Morning exercises with my Humans

Lately, my Humans have been waking up really early in the morning to do some exercises. Like, really really early, like the sun hasn't even come up yet. Which is good for me, cos that means I get to play with them sooner.

They usually go running, and then they'll come back into our room and do some more exercises. Sometimes I join them too, like this morning when I was exercising my chewing muscles.

Random Picture Moment

Have you guys ever seen my pawrents? Not my Momma and Pops, I mean. Those two are my Humans. My pawrents are the dogs that ordered Knuckles and I from the stork. Momma just showed me a picture of them, so I wanted to share it with you guys.

These are my pawrents

Can you see the resemblance?

Foursquare, Silkese-style

Today, I got to go over to grandmother's place to hang out with Knuckles. As usual, I really didn't like it when my Humans played and cuddled Knuckles, and I would dash over and start chasing Knuckles around. Pops thought it was very naughty of me, and decided to put me on "time out" by leashing me to the door.

I was a naughty boy

I was there for very long though, and soon I was out and about playing with Knuckles again. Foursquare is pretty popular with Momma and Aunt Jol (Pops retired from it a few months ago), and basically it's a game where you "check-in" at different places, and the person with the most check-ins at a place would become the mayor. I'm not sure what a mayor is, but I'm guessing it's like an alpha dog.

Knuckles and I don't have iPhones of our own, so we would check-in by leaving a Golden Offering. I became mayor of the dining room chair, and the balcony. Knuckles got the kitchen, the gate, and some other places I shouldn't mention in case grandmother is reading this.

It was definitely pretty fun. Oh yeah, check out Knuckle's new tag. It says "I <3 Food". It's pretty "duh" if you ask me, considering he steals so much human food. But it definitely suits him!

He kinda looks like he has buck teeth here.

Anyway, it was such a long day, I think I'm gonna curl up and sleep.

My tush

I don't understand my Pops. Every day when he comes home from work, he complains that he's too tired and exhausted to help me blog. And now I've missed out on Twink's Tushy Contest! Hiew hiew hiew!

I mean, I'm pretty tired too, you know? I have a tough day too. Being the family pet is a full-time job. I always have to show them love and affection, and it takes a lot of effort to look so damn cute while I nap in the afternoon! But do I ever complain? No! Cos it's my job. It's a fun job, but it's still a job.

At any rate, I did get a picture of my tush and though it's late, here it is!

Not as floofy as Khyra's, but still pretty floofy

I scream for ice cream

Last night, Momma came home in the evening, and instead of letting me out into the garden to pee like she normally does when she comes home, she scoops me up and brings me to the car, where Pops and Turdley Uncle Qian were waiting! I got to go and visit the Great Outside!

We went to get ice cream, and well... it sounds better than it was. Basically, everyone ordered chocolate, and we all know that chocolate is dog-poison. Why humans like to eat dog-poison, I will never know.

All that ice-cream... but I get nothing

Then Turdley Uncle Qian let my Humans play with his new iPad. Guess who didn't get to play with the iPad though? That's right... me!Apparently that iPad is not paw friendly. I need to get myself an iPaw or something.

We got to hang out a bit, I barked at a few strangers (they were sneaky!) and then it was time for us to go home. I stayed out a bit later than usual, but I had a good time. Anytime I get to go to the Great Outside is a good time!

Weekend update

Wow, it's Thursday and I'm doing the weekend update. That shows you just how lousy I've been with updates! It's all Pops' fault, really.

Anyway, we went to visit Knuckles and Aunt Jol on the weekend, and then the humans all went to the park to see some Animal Day thing there. There were lots of dogs to meet, and things to sniff. But you know what's wrong with it? KNUCKLES AND I DIDN'T GO!

How could you leave this face at home?

Our humans wanted to go cycling, and they didn't trust us to sit nicely in a basket while they cycled. They had a poor excuse, like "it's for our own safety." Hiew hiew hiew!

But later that night was fun. Grandpa's side of the family came over for dinner, and I had lots of fun with uncles and aunts, and human puppies!

It's not like I was going to bite her!
I'm a Silkese, not a pitbull!

One of the human puppies was really scared of me, because I barked once at her. I must've let some of my Dog Knight aggressiveness out by accident when I got spooked by the crowd.

But the other human puppy was pretty cool. He kept crawling around the floor, pretending to be a dog like me. How funny is that? A human puppy pretending to be a dog puppy! Although he kept calling me "wo wo" though. What's "wo wo"? Is that human-speak for "hiew hiew"?

My name is not "Wo Wo"!

Grooming day!

Oh no! I thought I was going to get an awesome pawsome car ride during the weekend, but like that squiddy guy likes to say: "It's a trap!"

I got taken straight to the groomers, and it was awful. I had my nice fuzzy fur all cut away!

Before...

I can't complain too much though. Singapore is a really really warm country, and it does make things a bit more comfortable if my fur is cut short. If I were a Sibe, I think I would just die. Of course, when my fur is cut short, I feel less naughty and awesome. I feel like a sissy little human's boy, which isn't all that cool. 

I guess I'll just have to make up for it by peeing everywhere!

After!

Uncle Aaron came to visit!

Okay, I know I haven't been blogging lately... so sorry about that! Basically, in the last week, Pops' BFF Uncle Aaron has been in town for a holiday! Uncle Aaron normally lives in Australia, and Pops and Momma haven't seen him since their wedding two years ago. So Pops was quite excited about hanging out with Uncle Aaron again. And I was too, because I've never seen him before!

Me and Uncle Aaron

Anyway, it was pretty good to have him here. He didn't bring me any toys from Australia, but that's okay. Cos he plays with me a lot, and feeds me treats! And even when he's playing Xbox with Pops, he still takes a break to rough my fur a bit.

He also lets me get up and nap on his bed, even though he knows I accidentally pee-paw myself sometimes. That's what humans do when they like you!

It's comfy up here on Uncle Aaron's bed

Really comfy... zzz...

He's gone back to Australia now, but hopefully he'll come and visit us again soon!
