Sam tested: QuickGrab

We've reviewed treats and services, but certainly not poop bags.
Hence, when Auntie Sue Ann dropped Mummy an email about reviewing QuickGrab Fragranced Dog Litter Disposal Bags, she just couldn't say no!
#mummyisacheapola #anythingfreeshealsowant
I guess it's always fun to try something different out.
#ifyougiveusfreecupcakeswewillreviewANYTHING
As a pup, I used to have a habit of eating poop. 
Not my own poop, but other dog's. 
And I loved mine fresh out of the 'oven'.
I actually ran to a pooping Doberman and stood behind his butt to catch the fresh bake that was coming out of the 'tap'.

#theystilldontallowme
Of course, Mummy wasn't impressed a bit. Plus, she even earned the title of poop picker by her friends as the first thing she would do when she entered any dog runs was to pick up lying piles.
I guess this was when she developed a preference for good poop bags and is really particular about them.
She used to use Dogs on Board poop bags and recently switched to Earth Rated Poop Bags.
Like me, they are flown from America and are of really good quality.

While Mummy was initially a little skeptical about the QuickGrab bags, she decided to give it a try anyway.

Time to put it to the test.

Sam tested: Ohiyo Pets

We were very honoured to be invited by Auntie QY to test out a basic grooming session at Ohiyo Pets.
And seriously, the invite couldn't come at a better time. 
We were a week away from our family photoshoot and cheapo Mummy was just about to groom us herself.
#lifesaver 
So, thank you Ohiyo Pets for this timely invitation!!
#cannotimaginehowwewilllookifmummygroomedusherself #disasterevaded #phew

"Oi, some privacy please?"
#stupidmummy
Opened in May this year, Ohiyo Pets is located at 3 South Buona Vista Road (around Pasir Panjang). While the decor isn't overly elaborated, we definitely like how clean and neat the place is!

While the cleanliness of a grooming salon is an important factor, what matters even more to Mummy was that she got to stay throughout the grooming session. 
In fact, it's really something pet parents should do at each new grooming place!
Not only does it help to calm your furkids down, you can even start snapping Instagram-worthy pictures!

After we got cleaned and clipped, we were sent to the tub for our baths.
#samnolike
Cheeky ah ma absolutely enjoying her scrub down.
#pleasescrubharder
Ohiyo Pets blend their own shampoo!
Today's flavour is.. Maracuja.
#ataswordforpassionfruitla
I is no fan of baths, hence my face.
#mylifesucks
We were also very honoured to be the first two lucky pooches to try out their Nano Bubble Spa.
Well, ah ma was the first la.
I was quite worried that they were gonna put me in the tub that ah ma soaked in.
Thankfully, they emptied and refill the tub just for me.
In fact, they do that for every single customer, so you need not worry about sharing dirty water.
#hengah #idontwanttobatheinsmellyahmawater
Not only was the bubble spa really comfy, it helps to infiltrate the pores of the skin by removing dirt, impurities, bacteria from the pores while cleansing the skin.
Apparently it also rids dog odours and keeps the pooch smelling fresher for longer!
#ahmareallyneedsthis
Next up,
blow drying!
The sparkingly clean Pecan.
Doesn't she just look so cuddly and fluffy?
#fakeonehor
Now, my turn.
"Yeah, please scratch that itch for me ya."
#shiokface
Ta da~
Clean and extremely adorable.
#whysogoodlookinghuh
Mummy went home with two sweet-smelling dogs while we went home with deliciously goodies from Animals Kitchen.
So, Mummy happy, 
we happy, 
everybody happy.
#itisahappyday
We really enjoyed our grooming sessions at Ohiyo Pets and with our paws up, we definitely would recommend it to you!
Best of all, transport service is available for just an additional $10! 
#soreasonable

Mummy's note: I really like how comfortable QY and Shane were with Sam and Pecan! I guess it always amazed me how groomers can clip the nails and clean the ears of these two wiggly rascals. And they did just that. Easy breezy somemore. Shame on me man. The dogs also went home smelling fresh for a loooong time. Another bonus! Of course, they looked perfect at our photoshoot. But again, I'm biased. =P

Sam @ School

I recently started Day School at Puppy Colours.
To no one's surprise, I earned the rank of a troublemaker after just one day.
I guess they don't call us Jack Rascals or Jack Russell Terrors for nothing.
#iamsuchanangelwhytheysayinaughty

Blending in like a boss.
Can't tell that it's only my second day at school huh?
#Iisanatural #highEQislikethatone
Sam, the school troublemaker. 
One look at my adorable naughty face and you will know why I am able to earn this honourable title so effortlessly.
#whygotdogsocuteone #yayasam #fiftyfacesofsam
I may be the oldest kid in school, but I definitely ain't the best behaved.
But oh well, they still adore me to bits.

Can't wait to head back next week,

Our family photoshoot

While our parents ain't really the phototaking/selfie kinda people, Mummy insists on a family photoshoot tradition. 
This means that with the addition of a new family member, there must be a photoshoot.
When our parents got hitched, they did one.
When they got the absolutely adorable world cutest me, we did one in NYC.
So now that we've ah ma, it's time for yet another one.
#musthurrydobeforeahmaXXX #choy

Mummy and Daddy hired Uncle Terry from One Eye Click for their pre-wedding and actual day shoot. She was so pleased with the experience that she knew instantly that she wanted Terry to photograph our future milestones. 
In fact, she was super tempted to fly him to NYC for our shoot there. Of course stingy Daddy put a stop to it.
#mustprotecthisownpocketma
Instead, Mummy found an amazing photographer, Auntie Melissa to do it.
But now that we're back in the little Red Dot, there was no doubt that Uncle Terry had to be the guy!

So six years and two furkids later, 
here goes...
#noneedlovela #twodogsenoughliao
Mummy was contemplating if she should include our favourite activity, swimming for the shoot. 
But since we look like rats when we are wet, she decided to axe that idea.
Instead, we settled by including our swimming toys in the shoot!
Anyone want my pawtograph??
#yaya
Not salt and pepper hor.
It's Sam and Pecan.
#slapchuifyoudon'tknowbynow

#ourbellieswerepleased
The three hour photoshoot went by so quickly la.
By the end of the shoot, Pecan ah ma was so so so exhausted. 
#ahmaishamalor #nostaminasiah #shesleptforthenexttwodays

And within a week, we got mail!
Woohoo~
Thank you Uncle Terry and Auntie Ginos for the wonderful shots.
You definitely made the most important person in our lives very happy.
#mummyhasbeengrinningforthepastfewhours #abitscaryleh #shelooksspastic

We even heard Mummy telling Uncle Terry that we'll come knocking on his door when number three arrives.
Say what?~
