Hot Spots 2 Continued

5th day of hot spots.  Almost all dried up, hooray!

Today also my grooming day. My groomer Aunty Janet comes to our house. She's what we call a Home Groomer.

After grooming; Do I look neat and handsome? ^_^

Trying hard to keep my eyelids opened. Me mentally tired after going through my much hated grooming session. 

Not that I dislike Aunt Janet. I adore her! She always gives me little biscuits during and after the grooming.  She has been very gentle with me and both she and Mommy commented that I have improved TREMENDOUSLY since my very first session with her way back in March 2006. I was moving everywhere on the grooming table; pulled back my arms and legs when my nails were being trimmed etc.  I just HATE grooming per se. Period.

So I thought I should show Mommy this sulky face as a protest! Humph!

Hot Spots 2

Erm... ... not hot spots for wi-fi okay??!


What rotten luck! I've got these yucky hot spots again! The last time was last year. Mommy detected the 1st spot 2 days ago, she felt something lumpy and then something wet when she touched my back. Quickly rang the vet but the earliest appointment we could be fixed for was this morning. So we off we went to the vet first thing in the morning. Again I needed to be shaved at the affected area:

Of course we can't expect a good styling. Most important is to have the area air out to dry.

Note from Mommy: Bowie screamed a little when those hairs that got stuck with the dried pus was shaved over. My heart was also in pain :'(  I was holding him down but my eyes were shut and my knees were shaking, no kidding.  Luckily Daddy was also there helping us.

My tail has to be bandaged as it is constantly swiping over the wounds.

Resting after antibiotics medicine plus an injection given to stop itchiness, lest I lick at the wound. I can't be put on the 'lamp shade' thingy as that thingy stresses me out!

Sleeping behind the sofa. Mommy watches me like a hawk!

Sleeping against Mommy, yeah!

Wish the yuckies will quickly heal and my nice fur growing back. So f**king ugly now!

Wake Up

Bear-Bear: "Hey! Wake up Bowie! Let's Play!"

Bowie: "ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ..........."

New Bed

New bed, for real this time!



"Hey Mom, I think this bed is kinda ... too small for me! But it's just nice when I curl up though."

 

Meal Time II

Refer here for Meal Time I.

Lifting up left paw in anticipation!

Close-up: looking intently at my bowl, ready to attack :)  Ooh, pardon my messy hair!

Focusing on my kibbles, waiting for Mommy's okay command (note: Mommy not ill-treating me with this miserable amount of kibbles; she merely giving me in many small amounts so as to let me eat slower :P).

See? So fast I cleaned up the bowl!!

Mommy....! No more!

Robin Hood

Mommy, do I look like Robin Hood?



Mommy: "LOL Bowie! Wearing a green hood does not make you Robin Hood. Em..okie, why not be Robin Hood's lil' assistant for now?"

Not believing Mommy, I googled and found that indeed I don't look like one :(  This dude looks more like one:

Sleep Baby Sleep

Daddy is home!

It's evening time and people are reaching home from work in our neighbouring units.

Me pricking my ears listening... ...is it our door being opened?



No, it isn't!



YES! This time it is! Yeah, daddy is home! (started running which explains the blurry photo ^_^)

Chinese New Year 2010

It will be CNY again SOON (this year it clashes with Valentine's Day). I know because I see jars of yummies the hoomans called CNY Goodies!



"Mommy...... can I have a bite?? pleeeeaaasseee?!

Bowie-Mommy: Nope! They are not meant for you, plus they are also not healthy for you! (Bowie's thot: Duh! They are also not healthy for Mommy and Daddy. Watch those calories and those expanding waistlines *roll eyes*)

New Bed Again (And Again)??

Bowie-Mommy: Bowie-Daddy again left an empty recycled shopping bag on the floor.  When I turned around from my computer desk (the bag was near the wall behind me), I had to laugh at the silly boy. Check it out here as this was not the first time! hmm ... ...^_^

New Bed (Again??)

Daddy left this squarish thingy lying on the floor. I thought it is my new (FLAT) bed so I had to test it.

Mommy: "Silly boy! That's just a recycling bag."


Note by Mommy:  This silly boy had a similar cute mistake back in year 2003 when he was just a 5-mth old pup! Some things just never change eh?

Grooming: Before and After

Before:



After:



The weather has been sooo warm recently I'm glad Mommy made a wise choice to have my beautiful silky fur (*thick-skinned eh? ^_^*) trimmed short.  It also made me look very slim, ooh!

Note from Mommy: Oh, I just have to dig out this classic long fur shot of Bowie. We laugh so hard every time we look at this photo! whoahahahaha..........we think he looked like those old wise guru!

Happy 6th Barkday

Today is my 6th barkday! In terms of hooman's age, I am about 37 - 40 years old ... OMG!

(note: a quick Google search showed that it is not accurate to simply multiply a dog's age by 7 since dogs reach adulthood within the first couple of years.  Anyway since no one can really verify that, no point worrying about that heh).



Daddy said I'm going to have mid-life crisis soon.  *Very funny Daddy, see my paws are laughing!*

Taa...daa...! My barkday cake that Mommy baked!

It's an American Carrot Cake. There's healthy (grated) carrot inside! But there's also not-so-healthy sugar too so not the whole cake you see is mine. :'(


Mommy: "Bowie, I see you are drooling. You want?"


Noooo! I don't want such a small one! I want the whole cake! Hmph!


*Should I or should I not take this smaller cake?*


*Think I'd better take it. Better than nothing right?*


Ok Mommy, deal!

Rolling Good Time

My favourite activity on bed besides sleeping is to ROLL!!

Oh yeah...!







Roll till my hair is all messed up...



...then look at Mommy innocently and act cute:



  heeheehee..^_^



Then changed location and rolled somemore!

 

Oh yeah..! That was shiok! Very shiok!!
