A Walk in the Park...

The Maid took me for a walk in the park yesterday but we did not get to meet any other doggies possibly because it was in the afternoon of a workday and most of their parents are at work..

'Marking' my favourite lamp-post

Aww.. quit taking photos, will ya.. $^#$%

Urmm.. can you carry me up those stairs? I am tired..

I need to rest while... *pant*


Who's calling me? Is that you Baby??

Hot Spots (continued...)

Mum said to say THANK YOU to all my friends for sharing with us their remedy for hot spots.. If they don't clear up soon (or if I can't lick them away), she'll start trying out all of them one by one *faint*... Here's what we gathered:-

1) 24 hour air conditioning to keep me nice and cool - from Fu Fu

2) Eliminate all wheat products from my diet - from Sunshade

3) Diluted pure apple cider vinegar - from Scrappy

4) Lidocaine spray - from Butchy and Snickers

5) Twice a day, wipe with wet tissue (or preferred cleanser), pat dry, apply antibacterial cream, pat off excess, apply calamine lotion, let it dry/pat off excess (powder optional) - from Chiyo

I will keep everyone posted on my progress.. I hope the dang spots go away soon cos I am getting sick and tired of knocking into furniture with the e-collar..

Oh and today is a very important day.. it is the birthday of my very good HamsTerrier friend Fu Fu:

* Fu Fu, here's a personalised birthday greeting from one of

my besotted sisters who is so in love with you*

- Oh and she also said to add this: "Pick me, pick me" (the saga continues)

Somebody Puh-leeeese tell my Mum that I am NOT Amused?

Mum insisted on posting this real un-glam pic of me with the E-collar.. I don't understand why she wants to embarrass me like this.. (Huskee's mum: Hopefully this will make you stop licking at your hot spots so that they get a chance to heal?!!)

Well, in my own defense, I was only trying to be helpful here mum... Who knows one day I'll be able to lick those dreadful hotspots AWAY?? Sigh... according to the vet, dogs with long and thick coats who live in warm and himid places are more susceptible to hot spots (Bingo!! I have met all those criterias!!)

Here's the offending pic. (even the new toy couldn't take me out of my misery)..

Mum was out the other day and saw a card with my friend, Joe Stains! (Hey Joey, I didn't know you model too!! Can I have your paw-tograph?)

I have a new TOY!!

I finally got my very first Cuz toy from The Maid!! (and like all E.V.I.L hoomans, I was made to 'sit' and 'stay' while she snapped some photos for this entry...)

Can't believe I only got my FIRST Cuz toy after so long.. Oh and this Cuz can't sqeak.. it can only make a weird farting noise.. (no, it wasn't me...).

Match(es) made in Heaven??

Lately the household hasn't been very peaceful because my 2 hamster sisters have been bickering non-stop. The reason for the feud?? Well, they both have seen this picture of my friend Fu Fu and have fallen head over paws in love with him and both want to go on a date with him in FuFuMOBILE.

Presenting the 2 'lovelies' (drumroll please):

(I did tell them to practice some self-restraint but when they knew that Fu Fu could be reading this post, there was no holding them back.. *helpless*)

Fu Fu is so lucky to have 2 gals fighting for his affection, but well, guess he can't help it cos he is just too cute! ** Fu Fu, do me a favour and let me know when you make your choice so that I can have some peace when they stop their bickering.

I can't believe the weekend is here again.. although there isn't much for me to look forward to cos I can't go and stay with my mum and dad like I did last week. Ma's going to spend the weekend in Hong Kong to attend a friend's wedding. Hope she get me some nice toys!!

(Oh and did I tell you guys that I have got hotspots on my front paws?? It's been there for a while and I am under the much dreaded 'E-collar treat aka Satellite dish' treatment'. All the creams don't seem to be helping much so I keep trying to lick them away but ended up getting a big scolding from The Maid.. sheeshh.. Life's tough).

Someone needs braces...

Gee.. thanks mum, for showing the world my less than perfect set of teeth..

Milo 'The Mechanic'

With a heavy heart, I bid a final farewell to Milo 'The Mechanic'. To honour Milo's 11 years on this plane, I'd like to dedicate this post to him and share his life with my friends.

Milo was dad's other dog but he lived in Johor, Malaysia with the rest of dad's family. He is the son of dad's previous dogs, Shorty (yes.. so named because he was short) and May (a Maltese cross something that no one knows what exactly) - both deceased.. Shorty was put to sleep a few years back as he was very old and had many ailments that was causing him a lot of pain and discomfort. May was knocked down by a car many years ago.

Dad said that Milo was a very good guard dog that protected the premises... he was very good at chasing off stray cats and dogs that sometimes walk into 'his' premises and was known to have killed snakes and attacked big iguanas when he was in his prime. Basically Milo was courageous and quite fearless (except for thunder!!).

He was nicknamed 'The Mechanic' because he loved to spend his time watching the world go by from the comfort of his favourite spot - i.e. under the car and always ended up having dark stains on his fur.

No one knows the cause of his death and it took everyone by surprise.. Milo was found lifeless on Wednesday morning.. he passed away in his sleep.

I hope Milo is now running across acres of green fields with his parents, Shorty and May, his brother Horlicks, his girlfriend who passed away giving birth prematurely to a litter of 10 pups (the hoomans don't think the pups belonged to him as they did not look like him a single bit) and his friend Husky (a rottweiler), with which he had a love-hate relationship (mum claims that the pups looked more like rotties).

Rest in peace my friend...

Traitors are bacccck...

Yes, they came back last night full of wonderful stories of the cruise.. (it's like rubbing salt on the wound).. Anyway I have not forgiven them for going away AGAIN without me. I don't understand why dogs are not allowed on cruises, especially since we are "Man's best friend" and all... why don't "man" allow their "best friends" to go on board a cruise with them?? Personally I don't think this is the way to treat a friend.. *pouts*..

The Maid bought me a new set of water and food bowl cos the old set was getting a little old.. Do you notice something though?? It is RED!! Red is for girls!! I am a boy... arrrghhhh.... But the good thing is that the new food bowl is slightly bigger than my old one.. I hope this is an indication that I will be getting a bigger food portion!

My ma and pa are going away for a holiday this weekend without me again! It's getting hard to believe they are going away so soon since they already went for a holiday last Nov. Ma said that this time they won't be taking a plane.. they are going on a cruise.

This is the crusie ship that they will be on..

Hmmm.. I really wonder how pa will 'survive' this trip because he is known to have a pretty serious problem with motion sickness (even in cars if he is not the driver)!! *snigger*..

So as they go off happily sailing into the sunset, I am stuck at home with grandpapa, grandmama and The Maid for the weekend with nothing to do. Maybe I'll go visit Fu Fu...

Oh, and I saw this picture on ma's laptop the other day. It was taken around the Christmas period. She kept saying to me "See, it's so easy to take a nice picture with Scuba cos he looks AT the camera.. why do you always look AWAY??!!.. blah.. blah.. yak...yak.." - I blocked out the rest of her nagging..

Can you spot me??!

Ma is an ardent fan of Care Bears (I can't believe how lame that is since she is no longer a child) and this is part of her 'collection' through the years. She acquired them through various sources, ebay, business trips to the US, specialty toy shops in Singapore, as gifts from friends overseas (the unique/ limited edition ones are very rare in Singapore and her friends from Australia sometimes sends them over to her)... I believe she has over 50 of them (I never really had the time to count since I'm always so busy, you know) in various sizes ranging from 3 inches to 20 inches, but her favourite is still the small 7 inch ones.. This is also mainly due to space constraints.. hiak hiak..

Anyway The Maid took all of them out for a bath last week and I just couldn't resist 'helping' out... So far I have yet to 'love' any of them to 'death' (I think I'd be in hot soup if I did!!).

Post- Christmas Blues...


Christmas day came and went before I knew it... Why can't we have Christmas once a month?? Imagine that... *bliss*... Well, I spent the better half of the morning ripping open my pressies and ma was so jealous of me cos I have got more pressies than her!! Thanks to all my friends...

This lovely jacket is from Fu Fu and his mum..
(Huskee's ma: I love this jacket and I only wish it came in hooman size!!)

My gift all the way from Canada!!

This is from my dear friend Jay and his mum. I love the red and blue cos it brightens up my otherwise 'monochrome' coloured coat!

This turtle is from my dear Auntie Sam

This ltttle squeaky doggy is from either Jack or Joey... I received a present from each of them but the other was little raw hide boot and I chewed it up before ma could take a picture of it.. Ooops...

This huge squeaky is from Godma

and last but not least, these are from ma and pa..

Other than these, I have also received a hand-painted bowl with my picture on it from Herbie, a yellow squeaky teddy bear from Rafv, a squeaky doughnut from Bingo... and many, many more! Ma said she'd not have to buy me any toys for a long time!!

Another Pressie for ME!!

Ma brought back another present when she came back from work last night.. it is from Herbie!!

Is it what I think it is??? Thanks Herbie and Auntie Sharon!

Checking out some of my presents... I CAN"T WAIT TO OPEN THEM!!

Oh, and ma made some of these yesterday for my friends (Jay, Scuba & Co., Uncle Derick's 3 furkids - Max, Spanky and Duchess, etc).. I think it's supposed to be GingerBread Meat Patties (not sure if anyone's heard of it before..). , there's a choice of a 'flavours' - Pork and Garden Greens or Beef, Bacon and Rice. After ma packed them into their respective containers, she realised that she didn't make enough and guess who had to go without??! Hmmph!!! I am not happy... seriously how can this happen?? What will I eat?? I think I am going over to Godma/ Scuba's place... *#$%^&#@!

Santa Paws??

Only one shot ok, Ma?

Ok ok, fine, just one more...

Hey, that's enough Ma.. you've got 2 nice shots already..

I am not looking at you anymore...Hmmmph!!

Tagged (Episode 3)


This is the 3rd time I have been tagged... When I found out that I have been tagged by Comet and Blu, I almost fell off my chair.. but after reading the instructions, it didn't seem so bad... it actually sounded quite fun!!

The Rules: The player of this game starts with "3 things he/ she would love to get for Christmas" and also has to list "3 things he/ she definitely does not want to get for Christmas". Then he/she tags 5 friends and list their names. The ones who get tagged need to write on their blogs about their Christmas wishes, as well as state this rule clearly, then tag 5 more victims. And the one who tags need to leave a comment that says "you've been Christmas tagged!" in their comments and tell them to read your blog.


Things I'd live to get for Christmas:
1) Lifetime supply of bellyrub vouchers (redeemable from the hoomans anyday, anytime... with absolutely no fine prints on the 'terms and conditions' (cos there are none!)
2) TOYS! The louder the squeak, the better!!
3) A girlfriend.. (this wish was my birthday wish, but since it hasn't been fulfilled, I will try it again for Christmas).. I am jealous of T-Man and Chelsea, Boo and Chiyo, y'know..
4) A postman who'll leave behind a treat or two for me.. and of cos who delivers my pressies and cards to my friends BEFORE Christmas!!!

Things I definietly wouldn't want to get for Christmas:
1) Hair cut / Session at the groomers - Need I say more?
2) Being alone at home...
3) Ticks (ewwww...)

My 5 victims are:
Jay, Murphey, Baily, Fee and T-Man!

Have fun!!

Are they really all MINE??


I can't wait for Christmas to come so that I can rip open all my presents!!

This is from Fu Fu, Bibi and Auntie Eil

I received Sunshade's card and her pressie!!
(Huskee's Ma:- I think it'd be more appropriate if it said 'Small Dog with Big Attitude Problem'')

From my dearest Auntie Sam

From my Big Little Brother Scuba and his feline siblings, Pepper and Ginger

From Jack and Joey!!

This is from Rafv and his pa and ma.. Thank you Uncle Cas and Auntie R!!

These are some of the cards that I received from all my friends from around the world (I received about a dozen more after this pic was taken).. I really look forward to the postman's delivery every day and I have decided that the 'Postman is Friend, Not Foe' and will not bark at him anymore (well, not this month anyway!!).. I got to be nice so that I will be on Santa Paws' 'Nice Pooch' list..

Countdown to Christmas (Phase II)

Countdown to Christmas (Phase I) was the making of the Christmas cards for the card exchange.. Now that it's been completed, ma and I have started Phase II, aka shopping for presents!! Actually ma had already started with shopping for some of the gifts sometime last month and this weekend was to complete the 'unfinished' business...

We went round looking for gifts for my pals and and when that was done, we shopped for wrappers, decorative thingys, padded envelopes (for those that needs to be mailed), etc... All in all, it was a fun but tiring day. (I saw ma sneaking something into the shopping basket which she obviously didn't want me to see.. I think I have more pressies!! Hee...) When we have gotten all the pressies that we need and ma had to get down to wrapping them.. Boy was there loads to wrap!! (Ma was making so much noise 'cos she ended up with many paper cuts...Typical of her to be so clumsy!!)

Sneak preview of the pressies

(this is only 50% of them.. the rest have not yet been wrapped)..

Dog-tired after all the activities...

The next 'nghtmare' will be going to the post office to weigh and get the correct postage stamps for the packages... With Christmas just 2 weeks away, many people are rushing to send off their presents.. Oh my...

Finally got to see some of the photos that ma and pa took when they were in Hong Kong last week.. I discovered evidence of them having an 'affair' behind my back with not one, but two dogs!! Their names are Goofy and Pluto and they look strangely familiar to me though I cannot remember where I have seen them before... Here's the evidence:

Ma even had the nerve to bring back a T-shirt which had Pluto on it!! What's the world coming to? I feel that my position within the household is being threatened...

I think I may need to start planning for my future soon... and I need to know more about this 'invader' in order to win back my ma and pa. The more I searched, the more worried I got.. apparently Pluto has got a lot of friends. However, it is a weird mixture with mice (Mickey and Minnie), ducks (Donald and Daisy), squirrels (Chip and Dale), a deer called Bambi and yes, and even an elephant called Dumbo (from the name, I don't think this one will be of any threat!!)

Fortunately I think I should be able to cope with the enemy since I also have loads of friends that I made on DWB and I am sure I can count on them!!

My Christmas Card is Completed!!


Yayyy... my ma finally completed my Christmas cards for the card exchange last night .. Actually many people played a part in the making of the card and I'd like to give credit to (ahem...) here it goes (in no particular order):

1) Ma who contributed the most in terms of time, effort and money (I don't have any money after getting Christmas gifts for my friends...*innocent look*). She spent many long hours at her desk cutting, pasting, stamping and colouring (and giving me the 'evil eye'... the deadline was very tight cos she wanted to ensure that all the cards can be sent out by this week and it was really hectic as she left on a business trip to China right after the cards were competed.

2) Pa who co-designed the photo that was used and then played the part of pasting 50% of whatever that needed to be glued together (yes I offered to do that but Ma said 'NO Huskee!!'.. She said it was due to hygiene reasons...)

3) Pa's friend, Uncle Julian, who was the 'Master Designer' who 'photo-shopped' the photo...

4) Auntie Sharon and Godma for getting the stamps!!

5) The Maid, who has been been assigned the all important task of pasting the correct stamps on each card and then bringing it to the post box!

Whew... mission accomplished... I can now put my paws up and relax! Nowadays I can't wait to open the mailbox everyday cos there is always something for me!

Now it's time for my nap... Zzzzz....
