Club4Paws, Bishan DR n Rain& Shine's Home - 11 Apr 2009

2009-04-23T16:25:00.021+08:00

This morning, we went to Club4Paws again. We should also note that today is the first day where Shine meimei jumps into the pool herself. We din get the chance to swim alot as the owner will 2 huge black dogs came and dirty the pool again. We proceed to the cafe to rest and dry up before going to Bishan DR.

During waiting, something interesting happened.. I hold Rain gorgor's paw. Our pawrents were so amazed that they took many pics of us.

See! They keep disturbing until we keep looking around.. Cannot even enjoy a quiet moment together. Mummy say I modern girl, cos I make first move lor.. hehe

When we reach Bishan, there was a big pile of mud water. Initially, we went to the smaller area.. But after a while when the pawrents got tired from standing, they decided to go over. First time for me to see mud. I slowly walked up, smell the water and happily drink some. Not bad at all!

We carried on playing with each other.. Of cos we din try to go nearer to the mud but our pawrents keep shouting at us to keep off... See some pics of us having fun..

Ginger jiejie also manages to find 2 balls here. Auntie Janet says that she prefers her to find money instead.. haha..

It started drizzling so we left, with Mummy sending Ginger jiejie, Rain gorgor n Shine meimei back. Mummy and me went up to Rain n Shine's as mummy need to use their washroom. I manage to find a veg stick to chew.. I knew that Rain and Shine will try to snatch the stick from me so I manage to find a place that they wouldn't wanna go near... Their own pee tray!! Hahaha.. They only sat at the side and looked at me while I continue to chew on my delicious stick. They wouldn't want to come near the pee tray! I'm saved!!

As mummy need to rush off to pick daddy, I cannot stay long at their house. So till next weekend!!

TJ Beach, Katong DR, Bubble's House - 10 Apr 2009 (Good Friday)

2009-04-13T13:41:00.004+08:00

Today we are going to TJ beach for a good swim. Mummy bought a big surf board for me as I'm scared to swim. Mummy also bought a big cooler box to keep me and my friends lunches. We went to pick up Ginger jiejie and Auntie Janet before heading down to Sentosa.

*Mummy: I only tell Zhu wat she wanted to hear. She doesnt know that both items are actually for my own use.. hehe

When we reach TJ beach, boy do our pawrents brought along alot of stuffs. There are 2 picnic tables and also another bigger surf board. There were lots of food on the table but i'm more interested to play with Rain, Shine and Bubble when we reached there.

Check out all the fun we had swimming and surf boarding!!

After so much exercising, we had to rest and sun tan on the beach..

After resting is treats time!!

After a while more of swimming and sun tanning, all of us head to Katong Dog Run. Its our 1st time there and Bubble's 2nd time. I cant wait as mummy says that we are going to have our lunch there.. Lunch!!

The sky was getting darker and it started to drizzle. Our pawrents hurried us up and they decided on plan C.. Bubble jie jie's house!! Yeah!!

At bubble's jiejie place, all of us were very tired.

And I slept like a dead puppy.. =P

As we and our pawrents were all very tired, we decide to head home early. Tomor is Club4Paws swimming time again...... I would like to gently remind mummy again that I'm not a fish...

*Mummy: Pls ignnore her complains. I need her to know how to swim properly so that in the future if i ever almost drown, she is still able to rescue me and swim me to safety. =P

Class 95 Dog Walk, Rain & Shine House - 05 Apr 2009

2009-04-07T10:36:00.010+08:00

This morning I woke mummy n daddy up at 5 30am. I know today is going out time so very eager n excited. Mummy still wanna sleep longer so daddy woke up to play with me for a while. We reached BDR around 7 30am and there were already lots of people walking around. I met up with Rain gor gor and Shine mei mei. I also got to meet new friends. They are camry, chevro, cayenne, belly and button. I also saw ginger jie jie's boyfriend Lucky there! Its really overwhelmed with so many familiar smells of my friends n other furballs... We are all too busy getting to know each other, humans and furkids, that only Janet Auntie and Eva Auntie were the only one taking photos.

With courtesy from Janet and Eva Auntie! Thanks a Million!!

Glenn and the Flying Dutchman

As I got training with CD trainers at Pasir Ris Farmway, we left BDR at around 10am. On the way there, I slept soundly through out the whole journey. During the training, Chris the trainers praised me for being good and obedient. Little did he know that I'm actually still half asleep.. haha.

We later met up with Bubble to go Rain & Shine's house again. Ginger jiejie is with them all this time. They also went to US Dog Bakery to pick up some delicious food for us.. I can't wait.

Our stupid parents suddenly wanted to play dress up on us... sigh..

And we had great fun at their house too!! With all the delicious food n treats that is..

Our happy faces....

Club4Paws, DoMo House - 29 Mar 2009

2009-03-31T13:51:00.006+08:00

Don't ask me why mummy keep bringing me to Club4Paws okie? Mummy tells me that she wanted me to be more like ginger jiejie, that is can swim like a dolphin. Mummy, I'm a dog remember? And with ginger jiejie keeps flauting her swimming skills, how not to learn??

When we reached there, mummy suddenly ask me to go near to another JRT thats boarding there. Mummy keeps telling me that he looks very much like me. Maybe my real daddy??

For you to judge.....

We continued with our usual swimming and Shine meimei finally joinned us with her ma only. Her pa and Rain gorgor sleeping at home lor.. So hao ming... Some friends were there too!!

Around 2 plus, we sat in Aunty Bee's car and went to fetch Rain and his pa. Know where we going to? No, not Bishan Dog Run. hey are gonna introduce 2 new friends to me this time. Wah.. They all very good to me. Yester at Bishan dog run there was Jojo, this time round is who??

We reached the front doorstep of a house and were greeted with barks. Let us meet Dodo

And Momo

And together they are DoMo!

We had lots of fun playing, running and biting each other. It was real fun to know the 2 new jiejies. Momo even though smaller is size, but she definitely runs like a bullet. Dodo has the nicest fur I've ever seen and to think that she actually had skin problems last time??? Think their pawrents must be taking care of them very well.

We were so happily playing when our pawrents suddenly ask us into a room and try to settle us on a sofa. How can we stay still for so long?? You see how they try lor.

Because we were spaced too far apart and the 6 of us can't fit into the frame, our pawrents have to shift us again. It was chaotic lor....

Finally after around 2 minutes of waiting time, the final one and only picture with the 6 of us all in. *phew*

And dunno why after the pic was taken, everyone left except for me and Rain gorgor... *shy shy*

Our pawrents find that Rain gorgor and Dodo jiejie look alike so took this pic. Rain pa is camera shy so he trying very hard to hide behind lor. hehe..

We had a wonderful day at DoMo's place and you can see that I'm already exhausted from the 2 days of acitivites.

Still, next weekend here i come!!!!!!

CLub4Paws, Rain&Shine Home, Animal Resort, Bishan DR - 28 Mar 2009

2009-03-31T08:51:00.010+08:00

Hi everyone! Sorry for not updating my blog till now.

Mummy went out in the middle of the night with daddy, dunno where they went. I waited by the door patiently for them to come back. When they are finally back after around 2 hours, mummy had some cloths tied around her hand. I thought it was my new toy so i happily jump up and try to bite it. Mummy and Daddy scolded me for doing it. Daddy told me mummy's hand was in pain so ask me not to do it again. They went back to the bedroom and I followed them in. I slept till daddy woke up to go work. After daddy left for work, I went back into the bedroom to accompany mummy to sleep. I did not disturb mummy cause she seems so tired.

It was only till 9plus that mummy woke up. Not sure what happened but saw mummy packing my things getting ready to go out. I'm so happy. Can go out to play loh!!!

The trip there was a bit weird. I got into a car that don't belong to mummy. Through out the journey, I didn't dare to get down from mummy's lap. The smell seems foreign to me...

We reached Club4Paws and met up with ginger jiejie and Aunty Janet. Needless to say, we had fun there. I even step down to the step in the pool and that made mummy very proud of me. I wanted ginger jiejie to play with me but she ignores me and continue playing with her ball. She even scolded me lor.. *sad sad*

As usual after the swim, I love to sun tan to keep myself warm.

Later on a few other fur friends came to join us for a swim.

We left the place at around 12 plus and "walked" to Rain & Shine's home. Half way, we stopped by the coffee shop for mummy to da bao some food for her and aunty Janet. We actually took around half an hour to walk from Club4Paws to Rain & Shine's home. Of cause that walk was nothing to us. When we reached their house, mummy n Aunty Janet immediately tuck into their lunches while we have our own fun!

Around 2 plus, we move off to Animal Resort aka Cursed Place in Rain & Shine pawrents' car. Its the same like mummy's car but got alot of Rain gorgor and Shine meimei's smell in it. I felt right at home and very soon fell asleep.

The weather was still pretty good when we reached Animal Resort. Finally after 3 tries!! No more "cursed" place le. The four of us wanted so much to run around freely at the dog run areabut our pawrents say that the grass is too long and the place looks dirty. We end up exploring the place. 1st time i've seen so many different kind of animals!!

Heard mummy saying about going over to Bishan Dog Run instead to wait for a new friend Jojo. I can't wait to meet her!!

Everyone, this is my new friend Jojo.

She is a bit shy and takes some time to warm up with us. We try not to disturb her too much and let her feel comfortable around us 1st. At one time, she even came over to smell my butt!! Our pawrents have repeatedly tell us to be nice with Jojo. Isn't she pretty??

I'm super duper tired now. You guys enjoy the rest of the pics while I squeeze in with my mummy n daddy to sleep. I need all the energy I have for tomor's outing and meeting another 2 new friends!!

Why Mummy name me Zhuzhu - 27 Mar 2009

2009-03-27T09:16:00.003+08:00

If you guys out there have been wondering why Mummy calls me Zhuzhu even though I'm a dog, please check out the following clips.....

Needless to say, mummy doesn't feel bad at all for disturbing me while i'm sleeping. I also cannot be bothered with her lah..

Training, Sentosa and Bishan Dog Run - 22 Mar 2009

2009-03-22T21:52:00.006+08:00

This morning I'm having my 3th lesson but 4th class obedience training at Pet Movers. Mummy always complain about the smell coming for the dog run there so she doesn't want me to go in. Sigh.. No more fun for me... After the an hour and a half training, mummy brought me to the vet. Oh, I so hated that place. Why there again?? Mummy was worried about a swell that has developed from yesterday's swimming and since we are going to Sentosa for a swim, mummy wants to get me checked 1st.

doc confirmed that I had infection and I should refrain from swimming in the sea. Did I hear no swimming allowed?? Oh boy was I happy. No more cold water at least for now. Yeah!! Of cos I din tell mummy lah. Dun wan her to be upset as she has been trying very hard to make me get used to the cold water and swimming. I'll try harder mummy, after I gotten beta that is.. haha..

We reached Sentosa at around 1 40pm. Meet up with Ginger jiejie, Rain gorogr, Shine meimei, Bubble jiejie and their pawrents. As I cannot swimming, i can only stay at the shelter with the sun and the sand but not the sea. Anyway, I had fun eating up the delicious things found in the sand that really made mummy angry. hehe. Its was around 3 plus that we pack things up and the rest took their turns to shower. We made our way to Bishan Dog run after we are all dried up. Its been a while since we last drop by Bishan dog run.

Once we reached there, we noticed that the gound was wet and muddy. Only the smaller area looks okie but we don't really care, we just want to have fun!! Our pawrents were complaining about not having a place to sit, i wanted to tell mummy to learn from me that sitting n lying anywhere is just fine. haha..

Ginger's mummy went to the bench to take a rest after our pawrents have stand there for more than 2 hours, leaving Ginger jiejie crying on the other side of the fence. After a while mummy also follow suit and I couldn't help but follow ginger jiejie and start crying too. Our pawrents manage to hang around till 6 30pm before all decided that going home is the best choice.

I'm so tired too. Bed, here I comeeeee!!!

*Mummy: Dear All, Zhu is very tired n I restricted her in accessing the internet so that she can rest properly. I will let her update you guys again once she has recovered her energy. Thks...

Club4Paws, Rain & Shine's Home, The Animal Resort and Urban Pooch - 21 Mar 2009

2009-03-22T20:35:00.013+08:00

Harlow everyone!! It was a busy n fun day for me today thats y it took me so long to update this blog. This morning as usual, I woke up 6 30am and woke mummy n daddy up. We have a string of activities lined up n I cant wait to get out of the house!!

1st place was Club4Paws. There was an event held and organised by an elderly home. There were also talks on how to became therapy dog and Ginger's ma has been telling mummy that I can be one cos I'm very guai.. hehe.. They still dunno my true colours yet.. haha.. The moment we reach there, Ginger jiejie can't wait to get into the pool and was at the gate waiting to get in. But those people there says that only after the event than we can use the pool. Ginger jiejie so sad. I of cos dont mind lah. Wait I cold cold again lor.

Some friends that were there. Of cos Ginger jiejie also lor..

There were also games played during the event and we collected quite a number of goodies!!! Ginger jiejie and her mummy even won 1st prize for a "magic carpet ride" game. We have to stand with our mummies or daddies on the newspaper. Using only one leg, mummies or daddies have to fold a piece of newspaper until the smallest possible and still manage to stand on it. Me and mummy tried our best too but we are still no match for ginger jiejie n her mummy!!

After the fun games, the pool was opened up and ginger jiejie run in eagerly. Me jus follow whole heartedly behind lah. Me was been carried into the pool like always, as I dislike the cold water, and did a few strokes. Its was during one of the time when mummy wanted to put me in that she noticed I've a scratch on my mummy. That scratch saved me from the cold water as mummy worried that it might get worse. Ginger's mum took quite a few good shots of ginger jiejie doing her jumps. Not bad at all!!

We went to Rain & Shine's home for some get together and some indoor playtime before going to The Animal Resort. The sky was getting darker and that worried mummu and daddy. I dont really care and continued playing with Rain & Shine, and sometimes ginger jiejie too! Think me and Ginger jiejie can get along fine in the weeks to come. hehe..

Me being naughty actually did a stun that the mummies and daddies find it disgusting. I can swollow a milk bone whole and vomit it out again before continue chewing. I can even do it a few times!! haha..

We left Rain & Shine's home at around 2 50pm and headed down to The Animal Resort to meet a new friend Bubble and her pawrents. Mummy has been complaining on the very very dark clouds forming but i couldn't care less. Slept through the whole journey lor.

Once we reached The Animal Reosrt, it started to drizzle not long after. I saw my new friend Bubble and we smelled each other. As it started to rain heavier, we have to get to the shelter place and wait for the rain to stop. Our pawrents ordered drinks and we played around the table. I was bored so I fell asleep on muumy's lap again.

I was waken up by some commotion. After the rain has almost stopped, ginger jiejie has went out on her runs again. This time was different. She went to swim in a dirty pond and chase wild geese. Some more she refuse to come out of the pond. All pawrents were worried about her and it was Rain & Shine's daddy who came to her rescue. Hooray for him!! The whole running area was still muddy and wet from the heavy downpour so our pawrents decided to change place to Urban Pooch.

It was a nice place that sells food for humans and us, and includes boarding. In the boarding area, I can see quite a few big dogs and they are big bullies, creating quite a big chaos inside. Mummy and the other pawrents have to help to to bring them back into the shop as a few of them manage to break free from the fence and ran out. It was also here that I tried to settle my differences with Rain and Bubble, being Rain's girlfriend, defending for him. Of cos I cannot lose out lah. Dont play play hor. Ginger jiejie's blog has a few of my pics and videos and do drop by her website to see too ya.. =D

We left around 8pm from Urban Pooch and I reach home "dog" tired. After my dinner I cannot tahan any longer and went to sleep. As usual mummy took photos of my sleeping again lor...

Tomor I still have my obedience class and another outing. Time to sleep loh.. nitez!!

My Sleeping Patterns

2009-03-16T19:59:00.007+08:00

Think mummy got nothing else better to do. Always try to take photos of me wen I'm sleeping. How can?? I cannot even pose properly for mummy to take beautiful photos of me lor.

Mummy always complain that she can't take a good photo of me as I cannot keep still. So the best time is to take when I'm sleeping. Hahaha...

I very ma lu liao. Going to hide somewhere now.. byeeeee.....

Club4Paws and Bishan Dog Run - 14 Mar 2009

2009-03-14T18:33:00.008+08:00

Today i woke up later than usual. Yester nite daddy played with me till almost 12am. I'm so looking forward to today's outing. I'm going out to meet my friends!! Yeah!!!

Mummy is busy preparing the things needed for me b4 we leave. Brought treats, towels, ice and water. Mummy says that I will be swimming later, but I'm scared of cold!!! We reached club4Paws at around 10 30am. Mummy went into the shop to do registration for me as this was the first time we went there and we have to be member before we can use their facilities. A nice chap say that he has to bring me to their backyard for a temperamental test. Needless to say, I passed with flying colours!!

We proceed straight to the swimming pool and boy was I nervous. Mummy went about playing fetch with Ginger Jiejie first and I have the time to explore the area for a while. I know I wasn't spared when mummy called for me. Mummy carried me to the slightly deeper end of the pool and it is sooooo COLD!!! When I manage to get myself out of the water, I was shivering non-stop. Luckily, Mummy brought my towel there and dry me up. I wasn't that cold anymore and was ready for more fun with the rest of my friends there.

In the afternoon around 1pm, we make way to Rain gorgor and Shine meimei's home. Mummy had lunch there while I had the nicest milk bone for the first time in my life!! Haha.. I was rite at home at their place even though i was only there for the first time. But mummy was busy playing and massaging ginger jiejie, ignoring me.. *sad sad* Shine meimei is only 19days younger than me. Think we have some kind of bond and started playing rough together. We were having so much fun that sometimes things went overboard. Mummy and shine's daddy has to stop us before we start hurting each other. This went on for many rounds. We are not tired at all!!

Around 3 10pm, we move off from my friends' house to Bishan dog run. Mummy didn't have the chance to take any photos as she is busy talking with her friends. Auntie J is busy taking pictures and videos of us all the time. Think I have a very pretty picture with her. =D We left in a short while as mummy has to fetch daddy from work. This is how I look like when I reached home.

Till next time!! Me tired le.... zzzzzzzz

Jack Russells, Parson Russells or Rat Terriers??? - 11 Mar 2009

2009-03-11T16:45:00.003+08:00

Mummy has been busy today searching online and discussing with Ginger's Ma on what is our actual breed.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Russell_Terrier

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parson_Russell_Terrier

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat_Terrier

I have the basic features of JRT, PRT and RT. I have the size of JRT (10" to 15"), smaller than PRT (12" to 14") and RT (13" to 18"). I have the spots and pointed ears of an RT. I have smooth coat like JRT and PRT. I also have docked or bobbed tail like PRT and RT.

After a good one hour of reading through the websites and conversations, mummy finally decided that I'm a Jack Parson Rat Russell Terrier. Long right? Hahaha... Ginger's Ma says that we are just who we are and all mummies and daddies will still love us much much de.

Love Love... =D

Spay - 27 Feb 2008

2009-03-10T10:44:00.000+08:00

Mummy has asked around her friends, the internet and also the doc to see when is the best time to spay me. she has finally decided to do spay me before my 1st heat. As I'm reaching 7 months soon, mummy arranged with the doc for the surgery to be done today.

I has to stop drinking and eating from 12 midnight the night before. This morning when mummy woke up, I was waiting eagerly for my meal but it never came.. I kept following mummy around when she go around doing her daily routine, trying to hint her sometimes by licking her leg, but she still doesn't give me my meal.

At around 9 30am, mummy brought me out. I was excited, thinking that I can go have some fun today. Until I reach the clinic then I know that something is wrong. Why am I here?? When the assistant came out to bring me into the the operating room, I was already whinning. I was so scared. Mummy kept comforting me when she handed me over to the assistant and I hated her at this moment. I dun even want to look at mummy when she leave the clinic. Why is mummy leaving me behind at the place that I dislike the most???

On the operating table, the cleaned me at my tummy with some solution. Next they shave my arm so that they can poke something into me. They shave my other arm as they couldn't find my veins. Finally after a while, they poke me with a long and cold metal and I can see the liquid inside a container getting lesser and lesser. In no time, I was sleeping.

The next time I woke up, mummy was there waiting for me. Even though I was happy to see her and would forget what happened in the morning, I couldn't really move around. I can only see blur visions and wasn't in any mood to move around. Once home, mummy brought out my favourite food but due to restrict instructions from vet, mummy can only feed me 1/3 of my normal meal.I happily ate up the small potion but at a very slow pace. After that, I just lie on my bed and fall alseep till the next morning.

For the next 2 days, I have been sleeping most of the time. Doc also says that I cannot have any vigorous plays or exercise or risk an open wound. Mummy has been trying very hard to calm me down so that I wont get too exicted and hurt myself. Meals are back to normal portions and I ate them happily with no complains. I get to do whatever I want for the rest of the week. I didn't get a scolding or beating even if I accidentally pee or poo outside my pee tray. haha!! some priviledge here.. It would take around one to 2 weeks for me to fully recover.

Update on me - 09 Mar 2009

2009-03-10T10:29:00.000+08:00

I'm now a happy kid. Poo has cut down to only 2 -3 times a day and cleaning up after me was a breeze as my poo are all hard and not sticky at all!! Grandma and mummy has been very happy with my progress and I'm allowed to roam freely around the house 24 hrs!! Yoo Ho!! I even get to sleep with daddy n mummy on their bed when they are watching tv!! I do make mistakes at times as I can't hold on to my poo or pee when I'm excited but those happen only once in a blue moon. The sad part is I don't get any reward from peeing or pooing at the right place but I get the freedom I wanted ya.

Mummy, daddy and grandma commented on my fur that it looks shinier, whiter and healthier too. The bald patch is long gone with the help of medication and swimming at Sentosa occassionally. I'm of cause smiling from ear to ear when they say i'm a pretty girl. Now meals times are done within 15 seconds tops. I just love the barf patties and can't wait for the next meal everyday. Yummy!! I don't drink that much water after eating barf because the water contents in the raw meat is sufficient enough for me. Now a 250ml bottle can last me for around 4 - 5 days. Sometimes mummy thinks that it might get stale or dirty so she would just change on the 4th day.

My stitches has somewhat drop off on its own from the surgery and I'm still ever so energetic. No bald patch on my body can be seen now and I'm proud to say that I'm a healthy kid!

Below are some more pictures of me during my growing up progress.

Changing my diet - 19 Feb 2009

2009-03-10T09:42:00.000+08:00

Things hasn't been going well in the family. Grandma has been complaining to mummy everyday that I poo and pee alot of times a day. Not only that, I pee and poo all over the place in my play pen and grandma has to clean every single times. Not only that, i will step on my own pee and poo and walk all over the place, leaving a nasty trail of smell. Grandma and mummy has even argued a couple of times because of me. Daddy and mummy's relationship wasn't spared either. There was once when I saw mummy crying alone, not wanting to let others know. I was there to comfort mummy, at the same time feeling guilty for causing such unhappiness.

One day, mummy came back with a pee tray. Instead of the usual newspaper on the floor that I occassionally tear up out of boredom, I can't seem to reach the newspaper in the pee tray. Soon enough, I get tired off trying and has leave the newspaper there as it is. Mummy has been teaching me to do my business on newspaper everyday. She would reward me for doing them correctly on the tray by letting me out of the play pen to play. Still freedom was short live as with the number of times i pee and poo a day, i get scolding n beating from mummy everyday other than been lcoked up in the play pen as punishment.

Mummy has been checking online for more information on barf as her friends has highly recommend her and it would greatly help in my poo poo. Determine to solve my problem, mummy place an order online for 2 boxes of Dr. B's patties, not taking chances of letting me try first but to replace immediately with my kibbles. Mummy gave me a bit of the pork reciepe to try. At first, I try to lick and smell the new thing in my bowl. It doesn't really turn me off so I finished up the whole thing in less than 15 seconds. You see, mummy has me fasting since my 1st meal in the morning so I'm very hungry lor. The whole change of diet went smoothly. That night after the meal, i did not poo or pee at all. Oh, on another note, I can finish a bottle of 500ml water in a day when I'm kibbles. =P

Trip to the Vet - 12 Jan 2009

2009-03-10T09:10:00.000+08:00

I was having occasional cough, very soft stools and having a balding patch near my hind right leg. Mummy was worried so she brought me to see the vet. Mummy told me that she cannot trust the pet shop when they claimed that I'm in the pinkest of health.

Able to see the patch?

The nice lady doc checked my ears, scrap some skin off the bald patch, took my poo that mum has kept in a plastic bag (Yucks!) into another room for more investigations. The room was cold and I shivered slightly in mummy's arms while waiting for the doc to come back with the results. The nice doc came back with some not so good news. I have ear mites, skin mites and kennel cough. The only good news is that there isn't any stomach worms or virus found in my stools. The doc gave me 4 different types of medications and poor mummy was feeling so sad for me. Mummy was also worried about my siblings in the pet shop. sigh...

1st day in my new home - 10th Jan 2009

2009-03-09T17:47:00.000+08:00

Around 1pm, the couple walked into the shop. As me and my siblings were kept together with the rest of the older puppies, I doubt our chances are high to go to a good home. Saw them stopping and looking at the younger puppies area. Sure they are going to pick one of those cute puppies. =( They continued to walk towards my cage and finally paused and looked at me n my siblings!! At last!! We have some hope!! The couple requested for the shop assistant to let us out so that they can have a good look as us. "Freedom!!" I remembered telling my siblings, all three of us, when we were let to roam freely in the room. The lady requested the shop assistant to pick me up. I was frightened. They going hurt me? Where are they bringing me? The lady holded me and try to play with me. I was timid but playful and had some fun playing with her fingers. After a while, my bro n sis were put back into the cage, leaving me outside. I was jumping frantically, trying to get back into the cage with my siblings. "Dun leave me alone!"

After about 15 mins, the shop assistant came in to clean me up, telling me at the same time that I'm going home. "Home?" "Me?" I was shivering with fright. "What are going to do to me?? Where are they bringing me? " What about my siblings??" The couple came into the room n carried me out. As my siblings became so far away from me that I can't even see them, I felt so sad that I cried softly. The lady's hands were there to comfort me. I soon fell asleep.

I woke up when we were in a huge container. The guy was sitted beside the lady and soon this huge container began to move. I dunno whats going on but my head was like spinning around in circles. The huge container was turning left and right, stopping and moving off. "Where am I?" I couldn't hold any longer and throw up on the lady. I'm so uncomfortable. Along the way I throw up 3 more times. All on the lady. "Not bad." I was thinking. Now the container smell more like me!

We finally stopped and I was again carried out of the huge container. The couple got me into another container, followed by alot of steps, passed through a door and put me down on the floor. "This is your new home." The lady said. I was smelling, looking and licking around. Trying to make out where I am. I was later placed into a cage like area and was given some food and water. This is how I looked like.

The lady introduced herself as my mummy and the guy my daddy. The reason why they brought me home was because of my sad eyes and my ever so cute face. Mummy also told me that the shop has actually displayed my wrong age, where instead of 4 months, i'm already 5 months. It didn't bother mummy at all and mummy said that she will love me with all her hearts from now on. Funny how daddy has disappeared. hmmm....

At nite, I had some fun with mummy. Played some toys and muumy said its time to sleep. When the lights were off, and mummy went into her room, I started to think about my siblings. I was so sad that I started howling through the whole nite. Poor mummy has to come out many times to comfort me before going back to her room. I eventually fell asleep around 4am.
