Kimmy Our Little Shih-Poo (Shitzu Poodle Mix)

Last Sunday, my SIL brought our adorable bunso to a grooming salon in Tiendesitas to get a "Summer Haircut". And this is how she looks like when she came back home. I almost did not recognize her.

 Kimmy, the Shih-Poo

Her poodle genes reflected on her soft and smooth hair. The new haircut actually has done some pretty good things to her. For one, she is not shy anymore. Actually, when this photo was taken, she was the one who approached me which seldom never happens. Pre- "summer haircut", it was also really hard to take a photo of her but look at her now ; )

Precious Dog: Crazy Dog Green Apple Grooming Spray

My dog, Precious, is a pomeranian. How many of you have poms as dogs? Sure, these dogs are cute and cuddly but come combing time, their fur is really hard to comb, right? I don't know about you but I don't let other people give Precious a bath. Only family members can give her a bath because she gets really stressed out. Adding more stress is the combing part of the process. 

Once, when she was about a year old, DH and I brought her to a grooming salon for cut and shampoo. The salon needed to sedate her to calm her down. After that incident, I never took her anywhere near a grooming salon. 

Green Apple Grooming Spray for dogs 237 ml (8 fl. oz.) PhP345

Anyway, my SIL bought Crazy Dog Green Apple Grooming Spray for Precious. It works wonders and cuts our drying and combing time into half. What's even better? She doesn't get stressed or angry anymore!

Bath Time for Precious!

I admit I seldom bathe Precious these days. Why? because she gets angry every time! And you don't want to see her get angry hehe

And even when wet, she still looks straight in the camera always ready for a pose!

Purina Beggin' Strips

Late last year my mom got a phone call asking if she has a dog. She remembered my Pomeranian, Precious!

She was asked a few questions about what her diet is like. What she wants and doesn't want to eat. Surely, my mom knows Precious' wants and needs. She is always with me when I bought her treats and dog food. I gave Precious the best ; ) Plus, my mom keeps treats in her house too!

And then a few days after Christmas, my mom got a Nestle Purina Package! Inside the cute cylinder is Precious' favorite treat Purina Beggin' Strips and a certificate for being the World's Greatest Dog!

This is so cute and I just have to get a photo. Precious, like her mom, sure knows how to pose!

Precious has an upset stomach!

DH is jealous that Precious gets to eat all the tarragon and stavia leaves that she wants while he was not able to taste a leaf of my plants. Tarragon leaves can be used as tea leaves while stavia can be a sugar substitute for your coffee drink.

Home Improvement: Turning wine bottle into flower vase

We attended the wedding of DH's cousin last Sunday, July 11, 2010. So many bottle of wines were left over. I thought that maybe the waiters will just be throwing them away.  I collected a few, washed and removed the labels and voila! I turned the empty bottles of wine into vases! After all why throw away a AUD300 bottle of wine lol
