An eventful car ride

A day of car ride with sis, mum & ting ting yesterday.
Intention was to send yong to sch for his remedial, and morning tea at chinatown.
We were planning to shop for shoes and a new tv set after that.
Ended up home with an unplan purchase.



It started when sis mentioned about her cheap bargains in bangkok,
and the cute doggies for sales in the weekend market.
And how much she wanted to buy it but not allowed to bring it back to sg.
The topic became more interesting and I became so tempted to own one again.
So I suggested going down to the pet shop in Simei after meal to have a look,
and crazy sis agreed so.



So many years since I last went and the pet safari has already shrink into a small shop.
We didn't stay long as the choices are limited.
Thought our dog hunting has come to an end,
until sis mentioned there are many pet shops in thomson.
We drove down without second thoughts and ended up in a shop.



We saw a terrier and it was so cuteeeee!
This is a terrier.


Mum said 'EEEEeee.. so black. can't see the eyes.'
Then mum pointed to another pup...
It is a corgi.
She said it looks more like a puppy, n it's cute.
I set my eyes on it and no deny, it does has the cute lil pup look.
I fall in love with it instantly too....
So did sis, though she still thinks the small black terrier is much cuter.
I told her that terrier is cute, but the cuteness might bored us in the long run.
Whereas the corgi has an unexplainable cutesy look. lol
So was the price difference.

The price of that terrier is $1950,
and $2400 for that corgi.
KAOZ so expensive I said.
The thought of buying disappeared instantly.
The boss of that shop intro corgi to us, and even brought it out for us to touch n feel...
It resembles the smaller version of golden retriever, my ideal dog -_-
He is only 4 months old. Still a baby =)



Mum noticed we were so hyper enthu in that puppy,
and asked 'not thinking of buying it now right?'
I gave her the sly smile..


And guessed what?
We bought it haha!!
Shared the cost with sis...



We brought home some of the necessities and took out some of the items in the store room that used to belong to BiBi.
And evening time, acc sis to fetch yong from school and drove straight to the pet shop to collect the puppy....
THey had showered and trimmed his nails before we reached...
We were so thrilled!!!!



But we were told to keep him inside the cage for 1 to 2 weeks, and cannot allow it to come out to play or sleep even for a few mins.
That is to train them to pee at the right place.
They said we have to endure for that 1 to 2 weeks or we would have a tough time training it when it grows.
They also taught us the amount of food to give, and their need for vitamins.
Even dogs need vitamins... healthy bo?


My 3rd time having a dog,
the previous 2 puppies were passed down by many other owners and their temper were either too crazy or quiet.
But he is the 1st dog that truly belongs and whom will grow up with us =)

Call him Jovial everybody.
It brings joy to my family and may it be a happy dog in my home too =)





sleeping like a baby.... oh-la-la...
