Costume fun at PAWS Scaredy Cats and Dogs 2011!


Last Sunday, 23 October 2011, PAWS held its 8th Scaredy Cats and Dogs pets and kids costume contest. This happens every year, but it’s only now my sister and I decided to actively take part in it. The Php250 registration fee went to PAWS, and that really makes it worth the effort :)

Shantee came as Rainbow Brite since we knew she wouldn’t want to wear something as weird as Kubrick’s Steamed Shrimp costume. The weirdness (and apparently the uniqueness) of Kubrick’s costume won him the Crypt Keeper’s Choice (Most Original Costume) award, and Shantee went home sourgraping :P Read more

Pawparazzi at It’s a Dog’s Life fun run!


While Kubrick is recovering from placing 4th (yup, my husband Marc and him almost got into the top 3!) and Shantee is still nursing her pups and injured pride for not being on the spotlight this morning… Here are some of the shots I took during the event! :)

I’ll be posting a more complete post on our experience later, but for now, enjoy the photos! :) Read more

My Awesome Dog contest results


Since there were more race kits to be given away than valid entries (humans who followed the instructions for the contest properly), we decided to just give them away! :)

Below will be getting a free race kit which includes #1 Dog Bandana, Race Bib (for master), Race Bib (for dog) and Presidio Dog Run Manual (no race shirt).
