She initially wanted to have a party for me, but was so busy with so many things that in the end, the party idea was scrapped. Still, I got a nice 3rd anniversary adoption present from Aunties FF, N and B. Thanks so much!

3 years
Time flies, and it has been 3 years since I came to my present home. To celebrate the occasion, my Lady Boss bought a Cookie Monster (see below) for me.

Dango goes to F1
The first ever F1 Grand Prix night race was held in Singapore on 28th September 2008 and I, Dango the bull terrier, was there to watch it :D Although I have watch F1 on TV many times as a dog audience and don't seem to find it terribly exciting, I must say that watching it 'live' is an entirely different thing. The mood was electrifying and you could feel the excitement in the air.
Besides, street racing, unlike track racing, is more challenging for the F1 drivers. The streets are narrower and over-taking is more difficult.
Me getting ready to go, with my F1 ticket around the neck
Hey come on, what are we waiting for? Let's go, man!!!!
This is Gate 1, the entrance to our suite.
Lots of F1 merchandise on sale. What if you didn't bring enough cash?
Not to worry, there are ATMs on site
Models of old F1 racing cars on display. This is from Rolls Royce.
This is from Mini Cooper
The whole place was like a big theme park, there was even a band jamming away to provide live music.
Some audience enjoying a little bit of quiet time by the river before the start of the race
The crowd streaming in
A make shift washroom just one level below our suite. Even though it's a make shift toilet, the interior is as clean as and looks like a hotel toilet in town.
We arrived at our suite just in time for a lavish buffet dinner catered by Hyatt Regency. Also in the suite were other Wealth Management and Global Markets clients of the institution that hosted us (as you might have guessed by now, our F1 suite ticket was an invitation)
This is the pit, it's where they changed tyres and refill fuel during the race.
There was a lot of drama and lots of excitement - Massa (representing Ferrari) was ahead of the pack for more than half the race, until he went for refuelling and some mistakes occurred. He dropped from No.1 to No.18 right away.
Plus other dramas like crashes, etc.
All in all, I had a great time. Woof!

That's disgusting
.
In case you can't see clearly and are wondering what's that in the picture, it's actually a snail coiled around a piece of my dung and sucking up all its glory ;)
It was there for a good few hours and after that, I couldn't bear to watch anymore.
One man's meat, another man's poison.
One animal's dung, another animal's treasure.

The new guy
There is a new puppy in the pack, and he is none other than Yoghurt or Yoyo for short.
Yoyo is a whippet puppy and is the latest addition to Auntie B's family. Strictly speaking, its the latest addition to our big extended family. Paw, Auntie B's first dog, is the god dog of my Lady Boss. By virtue of that fact, Yoyo is also related to Auntie N, who is the owner of Zen, Paw's blood sibling. Zen is also a god dog of my Lady Boss, so that makes her "sister" Patches a god dog as well, by default. Hmm.... the extended family is getting bigger and bigger.

ANOTHER NEW FRIEND
Just came back from walking my Big Boss in the park behind our house.
Saw this young mother with her sweet looking little daughter ( 2 years old or less )
(Actually met them a few days before, the little girl was trying to mimic her mother in dance steps..so cute !It was a beautiful sight in the late evening sun.. mother & daughter. Big Boss said to me he wished he has his camera with him).
So I approached her in my usual friendly manner, dragging Big Boss along. The little girl was a bit afraid of me even though I was looking real friendly. Big Boss introduced me to them and had a chat, and guess what , when we part company, little girl called out " Bye Bye DANGO! " . She remembers my name !Yes ! I think I heard her mother told Big Boss the little girl's name is Belinda, or Melinda ?
Any way, another human will be calling out Dango ! Dango ! when ever I bring Big Boss or Lady Boss out ...heh heh . Big Boss will be jealous. Nobody call his name in the neighbourhood..

Dango Lost Another Toe Nail
This morning Big Boss went out to the front yard to pick up the Today papers. In the corner of his eyes he saw a woman with a small dog walking on the far side of the road out side. Hardly seconds later Dango charged pass Big Boss and smacked violently against the front garden gate, barking furiously. It was then that Big Boss realised the woman must had quite deliberately walked her dog to within inches from the gate.
Big Boss thought it was just another of Dango's show piece vigilance. But he was shocked to see Dango limping in with her front left leg, and blood all over the place. Upon close examination, the left front foot' first nail ( human's big toe position ) was bent 45 degree out wards and bleeding profusely. After the initial clean up, Big Boss sent Dango to the 'family VET' near by to get the nail removed and wound fixed.
The Vet is good and Big Boss wondered how she managed to get Dango to allow her to remove the nail ( one of her closely guarded personal weapons )
The removed nail is another one to the earlier ' collection ' Any one want top see it?
A note to dog owners of toy breeds. Dogs like Bullies do not like other dogs. They do not socialise like the way toy dog meets toy dog. It was a foolish thing that woman did this morning.

My cousin
I have not introduced my cousin to my fans out there. I have a cousin.... er, as you can see, he is not my biological cousin. He is actually the dog of my Lady Boss' cousin and his name is Golden.
As you can see, Golden is a ... well, golden retriever and is about a year younger than me.
He loves drinking water and playing tug (see above pic).
