TONIGHT IS MY LAST NIGHT AS AN ONLY CHILD

Er I mean dog. Oh my, I am taking over the bed!

Blackie Midnight Shadoe

Hey everyone, I may be getting a new brother! Well, am not sure if I should be upset or happy? I certainly don't think there is enough space in the bed. Maybe if Jules slept on the floor. Keep your paws crossed. As long as he knows I am the Queen of this household, he will be very welcomed here indeed.

Here is the Story. Jule's colleage (a stray dog rescuer) caught hold of the dog as she saw the pound people coming. She and her family and friends have been feeding him for about 3 years. So he is rather chummy with them. So far he is the only survivor of his pack, the rest have been caught and put to sleep. So she zipped into action when she saw the pound people. With the help of a few friends, they slipped a leash on him when he was being fed.

Anyway, Jules went to her home and saw Blackie. He also saw a beagle. He was picking. And the clincher came when his friend told him that she would not have any problems finding the beagle a new home. The mongrel though had almost zero chances of rehoming as well most Singaporeans find mongrels ugly. (Pftttt to them I say). So Jules decided that Blackie would come home with us.

He is not here now. These few days Sharon and Jules won't be home much and they think that I may bite his ears off or something. So he is being homed in E's home.

Remember how Jules has been trying to catch a stray forever? Blackie is not a puppy and well I heard he is not as cute as I am. But still I do hope he comes to stay with me. So, do say a prayer that Blackie will become part of our family.

VERY UPSETTING STORY

Remember ASD? Well, their volunteers have been feeding strays and they found that a stray dog had not been coming for meals for a week. When it finally appeared, its right hind leg was almost all torn off, the bottom part was gone and the top showed bare stripped bone. What happened? Illegal boar trap happened. I am not a vicious doggy but I do hope Karma comes quick for the person who set the trap. I hope he gets stuck in one that he set himself.

I know I am not usually such a mean dog but if you take a look at the picture of Kiwi here, you will definitely not be a nice doggy either.

Sugar Cane

The good thing about living in the tropics are Sugar canes! I love them, they taste sweet and crunchy and are a good alternative to processed doggy treats. (Do I sound like a Sugar Cane advertisement?)

It is hard to buy Sugar Cane here. Most people drink the juice. My human had to beg the Sugar Cane Juice lady to sell him some.

Tropical heat

It is really uncomfortable sometimes to be a doggy in this tropical climate. Its always hot, hot, hot. So hot, there have been bush fires. I do feel like shaving off all my fur at times. So occasionally I get an ice cream treat. Mmmmmmm...

Conversations in the Brown Abode

When humans talk about their doggies, they talk about how cute they are, what they ate and so on...does it happen here?

Nooooo, I am subjected to the indignity of listening to stories about my...ahem...most private act. (Ok ok, granted I do it in front of the entire neighbourhood, but still, a brown doggy needs her space)

Sharon: She pooped quite a bit today...saw some little bits in her poop. They looked yellow.

Jules : Oh yeah, that must have been the corn she ate last night.


Jules: Man she had a long poop today.

Sharon: You mean she took a long time before she finally pooped? Or she pooped for a long time?

Jules: No, I meant her poop was long, so long she had to raise her butt up for it all to come out and not touch her.


Sharon: She is really naughty.

Jules: How so?

Sharon: She held her poop cos she knows after she poops, she has to come home.

Jules: How do you know?

Sharon: Cos part of her poop came out and she made it go back in again!

Jules: GENIUS Doggy!!!

Poor Doggy

I hope he is happy. I think he is because he has his human and he (the dog) looks clean and healthy.

When will they be back?

Did they forget me already? I am a very lonely doggy when they are at work. Do they think about me at all?
