16/12/2008 - ECP with Bee, Blur and Bern

Woo Hoo!! Went ECP cycling with the 3 Bs today... Blur, Bern and Bee... lol... **with special thanks to blur blur for driving us**

The weather was PERFECT!! it was nice and breezy with just the right amount of sunshine... lovely day for a nice stroll and a long bike ride along East Coast Park...

Bee has been terrified of bicycles since he was a pup, so we never did manage to teach him to run alongside our bikes :( ... I had completely given up hope on ever bringing him on biking escapades until i found this:

imperial canine kangaroo pouch!!

haha... don't worry.... the carrier is heavily padded so the dog feels safe and dosen't feel any discomfort at all... Elvis LOVES it!! he loves riding with the wind in his face... lol...

During the 1st part of the journey, i was carrying elvis on the front like this:

On our way back to marine cove, i figured out it was more comfortable for the both of us if he was facing the back... so: lol... having a real life doggy backpack sure attracts alot of "SO CUTEEEE" , "OMG LOOK AT THE DOG!!" and "IS IT REAL??!!"... this lovely couple riding next to us were shocked yet facinated to see Bee strapped to my back that i had to tell them not to worry coz "HE LIKES IT BACK THERE"... lol...

Bicycle rental was dirt cheap today!! we paid $6 for 1 hour and got 2 hours free!! out of that 3 hours, i spent 2 hours cycling while blur and bern used up their whole 3 hours **including a 45 minute long lunch break**... i returned the bike after lunch and brought Elvis for a nice long walk along the beach while blur and bern continued cycling till it was time to return their bikes...

we also visited the wakeboarding place **loads of cute, hot dudes**, spent time staring at ships go by and hung out by the beach **actually Bern and Blur wanted to climb that big rock thingy again, elvis kept running off to join them and i had to keep running after that dog that keeps running off off to join blur and bern** lol...

at the end of the day, all 3 of us were pooped out... especially the rock and roll king... lol...

sigh... everyone who knows elvis has been asking me what happened to his white beard and legs :( well... what happened was, due to a change in his diet **elvis is currently on 100% raw meat and vege**, the PH value in his saliva has changed which lead to the staining of his beard and legs when he drools /lick his toes **bad habit**...

although the change in his diet has caused major staining, it has also helped solved the skin problem that we've been fighting for years... which means he no longer needs daily medication and bloodtest once every few months to surpress his allergies... so i've got no intention of putting him back on kibbles just to get his beard and legs white again coz the stain is nothing compared to the pain he had to go through when he was plagued with allergies....

true, he does not have the nice long white beard and white legs anymore... infact he dosen't even look much like a schnauzer anymore due to his funky hairdos but he's still my baby... stained or not...and i love him just the same and i want him to be comfortable and happy :)
