Scallop VS Baby Gate

4am in the morning... weather was pretty cool so we didn't switched on the air conditioner. Dreamt that Scallop was whining again... suddenly wife woke me up saying Scallop IS physically at the bedroom entrance whining!!! Wa piang! It wasn't a dream!
Put on my glasses and saw him sitting right by the entrance of the MBR and looking at us with his head tilted to one side... Investigations started to survey what mischief he had committed; the usual pee and poo poo found right by the baby gate outside the kitchen entrance. It's as if he's telling the gate : "See?! I pawned you! Have a taste of my pee and poo!"

Now the thing is, I definitely remembered putting him into his play pen the night before leh! How the hell did he managed to get out?!

So we put him back and started our observations :

Damn! He's one smart doggie!!


Too bad for him though...

Wahahaha! Back to bed for us... unfortunately, he was really spiteful and whined and howled for a straight 15 minutes before grudgingly admitted defeat and left us with peace and quiet for us to continue with our sleep...

Bigger Playpen Area

Weather is turning cooler with rain everyday. Noticed Scallop curling up like a ball when he sleeps in those conditions and wonders if he's cold. He's also growing bigger, so we decided to expand his play pen and put in a cushion which he can sleep on and be cosy as and when required.
Visited Kiddy Palace and bought a Lucky Baby Smart System Swing Back Gate (S$59) with 18cm extension (S$20) so we can extend his play area to the entrance of the kitchen.




Scallop doesn't seem very happy with the new thick white metal bars





With the increase of floor area to his home, the old position of the camera above the kitchen entrance was unable to cover the new area. As such, we have to relocate the camera to the top of the toilet entrance.
As usual, Scallop came to kaypo while the picture was being taken.



Check out his new place!

Rabbit?

Bought ping pong balls during lunch time for Scallop.



And while playing with one of the balls, Scallop learnt how to perform leopard crawl!

Scallop & Yellow Teddy

Weekend burnt due to ACTA course...

Introduced Scallop to Yellow Teddy on Friday night as a treat after he survived yet another torturous bath. It has effectively taken over the 'bottle-with-pebbles-in-a-sock' as his favourite toy.

A Typical Morning

Public holiday! Can afford to have a long blog entry :

Waky waky at 5.30am. Rain or shine, whether it's a weekday, weekend or a public holiday, it doesn't make a diff...



Our greetings on a good day. Pee and poo all contained within the pee tray, kitchen tiles totally stain-free. Good job Scallop! Pls try not to step on your poo next time though...



Scallop most eager to greet us in the mornings.



After clearing the pee tray and changing the newspapers, the next chore will be to sanitise and wash all items of clothing, be it toys, bedding, chewing material, etc.



Next the proper toys: home-made, brand new from shops, 2nd-hand, etc.



Warm water for Scallop's morning body wipe.






Immediately drying him with soft microfibre cloth.




Locked him in the crate so the floor can be sanitised peacefully, else he will be totally in the way trying to chase after the mop and falling over miserably every time.



Breakfast! 30grams of dry Fish4Dogs puppy kibbles plus half a teaspoon of MC Sheen UM Oil.




Waste no time gobbling up every single bit.









Next, brush teeth, clean mouth, and followed by a general brush through





Playtime!





Thirsty liaoz.



Continue play








Time to leave him alone



Pretty soon, he'll go to sleep






The hair under his paws seem kinda long...




Took the opportunity to give him a trim, wanted to cut his nails as well, but he was getting impatient, maybe later in the day then...
