Door Art

DESIGNER DOOR

Finally found something for our plain white door that matches
the concept of our humble home ..
The best part is that it is nice & easy to use..
All I need to do is to peel off the backing of the sticker & apply in to the desired location.

Our Bedroom Door before the transformation
Bit by Bit, I placed the self-adhesive design pieces on the door surface.

I reckon it looks GREAT!

Ta Da!! DESIGNER DOOR..


all less than $25 AUD..

Love the design..
HOME SWEET HOME

When Foxie Meet Happy

We Brought Foxie to a home visit!!
We wondered how he would react meeting with another dog.. we thought it was time for him to make more friends.. & seriously hoped he would not be bullied due to his tiny frame.
Let's see what happened when He met Happy ( a 10 yr old Female Silky Terrier ).

Foxie gave Chase.. He couldn't wait to Say "hello"

Happy is a little distressed.. as Foxie is just too friendly.. She jumped up onto the couch as that was her only escape from Foxie the cheeky boy..

Foxie:" Let me Smell your POoPOo..."

Foxie" I wanna use your long fur to floss my teeth too... How nice!"

The running around went on for about 1 hr or so..

Foxie then took Happy's chicken treat as she had then lost her appetite..

He went on to chew on Happy's favourite chew toy bone..
After which, he finally relaxed...

Happy watching Foxie from behind as he was soundly asleep..


Happy:" I think I'll prefer to get near Him when he is asleep..."

Rest well Foxie little boy.. after all the activities..

We will visit Happy again!!

Mommy & Daddy are glad that you are one friendly & sociable Pup ..

Don't think that you are going to be intimidated by other dogs despite your compact size..

Learning to walk..

Foxie is learning some tricks.. he is having a puppy day care at home!!
He had learnt to SIT.. Now he is learning to STAND & WALK with his hind legs

Foxie:" Mommy, do I look funny?" Foxie: "Daddy, I'm enjoying myself.. See how I can walk so fast." Foxie loves to do Tricks cos he receives so many yummy treats!!!

Cheeky Boy

Cheeky Foxie loves to chew...
He is teething at the moment.. whatever he can find, he will surely have a taste of it...
He has been such a lucky pup.. he has only been with us for 2 weeks but has already met 3 of my buddies from SQ!

Foxie has got lady luck.. What a charming little pup!

Why do Dogs Bark & what it means?

Today marks the 1st day that Foxie barks!
so, I thought to figure out what he is trying to say..

Went into some pets & dogs website.. & this is what I gathered...

Continuous and slow barking, at a low pitch:
The intruder or danger is close. Prepared to defend itself.

Continuous and fast barking, at a medium pitch:
Alert. Trouble. Someone entering our territory.


Fast barking with pauses every 3 or 4:
Warning of a problem approaching. Asking you to investigate.

One or two short high pitched barks:
The most normal greeting.

Long and drawn-out barks at a high pitch, with pauses between each one:
I'm alone and need company.


One bark normal pitch:
Curious, alert.


Short back in a high pitch:
Shows surprise. If it's repeated twice it means "Look at this!" Many dogs use this when they want to go out.

Brief bark, at medium pitch:

Happiness.

Faltering bark at medium pitch:
Asking to play.

Howl or short bark at a high pitch:
"Ouch!" Response to sudden pain.
Repeated howls and regular intervals:
Suffering from extreme pain or something that scares them.

High pitch or urgent barks that sound desperate, without apparent reason: It is a way some dogs use to let out steam.

After my little research I think Foxie is saying: " I'm very alert & you'd better keep me company!!!"

It shall be Christmas for Foxie everyday!
