It's a Dog's Life !

 

Bobby, my neighbour Irin's precious pet

 

People smiled when they saw cute Bobby in a pram!

My neighbour, Irin, loves dogs. We get along very well, as we are both crazy dog lovers! I guess, Irin, must be delighted to find someone who can help her "dogsit" Bobby when she travels overseas. On my part, I am delighted to have a neighbour who loves dogs. Ever since my three precious dogs, Kamlette, Kambobo and Kam Xiao Bai passed away, I no longer keep a dog as a pet. However, whenever I see a dog on the street, I would be sure to pat it, regardless of its size. Unless the owner or maid tells me the dog is ferocious or temperamental, I would be sure to touch the canine.

Recently Irin and I wanted to walk to the Pek Kio Community Centre where Alice Lim and her group and friends were giving away foodstuff to residents living in 2 and 3 room HDB flats. Generous Alice had done it again! For her, it has been an annual affair for almost the past eight years! Irin asked if we could bring her Shih Tzu, Bobby along. As it is about 15 minutes walk, she decided to put Bobby on a pram left behind by her previous tenant, Pandiyan. Bobby was somewhat excited when put on the pram for the first time. However, Bobby balanced himself quite well. As we pushed the pram along, he seemed to be smiling and enjoying himself.

Passers-by would smile, for Bobby looked really cute, almost like a baby, albeit a four-legged one! Truly, it's a dog's life!
