the entry that barks "i ruff you"

i am about to share another little part of my life. no, it has nothing to do with the fact that i have a problem with flatulence or that i have really bad breath in the morning. it also has nothing to do with me jumping into the arms of another person when i see a flying insect within close proximity.

i would like this opportunity to introduce the smallest member in our family, and again no, i am not referring to my elder brother's _________ (fill in the blanks). enter rufus (pronounced as roof-us), a 5-year old english cocker spaniel, that is all 22 delightful pounds of cheek-pinching cuteness.

the m-shaped unibrow double as eyeshades when it comes to sleeping time.


cocker spaniels are known for being faithful, quiet and outgoing. they are social creatures that when excited, they tend to not only wag their tail, but their entire fanny pack as well. rufus proves to be everything that they're not, save the last bit about that ass-grinding. instead, he ingratiates himself with whoever has food, or dangles something that looks like food, barks at the slightest drop of a pin, and slumbers through the rest of day, only to repeat the cycle mentioned above. charming, isn't he?




a day in the life of rufus: shut-eye, hibernate, snooze.


finally awake, in a visibly sleepy attempt to trawl around for food.


but still, we adore you ruffy!!! here's to you. >.<
