|| Happy Chinese New Year - The Year of the Dog! ||

Since the Chinese new year is just round the corner, I decided that Ashley and Silky shld get new clothes! Therefore, I bought each of them a set of clothes..

At first, I got this pants jumper and polk dot ear cover for Ashley, but it ended up that the jumper was too big and the ear cover was too small..So, I had to go back and get them changed..

-Ashley's Demimn Jumper-

Therefore, I got this instead. But I actually prefer the pants because since Ashley looks like a male..it would look good on her! I reckon the skirt will look funny on her..haha

-Her New Ear Cover-

Don't blame me for my bad choice of style for her ear cover, because there is really limited choice! I also wish they had better looking ones...

-Silky's elegant golden dress-

By the way, you guys must be wondering who the hell is silky. Anyway, she was an abandoned dog, and we found her. When we brought her for grooming, we were told that, she's a Shih Tzu/ Maltese Cross.

*Drum rolls...*
And this is Silky!

-Shih Tzu/ Maltese Cross-----------> Silky!-

Looks like I'm fated to get cross breed dogs, cause Ashley is also a cross breed: American/ English Cocker Spaniel cross. Well anyway, initially when we found Silky, she was very timid and VERY skinny! She was in a bad condition. Her fur was badly matted, her skin was problematic due to the matted fur and we could practically feel her spine and her ribs! I reckon if she wasnt found sooner, she would be dead.

Just after grooming:




Look..you can even see her spine!!



Btw, thats not me in the photo...(if you were wondering)



-Silky after grooming, but still very skinny-


After being with us for a few weeks:


-A few weeks after proper care and ample love- -Ashley and Silky-

I guess you must agree with me that she looks much better right? Look at how skinny she was before! Those people who abandoned her should never be forgiven~

Back to the New Year clothes, Ashley looks quite silly in it..but very cute though! And Silky, as usual, looks good in clothing!
