So you are wiping your dog after a walk or just petting your dog while watching TV, your hand brushes across your pup’s fur and then you feel it. A LUMP on the Dog.
Donna grew her first lump last year. The first time I felt it was on 10th Jan 2017. I remember the date exactly because I took pictures and sent it to friends.
“What is this?? Does it look like a tick to you?” I texted.
Happy Chinese New Year of the Dog!! A tad late, but I still wanted to share with you how these 8 dog accounts on Instagram are celebrating Chinese New Year this year of the dog.
All photos used in this blog post are copyright to their corresponding Instagram accounts respectively. Please do not repost without consent from the original owners of the photos. Thanks!
Each of the featured dog accounts is unique in its own way and so it was interesting putting this together! It wasn’t on purpose, but I’m also glad that I ended up with half of the accounts featuring adopted dogs. #adoptdontabandon :P
So let’s get started!
Ordering cakes for Donna has become a fun thing for me. I’m at the age where there hasn’t been a cake for my own birthday for a number of years. So I guess I am enjoying the cakes vicariously through Donna, without incurring extra calories for myself. Hahaha.
This is why I tend to order “trendy” cakes inspired by real human cakes. Typically what happens is, I browse human cakes. Something catches my eye that I like. I send it to the dog bakery to see if they think it is doable.
We adopted Donna 12 January 2013, so I usually try to give her a little celebration around that day. This year we decided to send her to dog daycare so she can have a day of fun with her friends.
This post records the second part of her Gotcha day at dog daycare in the afternoon. You can read about her a walk with her daycare friends at Pasir Ris Park in the morning here.
Rolling around is one of Donna’s attention-seeking behaviour when she wants to play.
Donna wants to play but everyone is tired and wanting to rest in the indoor area.
Pasir Ris Park is a park that we’ve been to only about a handful of times. It actually didn’t leave an impression on me, but Mr. P tells me we visited on weekends when it was very busy. AND I was NOT impressed by the crowd.
I have to say now…
There’s quite a few dog-friendly cafes in Tiong Bahru. I have been exploring the parks with Donna somewhat near the Tiong Bahru area recently. So we’ve discovered more dog-friendly eating places in that area thanks to friends on Instagram! (Find me @weliveinaflat!)
Guess which dog-friendly cafe in Tiong Bahru I am at!!
In this post, I’m featuring the two that I visited recently. But I will include more suggestions I’ve got from friends so you actually will have more options to consider than just two. ;)
I had fun shopping for dog at Don Quijote when I was in Japan. Don Quijote opened it’s first outlet in Singapore this week called Don Don Donki. Come with me to Orchard Central to see what they have brought in for pets!
SPONSORED This review includes a giveaway for 1-week’s worth of cooked food from The Grateful Dog, so be sure to scroll down to the end to find it and enter!
Donna gets two meals a day. Dry food for breakfast and cooked food that is meat combined with a commercial pre-mix for dinner.
We feed dry food or kibble especially if we are rushing in the morning. But dry food is also highly processed, and like any other person who loves their dog, I still want Donna to be able to enjoy quality, nutritious food.
Our food rating: 🍗🍗🍗
We happened to be in Punggol and decided to check out the dinner scene at the Punggol Tebing Lane Container Park. There are a reported 7 container cafes there. But at the time of visit – around 5.30pm on Sunday – some were not ready for business yet.
We decided to try out Big Fish Small Fish which is located in the middle of the row of container cafes.
