Hide-a-way Bag (out-dated post)

As we will be traveling to Singapore over the Wesak weekend, we had the tough task of figuring out how to settle the dogs' well being while we are away. After much thought, we figured that Cami can probably board with a friend while Axle, who is more independent and tough can be sent for boarding. As we have not boarded our dogs in Malaysia before, we are a bit cautious as Axle can get a little out of hand sometimes especially during his walks. However, after checking the facility at our vet and considering that Dr. Edmund has been exposed to Axle before, we felt somewhat comfortable and decided that Axle should be fine there.

For Cami, Groovy's owners were kind to agree to take care of her. Hopefully, there will be no regrets after her stay! As Groovy lives in an apartment and gets carried in and out of the apartment building in a bag, we had to train Cami to do the same. Groovy's mum loaned us a bag to practice with Cami over the week. The aim is to have Cami sit still in the bag with a towel covered over her head while she gets transported in and out of the apartment. Now, mind you that the only time we stuffed Cami in a bag was when we first had her around 9-10 weeks and we carried her in a little handbag in a shopping mall back in the States. Some people noticed her but I think the majority did not as the handbag was black in color and she kinda blended in with the bag. She could have passed off as a a little stuffed toy dog at that time.

The results ...


Looking comfy...



Didn't do too bad, ei?
