Snoopy going new home

Last Saturday, the "manja" king Snoopy left our home to his new owner. He also left us lot of "gold" to clean up in the morning.. (-.-") like he never go to toilet before.

Snoopy

We were happy that Snoopy got a dog lover owner. Darren, a friend of my dear. He is absolutely a doggie lover, even more enthusiastic than us. Can be seem from the way he treats Snoopy. Snoopy seem to be very happy at his new home. This fella needs plenty of attention and playtime, I think Darren has no problem with it.

Snoopy

We're not that sad this time. Since they are staying in Penang only. We shall visit them when we are free. While visiting Feipoh would be much inconvenient. I want to see how they look like when they are bigger.

Goodbye Feipoh

Puppies

Time flies, the Schnoodle puppies are 8 weeks old already, which meant it's time to go to new home. Last weekend so happened to be a long weekend, I arranged with my friend Sunny to meet up in Ipoh and send Feipoh to him.

Feipoh is the female puppy of Coffee. Since we are not sure what will be her name later, we just called her "feipoh", as she always bigger and heavier than Snoopy, the male pup. Besides, she likes to eat more than Snoopy too.

Farewell

She is such a naughty pup, likes to bite anything, but kinda clever in the sense of looking for newspaper for loo. And quite patience as she is pretty quiet when dealing with human. Unlike Snoopy, the male pup, who is rather "manja", panic and likes to get attention.. Obviously her characteristic is kinda like Coffee. While Snoopy is kinda like Komo.

Good bye

Though we have to clean up their mess many times a day, it was frustrated sometime. When come to the time to give away, it was so sad. I missed her and worried about her too. Hope she is happy with her new owner.

I wonder how am I gonna be a breeder when I retire..

Toilet Training for Puppies

Cute

Week 4, it's time to start toilet training and feeding puppy food.
Toilet training is an idea to let the puppies to understand the different between sleeping place and toilet area. So they don't mess up with the place to sleep. At the end, it will be easier for the future owner to train and wanna keep the dog indoor.

Toilet Training

We put the newspaper for them to do their business. We splitting their whole are into half. Half for the toilet area, half for sleeping and eating. Surprisingly they doing pretty good job without our guidance. Only a few times they had missed it so far. Probably Coffee did taught them secretly..

Yummy

Apparently that Coffee's milk supply seem like insufficient, as the duration she did the nursing is getting less and lesser. It was time to to give them the puppy food. As they don't have teeth now, so we blend the food first before feeding them. At first, they only take a little, now they are like going for crazy sales..

Puppies Learn to walk

Learning to walk

When the puppies was about 2 weeks old, I felt delight that the puppies had opened their eyes.
Now they are 3 weeks old, I felt delight again to see the puppies was trying to walk. Not so easy for them, because our floor is ceramic tiles, pretty slippery for them. Most of the time, they were just doing "moon walk" (reverse move). We put the a for them to learn to walk. Still they like to sleep on the tiles instead of rug.

Puppies

Coffee still nursing them and stimulate the puppies contractions and cleaning the mess. However, pretty soon they gonna eat puppy food. That's the time we have to start the paper toilet training.

Glad that there are 2 generous friends willing to adopt the puppies. =)

Schnoodle

Take a break from Bali trip posts..

New born puppy

What a accident happened to my Coffee and Komo, they just promoted to parent. Can't believe the "sampat" Coffee also can be a gentle mother. She just gave birth to 2 puppies (1 male and 1 female) on July 6.

I was surprised when I saw a black small creature crawling in Coffee's crate in the early morning before work. Later I took half day off to make sure Coffee deliver the rest of the puppies in her womb and help her up too. It was a unforgettable experience to witness the birth of puppies. How she brake and consume the membrane and placenta. How she bite off the umbilical cord of the puppies.

I wonder how the mixed bread of Miniature Schnauzer and Miniature Poodle when they grow up. We can't really see it now, because it just like other new born puppies. One thing I am sure is we are gonna be busy in next few weeks..

Bali Safari and Marine Park

Not even one of my friends who have been to Bali went to Bali Safari and Marine Park. Probably it's new or it didn't attracting them. However, we decide to give a try during our trip there.

The place is kinda new and clean. Some areas still not opened for visitors yet. Well the animals.. I would said not that many as expected. When we finished the tour, we overheard a boy said "binatang tak lengkap". I wonder what Safari he compared to..
For me, been to 3 Safari Park so far, the best I think is the Night Safari from S'pore.

Dirty Duck Diner at Ubud Bali

Ubud is a special place to visit, highly recommended. A small town that has no beach, but surround by paddy field with lots of handicraft shops. We just dropped by there for a short while, after the Kintamani trip. If you looking for those Balinese handicraft stuff, certainly you do not want to miss that town.

Shops at Ubud Street

Before going for dining, we walked around the market and the shops over there. Noticed that it's not easy to bargain with the seller in the market, unlike Bangkok.

Dirty Duck Diner


Dirty duck diner (Bebek Bengil) is one of the nicest restaurants that we visited in Bali, in term of decoration and food wise. So pleasant until I wanna lay down and sleep there for a while.

Dirty Duck Diner


The restaurant interior design is very Balinese style. From the seat to ceiling, even the background.

Next to Padi Field


The famous food in the menu is the Crispy Duck. Of course, we ordered one to try out. It's crispy and tasty but somehow a little bit dry.

Dirty Duck Menu


The other dish we ordered was pork ribs, we thought it taste better than the crispy duck. So juicy and the meat so tender. Definitely worth trying.
