Sleepy Nap Time

One of the best ways of knowing when the dogs have settled into their new home is when they all choose their own spot for downtimes and naps :)

This is Lady's spot, under the table. She also likes to hide out in the van and under the bed. Anything that makes her feel safe and secure!

Ah yes, Phoebe on the sofa - such a no no, but i can't resist! And Oscar settles nicely on a pillow...

... cuz someone has to look after the toy box! Ah, life is hard :P

Here's Magic being a good boy and settling on his bed. Such a sweet boy, curled up in a little black ball.

And Bubbles (my sister's dog) has her own safe zone in our crate... yes she fell asleep as we were taking the shot!

Sweet dreams everyone!

Bagel & Wei Wei

Are you hungry? How about a Bagel? :P This mini daschund is so cute that you might just want to pack him up and take him home! (aka ta-bao!)

Puppies are always fun to have around - more so if they have a playmate to keep themselves entertained! Thankfully there was Wei Wei :)

Such a puppy face still - he's quite the charmer with the camera don't you think?

These are the last photos taken at Race Course Road > we are now officially at our new location at Hillview! :D

Hari Raya Celebrations!

Wen-wen-Wendy! :) Still a puppy, she took a few days to come out of her shell (we know, it can be a scary place for the first time); but when she did...

She plays hide & seek in her bed! Peek-a-Boo!

And poses for funny pictures too: CHEESE! Ok ok, this is the fault of the one behind the camera (me) and too bright a flash!

Ah fatty fatty fatty... am not being rude, that what we call him. But his real name is Pancake :) Long time no stay over, so he was a little unsettled. He likes his home... aww poor Pancake.

Another repeat stay! We haven't seen Gou Gou in almost a year - great to have his happy spirit around again.

And Tobi! Hmmm... this is his official hiding spot, under the shelf, where the big fan is. I think he likes the updraft? Hehe.

Ume & Milky

Now, this Westie looks nothing of the 9 year age that he's suppose to be! Milky is a happy character and shows it with his adorable face.

"Check out my cute button nose!"

He had a friend during his stay; none other than Ume! They played well, but since Milky IS older, Ume sometimes had to listen to him. SOMETIMES!

"Play with me? No?"

"How about with my cow friend here? C'mon!"

Nice face shots of Ume & Milky :)

Boarding Rates @ MIBO (wef 1 Dec 2009)

In constantly looking for ways to provide better service and value for your dollar, MIBO is restructuring its boarding rates.

Small/Medium Breeds: $35/day

Large Breeds: $40/day

(with effect from 1 December 2009)

*All other admission criteria continue to apply.

The adjusted rate includes all walks and field outings during your dog's stay.

Presently, a medium dog's stay of 5 days ($150) with one park outing ($50) would total to $200. With the new rate, that would be only $175. A savings of $25. And your dog would surely enjoy more than one outing a week, at no extra cost to you! We are able to provide this to you as our new facility in Hillview has areas that are safe for dog walking and "freedom" runs :)

We are in the process of lining up more changes which include Birthday Parties and DayCare packages! We'll get our paws to it before the year is up... hot diggity dog!

Santa

Before you think we've lost our minds and wonder if it's Christmas, don't worry we know it's not that time of the year yet. But that doesn't mean we don't receive "presents" as cute as this guy here! Meet Santa:

He brings with him much joy and laughter with his quirky antics. You see, the 9 year old Pekingese is an oldie with much soul.

Lest you think he's all grouchy and grumpy (pictures don't do him justice), wait till you hold out on giving him his "cheese sticks" that he gets as a reward for getting his eyes cleaned. Oh we will remind you with a bossy little bark that translates to "what's the hold up?! Gimme my cheese sticks!"

With all that bundled in this little package, it's starting to feel like Christmas already! :D

National Day 2009

"Happy National Day!"

If you can't hear her, that's what Phoebe is saying :) Here's who stayed over for the festivities:

Jojo - She's a Miss Senior GR; content to staying under the table and watch the world go by.

"You have something for me?"

She's a smart gal to stay out of the way...

from Coco! Oh gosh, that smile makes me smile right along, haha.

This French Bulldog had a pal in Ziggy (yup, my foodie king)

"... psst... i can hear through walls with my BIG ears!"

Rub A Dub Dub

There come a time when a certain odour fills the air... then the dreaded words are said:

"Bath Time!"

These were taken after the weekly shower :)

(top to bottom): Pepo, Oscar, Harry and Lady (right) take full advantage of the big fan to dry off.

And this is Kyzer, looking oh so cute. The one under the table is Angel, she's camera shy! And the resident elderly, Lucky is chilling on the bed.

Oh the Miss Lady - she would have you think we tortured her in to the bath!

All smiles now! Everyone is clean and happy - i know i am!

All the Little Ones

This is Tobi and he's grown into a big boy! :) But he's a good boy. He will still give a squeak when he's super happy and excited! And he learnt to be a big brother to...

... Wei Wei! He's a splitting image of Tobi when Tobi was younger. And they share the same personality and playfulness too! Happy and bouncy all the time. Tobi had his hands full :P

And this is tiny Rosebud. What a sweet name! And yes she is very very very tiny. She can squeeze through the baby gate type of tiny. Without any effort at all! I would describe Rosebud like a darting fish... just when you think you get close enough to get to her, ZIP! And she's out of reach.

So we had a group of small ones this time - they are a fun bunch to watch. Just be careful not to trip or squash anyone!

Rosebud: "We're the same size!"

Wei Wei: "No, you're smaller."

Rosebud: "Not if i do this! Hee..."

Wei Wei: "???"
