A Festive Christmas Of Chow Chow Dogs: The Pack From Singapore!

Spotting one or two Chow Chow Dogs can be an enthralling sight, what would you do if you were surrounded by more than ten of these fuzzy wonders all at once?— we were fascinated. SG Chow Lions (Singapore’s very own group dedicated to Chows and their owners) celebrated their Christmas at Ah B’s Café, in which we were only too honoured to be invited to attend! In case you were wondering, there were more than just Chows at this gathering, other Dogs were also welcomed ☺

SG Chow Lions Founder Clarise and Xiong Xiong

Are Chows Really Aggressive By Nature?

While research may have informed us that Chows can be an aggressive breed by nature, what leads up to that fact might be due to improper training or lack thereof. Establishing a dominant role with your Chow is equally as important— with firm but loving methods. Asserting violence or force is not necessary, just a whole lot of patience and positive reinforcements (treats and praises) for good behaviour!

"Hold on, gotta sit pretty"

As mentioned in our earlier article on the Chow Chow breed, socialization at an early stage encourages Chows to be much friendlier amongst peers and other Dogs. That, we feel, is where social groups like SG Chow Lions can come into play, owners can share experiences and gatherings are an opportunity for socializing— for human companions too ☺

Nothing but smiles with Adeline and one of her Chows!

SG Chow Lions Xmas Gathering 2017

We’ve got a first-hand experience at this particular Christmas gathering, where owners were aware of the Chows’ nature and considerate of each other’s pets— that means juggling between keeping an eye on their own Doggos, other Doggos, all whilst mingling and enjoying the little party. Not confident of your own Chow’s aggressiveness? Strap on a muzzle or leash, nopawdy’s gonna laugh, they’d be thankful of your consideration and training efforts!

Joanna & Nala - Still looking adorbs with my muzzle on!

A true Christmas gathering this was, gift goodie-bags, all the fuzz, and food— for Dogs and Humans. While the pet-friendly Café had a good sized indoor seating, and a mini lounging spot, our dear Chow friends were pretty large Dogs, and for that, there was an ample outdoor space for the canines to roam about if necessary. Festive lights and décor got all the Chows comfy and cooled in the air-conditioned space.

Group shot at the outdoor space!

Janson the Pom came by too!

Were The Chows Friendly?

We can safely say for sure that the Chows we met that day were a friendly lot! It was amusing to observe how they were inquisitive about one another. When one barks, a medley of barks from different Doggos follow through.

Chow Squad - Let's do this!

You could clearly tell their owners had the right control over their own Pets, because any chance of imminent “dominance-establishing” behavior from a Chow is promptly curbed by respective owners! —no strangers to random over-stimulated Pet moments. As two new hoomins in this extreme fuzziness, it was a meet-and-greet sesh with gentle giants. Thank you for having us, SG Chow Lions, it was an absolute pleasure meeting Clarise (Founder), Plex, Chen, Sim, Sheila, and Joanna. Not to mention all your lovely Chow Chows!

I love pats.

The realest Teddy.

I'm beat!

Bird Gathering In Singapore: Celebrating 3 Years With Pet Birds At The Beach!

The wet season calls for a mini celebration when we were blessed with a fair amount of sun on a special day— the 3^rd Anniversary of a local Bird appreciation group, Birdies and Family. Held at Palawan beach Sentosa, this celebration was open to the public, highlighting a spread of happenings including TWO free-flight demonstrations! 

Blush pink on autumn leaves

Free Flight For Domesticated Birds

The beauty of free flight for pet Parrots and Birds are truly a sight to behold. Beyond visual spectaculars, the true purpose of free flight also challenges the bond between owner and their Fids. It takes immaculate trust through training and care over a period of time to fully achieve free flight status.

Meet Nicole; the sassy girl

At the peak of this achievement is where your pet Parrot is able to enjoy the nature and surroundings in its rightful freedom— a Bird’s eye view from atop ☺

Can you tell us apart?

For cautionary measures, please note that free flight is not recommended for first timers without veteran training advice and supervision. Which brings us to the next pointer, that’s just one of the many reasons why Bird groups as such exist! Join them in on free flight activities and help your pet Bird express their true characteristics and learn from one another, the safest way possible; do not try this on your own.

Hoomin, gimme that sunflower seed!

Birds At The Gathering

Unlike Bird singing competitions, these bird enthusiasts are in love with different species— Parrots. Of different sizes, species and colours. Locating the event spot was easy after crossing paths with two members from Birdies and Family whom affirmed our route (Thank you!). 

And with that, a myriad of bird squawking, chirping and twilling began to hit our ears. This was actually more than just fun and games, there were stalls with toys and products for your feathery friends, also a health talk on pet Birds, lucky draw, lunch, and even cake!

It has always been a pleasure meeting families and friends of Birdies and Family, it was a warm and welcoming celebration where owners were more than willing to aid you if you wanted a photo of their vibrant Fids (no flash photography of course). 

Ring neck-perch

The best part? Catching up and making new friends and actually getting to play with some of the Parrots! In fact, just from this alone you could make out just how close the larger Fids were to their owners— not all of them fancy being held by a stranger (seek permission before trying!)

Nom nom nom.

Relaxing Music For Dogs: How It Really Affects Your Pooch!

As we should be aware by now, our dearest canine companions are descendants of Wolves. In the wild, Wolves and Dogs are known to communicate and identify pack members through howling, each tune distinctive to their family. For domesticated Dogs such as our very own, barking and howling are often perceived as an attempt to communicate, or even taking a swing at music-making ☺ 

Time to Jazz it up with Doggos!

How Does Music Affect My Dog?

Behavioural studies have proven that Dogs are actually capable of identifying different tunes and pitches, enabling them to be affected by music like we do– Rock & Hip Hop induces adrenaline rush, the certain touch of angst and even a hint of sadness at times. Classical & Jazz music is best for relaxation. 

Both looking as pristine as their smiles

It is said that Dogs have a better inclination to wind instruments due to pitch and frequency. But like us, how Doggos react to the genres of music varies too (there's always a preferred choice). Undeniably, the most noticeable reaction is your Dog trying to join you in on a number as you sing or dance around at home (we all have those moments).

Someone's all ready to dance ☺

Fun Fact      There has already been music pieces composed for Dogs, according to their hearing frequencies, some were even created with the howls of their own canine pals!

Awaiting the next performance

A few Pet services today (Pet boarding/sitting, Grooming, Pet shops) have incorporated music within their premises to encourage positive, soothing vibes, and sometimes even for overall healing purposes. A very good example of our first-time experiencing this was at an art exhibit; PAWsitive. one particular piece was put together with a spot for Doggos to rest, accompanied by the melodic tune of A Whole New World (soundtrack to Disney’s Aladdin), tuned specially to a Dog’s hearing frequency!

Jazz For Dogs Event

Well, need we say more? Of course we do! Although the name of the event is pretty self-explanatory, there is of course, a different amicable cause for this event– to raise funds for shelters and find homes for Dogs that are available for adoption! 

Everyone relaxed? Good!

This event was held right in the middle of Botanic Gardens, Singapore. Organized by ASD (Action for Singapore Dogs); Admission was free, with the option of purchasing a picnic basket with a mat, all prepared prior to the event. There was also a choice for freshly prepared Dog food for your furry friend!

Sea of Colours 

Live Jazz performances were going on at the Shaw Foundation Symphony Stage, and this was perhaps the only time we saw Botanic Gardens packed with so many four-legged friends. It was exactly as you’d imagine, colourful picnic mats sprawled across the lawn across the stage, and everyone and every paw getting serenaded by fun Jazzy music. Judging from the expressions and vibes from the crowd, we’d call it a musically effective event indeed.

Just elated, really 

Wanna get closer to the performance? No problem! Stage side seats available.
