Canine Good Citizen | Summer
https://summerpopcornmushroom.wordpress.com/2014/03/16/canine-good-citizen
A Golden Retriever in Metro Manila, Philippines. March 16, 2014. One of golden retriever owners I follow on Instagram shared that they’ve failed an obedience assessment and wouldn’t be able to progress onto the next grade. That kinda got me thinking. Summer is generally very nice and all, but how well would she fare in that sort of test? AKC’s page linked to a blog post. Featuring a good video demo. 1 Accepting a Friendly Stranger. 2 Sitting Politely for Petting. 3 Appearance and Grooming. Summer’s...

Moby and Summer at Paws in the Park | Summer
https://summerpopcornmushroom.wordpress.com/2014/08/24/paws-in-the-park
A Golden Retriever in Metro Manila, Philippines. Moby and Summer at Paws in the Park. August 24, 2014. There was a doggy-themed event called Paws in the Park. Held last Sunday at the Greenfield District. It was a good thing that we brought along both Summer and Moby to the event — each dog had highlights to their afternoon while we were there. Our dogs met a couple of new friends i.e., Cymer’s doggies. For Summer, she also met a lot of familiar faces. Her friend, Walt. Gave her a box of treats. And knowi...

A Golden Retriever in Metro Manila, Philippines. Whole Pet Kitchen dog cafe is finally open! April 11, 2014.

Ken’s Happy Animals Club | Summer
https://summerpopcornmushroom.wordpress.com/2014/03/09/kens-happy-animals-club
A Golden Retriever in Metro Manila, Philippines. Ken’s Happy Animals Club. March 9, 2014. At a very young age, Ken has shown such compassion towards those poor dogs. What’s even nicer is how his dad is very supportive, and how they’ve teamed up to continue to help the dogs. With the help of his dad, Ken set up a website called the Happy Animals Club. Below is an adorable photo I grabbed from their album. Apparently, White Puppy knows how to high five! Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window).

PCSA event at Angelfields | Summer
https://summerpopcornmushroom.wordpress.com/2014/02/23/pcsa-event-at-angelfields
A Golden Retriever in Metro Manila, Philippines. PCSA event at Angelfields. February 23, 2014. Pam, Summer and I attended an event organized by the Phil Canine Sports Alliance (PCSA) which was held at Angelfields Nature Sanctuary, Tagaytay last Feb 16. There was a dog show for Labrador Retrievers for which the PCSA conducted a flyball demo. Afterwards, they had a basic flyball and agility workshop at a closed off area which gave the dogs quite a big space to run off leash. Summer sure had a field day!

Summer in the looloo weekly | Summer
https://summerpopcornmushroom.wordpress.com/2014/04/25/summer-in-the-looloo-weekly
A Golden Retriever in Metro Manila, Philippines. Summer in the looloo weekly. April 25, 2014. One of the iPhone apps we’ve been using is looloo. Which is like Foursquare but with more localized content. When we’re feeling foodie or would like to do a quick check on what a restaurant has to offer, we look it up on looloo to get suggestions on what to try. Their weekly newsletter is something Pam looks forward to since it often shares restaurants to check out. Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window).

Goodbye, Summer’s Heat! | Summer
https://summerpopcornmushroom.wordpress.com/2014/04/07/goodbye-summers-heat
A Golden Retriever in Metro Manila, Philippines. Goodbye, Summer’s Heat! April 7, 2014. We went through 2 heat cycles of Summer. That had meant bloody (and supersmelly) discharge — a lot since she’s a big dog, no doggy daycare, no trips to BGC, and extra vigilance whenever she’s taken out on walks. Well, goodbye to that! We weren’t instructed to clean the wound or put any medication on it. There were occasionally some traces of blood which we just gently dabbed with a clean, moist cloth. Whole Pet Kitche...

Moby’s day out | Summer
https://summerpopcornmushroom.wordpress.com/2014/05/04/mobys-day-out
A Golden Retriever in Metro Manila, Philippines. Moby’s day out. May 4, 2014. In a separate post, I wrote about our second time bringing Moby along to BGC. But tonight has so many highlights:. Moby being evidently excited about going out (he seemed so happy about our walk). Summer leading us to Eat Well for dinner, and then to Pan de Manila for the doggies’ pandesal break. Getting to promote adoption of shelter dogs in our own very little way. Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window). Beach trip w...

Moby: mixed breed and adopted from shelter | Summer
https://summerpopcornmushroom.wordpress.com/2014/05/04/moby-mixed-breed-shelterdog
A Golden Retriever in Metro Manila, Philippines. Moby: mixed breed and adopted from shelter. May 4, 2014. So today, we took him along with us again to BGC. He seemed quite excited about it — even rushing to the door after we put on his harness. There was a bounce in his step, and he seemed very energetic as we were walking (at least at the early parts, before he got tired). And we hope that in seeing him, people’s perception of shelter dogs or of mixed breeds are improved. Moby’s first time in BGC. Notif...
