B2K Yishun Warehouse Sale!

We cannot miss a Warehouse sale especially for PET!
We wanted to look for some eye solution, toys, or whatever we can find them CHEAP!
There were messy and in boxes so you have to dig your hands in boxes and dust! I couldn't handle that so I just take care of TOto!
The lady boss were very impressed with TOto hahaha and call him a BIG DOG! She was impress TOto didn't bark and was doing his own stuffs and didn't bother anyone!
TOto were the only dog there and the staffs were not bothered by him!
Nothing much we can buy, dog bowls are huge, crates are  way too small.
TOto eat Raw diet, and only home made treats so there isn't much we wants.
There were boxes of my favourite ME-to-YOU bear dog's item!
But we managed to grab some stuffs and these are what we gotten!
A shampoo to wash his washcloth, 2 pull toys and a collar.
The dental treats are given to us, maybe we can gift it to Oska; a friend new puppy Shiba! 

TOto need more toys!

Grooming TABLE!

After grooming TOto for 2years plus, I finally have a REAL grooming table!
TOto is too HUGE and HEAVY for me to handle him in just my lap. It will always ends up looking like we have had a WRESTLING session with me 'scissor' wrap his head under my thigh while stripping him! And the constant bending down to strip him is killing my back! And after 2 years I should have 'earn' my table right!? Well, we bidded the table from eBay and I think Hub pays about USD80+ for it.

I still don't know whether he likes the table or not, or will he REFUSE to use them!?
TOto looks HUGE on the table!
Makes the table look so TINY!
My furry white monster!
Hopefully I feels better to strip him soon ...

TOto's Zippy stroller!

After the last outing, I MADE THE DECISION; we have to get a Pet stroller BECAUSE when TOto is tired, mammeee has to carry him! And mammeee has no strength carrying a 20lb furkid walking about a EXPO!

In my heart, I do not want to exceed the budget of USD50, so our selection is very limited!

We saw alot of people using the first DARK BLUE stroller shown in the picture when we are at the Dallas Pet Expo. That is the cheapest type of Pet stroller we see on Ebay but still selling at about USD52.00 for TOto's weight but the structure looks kinda of flimsy. 

The ORANGE Stroller is another 'Brandless' stroller that we see online selling for USD52.00 but Hubbie is very skeptical about the QUALITY. But the seller has lots of colour available and I love the ORANGE!

I loved the YELLOW Stroller but it is a refurbished and selling @53.00 which is also a very COPYCAT design to PetGear's Happy Trail (BLUE colour)! Daddeee is leaning towards PetGear's Happy Trail because it has some good reviews on Amazon.com but it absolutely EXCEED our budget; it is selling cheapest @$90.00!!

You can call me stingy but I don't want to get something so expensive and in the end TOto refused to use it! And in the end the money is wasted. If I AM VERY SURE TOto will use them, then I have no qualms about getting a good and expensive one. So we search on ...

Most better brands are selling for at least USD100 and above, and I am still hoping we can get a 3 wheeled Jogger stroller which is even costlier!

Mammeee suddenly thought of Craiglist and so we tried our luck there!
There are indeed a few sellers trying to get rid of their Pet strollers, and although there are a few good 'choices' but mostly people are selling their PINK stroller! But still Heaven is on our side, we spotted a PETZIP Lime Green stroller is on sale and only used once by her Chihuahua. This is one of the more 'branded' stroller we researched online too. I immediately emailed her and bargain abit more, and she agreed immediately. Hahaha it is indeed a VERY BARGAIN price, but we are not going to reveal here hahhahaha because we might want to resell it if TOto doesn't want to use them!

Petzip Sports XL is selling for about USD140+ online!

It was a fast deal, I contacted the seller 9pm, she replied and I collect the next day morning 11am.
It is freaking hot again, very soon after we paid and collected the stroller; surprisingly TOto jump up IMMEDIATELY without much coaxing!

The stroller is really NEW with some cosmetic scratches at the plastic which we realised is unavoidable during folding. And I love the matching of grey and lime green color!
It folds down rather easily too!

Fits into our small car boot!
And we decide to bring him to a AIR CON Mall for training!
He did quite well without Barking and moving too much.
But if I move infront of him, he doesn't allow that and would scratch on the net.
He looks rather grouchy in the net but I think he knows he has to stay inside and he behaved rather well too! Alot of people didn't realized that we have a furkid inside because TOto doesn't bark hahahaha!

Waiting for weekend to come and test out the stroller again but he did real well on the first try out.
He willingly jump right into the stroller from the car, and jump right into the car from the stroller!

I hope this Stroller can help us through the tough summer in Texas!

A New Fan and new Collars!

Was out shopping and gotten this Vornado Flippi V6 Air Circulator Fan for TOto.

We saw that it was selling for USD19.90 online but was surprised to see that it was selling for USD14.99 instore. The corner we kept his crate is so well hidden, the area must be very warm; but now he has his own personal fan blowing DIRECTLY at him!

Only the best of our darling furboy ...
And accidentally, we saw these collars on CLEARANCE, only USD1.78!
Recently we only shopped for TOto ...

Dog Park EVERYDAY, what's in the BAG!?

The weather is very SPRING this few days and TOto goes to the dogpark EVERYDAY!
I realised only TOto has this SPECIAL bag that is hang on the gate which is used for ONLY TOto's stuffs! In the past we used to have this "Minnie mouse" bag but I have upgraded to this bag that I purchased from Taiwan. 

TOto will parked himself right under his bag when he wants a drink OR when he just want to play 'fetch'! TOto knows his water, and ballball is in the bag!
Can you see the 'Animals' on the bag?
I love the cutesy Animal design; LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT!

Let's see what is inside TOto's personal bag!
We always bring our own filtered water using Lock & Lock Mountain Water Bottle. It's BPA free and very durable, using Eastman Chemical Co.'s new material Tritan copolyester. We try to be as health conscious for TOto as much as possible; to the extend of the material of his water bottle, hahaha!
The next most important things to bring, and of course his 'toys'; the Ball launcher is a saver for our wrist, hand and back!  He can play a few hours of fetch and still come home begging to play MORE!

An extra item in the bag; the rubber frisbee. Frisbee-ing is what my Hub hopes TOto can do, but I gave up the idea of TOto being a 'Frisbee' Dog. TOto is just not meant to play frisbee. Whereas alot of people watch in awe when TOto plays 'fetch' and that is when I realised there are alot of dogs that do not know how to play fetch!! They just chase after the ball but NEVER bring it back!!
TOto new foldable bowl! 
You'll be surprised how many people do not bring water for their dogs! And that's the reason we bring such a big bottle of water. During the hotter days, we bring even a bigger bottle for TOto AND, all other dogs in the park! We are not that '伟大' (great), we just don't want TOto to end up having nothing to drink. Because when it comes to sharing, TOto is s.t.u.p.i.d; no matter how thirsty he is, he will always allow the other dogs to drink first! *faint* And sometimes there will be a very thirsty dog that just park himself next to our drinking bowl and finish everything, *Faint*!
And lastly a Lock&Lock container for TOto's snack after his day in the park!
We usually feed him some snacks on the car and TOto will usually gobble all the biscuits and goes to sleep!
The other miscellaneous items would be 'wet tissue' and poop bag. There are alot of times when TOto just got poop on him or gotten peed at! *Faint*, TOto is so 'S.L.O.W' sometimes! We are that typical 'kiasu/kiasee' (Scare to lose/Scare to die) Singaporean couple in an America Dog Park.

Hahahhaha ...

TOto's new bed ...

TOto loves the new US$10.00 bed we bought for him from Bonton.com! It seems like the price has increase to US$14.00, haha maybe to cover for their 'Free shipping' coupon that is floating online!

The first night we introduce the bed to him ...
27"L x 36"W x 4"D
He was sleeping so deeply on it!
Snuggling tightly, on the next day afternoon ...
And flipping, snoring away on next day night ...
The material of the bed is like its price, so don't expect orthopedic quality. It just feels like a Walmart US$5.00 pillow! BUT,no matter how much he loves the new bed, he would still be sneaking onto our bed in the middle of the night! Bleah ~

History of TOto's chew

Since TOto is feeling better, and is still very tired from the weekend 'Fun'; I have some time to do some updating! On Monday, TOto slept till 12.30pm! I have to coax him to wake up and go down to do his business. I was in such a mood, I brought him to the pool area for him to 'explore' himself while I sit by and watch. But he was so tired, TOto just jumped up and rested on my thigh! *Faint*

Maple's mommy post on Maple's chew prompted me to write about a post on TOto's chew. TOto has salvage quite a number of chew. Smaller puppies usually has smaller mouth, so the tougher chews are usually too big for them. So we had to progress slowly, and TOto is a TOUGH chewer!

He started with Hartz Chew n Clean, I think it comes with his 'Puppy package' from our breeder. He loves it but he only chew the end which is very small. And usu
Then we progresses him to a bigger chew, Nylabone Puppy DOUBLE ACTION CHEW! But this is too soft for TOto and he swallow quite alot of the orange RUBBER!
We find too much orange rubber in his poop which makes us very uncomfortable with TOto continuing with this chew! Rubber Intoxification!
Those were the days, when he is so cute and fluffy!
The next progression is a tougher chew!
@5mths old, TOto is now at the Nylabone 'PRO ACTION'! TOto shredded the head of the chew, and the jagged edge of the plastic cuts into his gums! And after some intense chewing we realised TOto gum is always bleeding!! We can spot blood stain on the plastic! So we are on the search for another chew which should be TOUGH and the plastic should not cut the gum!
We remember watching a Puppy training video where the trainer highly recommend Nylabone Galileo® Bone which is 'Indestructible'!
Nah it isn't as indestructible' for TOto, he shredded one of the edges and now on the 2nd edge! This is TOto showing off some of his collection! Chews are one of the item we don't mind spending money on to relieve his canine instinct!

This are all of his plastic chews! I forget his 'Bison Antler'!
Look at the Yellow wax-like chew, it is almost finishing soon!
The triangular chew is another 'Indestructible' Chew from Walmart; Dogzilla!
Till this date, TOto loves the Gallileo most and he will bring 'Leo' to you and request either me or hubs to HOLD on the chew for him to chew on!

Our Westie.TOto and Kong

We bought this Kong toy like since forever but TOto only learnt how to like to play with it recently!
So weird ...
Kong can buy us some time when TOto is very needy and seeking attention when we are busy! And usually after TOto try lick the biscuit out of Kong; he is so tired he usually doesn't request for more Treats!

Toto with his Kuranda lookalike bed!

He is highly skeptical about this new bed of his, it seems that he don't really like it. Sometime we think, Toto feels that the bed is not his, and keep looking at us for acknowledgement. Hopefully Toto grows to love it. Small steps, Step by step ...
