Car ride to Momma's office

Momma had to work late, so I got to go on a car ride to pick her up from work! It's been such a long time since I got to go on a car ride to fetch Momma, so I was extra excited and made a lot of noise in the car.

Momma where are you??? Hiew hiew hiew!

When we got there, Momma was still stuck in the office and we had to wait in the carpark for her. I whined extra loudly, and I think that was what made Momma come to the car. When in doubt, whine really loudly and magic things happen!

Cooking for Grandma's bday

I thought I'd just drop a quick post to show you some pictures of Pops' cooking yesterday. Remember how he was supposed to cook for grandma's birthday? Here's how it went.

The dog that didn't get to eat any of it

A sad thing happened after lunch - Momma and Pops decided to take me to the vet! They tried to trick me by taking me to a different vet, but I recognized the smell. All vets smell the same.

Get me outta here, Momma! Pleeeeeeeease?

They took me to the vet because my ear's been hurting a bit lately. Momma says there's a lotta funky-smelling stuff in it when she cleans my ears with the fluff-sticks. I usually struggle anyway, but lately I've been yelping too.

It turns out that I have a yeast infection! The doc gave me some ear drops, so hopefully my ear won't be hurting anymore. Momma says my ear is like a vajayjay... but what's a vajayjay and why is it like my ear?

I miss Aunt Mainey

Aunt Mainey where are youuuuuuu? Why are you so far away from meeee? I need a hug, and you're way across the sea...

So I did what I do best: I tried to summon Aunt Mainey with a Golden Offering. She must have felt the magic pull of the summoning spell over in Australia, because she told me not to do it again as she has to stay in school for now.

Never underestimate the power
of my summoning spell

PS It's grandma's bday today! Pops is going to cook a special lunch for grandma! Happy barkday, grandma!

The Doberman Pharaoh cometh!

Oh no... the skies in Singapore have been kinda scary-looking lately. Every now and then, when I look outside I see smoke on the water, and fire in the sky. I asked the Beagle from down the road, and he says these are omens signaling the return of the Doberman Pharaoh.

The fire burns brightly at night

Sometimes you can even see it in the evening

All of you guys be prepared for any kind of trouble that the Doberman Pharaoh might bring. He is mighty, but we are many!

Here's a pic of Knuckles, Aunt Jol and me!

Hey I'm being squashed!

I got an award from a new friend

Recently, I made a new friend called Boomer. Boomer gave me an award called the versatile award!

Basically I have to thank the dog that gave it to us (thanks Boomer!), and then I have to share seven things about myself. So here goes:

1. I can summon humans by leaving Golden Offerings in their bedrooms. 
2. I have a natural talent that allows me to fart in my sleep.
3. My farts are either stealthy or super-sonic - either way you never hear them.
4. One last thing about my farts: I can fart with all the colors of the wind!
5. I hate baths almost as much as I hate cats.
6. I have a brother named Knuckles and a cousin named Tails.
7. I love apples!

I'm supposed to give this out to 15 other dog-bloggers, but seeing as this is an award I've not actually seen in many of your blogs, I think you should all take this award so I can learn more about you guys!

Evil Cat sighting

I haven't seen the Evil Cat for a long time now. I thought that he was chased away by The Dog Knight for good, and the only cats left are his two apprentices Chairman Meow and Eek. That's okay, because Chairman Meow and Eek are only cat-puppies, and don't really pose too much of a threat to our home.

But then I saw this in our garden:

Oh no! Poor birdy!

Destruction of this magnetude magknee maggie size can only come from the original Evil Cat. I sincerely hope that the birdy-friend lost only a few feathers, and nothing more than that.

Then while investigating the feathers, I spotted the Evil Cat out of the corner of my nose. I tried to catch him, but he was too quick (and cowardly) for me.



I'll have to be really careful from now on. The return of the Evil Cat can only mean one thing: the Dobermans are plotting something again.

Weekends with Knuckles

The last couple of weekends, I've been lucky enough to go to Grandmother's place to play with Knuckles. As brothers, we like to mess around a lot. The roughing and tussling is one thing, but Grandmother seems to get really upset when we play the marking game. It's a great game. It's like Hide and Seek, really. Knuckles leaves a Golden Offering in a hidden location, then I try to find it and then pee over it with my own Golden Offering. To make it more challenging, I have to find it before our humans clean it up.

But like I said, the humans don't really like it. So we usually just rough each other up instead.



Pops messed up the video and now it's sideways. Silly humans...

But yeah, it looks rough, but we get tired pretty quickly and then it's back to being friendly brothers again.

I've become a Backseat Boy

Ever since my Humans changed their daily routines because of Pops' new job, I haven't been getting as many car rides as I used to. And ever since I scratched Momma's leg one too many times and ruined too many of her dresses, I've also graduated to the backseat of the car.

This is my usual car spot now

I can't say I like the backseat very much. It's more spacious, but then again I don't get to cuddle up to Momma. And since there's not always a human back there to snoopervise me, I don't get to stick my face out of the window and get some wind in my face.

But I have some good news, though! I find that if I hiew hiew long and loud enough, I can Jedi Mind Trick my Momma into letting me sit with her in the front seat again. Pops is able to resist my Jedi powers a bit more, but soon even he will bend to my will! As soon as he stops yelling at me, anyway. Because that hurts my feelings and I can't use my Jedi powers when my feelings are hurt.

Anyway, here's a video of me getting some wind in the face. Which is awesome! You haven't lived until you get some wind in the face!

Random Picture Moment

You can't tell from the picture, but I can fart and sleep at the same time. I'd teach you how, but sometimes you just have to be born talented.

Quick recap of the past week

I can't believe it's been over a week since I last blogged! My nasty Pops has been so busy with things that he's refused to help me blog. I've angrily left Golden Offerings under his desk a few times to show my disgust with him, but it just makes him angrier. Hiew hiew!

Well, at least I'm able to get on now and fill you guys in on what's been going on. Last week, my Humans played a trick on me and took me to the vet! Apparently it wasn't enough that they stuck me in the Cone of Shame, but they had to bring me to the vet as well.

Oh no! Not the vet!

On the bright side, there wasn't really all too much discomfort at the vet. They stuck some fluffy sticks in my ears to check, but there was also a metal pokey stick into the skin on my back. That kinda stung a bit. You know, like when your poopy is a bit stubborn.

I also saw a card on the wall, and it looked a lot like my friend Tanuki Maxx! Hey Maxx, is this you?

Is that Tanuki Maxx?

On August 9, it was National Day in Singapore, which pretty much means it's our country's bark day. We celebrated the weekend holiday by going over to great grandma's place. Knuckles and Tails were there too, and we played together a lot. I celebrated by wearing my red collar and leash (white and red are Singapore's national colors). Though as the Beagle from down the road pointed out, it's really quite ironic to be celebrating a day of independence with a collar and leash. I'll have to talk to my Humans about that next year.

Then there was this time when Momma and Pops were alone at home, and my grandparents were out of the house. So Momma and Pops tried to play kissy-face and wrestle on the couch. But you know what? It's MY couch. So I chased them away and reclaimed my couch! Pops called me a "clock broker" or something. I have no idea what he means though.

This is MY couch!

Oh, and while Pops might be a total slacker when it comes to my blog, he's at least helped me start a Twitter account! So now you guys on Twitter can follow all my silliness at twitter.com/sonicthedoggy

Hope to see you on Twitter soon!

The Cone of Shame

Recently, I got this scratch behind my ear, and it got kinda itchy. So I did the obvious thing and scratched it some more with my paw. I'm not sure why, but it got worse! Then it started bleeding, and got really uncomfortable. The more I scratched, the worse it got!

So Momma put some weird cream stuff on it to help it get better, but I knew how to instantly make the itch go away by scratching it. Momma got really upset, and then she put the Cone of Shame on me!

I've never seen the Cone of Shame before, but when she took it out I instantly felt its power and I cowered. I was so scared. I've never been that scared before. I mean, it was scarier than a thousand dobermans!

"Momma please! I promise I won't do
whatever I did wrong again!"

Momma had trouble putting it on me because I was so strong and fast, so she had to get Pops to help her. Every time they put it on, I squirmed my way out of it, until Momma tied it to my collar and finally I was captured by the Cone of Shame.

So I did the only thing I could at that point - I panicked. I just stood there and shook. I couldn't bring myself to move, because it was like I was held it some kinda fear shield. I felt so trapped... every time I moved, I bumped into something because I couldn't see around me. When my Humans took me outside to pee (they had to carry me up and down the stairs because I couldn't walk the stairs myself), I couldn't do it. I just froze out there. They had to take off the Cone before I could pee.

After the garden, they put it back on and I returned to my frozen, panicked state. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't even bring myself to lie or sit down. Pops stayed up with me for a while, hoping that I would fall asleep but I couldn't. Later on, Momma felt so bad for me that she took the Cone off. And it was only then that I could bring myself to fall asleep.

But I still had nightmares about the Cone of Shame that night...

Random Picture Moment

To defeat a cat, you must be able to think and act like a cat, right? So the other night, I tried climbing like a cat. It worked, but then I found myself in trouble when I got to the top of Pops' bookshelf.

How exactly am I supposed to get down now???

The Price of Freedom

I was out on patrol again the other morning, and I saw not one but two cats in my garden! There was the Evil Cat, and a new cat that I have now codenamed Chairman Meow. The forces of Evil are growing in numbers, and The Dog Knight must rise again to protect my Humans.

Chairman Meow, hiding in plain sight

As the Beagle from down the road once told me, the Price of Freedom is eternal vigilants viligi vegetables... erm, the Price of Freedom is eternal snooping around!

I can paw!

About a week or two ago, Aunt Jol taught Knuckles how to "paw" and every time he did it, he got a snack! So I figured that it would be a great way to get extra snacks too, so Momma and I sat down one morning and together we both learned a new trick. I'd paw, and she'd feed me. It's what's best for both of us.



In the meantime, Pops slept.
