Hi Uncle Marcus and Uncle Richard,

Me and my kor kor Mungo missed both of you dearly. Aiyah our fur parents lah esp our fur-mummy so slow in doing the testimonial for you, me and kor kor decided we will write it instead, kekekeee!!! Here goes…….

We just simply love going for daycare at Petopia. There are so many fur friends to play with and all the big human kor kors and che ches to play with us. The great thing is the air-con and the clean cool floor. You see I have very sensitive skin so I need clean and cool place, then my kor kor has his thick fur so he needs to be kept cool too. Besides playtime we also got afternoon naps so we won’t be too tired out. Plus there is this nice smelling thing that uncle Marcus and uncle Richard have in the air to make us go Ooooooooo. We just loooovvvveeeee it all.

Our dear kan cheong fur mommy always keeps her eyes on us when she’s at work via the webcam (yeah, Petopia has one….we wish they didn’t kekeeee). She’s worried we bully the other doggies at the daycare.. Pllleeeeease lor mummy as if we would…. Look at our innocent faces….. (sssshhhh… let’s not tell her what mischief we can be up to woof! Woof! woof!)

Every morning the beautiful and sexy Penelope comes to our place to pick me and kor kor up for daycare. Poor uncle Richard has to wake up so early to pick us. Sometimes as a treat uncle Marcus comes along too! Our fur parents have to go to work early so the handsome and kind uncles made special arrangements to come pick us up so mommy won’t be too late for work. We also get sent home later than the usual 5pm drop off time cos mommy is only home by 7pm. Sometimes when our parents have to work late due to company functions etc, they make special arrangements for us to be sent home later than our usual 7pm. So good rite? Yeah kor kor and me can stay at the daycare so got people look after us and our parents don’t have to worry about us being alone at home.

Mungo kor kor and me love the daycare cos we made sooo many new friends and we get tons of loving from the hu-man kor kors and che ches working there. By the time we reached home we are tired from all the activities. Oh oh oh I forgot, before we go home, we get cleaned up a bit and spritized with nice smelling cologne. Our fur parents are happy when we go to daycare esp mommy cos we don’t give her much trouble when we reach home. We have already spent all our energy running around and playing at the daycare. See this pic…. Its me and Mungo kor kor sleeping at our favourite spot – the family sofa. After daycare, we play around , get all excited cos mommy is home – we love to play with her cos she is our toy kekekeke woof! Woof! – then its Chow time. By 8:30pm we are on our sofa snoring away…..Zzzzzzzzz…….. mommy has peace and quiet. When daddy returns home, no complain from mommy what naughty boys we were – anyway mommy always exaggerates… look at our angelic faces… woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!

Oh oh oh I also forgot to mention that another person who is happy about us going to daycare is our old aunty neighbor that lives in the flat directly below us. Since we moved into this new place, she has been complaining that we are just too noisy – we are boys!!!! Now we only ‘disturbs’ her on weekends or holidays when we are not at daycare. She’s ok with that…. phew!

Wait…. (whisper, whisper, whisper… ok ok ok) … Mungo kor kor wants to say that we miss going for the spa treatments too. We just looooovvvveeeeee all the pampering and how our skin and fur feels so soft and shiny after the treatments. Think it’s time to remind mommy our spa sessions are long overdue. First we need to work on daddy, he complains mommy is spoiling us too much. Kor Kor says daddy is just jealous. Woof! Woof! Woof! I agree.

See Mungo kor kor so beautiful yeah after grooming. PS. Daddy thinks the style makes Mungo like a sissy…

Daddy is coming to check on us! Yikes! Quick switch off the computer!!! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! We got to go!

Byeeee! Lots of licks!

Mungo & Max


I can leave my house in confidence without putting an E-collar on Reeko and he has all his fur back without bald spots…

Back in May when Reeko finished his medication from the vet, things started to change.

He start to itch and slowly it turned into dandruff-like flakes. I wasn’t sure what caused it, it might have been the medication or the change of diet. But things didn’t get better. He started whining every time he came back from morning walks. He would hide in 1 corner to whine and scratch so badly that I thought he had an anxiety problem. I even brought him to the vet to check for anxiety problems.

At the end of August, the condition got so bad that he was losing fur all around his body, and he would chew himself till he bleeds. In order to keep him form biting any part of his body, I had to get an E-collar so big that it’d probably fit a large dog. At the same time, I visited two grooming salons. According to them, they would be able to help his condition, which is also when I got him shaved.

Due to the lack of explanation from their side, and the way they took care of Reeko during his healing program, I decided not to go back only after 1 session.

I came across Petopia’s website, and I decided to give it a try since I have nothing more to lose.

I met up with Marcus during my first visit to Petopia, he also showed me around the premises and explained Reeko’s skin condition to me. I like the fact that I was able to see how they conduct his spa session. I signed the spa package, partly because I was at wit’s end and partly because this is a place that I feel I can trust.

Even though the recovery process was long, it took him roughly 10 sessions to be near full recovery. Along the way, I could see that he was getting more comfortable, no longer hiding in small confined places and the dandruff slowly disappeared.

As the sessions went on, Reeko started to rest at his usual places, rolling around the bed every morning and sun tanning after breakfast. These are his usual activities which he hasn’t been able to do for months.

Now, I leave my house in confidence without putting an E-collar on him and he has all his fur back without bald spots.

Thank you Petopia :)
