:: Chessie got new toysie! ::

I left Chessie for a 5 days vacation and to ease his anger I got him a new plush toy. Not only he forgives us, he drag his new toy everywhere... Finally he got a proper toy! Brand new, not hand-me-down!

Say hi to Elmo! This absolutely precious and adorable pup belongs to my roomie. Elmo is a 2 yrs old shih-tzu who loves to ride on supermarket carts(and he's so cute, they let him in!!), eggs and snuggling. Chester haven't met him just yet, someday maybe?

.: Call Me Up 4 A Good Time :.

Are there any pretty shih-tzus out there willing to have a good time with me?

Chester peeking at visiting guests, desperately wants to join in the conversation.

He simply cannot part with his lovely pillow, he refused to sleep without it!

'Ookay, what's the deal with this box? WHY am I in this box??? I need to get away now, and faaast!!! Uh,oh, will it flip?'

:: some pics ::

He wakes up everyday at around 6AM, wakes everybody up by whining and scratching our bedcover (usually he jump onto my bed, walks back and forth on top of me and whines...), then he sleeps again until around 3PM ... he loves hugging the leg of the coffeetable while he sleeps during the day. At night, he will curl at his puffy blue pillow.

Come on, you cannot be a dog lover without having tons of pictures of your wuffly wuffly doggie... come on, you know who you are, proud owners!! :D

:: playing dress up ::

I know, I know ... dressing up dogs are sometimes a bit creepy, but I can't help it!! I just love how he looks like all dressed up! I only managed to get him into these two, (which are roomy so he complied). He absolutely hates t-shirts just like he hates his leash... I'm still looking forward to buy and make him more clothes! I bought this book on doggie fashion & clothing patterns, so we'll see what I'll come up with. Yay!

:: the arrival of Prince Chester ::

I just moved back to my home country after 5.5yrs living abroad, and found out that most of my friends are either married, or still living abroad. I felt a bit lonely, and I decided to got my self a furry companion. At first I settled on a Westie, but after I realized how yappy it is, I didn't go for it. Then I remember how my roommates and me used to pet-sit a very adorable shih-tzu named Snoopy. He was very loyal, quiet, shy and lovable. So I searched high and low for shih-tzu breeders in my town. At that time there are only two breeders known to have shih-tzu. I visited both of the kennels, but I didn't find what I'm looking for. All of them are extremely cute, but somehow they're busy playing with their peer, not reacting to us. The breeder told us to come back the next month, because he got several one months old puppies that'll be ready for viewing. I waited anxiously, and when the time came, I went to the kennel immediately. When I got there, I saw another batch of highly adorable puppies, and there was this one dog who approached us cheerfully, jumping and running around us. That's when I decided, this is the one. He seemed so happy in the car, but when I put him down on the floor for the first time, he shivered and cried and peed everywhere. He didn't like his make-shift bed, which is a modified fruit basket covered in warm blanket. He didn't like to be left alone for a long time. He refused to eat!! I persuaded him to drink milk, gave him small shredded bread, and still nothing. He refused to sleep alone outside, so I gave him my old plushies' bed. He decided that it was just right for him and declared it as his own. I don't know what happened that night, but on the next day he got comfortable immediately and ruled this house ever since. :D

:: I'm seeing Red! ::

I heard stories about dogs who can only see this world in black & white, but I'm very sure Chester is not one of them. He is truly fascinated by the color Red. I barely notice this before his groomer told me. Occasionally, if I have to go out of town for a long period of time, Chester have to sleep over at his groomer's place, who owns a small kennel. The groomer's son was wearing a red pants, and Chester kept on pulling it off the poor boy! The boy's sister also became a victim when she got out of her room wearing her school uniform, a white shirt and a red skirt. Chester chase her around, pulling her skirt. I apologized to the frightened kids, and starting to observe Chester more closely. And yup, he does love red, more than anything! So I got the ideas to bought him a red ball to keep him entertained when he's home alone; also a red spoon for him to drink his medicine. Unfortunately, he can't be fooled. He kept the ball, but always tries to broke the spoon whenever he got the chance... :p

'Stay away from my toy!'

:: meet Chessieboy ::

Inspired by the book titled Marley & Me by John Grogan, I want to blog the story of me and my pet shih-tzu, Chester. He was born on July 7, 2004; his real name was Aaron Lee, but I thought that's no name for such a furball ... so after a few discussion with my friend, we came up with the name Chester. We fought between naming him Tamago (as in egg sushi, yes), but it turns out that most of his fur are brown, not golden, so I think it's a bit weird to name him after a yellowish thing. And since he will be treated like a prince, we choose something with a British sound... So, welcome to Chester's world.
