FAMILY DAY OUT ~ MRDO DAY 2007

When I received an email a month ago about the Malaysia Responsible Dog Ownership (MRDO) Day that was held yesterday, I knew it’s an event not to be missed. It was also the first time ever for Pea and Pumpkin to attend such event so that got me even more excited. Despite being held on Sunday, my dad and Hubby got up very early to get ready for the day-out too. After I packed some water, doggie treats, disposable hand towel and newspaper (for the poo poo), we drove off to Central Park, Bandar Utama.

The boys were very excited when I put them inside the car.

Look at how happy Pea was.

Registration started at 8.00 a.m. but when we reached there about 7.45 a.m., there were already lots of loud barking from excited doggies.

After I got the two boys registered, we walked around the park to make some new friends. It was fun to see how friendly Pumpkin was. Regardless of big or small dog, he will still run over to make friends. However, Pea takes longer time to warm up with other dogs.

First stop, Pea (red leash) and Pumpkin (green leash) befriended a Beagle and a Shih Tzu…lots of sniffing involved…sniff sniff sniff.

Shih Tzu Gang….err…Pumpkin, not your clan lah!!!!

Fuyoh!! Look at this Shih Tzu’s eyes!!!!

Such a pretty Shih Tzu…so so girly…..for your information, she was sitting in a stroller! SO pampered!!!!

Shih Tzu pups! I wonder if it’s for sale.

Wow! I didn’t realized there were so many Shih Tzu until I went through all the pictures I took. Yeah! Shih Tzu rules! Anyway, I also took a lot of pictures of other breeds too but as they were always in moving motion, it was quite difficult to get a good and clear photo. Here are a few good ones:

Yo Yo Yo!!! Ain’t I cool or what?? (Psst…look at the chopstick leg)

Another cool dude

This Pekingnese was like a furball! Can you spot his eyes, ear and mouth?

Cuddly Chow Chow sat down and posed for me. Good doggie!

My ever favourite St Bernard. They were huge and the mouth were full of slimy saliva..hehehe.

Another St Bernard posing for me, oh, not forgetting his proud owner too!

OOoooooo...such an elegant looking Afghan Hound.

SPLASH!!! Ever seen a dog swimming doggie style??

Turned out it was a Labrador playing fetch with its owner. RUN!! He is about to shake off water from his body!!!

So embarrassed to say this, Pea and Pumpkin were so unfit. Barely an hour, both of them were so tired and decided to sit down at the walkway. The event has not even started!! There were supposed to be some dog demonstration by the Police K-9 unit as well as Doggie Games and Competition - Footy Fun Run, Mummy Wrap Rap, Dog Recall, Fastest Eating Duo, Dog Best Fashion, Weave Fast-n-Steady, Simon Say, Dog Musical Chair. Since we have to rush off to KL at 10 a.m., we decided to head home for my boys to rest.

Pea and Pumpkin resting……watching the world goes by…..tired tired....

While heading back to our car, this lady with her terrier was looking for a parking space. So I decided to pat this fella’s head since it already popped out from the car’s window.

My two boys totally enjoyed themselves and they were so exhausted when they reached home. One thing for sure, in future we will definitely participate in such enjoyable event!
