All Things JacJac

Far fetched as it may sound, we have been preparing for the arrival of JacJac (yes, even the name has been thought out) from more than 2 years back even before we renovated our flat. Provisions were made to dog-proof the apartment as much as possible without compromising our vision for our home. Some examples include the washing bay, play pen areas, concealing wires and et cetera. In fact, most of JacJac's toys and equipment/accessories have been procured over the same time as and when we saw something we fancied from within and beyond the shores of Singapore. 

We have done our utmost to prepare for JacJac's arrival and can only hope that we live up to the task at hand. In fact, this is the first time that I have seen the missus put in so much effort in reading up on any subject ever (note the doggy books in the background).

There are some who have commented on the presumed apparent lack of creativity with regard to JacJac's name especially since JacJac will be (in fact, always has been) a  Jack Russell Terrier. We settled on the name of the youngest child of the Parr's for ease of pronunciation for the old folks at home, i.e. both sets of parents. And, for those of you who have yet to catch on, yes, it does imply that we are Mr and Mrs Incredible. Heh heh. For that matter, our next dog (if any) will be named Dash (male) or Violet (female).

Still don't like it? Tough luck. Get your own dog.

  2. Eh... I don't exactly understand what you are talking about, girl, but you are sure welcome to play with JacJac in due time after we've managed to get basic training sink it. In fact, we're looking to organise a gathering during the June school holidays so that Mae can bring the younglings too! I'm sure that'd be a lot of fun! ;-)
