Hort park / Labrador park

My wife have been searching for new places for YuDan and she came across the Hort Park. 

We have never went there before therefore we are also quite excited to explore the place. 

To our surprise, the place is neat and clean. A great place to take your dog for a walk there. It's a tag small though, finished slow walking the park in 20-30mins. 

If you want to take a longer walk with your dog, the route links to another park which we didn't explore. The map seems too large on the board and we are afraid that the return trip back to the car park will be too tiring if we were to venture further. 

We saw a playground there and wanted to let YuDan experience the feel of sand. Entirely new to him, he went around sniffing the the sand. With a moisted nose, the sand was all around his nose and muffler. Not sure if he eaten the sand, have to let him experience the sand more so we can bring him to Sentosa in the future. 

Pirate at the playground. 


When we are about to leave Hort park, we decided to visit Labrador park which is also nearby, a 5-10mins drive and it's along the south coast of Singapore. The place is a lot much bigger, walking the whole park might take hours I think so we only explored a segment of the map. 

We saw many people fishing there when it's not allowed to. Might be dangerous for pets if their fishing hooks dropped on the ground and they did not pick it up. 

Walking further along the coast line, the breeze is very cooling and the sunset along the horizon is magnificent when you sit on the bench and watch the sunset. Saw a few other dogs too. Over all not a bad place to go with your dog. Just need to be careful with what's on the ground.

Dogs meet up session

Had a dogs meet up session last Sunday.

YuDan have another new friend! Skippy!

Skippy is a Jack Russell, 11 years old. Very muscular still!


Wife says that YuDan showed Skippy and Dasher around the house, into each room, toilet and kitchen which is quite cute.

I got home late therefore my wife have been hosting her friends and the dogs. Before I got home, my wife texted my mobile to hurry me. Skippy and Dasher have been fighting over YuDan. Skippy wanted YuDan's attention but YuDan did not reciprocate. Dasher barks Skippy to protect YuDan and they started to bark, chase and slight fight while YuDan sat one corner watching the whole drama.

Seems like Dasher weigh YuDan heavily huh? Best friend? Haha.

When I got home, I was welcomed by the three dogs. A pleasant sight to wish for everyday.

To my noticed, Skippy nails were very long and his owner wanted me to cut for him but I guess better not as I'm not a professional groomer nor I'm Skippy's owner to know his temperament, don't want to get bitten by Skippy. :)

Skippy was also whining non-stop when I came home, as if he was talking or singing to YuDan but he was ignored. Wife says he has been whining the whole time. Owner says he likes to talk to people hehe.

Slowly reintroduce the dogs again and they began playing a bit. Gave them treats for good behaviour.

No whining, no barks.

Trick before treats! =]


Rolling for Dasher.
Throw and catch the treats for Skippy.
Holding/balancing treats on nose for YuDan.

And they left home barking at each other along the corridor while waiting for the lift down. :x
