Mutts & Me - Plus the adventures of Toy & Tui!: punggol

This gonna be a short and random post, got inspired after I change my blog banner hehe.

I always try to find new places to explore with the dogs at every opportunity (in other words, when I have free transport :P), so by far here are the places we've visited, you can spend a weekend and bring your furkids there too!

1) The place we frequent most in the past 2 years:
Lorong Harlus Nature Reserve

Why this place? Because it's the nearest, nicest and most walkable place around Pasir Ris Farmway.
It is quite a long drive from the main road

The road that leads to Harlus

We used to have packwalk there and just chill and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

There are 2 resting place for you to sit and rest while taking a break, so don't worry.

We go there like every other week, but it is always nice to come here.

Take a break from the city life and enjoy the serenity, you will love it.

It is also a common place where people have their pre-wedding photoshoot!

Ps: On lucky days, you get to spot Otters running around too. Remember to hold on to your dog ah! Tui wanted to chiong towards the otters and I see the 2 poor otters literally running for their lives.

I swear they are quite big and long.

How to get there?

Most of you probably have to drive there if you are bringing your dog, so.. ON YOUR GOOGLE MAP LAH, the lady will direct you.

For those going there by public transport without your pets:

You can take Bus Services 3, 83, 85, & 569 Alight at Blk 166A, Riviera LRT station

You might not want to go from Pasir ris because you have to take a bus to the main road outside Farmway 2, then walk sibeh far in like perhaps 45 min, by the time you reach there you pengsan already.

2) Runner-up:
Punngol Waterway

Why? Because it's just a bridge away from Lorong Harlus. hahaha. So at times when we have more energy, we will walk over to the other side and enjoy even MORE scenery!People usually go there on weekends as a family trip, there are quite a number of cyclists too, so do take note and try not to off-leash your dog.

Wah, I think my photography skills not bad hor?
#thankstothefilters

*The sheltered area on the left has water coolers, so you can refill your water bottle and at the same time quench your pup's thirst.

A big area for them to roll about too. If you are lucky, you can spot some ~~Charmander~~ small monitor lizard or char-melon there too.

Then you walk over...

Cross the bridge... omg sibeh fat. Just ignore okay I am too lazy to edit away the excess meat.

Looks like a little island.

And when you cross over:

Okay this is one super old #throwback about 2 years ago..DONT YOU MISS THEM ?!

Left: Joy, Yenyen, Tui and Nicole

Super old throwback again. Spot Hongwee, fengyi and huiyi ^^ like 2 years ago?

& while the humans starts taking tons of instagram-worthy pictures..

The fidos will find a way to entertain themselves~

#throwback of Yenyen rolling on the round haha

Does her thigh reminds you of the turkey you ate last xmas?

#filterdoeswonder.

Got seksek anot this picture.

Hinthint: Find this in the previous Pets magazine issue!

For those with younger kids, its a good place for them to explore and get near to nature instead of the usual shopping malls and staying home to play ipad. ;)

DISCLAIMER: THEY ARE NOT MY KIDS HOR HAHAHAH.

There's a SUNRISE BRIDGE where you can have an overview of the area, nice breezy place to chill with your dogs :)

We took some "family" pic the previous time we went there hehe.

On the Sunrise bridge

This is a #throwback pic of Swissroll chilling there. See the golden sunrays on him?

After the trip, you can walk further down to have some food at the near by food eateries (Sorry ah, I know there are a few cafes/ fast food/ restaurants around that area but I have not personally been there, so cannot advise you) Punggol people, if you don't mind perhaps you can share too?

Stay tuned to find out the other places that we have visited ! :D

Ciaos~

This post was specially requested by Ms Soo Beng Huay because she thinks that im too noisy in the group chat, and so I was chased away to do blogging instead.

Havent been updating much about our shelter dogs ahh? So, following the first time for TCS (Tiger, Coco and Sox), they have improved so much more! Ernie and Eddie are doing great too! Not to forget the 3Ts which I always got mixed up. >.< Benghuay, don't blame me lah. I will try my best to rmb them okie.

For the past few weeks, we went for a few OTOT packwalks, sometimes its just me and tui, sometimes is with a few of the other shelter doggies..

Let the pictures do the talking lah. If not I need to type till 2am..

my coffee table

z-10

ah u bite, bite summore!!

My hand explode ah!!

STILL DARE TO TRY YOUR LUCK AGAIN!!

Brought the girls for a run at pet movers and im so touched when I see them running about, chasing me *Insert love*

Somewhere during July...

We celebrated Jeanine's birthday.. Hongwee brought along his damn awesome Mok/Mock Prawn Aglio Olio. Not that I want to praise him but its really very nice. Not forgetting the other's effort for buying the food/ making jelly and ahem baking the seaweed chicken (me).

Our permanent guard dog..

Upon seeing her birthday cupcakes..

Looks yummeh!

Time to blow the candles

The spread~~

I spot a tamjiak merman..

AHHAHAHA

Some unpleasant things:

Sox got attacked.. and her wounds were really big..

We had to hold her, clipped off her fur before we can apply the medication..
She's a super brave girl, despite all the big raw wounds, she did not utter a sound nor put up a big struggle..

and still..

Gave us a big cherry smile :)

On one of the weekends, we celebrated Minghui (Beng huay) & Fengyi's belated birthday. This time round it was much more special because we had lots of balloons!

Decorating the place...

A new idea..

很有 feel hor?

we even had windmills!

Mr Tui joining in the partaye~~

Handsome ma?

After a few balloons lao hong... we are left with these.. the final look..

Cleaning the table to ensure all of us wont suffer from lao sai..

And as usual, somebody was late for damnnnn bloooddyyyy longgg.. All of us were famished!! You know the kind of mental torture when you see lots of good food infront of you but you cannot eat?!!?!??!?!

Feeling guilty uhhh.. Ms Soo..

Feng yi was there to help with the decorations but little did she know we had a small surprise for her as well..

The cake of the day..

Specially cater to our vegan friend Fengyi..

Still dare to twist!!!

Yellow yellow dirty fellows..

Check out Tui at the right.. zzzz. targeting at tricia's food i bet.

What is a celebration without her signature pose?

I first time see people celebrate birthday for her still got so bu shuang de face..

Feng yi looked really 委屈 to wear the hat while minghui is trying to squeeze her big head in..

Finally..

Tadah!! The bamboo charcoal cake.

It actually doesnt taste bad ok..

Dont judge a cake by its colour..

have some yakult for a healthy start!

Oh yea, VA have lots of chef..

Chef soo

Chef Sim

and

Chef Koh..

Baked by Des. Chio hor?

Jac.. What is this face about?

Then... we had our long awaited mini competition at the HDB...

Almost died before reaching HDB because Tiger wasn't being very cooperative that day T_T.

But thanks to fengyi for accompanying me while driving side by side along the road, merman Richard for waiting for me halfway and Joei+pp for staying back and walking with us if not I guess I wont be able to reach the destination even after the competition ends.

Mai gong liao (Don't say already).. Walk until want to die end up.... Tiger and I got disqualified. HAHAH. Actually is I withdrew from it because I couldn't even get her to follow and stay behind the line. She was super distracted ttm. (Which was very unlike her when shes in the kennel. we've tried the sit stay in the kennel before and she was doing great! Tiger can glue her butt to the ground and show u her mega-watt smile. but sadly...

The loser team hahaha

well, the rest continued with the competition and both dogs and humans tried very hard.
GREAT JOB! Tonkin aka pup pup managed to stay for the longest timing!

Sigh, I guess my 3 girls and I belong to the same bimbo category.. They need to take part in competitions like
"Most chio dog of the month""Miss Farmway" "Best dressed Mutt"
CONFIRM WIN !!!

then... then...

We had our
minion's day out..
which we ended up staying IN the shelter from 9.30am-12pm or so due to the heavy rain..

We did not waste the time there either becos we had our impromptu meeting..

tui with 他的女人。。

老虎。。tiger..

The power of food.

Ernie: Yumyum

*He looks.. erm...*

Minghui did her fashion show there and became our minion ambassador of the day!

Miller went to take part in the dunno what tricks competition and he won by doing "paw". T_T

Its super hilarious if you are at the event itself
WHO CAN WIN A COMPETITION BY DOING PAW ONLY SIA!!!

He did it in a super slow-mo speed.. we laughed until want cramp..

Tonkin took part in the longest sit competition and thou he wasnt the champion, he won a packet of treats for himself.

Miller.. WON AGAIN BECAUSE HE WAS TOO LAZY TO MOVE AROUND HAHAHAHAHAH!!! Super talented fatty dog. I love.
