry up.
f) Roll out on floured board or if you're lazy..like mummmy, just pat it flat with palm of hand and cut out using favourite shapes.

g) And now it's time to bake these beauties. Temperature used is 180c and bake it for about 20mins

h) Let cookies cool down. Heat up the oven again, once oven heated up, turn off the power, place cookies back into oven, close door and let it sit for abt 12 hours. This will allow the cookies to dry thoroughly.

I hope the recipe instruction is clear enough. It's ymmydelicious. I can go for more than 5 at one go. Slurp!!!

Mummy's note: Don't let our pups have too many at one go or it may result in runny stool...ewww!! :)

Pressies and Treats

2007-08-12T23:23:00.000+08:00

The other day at the Pawty I got a present from the Birthday Boys. See...

So nice of the birthday boys to give us pressies on their birthday. Thanks Huskee & Boy.

I was so excited...I kept smelling it..

Open it mummy...what's inside??

Inside there were kookies and this!

Look! I'm a unicorn...hiak...hiak...

I lurve the jelly. It tasted so good I finished in in two gulps. Sorry I couldnt eat any more lady like than this...hee..heee....

Thanks so much for the presents Birthday Boys. I hope you all had as much fun as I did at the Pawty. Sorry if I didnt stop long enough to say hi to everyone. There were so many of you and I got a little too shy.

The National Day Doggie Pawty!

2007-08-10T00:51:00.001+08:00

Hello everydoggie and GG

Happy National Day to all Singapawreans out there! It's been one year since my horrible experience. See my other entry.

Attacked!!

But today...today is the best experience for me. I got to pawty with many of my friends from DWB.

Here are some pix from the pawty. Sorry some of the photos are pretty blur. We were all too excited and was too fast for mummy.

Since it was National Day, Snowball shared that she should were her army jumpers. Isn't she a beauty?

Here's me checking out GirlGirl the CKC from BooBoo's family

And here are some of the other dogs I met:
There was Miss Reina.
Isn't she a cutie.

and then this is Luckie Girl
Sorry the pix is blurred.

I also got to meet BooBoo...the dog with the pearlie whites that Snowball was gushing about. He's the perfect gentleman

Some more cuties
Baby & Chiyo.

And of course not forgetting Precious.

Precious even shared a tip on the Britney Spears lookalike pose. Here's us practicing for the pose...

Did I pass?

Mummy ordered "Chicken Roulade" for me. It was yummylicious!

The best part of the pawty is we got to celebrate not one but two!! birthday boys. They are Huskee and Boy!

See the beatiful cake. It looks so delicious...can I have a piece please..

Yummy cake! Precious and me enjoying our cake!

Our humans tried to take a group photo of us but it proved to be challenging. See what I mean...

I hope some other pawtographers did better than mummy....

After dinner and cake it's time to head home. Just as we stepped out of the restaurant, we heard booming sounds coming out of nowhere. Fireworks someone shouted. We walked towards the sound and saw this...

What a great ending to a perfect outing.

Good nite!

Pikture Puzzle : The Results

2007-08-05T23:08:00.000+08:00

Hiya all!

Remember to Pikture Puzzle I posted a few weeks back. Well...the results are in. In total, there were only 5 pawticipates. Oh dear...I think I've posted a really really tough one. I think I must get some advice from Snowball regarding future contests.

Many thanks to the following who pawticipate : Precious, River, Lorenza, Toffee and Jake. But sadly...none of it was correct. Waaaahhhh!!! Sorry to disappoint you guys and gals. It was a really tough one. See what I mean

It's actually a "Light-up Dental Mirror" Mummy was using it one day and when I discovered the strange light, I got pretty excited over it. It's like a different kind of laser light game.

Another closer look :

Well...I hope you guys had fun guessing. I pawmise if I ever conduct a contest again, it must be something simpler and related to dogs.

My very own Scratch and Win!!

2007-08-03T12:04:00.001+08:00

Hi all! This is fun! Mummy loves to do the scratch and win contest! And now I have my very own.....

A sad day....

2007-07-29T23:22:00.000+08:00

Today it is a sad day for me. I learned that my friend

Oscar has gone over the Rainbow Bridge. He got very sick in a very short time and then he was gone.

I've enjoyed reading his blog so very much. He was such a sweet boy and a clever one too!

Goodbye Oscar...I hope you'll have lotsa fun over at Rainbow Bridge meeting up with FuFu and the rest of your doggie buddies.

Muddy Field Day

2007-07-21T20:48:00.001+08:00

In my earlier post, I complained about the rain and not being able to go swimming. Guess what...the rain stopped. Mummy decided to let me do something "naughty" She brought me to the field. A muddy field!!

Mummy even taught me a new game. She'll distract me by pretending to throw the ball in one direction and when I run towards that direction, she'll throw the ball in another directon and told me to "find it". It took me some time to find the ball but I'm gonna get better with more practise.

Look how muddy I got...hiak.hiak...

After the muddy field the inevitable has to happen..bath time!

Mummy had to shampoo me twice because I was so muddy :) I had so much fun the bath was worth it. Do you guys agree?

Hi Hi! I've been tagged by my new furrenz Jeannie & Jewel to show my widest grin. I'm normally a very shy shy dog :) I don't like to have my piktures taken. But here are some of my widest grins....

Here's one taken at Dogaholics...can anyone guess who is the pretty girl behind me?

And here's another one taken at one of the beaches in Singapore...can't remember if it's east coast or tanjong beach but I had a whale of a time there. I had fun trying to catch and bite the waves and swam some too!

And now it's time to tag Snowball, Ume, Oscar the Airedale, Precious and Asta Up Over. Come show the world your pearlie whites. And I now leave you with another quote...

Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. ~Mother Teresa

The Me Me Game

2007-07-02T00:06:00.000+08:00

Well...it's about time I did my MeMe. I've read so many MeMes and learned so much more about my furrenz out there. Plus it's started by a good furren...PENNY I have to support her by pawticipating. So here it goes...

Hiya all

Guess what are these?

Here's another look..

Can you guess? They are cookies. Super delicious home-made cookies. Made by Jie Jie Ann...Snowball's Jie Jie. It's even made in the shape of Maltese. It's flavour is Apple and Cinnamon. It was given to me sometime back and I already finished them. Wanted to post about them earlier but mom was too busy so didn't get a chance to do it.

Truth be told...Mommy was so inspired by these cookies, she has even gone on to make liver flavoured ones. She meet up with Jie Jie Ann and made liver flavour ones. These were super delicious too. Now Mommy is looking out for a bone-shaped cookie cutter and she's gonna make somemore cookies. I'm gonna turn into a Cookie Monster! Hiak..hiak...hiak...

Hiya all!

Let's take another look at Ham Ham Jr

It's almost time...look at how translucent he's become...

And the next morning...
More translucent than ever. Mummy decided to bring Ham Ham Jr to work. She felt that it's almost time and she wanted to capture the moment...

Mummy takes over from here :

While on the MRT train (subway) I kept a close eye on Ham Ham Jr. But nothing happen. So I decided to take a nap. Woke up as we entered the tunnel and I saw Ham Ham was bursting forth from the cocoon. Tried to take a video but lighting was bad in the tunnel and I cldnt get the camera to focus....Arghh!!! And of all things. The card read FULL!!! Sorry guys...no picture of the actual "birth"

Waiting until reach the interchange and switch the card. Now for more pix...

Walking toward park near my office...

Arrived at the park. Ham Ham Jr waiting for its release

First release...

Opening wings...

Flight checking...

Full back view

It took quite a long time to dry it's wings. Check out this video. Sorry for the shaking. I was nervous yet awestruck by the beauty.

And for the final released...

Good-bye Ham Ham Jr. May you have a beautiful week ahead!

Back to Chilli:

Isnt he/she a beauty. Did you see the color of the wings?? So wonderful!! I was sad cuz I didnt get to say goodbye yet happy that mummy took so many pix of Ham Ham Jr so that I can have many bootiful memories of him/her :)

Double Happiness

2007-06-03T23:19:00.000+08:00

Today's happenings can be summarize as

No...no...I'm not getting married. (FYI : This Chinese word is usually used during weddings)

It's because I was given soooooo much treats. First grandma feed me apples...my favourite not once but TWICE!!! Once in the morning and one more time in the evening.

And then mummy gave me ice-cream!! Two kinds!!! One was Frosty Paw (Recipe courtesy of The Dogs of Jackman Ave)

FROSTY PAWS!!!

ATTACK OF THE FROSTY PAWS!!

MESSY EATER

Jie Jie Ann and Mummy had ice-cream for themselves too but look at what a greedy girl i was...

Please Sir...can I have more??

And...guess what? Mummy gave in to me...

But as I was biting the ice-cream instead of licking it mummy had to put the ice-cream far far away from me. So now I had no choice but to stick my tongue out to to lick instead :)

Then when it came to the cone

What a mess!!

Say goodbye to the last bit...

It was the best tasting ice-cream I had. What more it was made of soy milk and it's low in sugar and fat.

Even Snowball enjoyed this ice-cream

Now this is what I call a terrierific day!! I hope I'll get more of these kinda days. Don't you?

Lost & Found

2007-06-02T21:20:00.000+08:00

A few mornings back I work up and discovered this...
and this

Ham Ham Jr as my pet is known as went missing again! He got cater-napped!! Mommy immediately call my Aunty Jen and found out she was the "culprit" :)

She took Ham Ham Jr for Show & Tell. She was doing a presentation for a group of Secondary (Junior High) students and she wanted to use Ham Ham Jr to bring out a point. And he was a hit. I'm so proud of him. Just a few days old and already a hit. Hee...Hee...

He's now back home safely. He's got a new home. The container is now transparent so it's easier for me to take a pix of him. He's still a cacoon.

Shhh...Ham Ham Jr needs his sleep...

Come back soon for more updates

Prizes...from a long time back

Remember the time when I say I'll post the pix of my prize...I didn't forget...mummy did..hee...hee... The event is linked here : http://chillithedog.blogspot.com/2005/12/hi-hi.html

So here it is...and the third prize goes to...Chilli (Mom: Chilli the Silly Billy...hiak hiak) I won a big hamper for just doing what I like to do...catching balls!

Look! It's even bigger than me :) In it were some toys, snacks and a big bag of kibbles.

Mummy says the kibbles she will give away to the pound...it's good kibbles juz that it's not the brand I alwiz eat. That way I can do my part for charity too :). The best part I like about the prize is the soft toy! See the penguin in the front of the hamper :) It makes all kinda of funny noise when shaken and I go crazy just playing with it.

Gotta go...muz brush up on my ball catching skills :0)

Mistaken for a pig!?!?!

2007-05-12T23:54:00.000+08:00

Once when granddad was walking me...a man came up from behind him and remarked "Is this a pig or a dog?"

I'm like "WHAT!!!! I'm no pig!!!" How dare he call me a pig...which part of me looks like one? So angry!!! That man must have never seen a pig in his entire life!

When granddad got home...he told mommy this and mommy juz laughed it off. So hurting! But mommy quickly apologize and agreed with me that no part and I repeat no part of me looks like one!

Haiyoh...humans! what will they think of next

Ah...Finally I'm Back

2007-05-12T17:40:00.000+08:00

PLC event

2005-12-19T20:17:00.000+08:00

Hi Hi...I'm back!!

Mummy did bring me out to the PLC event. She came back from work...went to check out the place first. Saw that there was a "ball-catching" competition at 2pm. It was already 1.45pm at that time.

She rushed home, got me ready and went back to EastPoint. When we got there, the competition has already started. But mummy tried her luck and found out that I could participate!!

YEAH!! but...she didn't bring any ball for me to catch. So...she borrowed a ball from someone and manage to get me in.

I passed the first round without a hitch..ha..ha...I'm good at this.

Second round...mummy had to stand further..and throw the ball. I got a little too excited and bounced forward slightly and caught the ball. Opps!!. But when the MC asked the crowd if I passed the test...everyone says YES!!! Thank you audience..love you lots.

And now the crucial bit...only three of us left. A cross-breed, a schnauzer and me! Out of 5 throws, we are to compete who can catch the most. And I caught none!! so paiseh! Dupont..the cross-breed caught all 5 throws!! I was too excited for Dupont so I didn't see how many did Whisky the schnauzer catch..but the final score was...

First prize...DUPONT!! Second prize...WHISKY and Third prize (drumroll pleaze)...CHILLI..tat's me!!

Mummy doesn't have the camera now. Will post pix soon.

Power Outing!!

2005-12-16T23:44:00.000+08:00

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Tomorrow got "power" outing. Got two different events mummy wants to bring me to.

The PLC event at Eastpoint. And a Mini Pet fair at Tampines. So exciting!!

I must behave myself and make sure I don't make mummy mad. Then she surely will bring me out. And must also keep my paws crossed. Just now watching the news...weather forecast says rain!!. Please God...don't let it rain. Mebbe just rain at night :)

I leave you now with my fav sleeping position....

nite....

Chilli says....

2005-12-16T00:18:00.000+08:00

Now it's my turn!

Yup...it's been more than 4 years since I came to live with the Teh family. They love me to bits especially Jean's mummy. She spoilts me lots.

I just need to give a little whine and she'll ask "Chilli...wat you want?" Then I'll either look in the direction of the kitchen...and she'll give me apples! MMMmmm!!! my favourite. Or else I'll look in the direction of the storeroom..where all my toys are kept and she'll fetch me my bone-bone (a rope bone) or my ball-ball. Ha..ha...I'm the best Slave Driver in the WORLD!!! Muah..ha..ha..

I love playing! If my mummy doesn't bring my toy out when we go to the park, I'll go find myself a toy...be it an empty plastic bottle or tin can, I'll turn it into a toy.

Mummy usually brings me out during the weekends, when she doesn't need to work. I'll get very excited and will practically drag her to the open field. I'm a very "kuai" (obedient) dog. So once in the open field, I can go off-leash cuz I "come" when mummy calls me. I can go on and play fetch for ages. But of course mummy wouldn't let me. She alwiz stops when she sees me panting hard. I wonder why....

On other days, it's just be a short walk and then back home to do "shuttle-run" up and down the corridor. My fav activity too! I'll just carry my stick and run up and down the corridor. Kinda like a craze dog...but I like the feel of the wind in my face and my ears will flap up and down. Kawaiii rite??

More about Chilli

2005-12-16T00:11:00.000+08:00

Chilli oso fondly known as Chiili Dog...came into my life when she was abt 1+. I got her as a present for passing my exams. Been bugging my mom to allow us to have a dog but she always says no. Cuz that time still studying so no time to look after a dog. Singapore oso so small...no garden, difficult to keep a dog. Not like back in Malaysia, got garden for dog to run about.

Anyway...she finally gave in and say if I pass my exams I can have a dog. About a week before results were out, I visited a friend and saw Chilli. She was in "foster-care". It belonged to my friend's nephew but because of some family problems they couldn't keep the dog. My friend and the family themselve have a dog but Chilli didn't get along with her. So when I commented I liked Chilli...they say I could have her! Well...to cut the whole long story short, I passed my exams and Chilli came to live with us. Here's the first picture taken at our place

She looks happy doesn't she?

She's a super pampered dog...loves to be "sayang" all the time. Loves to play with balls. Can play fetch really well. And the neatest trick is to "Stay" for food.

And now about Chilli

2005-12-15T19:53:00.000+08:00

Chilli is my beloved pet dog. I can consider her my very first pet dog. We used to have dogs back home in Malaysia, but those were either strays or dogs that were kept by my parents. She's my very own! Although she's loved by everyone in the family. :)

She's a JRT...with pricked ears. Her full name....Chilli Apple Teh Niau Niau. Apple...cause she loves them. and Niau niau...cause she's a super peeing machine. (Chilli..."Mom....why you go annouce to whole world about my embarrasing fact!!!....hmmph!!!)

Here's her pix

This was taken after a swim at East Coast Park. More abt her and me later. Gotta go walk her soon.

Me...a Blogger??

2005-12-15T19:47:00.000+08:00

Ha...Ha...I finally jumped on the bandwagon and got meself a blog.

I dunno much abt blogging but after reading a few blogs and seeing even doggies have their own, I decided to try one myself!

The most is if I get bored with it, I can easily close it down :)
