OMG! WHAT DID I MISS? i was away for just a few days and i need an hour to catch back with the thread! XD
good thing that pet@icon is no more here.

oh btw! ADD ME INTO THE LIST FOR THE GATHERING!
so fast 5th gathering already.
Picnic sounds nice. if no tables and chairs then we can bring carpet la!
like picnic lo!

Updated you to the list We're supposed to be doing like a gathering every month ma, right? heh! Re: the picnic, Eric mentioned that the park would be filled with a lot of people on Sunday evening, so there might not be space for us to sit also. Since it's our first time there, maybe we just bring some small things for our doggies to share first lo (and at the same time see if it's feasible to do a picnic there next time). If Sunday evening cannot do picnic, maybe can do Sunday morning or Saturday evening?

I did a meat cake for Scottie's birthday... I put it at my blog with the recipe and all if you're interested

You can get quite a few ideas from the Internet by Googling. Type in keywords like dog-friendly cakes or dog birthday cakes, and some sites have recipes for you to try out I did that for Scottie's birthday before I tried out the meat cake thing! Hope that helps!

Added on April 28, 2009, 2:37 pmHehe..the pupcakes I meant was a small variation of the meat cake that I made. Instead of making one big cake, we put it into small cups to bake and use mashed potato for the pupcake frosting That was the idea essentially...

I found this recipe for a birthday cake. This was the one that I intended to make before I found the meat cake recipe. Maybe you can have a look and see:

DOG CHICKEN BACON LAYER BIRTHDAY CAKE

• 3 cups flour
• 1 T. baking powder
• 1/2 cup margarine, softened
• 6 eggs, beaten
• 1/2 cup corn oil
• 2 jars strained chicken baby food
• 2 cups finely shredded carrots
• plain or vanilla yogurt
• 2 or 3 strips of bacon, fried crisp, then crumbled, or use bacon-flavored jerky strips, cut into bits.


Generously grease and flour two 8" round cake pans; set aside. Combine flour and baking powder; set aside. In a mixing bowl, beat softened margarine until smooth. Add eggs and corn oil; mix well. Add strained chicken, and shredded carrots and mix until smooth. Add flour mixture and mix thoroughly. Pour batter into the 2 prepared 8" cake pans. Bake at 325° for 60 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes before removing from pans. Cool completely on wire racks.
Place one layer on a serving plate and spread yogurt over top. Place second layer on top, then spread yogurt on top and sides of entire cake. Sprinkle crumbled bacon or bits of jerky strips over top. Use "Pupperoni" sticks for candles.


Instead of using corn oil, I think any oil also can use for the cake...and instead of the chicken baby food (which I think is quite yucky ), I was thinking of replacing with boiled and shredded chicken meat. A bit more economical I wanted Scottie's cake to resemble (somewhat) his raw diet, which was meat, so I went with the meat cake idea. Let me know how it goes if you use this recipe!


P/S: Regarding the pupcakes, yeah you can google for pupcakes recipes too! They don't use sugar at all in the cakes. All they put in for flavour is a little bit of honey.

can put margarine and oil ar??

Well yeah...can. They can take oil and butter and margarine, but not too much also lo. Since it's a once a year thing, we just give one time la. But I think this cake recipe would be quite big, coz it's 3 cups of flour. If you're thinking of making a small one, you can half the amounts listed there to make a smaller cake. Don't feed the whole cake to the dogs la if you feel the cake is too much...you can feed them like one slice for that day, and the rest keep for the next day lo. If still cannot finish, share with the neighbor's doggies... That's what I did for Scottie's cake...haha!

hehe... i usually suck off the oil and salty parts from my food before i give to them mer - n if u dun wanna dirty ur hands, pass to them using mouth lor.. or from my forks n spoons at home.

they always sleep n snuggle up closely with me - cos they enjoy the attention. they can sleep next to me, but usually wont last long if i try to cuddle them like pillow hehe... they enjoy kissin my goatie.. hehe...

I really dun know if she's big boned but she seems so small to me. About 8" in length i think, 12" including the head. This is how she compares with another MS who is about 1.2yr old.

Anybody has any idea what colour she will turn out to be as she grow older??? Pet shop guy says she'll be lighter cos got golden tint in her hair...but she sure looks very dark (Indian) to me leh!!
