Hot weather, hot pan floor

The weather's been a bitch lately at malaysia. A good advice to every dog owner, do not walk your dog when the floor is teppanyaki hot!

I made a mistake today. Its a every shower routine and habit to apply oil and then tie her to one of the fence pillar to dry her, while i wash the floor. Today i notice something different.

She turns round and round..  then start licking the floor and sit on the area she licked. Then she stand up again.. repeat what she do.. after a moment it hits me that oh ya the floor is damn hot.. very quickly i untie her leash and get her in the shaded area..

Sometimes dog owner do have mistakes like that and we wont even notice. Just be careful. If the floor is so hot your barefoot can't stand it why do you think the dog can?

It's just a quick advice from a mistake i made. Remember to also refill your dog's water bowl from time to time. I hate this weather!!!

Cheers,

Snowie can swim!!

It was Pixie's birthday!!

So Snowie gets to swim since the party is at K9 cottage!!

look at her.. she's swimming very well now .. love it!!

also, it's happy to see first timer dogs swim. i always encourage owners to bring their dogs for a swim. it's good for joint, health etc..

and this, is minmin's first swim. she actually did a great job that she didn't panicked like snowie does on her first. :)

Scurvie gets on my nerve!!

i put her to training.. everything's well, everything's good! i put the blame on myself.. recently i'm really losing patience on her. especially when she gets stubborn!

Small issues like when she wouldn't walk properly like she do during walks without Snowie.. she won't walk beside me..almost like me dragging her. Without Snowie, she's way too perfect for walk.

                               this is her unwilling to get out of the car..
For her a "no" means a "no".. she doesn't want it, she won't do it. how's her progress in training? VERY GOOD... in the first two classes!! food is the KEY to her success!! without food, i'd break my wrist to get her to "Sit"! and i really did hurt my wrist!

this fellar is way too smart for people like me to control. Her stubborn level really drive me crazy! breathhhhhhhh~~

Crazy fosterer,

Brilliant novel | Out of Shadow by Jason Wallace

"If i stood you in front of a man, pressed the cold metal of a gun into your palm

and told you to squeeze the trigger, would you do it?"

"No, Sir"
"Are you sure?"
"Of course Sir, No ways!"

"What if i then told you we'd gone back in time

and his name was Adolf Hitler? 

Would you do it then?  Would you?

that's it. something interesting to start with. it took me really long time to get myself into reading this book (i'm quite lazy recently). then i start reading again. i keep flipping back to what i've missed. 

i finished reading this book. it surprise me with how good it is! this book is about a british boy went to Africa to study due to his father's job in the embassy. The war in Africa just end with Mugabe as their new president.

okay the rest go read it yourself. i'd say this is a very brave masterpiece showing the reality of racial issues that occur between human and human. in fact! it is. 

i cried for something in the end. this book is about REALITY! REALITY! and REALITY!! there is no right or wrong. but if i'm Robert Jacklin. i will maybe do the same thing. 

this book is so emotional and it really did show how a word -"R.E.G.R.E.T" can affect your whole life. that's the reason i cried and can't go to bed at night.(yeah i'm one of those who will put myself in one of the character in a book).sometimes you won't know.. the fact that a person's death is not as pathetic as a regret.

okay~ very short post on a novel! hope i can be more active writing up post. :)

Cheerio,

the saddie Yi Jacklin :[

梦啊梦~~

                                           (picture taken from 周公解读)
上个月的事吧。。梦到妈祖神像被烧，我和妈妈强救火。。可是妈祖神像头和手开始断了。我一下就吓醒。。很少会在把梦当一回事。。可是这次我既然上网查，“梦到妈祖神像被烧解读”。 该网站解说，梦到神像是好事，梦到神像被烧是大难将来临！

我在想，我没工作，我爸不爽我，我伤到头，肚子，和手（发作），我还有什么大难叻？所以我过几天就把事情忘了，还不是梦一个？

我一直都不知道我喜欢做些什么工作。只知道，我很喜欢狗。我应征了几份工。其一是兽医护士。因薪水不合我把工作推了。。实在有些后悔。也过了几个星期，开始觉得很伤心。最近在ara damansara当钢琴教师，学院隔壁就是兽医管。每次经过，都会特别伤心，失望，后悔。夸张的是，最近既然伤心得无法恢复心情。哈哈！

结果就让我想起了这个很久的梦。“妈祖”就是“机会”；“妈祖”燃烧时我就像梦里的我，也许可以救的？可是我最终还是看着一份这么好的“机会”从我的手里消失。 那把火，不就是我的手吗？
虽说，这只是我的想法，可是还是想劝劝各位：

我们的手就像一把火，可以灭，可以烧。是好是坏，还不是要看看火烧得多猛吗？“神”可以救你一次；机会可以来几次；如果一再再的“不领情”，可能下次你一再再的“求神”，“神也不会再出现啦。。：）

反省吧。。

仪，

--如果你好奇，梦里的我，最后救不了火--
p.s/= 我中文不好多多包涵 :P

Scurvie goes RAW!

due to her severe skin scratching i take up advice from a rescuer friend and started doing research online.

scurvie love raw so much! i started with small amount on first day without bone. i wouldn't say im following the barf diet. I'm more to prey mode. but some times i do add some vege in her meal although it's not necessary anymore.

honestly i didn't like the smell of meat and now that i hv to handle so much meat feeding.. argh my skin began to crack from washing hands too often. i also get itchy from soap chemical react. hopefully this diet change can help her skin improve! I'd do anything!
