Bailey, a miniature schnauzer, is the best pet and companion we have ever had. She's part of our family. Here's 10 facts you must know about Bailey and you'll understand why we love her so much.
1) Bailey's favorite bedtime CD is "Disney's Greatest Love Songs" and her favorite track is "He's a Tramp" (reason: there's dog barking in the songs).
2) Bailey's favourite food is toast bread and apple. She can't stand it when the toaster goes off with a 'ding' sound when the toast is ready, she'll start trembling and salivating until you share your toast with her.
3) Bailey has lotsa nicknames, it ranges from "vacuum cleaner", "fatty bombom", "fei mui", "lazy bumbum", "Xiao pengyou"to "beepbeep". Call her any of the above name, she'll respond. My sister, the proud owner of Bailey likes to call her "B", as in the initial of Bailey, not shortform for baby though.
4) Bailey remember the name of all her toys. She has "honker" and "Bert" (beanie baby, characters from Sesame Street), rope (she has wrecked quite a number of them in the past), bunny (purple bunny soft toy), bee-boo (squeaky toy that make a sound when you press it), lion, bearbear, etc etc etc. She simply love to play!
5) Unlike most dogs, Bailey loves car rides! She rides from home to my mom's place everyday and return home at night when her duty is over (P/S. She works as the security guard at my mom's place. Her salary? apples!)
6) Like most toddlers, Bailey has a pillow that she been sleeping with since she join our family. It's like her security pillow. Strangely, her pillow doesn't smell, it has baby's scent actually! My sis actually loves to sniff Bailey's pillow! What a weirdo!
7) Bailey snores in her sleep. Sometimes she wails n cries in her sleep when she has bad dreams. Oh! We also caught her drooling in her sleep one time! Must have been dreaming about a scrumptious spread of yummy food in that dream! ha ha...
8) Bailey is very adventurous when it comes to food. She is never picky about food. From mooncakes, nasi briyani with curry chicken, ayam percik, chewing gum to washing detergent and ant pesticides, she'll help herself with anything she fancy when she is left at home alone.
9) Bailey is a sucker for air-conditioning. Whenever we turn on the air conditioning, she'll find herself the best spot where she can get direct air condition. At night, she will only sleep soundly when the air-conditioning is turned on. Don't bother about energy saving and sleep with fan on instead, she'll toss and turn the whole night!
10) Bailey has great memory. If we tell her we bought something for her, she'll keep following us around, pestering us until we give her what she was promised. Most of the time, we'll buy her a piece of rock melon when we packed lunch from outside.
My mom, who never like dogs, has grown to love Bailey so much that she take afternoon nap with Bailey lying next to her. She's probably the best dog in the world, in OUR world at least. As my mom always says, "No more stock already. This is the last one" - the last of the best dog in the world! =)
