The Special Day for Bobby - 12 September 2008

This will be the day that Bobby will start his new life with M&D. We have confirmed this date to be suitable, since M&D will be back from their trip that week and D will be off on the weekends and M off on Monday & Tuesday..they both felt that they need to spend more time with him since Bobby will be at a new environment..they are really thoughtful pple..

Have been in touch with M over emails on the items to get for bobby for his arrival..and through the email correspond I am sure Bobby have found great owners that will dote on him :)

Bobby Boy - I hope you be happy with this arrangement. I am sure you will! Things might be confusing for intial start but I am sure you will do just fine and adjust to your new home..I hope you will enjoy your life from then onwards, be loved, be cared for and most importantly be the happy Bobby that I knew from the start...I have enjoyed myself for the past 2 months hanging out with you and I must say you have been the cutest and good boy I have met so far...you have touched my life and will continue to do so..I will definately visit you and bring you out often...Love you my dearest Bobby Boy :)

Bobby's starting his new life soon...

It's been a quiet week.."thanks" to the wet weather, I wasnt able to bring bobby out on the weekends...anyway would like to thank all of you for the well wishes and concern..we are preparing for bobby's move into his new home and his adopters are really excited about him going over and they too are preparing all the necessary stuffs for him when he shifts over on the 2nd week of september :)

Many were asking what if Bobby's adopter decided to go back UK for good then what will happen to him? Don't worry, I have actually checked this with his adopters and they would be more than glad to bring him back along with them..they treat him like part of their family..and i believe they will do their best to keep him by their side...

All is going well..am trying to spend more time with bobby before he goes to his new home :)

I think Bobby has found that special someone....

Yes, yesterday the viewing turned out really better than I had expected...both of them M & D were really happy with Bobby and we even brought him out for a walk.. or should i say Bobby brought us out for a walk..because halfway through we almost lost our way...

I feel that both M & D are genuine adopters and they will definately provide Bobby with a great home...and I am sure Bobby will have a great life ahead with both of them :)

Bobby will still be at the foster home till M & D come back from their holidays which will be anytime on the week of 8 sept 2008. That will be the day Bobby can have a home that belongs to him :) Someone to love him for the rest of his life...

I feel blessed to be given the chance and to have met bobby (he has a very special place in my heart even though he is going to a new home soon) and even happier to know that he will have a home sweet home very soon - a place where he will live the rest of his life in, a place where he will exprience love & happiness, a place where he will learn n grow and forget all the unhappy past that had happened to him...This is the day all of us including bobby have been waiting for...I hope that when he goes over to his new home i will still have the chance to bring him out once in a while...

What worries me now would be Bobby's first few days at his new home..He will definately be a little wary and scared..and of course i forsee that he will refuse to eat for a few days..but i m sure he will get over it very soon..i hope :)

I am gona miss every bit of bobby...but i know he will be happy..and i will still have the chance to visit him too :)

Btw, I will still continue to update about bobby even after he goes to his new home :)

Lost Brown Mongrel at Holland Close / Village <>

Received an email from Noah's Ark about a missing mongrel, so thought can help to pass the word around.

Photobucket

Mongrel / Local Cross Breed
Gender: Female (sterilized)
Microchip No : **********05345
Name: Louis (She is extremely friendly and likes humans)
Last seen: On the evening of August 17, 2008 around Holland Road / Holland Village.
Contact: Lynda 91996247 or Fiona 98391308


Side Note: Tonight the couple will be coming to view Bobby. Am getting so excited for Bobby. Cant describe the feeling. The feeling is just like getting so excited when i went on the very first date in my life(which happened years ago during my teenage years), an excited feeling where you are not sure whether the date will go on fine? Whether the guy you are dating will enjoy the date?

For this case, its a happy feeling to know that someone out there is willing to give bobby a chance by coming to see him (just like the feeling of being dated out by guy u had a crush on)..many questions in my mind. Whether the viewing will go fine? (Whether the date will go on fine?) Whether bobby will behave himself? (Whether i will look ok when i go on the date?) Whether the potential adopters will take a liking for Bobby? (Whether my crush will take a liking for me?) So many questions in my mind now, with the hope that bobby will find a great home (With the hope of being accepted by the guy and to date again)....

Updates about the weekends....

As planned...I had a great rest this weekend...Sat was spent with my 2 furkids...just hanging ard playing and had a long long walk too...yesterday brought bobby to M&M for a short half an hr swim at the pool...I think he's kinda hates the pool so I had to drag him into the pool and ended getting myself all wet... :S Bobby looks kinda cute when he swim...he tries to swim very very fast in hope that he can quickly get out of the pool...he would much prefer to hang ard with dogs at M&M I think....

After the swimming session, brought him over to petsmover to buy some dog stuffs and also let bobby run about at the dog run...we spent about an hr there...coz it was gona rain so had to cut short the outing....but i am sure he enjoyed himself swimming....

Side Note: I think the whole Singapore would have known by now that Singapore has won a silver medal in the olympics after 48 yrs of wait...I managed to watch the match and i must say they put on a gd fight but just that china is a stronger team...nonetheless i am proud that at least they made it to the top three. 3 Cheers for them :)

The Bf is almost done with reservist...so as of yesterday we had an official return-of-car-key ceremony..just kidding...i meant that i returned his car back to him and now i am back to squeezing like sardines on the MRT to and fro from work...at least i had the privilege to drive the car the whole of last week while he is at reservist...it was quite fun and of coz it saves alot of time & is convenient. But it eventually made be become a lazy woman the whole of last week....i drove the car even whem i was going sumwhere like 5-10mins walk away :)..well i guess that's a new driver's behaviour - to drive as and when possible even when it's within walking distance..Bye Suzuki sx4...im gona miss drivin u :)

Updates on Bobby & plans....

Well weekend is drawing near...many things to do...

Sat - Will be pirate's & ger ger's day. Also a day that they hate...coz they know that I will be bathing them every sat..hehe..they hate water to the core..when they noe it's time to bathe, they will run away and I would have to drag them to the waterpipe to bathe..Bathing them is as good as bathing myself..I am totally drenched after bathing them...

Also, I haven had the chance to really spend time with them recently, due to work and bobby. Kinda feeling bad about it. So I shall declare Saturday - My furkid's day :)

Sunday - Will be bringing bobby out and meet a fren (with her golden). Let them play and interact. Am also thinking of bring him for swim..he kinda enjoy taking dips in the water and swimming. Afterwhich, if there's time may bring bobby to the west to visit the uncle who is missing bobby so much :) Also, there will be another potential adopter coming to visit bobby...

Tuesday - A cuple from UK is keen to adopt bobby, and we will be meeting at foster place at night for them to see bobby. Hopefully things will turn out well..

I hope i can see bobby go to a new home soon.. Not that it's a hassle taking care of him or netiher am i lazy to bring him out..but i would love to see him live in a home of his own..to have a family that loves him and give him the 100% love n care that he deserves :) Wish Bobby luck!

Bobby and his viewing...

Yesterday one of a forum fren & her fren came down to bobby's foster home to see him...her fren wanted to adopt a dog to accompany his dad..luckily bobby boy behaved himself well...he would definately be a great companion for the elderly....bobby is one independent boy..he can be home alone - just give him his toys (he super love to play with his squeeky toys and soft toys, he loves to play fetch with anyone) & a knotted bone...he will be contented...he can play with the toy n chew on the bone the whole day through....

He is also gd on leash (though his recall skill is not gd) but at least he does great on leash...he waits for you to move before he does...he doesn't tug on leash...he will make an ideal companion for human being...he actually much prefer human companion...

He may be 3-4yrs old but he is a little puppy at heart...he is contented with every / anything..he doesnt ask for much but just a home with a great owner to love him...

We shall wait and see if the potential adopter is keen to take him in :) keeping my fingers crossed....

A side note:
I drove my bf's car all the way from Jurong to Bedok and back to Jurong yesterday...it's my first time driving alone and on such a long journey driving along the busy expressway..it's kinda scary but yet exciting...thank goodness I made me way home safely...but i do have a problem with parking because all my parking were done with poles when i was learning...now that there's no longer poles available for parking..i always pray that i will find empty parking lots (at least 2-3 slots with no car), then i park at least hehe....

Busy at work...

It has been a busy week at work...very draining...thus didn't have the chance to update the blog...

Some updates on Bobby:
He is as usual the happy Bobby happily hopping ard at the foster home :) Have a potential adopter interested to see him coming Monday evening. Hope all goes well for him...I really have no idea where to house him if no one adopts him :( I really hope he can find a gd home soon..

Updates on Mary & Cherry
Both still at the keneel. Rescuer contemplating to switch them to a better kennel where they would have better care and more room to roam. With the tight budget we have now Mary & Cherry has no choice but to stay at the current kennel. Seriously the cleanliness and care in the current kennel is really not ideal. The space they have is really very limited and with us working they wont be able to get their walk everyday too..It's sad to see them at the current kennel now...Hope rescuer will be able to find a better kennel soon...

Since I gotten my license on Monday, I haven't had the chance to drive yet. Hopeing that my bf will be able to book out from reservist today so that i can drive his car :) I am sure going to be nervous but yet excited :)

I hope everyone will have a great weekend, including myself... Have yet to plan where to bring bobby to this weekend..Have ran out of ideas already..Any suggestions are welcome :)

I simply love this quote...it's meaningful...

A dog is your friend, your partner, your defender.
You are his life, his love, his leader.
He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.
You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion...

Yes I did it!

Yes, I managed to pass my driving test but not with flying colours though. But at least I passed with a "HIGH" score of 18 :). So I am a qualified driver as of yesterday and I am ready to be on the road..Becareful all drivers out there Hahaha..

So here's a summary of how I chalked up a total of 18 points:
4pts: Change Lane Abruptly
8 pts: Not enough side clearance given to other road users
2 pts: Sharp turn
4 pts: Fail to check blind spot

Seems like I am not such a dangerous driver right?

I had a warm up lesson with my instructor in the circuit just before my test. I was toally nervous and couldn't drive like i used to.. I couldn't turn properly, couldn't park properly and all. My instructor was scolding me and said that with this driving technique i sure can't pass my test later on..Upon hearing that, I totally lost my morale...

But thankfully, the tester was nice and he managed to calm me down and I drove as per normal and wan't nervous at all...Thank goodness for that...I got route 9 for my test which I didn't even know which route was tat as my instructor never told me about this..but i heard route 9 is a easy route for test..which turned out everything was completed smoothly...

Am glad i managed to pass my test on the first attempt. So means, next time i can drive ard and bring pirate & gerger out more often ON MY OWN :)

NDW 2008

Bobby went to the NDW today along with Bobby's foster and their 2 CHHs :) It was really warm and humid today and in the end we only managed to register for the dogwalk but ended up we didnt join in the walk but only hang ard at the dogrun area where they have some competition going on..

I am sure bobby boy enjoyed himself, esp since he had the opportunity to sniff all the doggies butts :) Sadly, we didnt win any prizes from the lucky draw but well that wasnt our main purpose of joining this dogwalk, but rather more for a gd cause as the donations will go to Noahs Ark aka NANAs.

Come to think of it, I brought buddy to NDW 2007 and soon after he got adopted. And now, NDW 2008, I brought along Bobby. Will bobby have the same luck as buddy boy too? I wish, i pray and i hope he will have such gd luck too :)

Some friends where jokingly saying that all my rescued dogs looks the same, last year NDW was buddy, this year is bobby, what about next yr? Another buddy & bobby look alike dog too? I really hope not, i hope that i will be able to bring my pirate and gerger next yr (havent had the chance to bring them to such events)

Some pictures of bobby at the NDW 2008. Anyway, he is still up for adoption..Upzz...
