Mutts and Me Short Stories

Emo Momo finally stepped out of her hermit shell :)

 

One year ago, she was an untouchable dog, because she tried snapping at anyone who attempts to pat or touch her. Tested and proven one.

She will always lie in one corner and give this face:

 

lifeless, sian, stoned, emo, depressed whatever you call it

 

She's always the forgotten one, too quiet until we forget her existence in the shelter...

And also because we don't really dare to get near her.. The only person than who can leash and walk her was her rescuer, and I wonder how did she managed to put on the collar for this scary dog..

I think its also because of her skin colour that makes her look less adorable la.. This one cant be helped.

 

Well, after almost one full year at the shelter with her, with new and old vollies coming in and out, Momo learnt to accept our presence around her.. Slowly, she learnt to come to us for food, sniffing us and allowing us to pat on her head AT TIMES..

 

She took a greater change in the past few weeks by greeting us and running around when we are feeding treats, smiling and even standing up to beg for food! Power of food motivation uh.

 

On this particular session, we decided to bring her out to pet movers with the rest.

 

Vivien took up the role !! WHOO HOOO !! 

 

 

Ok a random morning photos at the shelter~

*See momo behind*

 

 

 

 

At the dog park:

 

Showing her happy face :)

 

See she can even kiss Viv now ~

 

 

 

Her head can even Kiap in between us ~.~

Eh but again hor, don't anyhow try it on your own, you've gotta see her mood first, if she is in pain or what and u try to hug or kiss her, you die not my problem.

 

 

 We enclosed her in the smaller compound because we are not sure if she could get along with the other dogs outside.. Safer for her..

 

LOL.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Me and my bfs

And on another day, I had my first solo walk with Tui as I had to leave earlier than the rest..

 

Brought him to HDB for our date :)

 

Boyfriend acting tough uh..

"Don't mess with my girl"

 

 

The next moment, his..... ahem...is out

 

 

Put him on mikki leash and he follows me wherever I go, the feeling was awesome:D

 

chilling at the fitness corner for some water break and treats

 

Conveniently resting his paws on my wugui shoes

And this boy just lie there obediently

 

 

Life's good with him beside me ^^

 Brought him for a few rounds of run before I ended my short date with him. Quality time spent :)

2 of the Zeus Comm dogs - Batman and Robin joined us for the packwalk to punggol !

 

I took Robin and Minghui took Batman..

Two sweet young chaps

My hand almost got torn off just by walking from the kennel to the carpark as Robin was flipping and running and turning around, up and down @.@ which was what Minghui had pre-warned me about LOL.

 

But once we stepped out of the shelter, he was rather easy to handle..

Guess its the stress coming from both sides of the other kennel dogs that makes them so cranky..

 

This one is Robin..

 

This is Batman

 

Robin is super sticky to Minghui, tsk like a mother

 

Momo came out too! And she was enjoying herself by rolling on the floor. Caught us by surprise :)

 

A happy Momo

 

Fatty lying my me until falling asleep

 

 

Marvin took up the challenge to bath Momo, sadly no pictures to zuo ji nian. But well, good job Marvin!

2nd March 2013

 

I forgot where we went for packwalk already..

Only remembered us going to find Yenyen at the adoption drive someone near Katong.

 

Little Price Cameron with Yenyen.

Shes totally sweet with Cam, gave camcam many slurps of kisses when she sees him..

 

 

One of the interested viewers..

Yenyen stayed there for a good 2-3 hours and was dying to go out..

 

Hopefully someone will look pass her weight, see her beauty and adopt her..

Shes really generally nice and easy to take care, doesn't really bark, don't really move around, u just need to give her a corner or some where for her to stare into space can liao..

 

 

Certified Part time Nanny, you can reach me at muttsandme@gmail.com should you need someone to look after your baby, or dog ;)

 

Had our super late lunch at a near by foodstall, look at our feast!

 

 

 

After that it rained super heavily and while waiting at the bus stop, a car sped past and got me all drenched from head to toe. Thanks a lot sia!

 

Ok.. enough for today...

 

My hands very suan from all the typing liao.

4 Humans 8 Dogs

Last Sunday...

Woke up seeing Viv's whatsapp saying: "The rain finally stopped." It had been raining for more than 12 hours consecutively.

I look out of the window while still nua-ing on my bed and thought to myself: "Heng ah, now I can go to shelter in peace *Insert happy face* "

My new pack walk tee :)

VA's attendance recently was quite bad...

Most of us are preoccupied with our personal commitments at this moment. Maybe its because its the start of the year and that CNY is nearing.

Time to get back on track people!! I miss u guys!!

This is one of the smallest pack walk we had for a long long time.

Minghui, Weijie, Vivien and Tricia went to Mutts and Mitten event to bring the dogs to the beach. Viv finally get to walk her favourite Bear Bear :)

So only got me, Yonglin, Chang Ming and Joei left to walk the ericsson's dogs..

I feel very sad in the morning. Because with only 4 humans, we have about 10-11 dogs waiting for us to bring them out. Taking into consideration that Saturday's packwalk was cancelled due to the heavy rain, if they didnt get to go out this time, they will have to wait for another week :(

We've got not enough hands and equipments ahhh!!!The four of us took quite awhile to settle the dogs because they keep running out of the kennel.. Jack, puopi and Jingle... tsk. surprising right, is these 3 instead of the 2 terrorists. Because both terrorists kena locked up hahhahaa. Even fat jack gian to go out, he ran to the gate and happily parked himself over there.

It was very the chaotic ahhh.. End up we tried to bring as many of them out as possible, one person to two dogs, and because the 2 terrorists is too difficult to handle at one go, we have no choice but to leave them behind. I swear my heart sank to the ground when I hear Nicole whine, and Joy gave us that sibeh sian face........

And so we went ahead with our small packwalk, was rather stress because some of the dogs that we bring out are from different pack, need to do co-ordination one leh. For me its easy because Im taking the fat siblings, confirm no problem.

Joei took Puopi and Jingle, luckily both of the same size, but I very scared Joei will fly if the both of them run at the same time :X

Yonglin had a weird combi also - Sasha and Jack. Really tak match. But because Jack dont have 狗缘 (popular among humans but unpopular among dogs), he had no choice but to partner whoever that can accept him.

Chang Ming/Meng one lagi worst - Peanut and baby, pulled him like siao. 

Our initial plan was to meet the others (Minghui they all) at the beach, but it seems quite far and risky to bring the dogs to beach as we had to pass by the slope with alot of heavy vehicles and we might not be able to handle the dogs then, so we switch to HDB :)

Both fat siblings were quite well behaved except for the part when we were walking out of the main road, they just refused to walk on the grass leh! After awhile my cute bf was walking nicely beside me ;D

I was super worried about the rest if they could cope or not. The bangalas looked at us like some chinggay parade when we passed by..

Over at the HDB, we at the fitness corner instead of the usual shelter. 

My partners of the day

 Tui looks like a pet dog right!!

 

Do-re-mi~ (lol! picture only...!! they just nice sit in the position)

Peanut, so long alr u still stress ah!?

 

Baby~~ Looking tired..

Time for some workouts and obstacle training!!  We ran around and jumped over the "obstacles", my fat team was great!!! 肥肥但很有弹性，体力超强的 ～。～

Fat jack as usual 跳不过.. Jingle is slowly opening up ^^

 & Sasha hates it when fat jack's mouth is above/near her head (guess why??)

We took turns to run round the neighbourhood before it started drizzling..

Orh lulu eh~

The rubber/lead "lak sek", we ended upwith blue butts and stains all over..

 

DOooooo our pledge tgt

A few residents stopped by and look at us, some even came forward to pat our dogs :)

While walking back, we saw Vivien and Tricia at the opposite direction of the route, and to my surprise, they were walking Nicole and Joy!! 

Joei was still thinking of bringing them out for a short walk after the pack walk.

LOVE RIGHTTTTTTTT!!! This is VA! My morning sadness all gone liao, at least no one getys left behind :) Thank u Viv & Tricia for the extra effort <3
