Visiting a Chinese Temple

We decided to go somewhere different with Eva today and we chose to visit a Chinese Temple which was high up in the mountains.

The view from here

You can see the capital city , Kuala Lumpur from a distance.

At the carpark we found some animal sculptures.

The pagoda

At the entrance. Eva giving her girly look.

Now let's zoom out...

Can you still see her??

She behaved herself very well. Lots of people were interested in her and also many commented on how pretty she was. Someone even asked to take her picture.

This is the traditional Imperial Guarding Lion, often called 'Foo Dogs' in the Western culture.

They were believed to protect the temples, palaces, and homes of the wealthy.

Who do you think is the better protector here???? 

A huge Buddha statue

Does it look like Buddha is looking at her?

She was such a good girl and knew how to pose every time we asked her to.

Here are some of the statues

Dragons on the roof

Eva reading about the Lohans

"Lohans are well-known for their great wisdom, courage and supernatural power. Due to their abilities to ward off the evil, Lohans have became guardian angels of the Buddhist temple and there in the main hall standing guard are the ever-present, indomitable-looking 18 Lohan figures, sometimes accompanied by 500 or more lesser Lohans."

At the exit

This was the last posing spot with the Chinese lanterns.

You can see that she looks pretty tired out!

Last Summer Holiday ...

I was looking at some old photos and found this beautiful one that I'd love to share with all of you. 

It was taken last year  when Orah had her summer holiday with us.  

Look who's the happiest one???

Have a great weekend!

P.S: Rosie is performing in Amsterdam from Friday to Sunday and we send her all our best wishes, love, and kisses.
Good luck, Rosie!!!

Off we go to the shows!

Can you guess where I am???

The DOG SHOW!!

Rosie came home this morning and she decided she wanted to go to the dog show and take me along to socialise. So, off we went!

We saw dogs doing obedience

I was ringside, watching the dogs.

I saw the German Shepherds go around the ring.

Then a sheltie came on!

But mom! I think I'm prettier! Shouldn't I show instead?

Hey lookie! I can do a stack too!!

I also met my buddy, Pico.

It was so much fun! I saw lots of big dogs and wanted to make friends with them, but they didn't entertain me. I guess we shelties have to stick together.

Upon arriving home, I noticed a great addition to my toy collection!!!

They are from the sweetest auntie I have. 

See how prettily they are braided? She did it herself!!

I also got some yummy foods too.

Which I couldn't help but start eating!

Thank you auntie Lian!! I absolutely adore the toys and the treats!

A doggy day out

Today we went to an event hosted by our local shelter.
The highlight of the day was a doggy play pen outside where the dogs could go off-leash and socialise with the supervision of two trainers.

First the big dogs had their time in pen. 

The huskies all knew each other very well.

Then the small dogs got their turn. Unfortunately, there was no one of Eva's size.

They were either smaller

Or bigger

But then, look who we met!

Our friend, Hero!

Eva wasn't too pleased with Hero sniffing her.

But then, she had to survive with this all the time.

(with different little dogs)

We tried to get Hero and Eva to have a picture together, but as you can see, it wasn't very successful :)

It was a good day out, and after having lunch with Hero's humans, we came back with a very tired sheltie girl. Although Eva is still wary of other dogs, I think that her boarding time has helped her get over a lot of her fear of others.  

Come join me?
