Hello everyone! It's been a while since I have written. Ma ma has been busy with her career decision and hasn't been logging on for me to write at all in the past month or so. Not that she hasn't taken me out for walkies! In fact, she takes me out for walkies almost every morning during the week. The weekends have been generally sunny so we have been going out for longer walkies on Saturdays and Sundays.
Take last weekend for example - because of China's National Day, we had a long weekend and I got to see Ma ma at home 3 days in a row! On Saturday, I refused to walk up the stairs so Ma ma took me up to Braemar Hill via the long way round (up Tin Hau Temple Road, then Braemar Hill Road) and it was a very tiring walk. I threw a tantrum on the way back (after my toast breakfast at Cafe R&B), and refused to walk downhill. Ma ma didn't give in though. She threatened to leave me there so I followed her downhill reluctantly. When we go down to Lotus Temple, I ran down the stairs at 10 miles per hour and sped into the park. Ma ma lost sight of me altogether, and was quite embarassed when a stranger (see-lai) walked by and said: "Oh you must be the owner of that dog! Thank god, I thought the dog was lost". Ma ma replied and said "Yes thanks. That dog isn't lost, she ran into the park - that's where she's headed...."
Of course, Ma ma found me loitering in the park, sniffing around, and trying to dodge her stern face when she finally caught up with me.
Oh did I mention that I also scared the hell out of Ma ma over the weekend when I ran UP the stairs at 10miles per hour and ran into the middle of the road to say 'hello' to another dog? I normally behave well and wait for Ma ma at the top of the stairs. Even though Ma ma's legs are long, I beat her up the stairs ever time! When I got to the top of the stairs, I saw a dog on the opposite side of the road. The dog walked half-way (i.e., to the middle of the road) so I thought I should be courteous and meet him half-way. Ma ma was of course furious (but scared!) when she saw me greeting another dog in the middle of the road. She mumbled (fairly loudly) to the other owner that he should have had more sense than to let his dog wander to the middle of the road.... Which is true too, cos I certainly wouldn't have walked into the middle of the road if this other dog hadn't been allowed over in the first place. Though having said that, I think that was probably the last time which Ma ma will let me off leash to walk up those stairs again.

Happy Birthday, Gung Gung!!!

First of all - Happy Birthday, Gung Gung!!! We love you!!! (from Buffy, CC and Ma ma)
Ma ma seems to be suffering from some pretty serious period syndromes. She was nauseous yesterday and had migraine on both days... poor Ma ma. The only good thing is of course - we get to see Ma ma at HOME on a weekday. Whoopee!!
Ma ma said Jessie is a 'sky-choi' (genius) as she managed to empty our place of anything edible except for dog food. Ma ma wanted to take some pain killers for her migraine today but she could not take it on empty stomach. She searched and searched and searched and there was absolutely nothing she could eat. She had to wait till Jessie was home from her LONG grocery shopping trip and asked her to go out and get her something. If Ma ma trusts me, I could have taken the walk myself and got her some food.... of course I would tax her. No free lunch!
Ma ma took some photos of us tonight.

LOTS of new photos!
Wow, it's been a very long time since I have written! Ma ma has been lazy has hasn't been switching on her home PC much.
Here are lots of photos. The ones taken today (Sunday) are on the top of the list. If you look closely enough, you will see that I have a new leash on in the photos today. In fact, this is the same pattern as the leash ma ma got me when I was only 6 months old. Jessie threw it away by mistake when we moved homes recently to Tai Hang. The company has stopped producing this pattern a year ago, and ma ma had to beg them to hand-make one for me. I sometimes wonder how ma ma manages to get away with these types of requests...! (The amazing thing was that this company did not charge her extra for this special order)
Ma ma took me and CC out to the usual route this morning. We got up a bit later because it rained the night before and the ground was still wet at 6:30am. So we waited till 8ish to head out. When we got to the stairs leading up to Lai Tak Tsuen, I didn't feel like walking and decided to stand still. Ma ma gave up on me after 10mins and walked around another way instead. I won, I won! ha ha
Ma ma had a really bad migraine round about 4pm today and had to cancel her plan to go to yoga (AGAIN!). Instead she stayed home and we had a nap together. I snuggled up on my own couch at the end of ma ma 's bed and only got up at around 6pm when ma ma woke up to get a drink of water. I immediately took this opportunity to scratch ma ma and lead her to the red cabinet (where my food is kept!). I sat up straight in front of the red cabinet and looked eagerly at ma ma. Even though ma ma had a migraine, she was able to figure out what I was after within seconds. She said: "Ok, mum-mum lah!" and took our bowls out. I learned the word 'mum-mum' from Gung Gung so I knew this meant 'meal time' and ran into our crates at the speed of light.
The cat photo was also taken today. We walked past this stray cat on our way up to Braemar Hill this morning. It was a young kitten who displayed a phenomenal amount of interest in CC. It probably was wondering if CC was a cat too cos they were the same size. Ma ma quickly got her phone out and took a picture of the kitten lying there, staring at CC. Ma ma is very proud of this photo as she kept mumbling on about how the composition is great, the shawdow and lighting is just right and the overall mood was just PERFECT. She kept on mumbling how if she didn't have to work, she would become an animal photographer... yeah right ma ma!

Caught in the rain!

It rained very early morning today, so Ma ma and I went back to bed and slept till around 9am, to wait till the ground dries up a bit.
Unfortunately, it began raining before we got home! We all got caught in the rain!
Ma ma forgot to bring her phone today so she didn't take any photos of our outing today. To ensure she had a shot to upload on our blog, Ma ma went and took a picture of me - right before I was bathed.... I hate baths!

Buffy's Lookalike!
Buffy wrote:
Today is Saturday. Ma ma struggled to decide on whether to go to yoga this morning or take me for a walkie. I won. Ma ma got up and took me up for a quick walk up to Braemar Hill R&B Cafe. Ma ma said recently, a woman was robbed and killed when hiking on her own in Tsuen Wan so she needed to take more precaution. Only I got to go today because Ma ma didn't think she could handle both me and CC if something happened. CC always barks and attracts stray and leashed dogs... not something which Ma ma nor I like so we decided to leave her at home with Jessie.
You will see photos of me staring at a piece of toast on the side. There is also someone else in the photos that looks like me but Ma ma says is not as leng lui as me. :)
His name is Ball Ball - which kinda sound like a name that Ma ma sometimes calls me. Ma ma calls me lots of names - "Bee Bee" (as in Bup-Bee-Bee, which is my name in a song that Por Por sings), "Bee Bo" "Bee Bar" "Bee Ball" "Chu Chu"... the list goes on. Ma ma thinks he looks 80% like me, except Ball Ball's nose is longer.
Ma ma was very excited when she saw my lookalike. She asked Ball Ball's owners if they minded her taking a picture. Ball Ball's parents seem to like me too cos they kept on smiling at me.
Gotta go for a nap now - tired after my morning walk. Ma ma did not bathe me today - which means it's highly likely that I will get to go for a proper hike tomorrow!

Hello Everyone, I'm back!

I haven't been posting anything on the blog recently as I have been diagnosed with depression by Dr Lien. I have been worrying Ma ma greatly because I was not eating, and I just lay down all day long. Even when Ma ma took my CHOCOLATES out, I didn't budge. THAT got her really worried!
Ma ma has since paid lots of attention to me - she took Monday off work to nurse me and took me to see Dr Lien on Tuesday. I have been out on lots of walkies and hiked both yesterday and today! Though the price I had to pay was Ma ma bathed me on both days! Yuck!
You will see pictures from last week while I was out on my hike. Ma ma's back was aching today so she didn't take any photos for me and CC.

Sunny Saturday
Buffy wrote:
Today is the first sunny day out of the entire week! (Ma ma said tomorrow will be sunny as well) In fact, today's highest temperature is 37.7degree celcius!
Ma ma got up early this morning and took me and CC out for a hike. We walked up the long stairs to Lai Tak Chuen, then round Yee King Road and Cloud View Road up to Braemar Hill. We hiked around the hills on Sir Cecil's Ride trail, then down the hill to R&B cafe at Braemar Hill shopping centre. Ma ma ordered a toast breakfast set and shared 1/2 of her breakfast with me and CC. We walked for TWO hours today and we are so tired!!! In fact, me and CC went on strike on our way back down the hills. I stood firm under the shade and refused to move, while CC layed down on the ground under the trees and almost went to sleep.
After our morning hike, Ma ma went out with Dai yee ma and Ben Ben to see Ah Jie in Sham Shui Po. Ah Jie and her sister (Tsuen Jie) were both very happy to see Ma ma, Dai yee ma and Ben Ben. Ma ma has been a very good girl and was not tempted to eat any lychees. Ma ma is under Chinese doctor's prescription and is not allowed to eat anything cold or sweet. As for fruits, she is only allowed to eat apple and grapes.
Ma ma said we'll go to bed early tonight so that we can go for another hike tomorrow (Sunday) morning!
