This is our rescue dog Biskwit.  My son had been bugging me to write something about him or talk about how we rescued him on our Podcast  The Happy Nook .   Biskwit is such an intelligent Pup. He can understand my tone.  Whenever I would walk the other two dogs ahead of him,  he would look at me and wait for me to say that I would come back for him. If I forgot to do that,  he would keep barking until I got back.    I will talk about how we  rescued him on our Podcast soon. Please follow our Podcast on Spotify and also  The Happy Nook FB Page . 

How to Become Happy-er Remember when we were children?  It was so easy to find ways to be happy. In fact we don't find happiness at all, they just come...and they're often. Now that we're adults, the opportunity to be HAPPY is getting scarce. Here's 10 tips on how to be HAPPY- er. 1. Sleep 6 to 8 hours a day. Of course we all know this already! And so,  why are we growing feathers and eyes getting wider.  Did I hear you hoot last night? Figure it out and DO something about it. 2. Eat.   Please. No one is going to do this for you. 3. Smile soon as you wake up.  Yes,  plaster that fake smile on your face for a good 5 mins.  Just do it. 4. Plant. If it dies? Plant again. If it dies again. Buy an artificial plant. Don't give up. 5. Drink warm water in lieu of coffee.  Okay, if you don't have any medical issues that forbids you to drink coffee, by all mean gulp it. 6. Deactivate Facebook, Instagr...

Many many years ago  I had a Puppy named Wawa. I used to hold her in my two tiny hands and would say, "kawawa...kawawa".    Wawa was born disabled.  Her hind legs were useless. She would walk using her two front legs and drag the 2 behind, as a result, her bare tummy gets scratched against the floor. Worried,  I asked my mother who was a dressmaker to sew her a skirt to protect her tummy from being scratched.  Wawa eventually died from an infection, she was only 2 months old. Wawa engraved her name in my heart, it has been 37 years since she passed and her memory still lives in my memory.   Our Dog Bonsi We have 3 Lhasas. The youngest is Bonsi. The big one on the pic is Bonsi. He is the fiercest one.  He's so brave he would run after kids passing by in front of our house. He's so protective of us his family.

My Aspin Gwangsy, always has a plastered smile on his face   whenever  I'd  come home.   Looking into his "smirky" face,   it's  as  if he's  saying,  "I knew  you'd come b ack  ha! ha!  I  was  right!"   It's  almost  as if he's too  proud of his wit  that he  thinks he's wiser  than  me. Well, at  least  that's what  his  smile  looked like. 6 months ago, one sunny morning,  Hubby told me almost in a hush that  Manong Cesar, the village handyman has  puppies inside a box. Curious, I checked out the puppies myself and fell in love in one of the two tiny brown blue-eyed puppies.  Pedigree Dog Food! Mang Cesar lives in a makeshift temporary home, his  only means of living was fixing whatever is broken in  households inside our small village. I asked Mang Cesar if I  can have the male...
