This morning after breakfast I was still feeling a little peckish, as usual. I decided to follow the scent of dog food coming from the back of the house. Of course I know where Susan keeps my food, and I also know I can’t get to it. But it never hurts to check once in…

Kung hei fat choy! I’ve had a very nice Chinese New Year. Since some time now, two handsome young boys are living with us and during CNY weekend an 8th months old girl came to stay with us too. The girl was so excited to meet us all, that we all ran around in the garden…

One morning Susan brought another dog to our house. Of course this happened before, but this time it was different. It was still dark outside and I was sleeping! I was so startled and surprised, I got a bit grumpy. Well, I am not a morning person! But Susan immediately took us both for a walk…

Susan & I always like to go and explore new paths in the Mui Wo area. You would think, after more than a year, we’d been everywhere. Not! Apparently there is a whole section to be discovered: Butterfly Hill. This hill lies in the middle of the Mui Wo valley and is basically covered with…

During the holidays we had to go to Stanley to get some furniture. Susan thought it was very funny there was an actual “dog parking” there. I was not amused. I did not want to resemble a parked car and moped as far away from the sign as possible. Luckily they did not leave me…

It’s very cold outside. For Hong Kong standards, that is: about 10 degrees. A lot of people have been asking Susan why I’m not wearing a dog coat. Many dogs in Hong Kong wear them! But I really don’t like anything on my body, except for a collar (or hands massaging me)! I even still…

Susan always likes to take me to new places, so I can smell new scents and get used to many different situations. I’ve been to the New Territories and Hong Kong Island, but I had never been to Kowloon! So when Susan and husband drove to Tsim Sha Tsui to pick up some friends and…

Well, after my birthday things didn’t exactly calm down. First of all the humans decided to celebrate Sinterklaas, which is the Dutch (and according to Susan better) Santa Claus. We got some packages with Dutch treats and gifts in the mail! Susan hid the packages but of course I could not be fooled and soon…

Yesterday was my birthday! I turned 4 already. The day started pretty great, Susan took me on a nice hike in the mountains. When we got home we all had breakfast and after that Susan and husband started running around in a very suspicious way. I can always tell when something bad is going to…

Every now and then I hear and smell that very suspicious things are going on, close to our house. Of course, I immediately try to find out what’s happening. Even if I’m on the roof, I simply must know what’s down there! If it’s late afternoon, chances are the Mui Wo cow herd is passing…
