As the saying goes, No Man is an Island. This also rings true for dogs which live in packs and for the last 3 years I've been the only dog in my pack. The addition of Pepper has elevated my ranking in the pack. Upon assuming the role of (kick ass - I mean this literally) mentor to her, I've decided to reflect on my Top 5 Super Heroes and their Sidekicks. Because let's face it, at one time or another, an extra pair of hands (or 2 extra pair of paws!) comes in handy.
5) Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee
|  | 
| Imagine how scenic their photo montage must be! Hobbiton, Rivendell, Lothlorien. Sure Mordor and the Mines of Moria are a bit dour but it's like driving through South Central
 to get to Santa Monica - a bonding experience that gives Samwise more chance
 to be all protective (in a creepy stalker-ish way) to Frodo
 | 
4) Lone Ranger and Tonto
|  | 
| I've always wondered why Lone Ranger had a sidekick. I mean, his name insinuates that he should be keeping the wild west safe by his LONE-some self.
 Maybe his humans made him adopt Tonto...I feel you man, I really do
 | 
3) Captain Kirk and Spock
|  | 
| I'd have thought that In a future where we have Universal Translators, Transporters and Replicators we'd be able to do away with sidekicks.
 But Captain Kirk would be lost without Spock. Humans...ever so needy!
 | 
2) Han Solo and Chewbacca
|  | 
| I've always had a soft spot for Chewbacca. Misunderstood and a shadow to Han Solo when he is clearly the brains behind the operation.
 Plus he is just so dreamy, that luxurious fur and gorgeous colouring.
 I think my coat quite complements his!
 | 
1) Batman and Robin
|  | 
| I've always wondered why Batman dressed Robin up in a red top and green short shorts.Surely this gives him away when they are
 trying to blend into the night fighting crime!
 I suppose since Robins come and go Batman must have thought he
 is easy enough to replace.
 | 
And now:
|  | 
| Vicky and Pepper. The latest super hero and sidekick in Bukit Jelutong. And like Batman, I think all sidekicks are replaceable (I'm talking to YOU Pepper!)
