Tuffy Roams : Pictures!

Hello there good furry and fur-less readers,

Top Dog Tuffy reporting. I have returned to home sweet Dog Woods. Although I had an exciting and adventurous time hunting for carob, there's really no place like home. Especially with the Swine Flu at looming large, we scuttled home as quickly as we could!

Honestly, all that gallavanting is really quite tiring. According to the Chief the distance between Cat City (Kuching) to Kuala Lumpur or what I previously termed as Kay El is 977km/ 607 miles and from Kuala Lumpur to Perth (Australia) another 4186km/2601 miles. Times that by two we've travelled 10 326 km in the last 10 days! Woo! Now that's at least a gadzillion zoomies around Dog Woods!

Snoopy - my trusty smart side kick is thrilled that we're back. She and the rest of the Dog Woods Pack gave us quite a rousing, loud welcome along with many slobbery kisses and enthusiastic wags. They even made me a bright yellow floral welcome chain ... so sweet of them...




I promised earlier that I'd post photos of the places the Chief and I visited and new friends I made but had trouble uploading on mobile posts. Do forgive the quality of photos - they were taken with the mobile phone's camera that's got a blur spot - thanks to the Chief's clumsiness - she's got butter fingers ... and her phone's starting to protest having being dropped ever so often.
These be my water breathing friends caged in their classy glassy homes. It's small (compared to the rivers and oceans of where they came from) but it's still home for them ...

This here be some cold blooded gecko friends whom I thought were quite cute ... that little guy there was begging me to set him free from the glassy confines of his apartment. But the Chief made me promised not to touch anything so me paws are tied ... pity, It would have been grand to help in the escape of that cute little gecko and his friend...

Being in my best-est, Basset behaviour I had the privilege of being introduced to up close and personal, to my first of feathered friends! 'Squawk-ee' there is really quite a beauty and intelligent too - just like Snoopy. Now that I've gotten to know her, am now regretting all the noisy chases we Dog Woods Pack get up to chasing her feathered kind .... must pass new bark-law when I get back to Dog Woods - No chasing the feathered kind.

While these be more cold blooded kind. Lizards of sorts ... even the Chief is unsure what manner of species they be. But they sure look mighty cosy huddled up together having a snooze ... inspring yours dogg-edly to hunker down and catch some Zzzs myself but the Chief insisted we move on. Oh well ... now you understand why I said the trip was tiring ...

The Chief and I found ourselves before Dog Obedience School ... which I had a rather uneasy feeling about. Was more than a little worried that the Chief had designs of enrolling this Top Dog in Obedience School! (I am not disobedient, thank you very much ... I just have a mind of my own!) But it was a relief that the Chief was merely curious about how they ran Dog Obedience School in Kuala Lumpur. If you magnify the (rather blurred) photo, you'd see the 'trainer' at the far corner of the picture leaning casually on the wall, looking equally uninterested as the puppies enrolled, in the class ... Hehe.

And this be the entrance to the Pet Hotel. Again I was worried that the Chief would leave me behind in some strange smelling place and go off gallavanting on her own. If she did, I would have protested and insist she'd send me home to Dog Woods at ONCE! But again, my canine fears were unfounded ... she kept me close. For once in that strange rather scary instant, I truly appreciated that being on a short leash really isn't a bad thing ...

Okay now ... time for this TOP DOG to take a break and catch up on all the Zzzs that I've been missing since embarking on that adventurous hunt for carob. Will post more pictures in later post ...
