********************************************

I'm deeply considering and thinking which event should I go. I love dogs, I would like my furkid to socialize, but I would also like to participate in helping the environmentals, but I can't split myself into half. =( . I'm not too sure if I could make it to attend both, attend the Canon Goes Green, then attend MRD in time since MRD events is till afternoon. Perhaps I shall leave till tonight to decide, let my mood to decide my tomorrow.

So, anyone going to any of this event? Do come and enjoy the fun and spread the goodness of it.

Upcoming : Dogathon 2008

Hey guys together with your 4-legged friend, the Dogathon event which I have much anticipate is back! This event have actually kickstart since 1997 and to be held yearly which is to address the awareness of stray dogs. In this event, the owner and the furkid will need to run/walk for 2.5km.

I just can't wait for the following date as I have much enjoyed Dogathon last year. Usually, my furkid wouldn't want to run nor jog, she'll just hardened her body and sit still at 1 place. To my surprise, on the Dogathon 2007 she just wouldn't stop running and I couldn't catch up with her.

Malaysia Dog Olympic Day 2008

Yippie! My furkid finally looks girlish today, her fur/coat/fringe are just long enough for me to tye up so it won't block her view.


Baby shots


Manage to capture this shot when she's licking her nose, seems like she's eating or aiming something yummy.


Last weekend I attended the Malaysia Dog Olympic Day 2008 held at Central Park, Banadar Utama, Malaysia organized by puppy.com.my and sponsored by Purina. This is the time where we can see lotsa different breed of dogs, dog clubs, and pet lovers gathered together for the same passion - Love of their dog.

It started rizzling when we reached there so we went for McD Breakfast. *yum yum*.


They have a few competition for the participants, those who scored the highest will win the champion. For those who did not participate in the Olympic, they could join the mini games which is quite interesting such as Dog Simon Say. I wanted to participate this together with my furkid however it seems like she wasn't that well and active that day. So, i just brought her there to socialize with other furkid and also to let her enjoy her walk while my eye gets the feast (don't misunderstood, it's just feast by looking all the doggies, they're all equavalent adorable).

Of coz, everytime there's a dog event there'll be performance by the Police K9 which is interesting and entertaining. The crowd gathered beside waiting enthusiastly for this. The K9 did jump into a hoop with fire(how daring they are! I don't even dare too), they'll attack/bite the "suspect" until the trainer says to let go, else, they would not let go even if u stand and swing, the dog's jaw will still be biting it and swing in the air. Their nose sense are so powerful that even the drugs are in a suitcase they're able to sniff it out as well. Just wondering, are those those actually addicted to these drugs? Coz they've been trained to sniff out these things. I've taken a few videos but to be uploaded soon. Stay tune!

Thre's this Caucasian breed dog imported from Russia for RM9k which caught many attention of the dog lovers there. It is only 7 months olsd and the size is huge, if I do not recall wrongly it's size is slightly bigger than an adult German Shephard.

This is it - the Caucasian




I walked around in the park and this dog caught my attention, he was really obedient that his owner called him to sit still, he'll sit nd stay at the same place to allow us to take his picture. And not to forget, he has very nice fluffy fur.



We really enjoyed this type of events as we get to socialize around and could exchange soem interesting stories and also knowlegeable information. At the end of the day, we're both so tired but I still gotta bath her and she gets to relax with my massage during the bath (but she doesn't like to take bath). Looking forward for this next event!

Purina One 30-Day Performance Challenge - Season 2 Final

Oh yes, I am the host for Purina One 30-Day Performance Challenge - Season 2 Final. It was kinda fun but of coz, it's nervous for me as well as this is my first time doing a video shooting.

I did a photoshooting for an advertisement last time, that was years back but wasn't that nervous, cus that was with a bunch of people, it was really fun but tiring. Everyone will have to co-operate in order to take a nice shot.

So, I'll let the video do the talking then. Below are all the contestants video and also introduction about Purina One 30-Day Performance Challenge. Anyway, hope you enjoy~

So, what do you think about it? =)

Happenings of Pet Malaysia 2008

Hmm..ok, I know it's a little late to talk about the post events of Pet Malaysia Day 2008 now, but again, I was busy with other stuff earlier on.

I remembered I couldn't really sleep well the night before. As usual, I'm just over excited about it and din get to have a good night sleep, and yeah... I woke up very early too! I'm just used to waking up early everyday now.

So, before going to the event, manage to snap a picture of myself first without my furkid. All ready up to go to the event!



Once we reach and I left Suki on a table, hmm...being taken advantaged by the other furkid.


Suki had a really bad habit that she kind of marks her terrotory everytime she goes out. So, got to bring her to the poo and pee area real fast before she starts marking the marks in the wrong area. She will normally sniff around first then takes a real long time before letting herself doing her small business at the area.


Before we go into the exhibition hall, there are many dogs "hanging out" just outside the hall. and I caught one of it in the act. Pleasuring him/her self. hm...you must be thinking who and what kinda act is that. It's kinda cleaning him/herself up, maybe it has just finish it's business as well.It's just a normal act which dogs does.


When we head in the exhibition hall, we'll need to have a chop at our hands first to show that you made the payments for the entrance.


Before roaming around the area, it is a must for me to snap a nice picture of both of us first(before Suki looks tired and messy)!


Argh... such a disaster of the day. Suki poo-ed in the exhibition hall! It's the slimy type and as a responsible owner, of course I cleaned it up as well although it took me quite some time.

Below are the pictures taken from the event.


Suki : WoW..these birds looks tasty, wonder if chicken or these birds is tastier.

Beautiful princesses.


The cutie.


The active little tiny furkid - Yorkshire Terrier.


Fishes.


I find these cruel. Each of the fish is put into a small plastic bag with so little of water.. The water is about half or 3/4 of the plastic only. It doesn't cover the fish fully.


Popeye fish.


The golden twins.


Gizmo. Not sure if you know what Gizmo is, it's actually a creature is a movie which I've watch when I was younger. There's the evil Gizmo and the good ones. But of course, this is not a Gizmo, just happen to snap a picture of a look alike. It's a Pomeranion.


Lazy cats. Sleeps all time when we were there.




Suki: Hm...what on earth is this creature? It has a leash as well and it doesn't look like my kind.
Emeryn : It's a ferret.

Close-up of the ferret.




Suki: Oh gosh, do I look like this when I was still a puppy? It's totally different.



Suki : I din dinosaur still exist!

Eukanuba BIG ads.


I signup for Petster megazine at their booth. I've always wanted to have some pets mefazine and now I have it. After paying RM20.00 for a year of subscription, I found out that it's actually a free copy of megazine which they distribute 20,000 copies every month. What a foolish me! But nevermind, at least I get to have these deliverred to my door step every month and not need to rush to the shops or vets to get a copy.


I bought some pets megazines from SPCA as well. it's only RM10.00 for 3 different issue. Although it's old issues, the megazine is quite thick and I guess it should be informative as well.




Dog : Whatcha looking at? Jealous that I look better than you? Dare to fight me then!


Dog : Argh... I lost to Suki!

After a few hours in the exhibition hall, it's time to head back. Suki was dead tired in the journey back home.
