lost and found

Hi, it’s me Vanilla Bean. I was doing my gate-watch yesterday evening when I noticed a whimpering critter outside our fence…
oppps… really, I didn’t mean to frighten this critter with my barking voice… I tried to reassure him that we come in pieces we mean no harm… Still, he’s whimpering. Obviously, he didn’t trust us…

…and to keep himself safe, this barely-a-month old brown puppy instinctively sandwiched himself between the potted plants and the gate… which I thought was a very wise thing to do… Why?… because those green things on the pots are fortune plants… Somehow, the Chinese Bamboo took pity of him and gave him a good fortune because after an hour, someone picked him up just in time for dinner…

Monday Mischief: jellybelly’s rage

4/28/2012, Saturday 8:00 a.m. — Big mama reported that the little furball upstairs was howling, scratching and doing some acts of mischief for two hours… that the critter raged with all her might when she realized she missed an early morning road trip (the Saturday Dog Walks with the LDN canines)…

These are the inanimate victims: flip-flops, carton box, broom…and she managed to throw the drinking bowl downstairs (the water mess got cleaned up so no photo to show you)…

"ya left me...so i mounted it and willed it to follow you just like in the Harry Potter movies but it won't budge"- JellyBelly a.k.a Vanilla Bean

When you own a puppy, expect mischief from time to time…it’s natural. If your pet dog doesn’t display some mischievousness, you probably own a critter from another planet… -Twinkle

an ice cream spoon ain’t enough

Hi. It’s me, Vanilla Bean.

Spring says hi in some parts of the world; here in my town, its hot… which means tropical Summer is fast approaching…

To cool down, my humans consume lots of refreshments… iced tea, chilled buko juice, ice candies, halu-halo and yes… ice cream. Usually, they buy something with laced chocolate. Sometimes, they go for fruity flavor… such as the ones below…

Selecta Classic Strawberry Ice Cream vs. Selecta Supreme Pistachio & Cashew Ice Cream

She said I could only have a spoon of the yummy stuff. Which one to taste? Selecta‘s super thick strawberry ice cream laced with real strawberry swirl or pistachio ice cream with roasted pistachio and cashew nuts… it’s such a difficult decision for a puppy to make… so I went for the obvious — the green one…

this green ice smells more cashew than pistachio

here I go...ooow... 2 nut-flavors in one spoon...

…but a spoon of yumminess is really not enough… I’ve got to use my cute charms to get another one…

it's really a hot day, so have a heart and gimme some...pleaaasssse

my favorite sweet flavor

... yummmmy...

Wordless Wednesday: hide-and-seek

Vanilla Bean: good job Panini!

Monday Mischief: floss the boredom

Hi. It’s me, Vanilla Bean. Some humans thought that I looked really cute with what I wore last February 25… so they asked my overseer to make their pets that Reversible Aqua/Floral dog vest. While she’s on it, I waited patiently for half an hour.. then, boredom happened… (I always lie on the end of her craft table nearest to the window to signal my need for mental/physical activity…)

*yawn*...I'm not sleepy just bored...

After another five minutes, I yawned at her but she ignored me; she continued to play with her scissors… ahh… what’s a pup gotta do?

Think VB...think...how to be productive while waiting for snack-break...hmmm

Maybe I'll just floss while waiting...where's the tail-end of this thread?

ahh so you're done?... biscuit-break at last! my teeth are so ready for the nibbles...

A little mischief does the trick…heheh…

Ben Stillah and Poroko

Hi. It’s me Vanilla Bean. While the elders of my pack chill out for an afternoon siesta, I act as the pup-nanny of the little squeekers. It’s a huge responsibility for me because the job requires alertness, focus and fast feet. Moreover, I have to keep them out of trouble and to teach them mischief fun.

Let me give you an update on the boys – Ben Stillah (barely three months old and the oldest among the batch) and Poroko (two months old and the youngest puppy). Both are curious of the big wide world; they spend most of the fun time exploring with their mouths and noses.

Ben Stillah likes to play with chunks of charcoal.  He doesn’t even mind the soot on his coat…

Poroko prefers the chunks of coconut husks to attract attention from the humans…

…and like me, they wage war against the broomstick…

…this little pooch learns fast how to get cute h the camera…

Here’s the video of their play-fight:

Monday Mischief: puppy sensibility

Hi. Its me, Vanilla Bean.

When my overseer told me to stay upstairs one windy day, I obeyed her (that’s what she does when she’s busy…) However, I was so shocked when I checked into her craft corner — fabrics, clothes, and whateveritsname were everywhere on the floor! Really… I got so concerned because I heard the Wind whispered mischief in the air…

It occurred to me…what if the Wind swooped up all these stuff out of the window… I would be accountable… So, I prepared for the worst case scenario and brought in my collection of beef-bones. I carefully put them on fabrics here and there… I was so occupied that I didn’t notice her at the door…

…and I explained what went on while she’s gone…
…and told her how the silly bear moved 2 meters away from its original place… yep, I tried to remove the balloon but it’s stuck to its white head…

Monday Mischief: pups’ play

Hi. its me Vanilla Bean.

Among the ShihPoo litter, the 2 cute brothers keep mum-Princess very busy. I often notice that she gives the puppy Uggie more nips than his litter-mates (that’s what she did to me when I was their age). However, I observe that brother Ben Stillah is more mischievous than Uggie… but he seems to get away from mum’s nipping…

See these promising little mischief makers in action. Here’s the video:
