Visits to the vet

Dear Diary,

The past two months have been a nightmare to me!! Mummy took me to the vet many times. I was vomitting and also had a fever. My teeth was in terrible condition. My annual vaccination was also due.

Mummy panicked when I vomitted blood despite visiting the vet. She rushed me to a second vet who gave her some sound advice. I felt better after that and the vomitting stopped.

Shortly after my recovery, Mummy took me to the vet again for a dental check-up. Three teeth were extracted! Ouch! The staff at the clinic locked me up in a cage. I HATE CAGES!! I barked loudly and scratched the cage to get out but they did not let me go!!

Hope I don't have to go back to the vet again!!

Regards,
Sunday

Forever young

Dear Diary,

I've not made an entry for the longest time. Mummy took me to the clinic early this month. I was very brave. I didn't shiver and struggle as much compared to last year and those years before last. I am a brave girl now!!! Mummy was so proud of me... The doc told her I am healthy..er except my teeth needed some scaling and it had to be done within a year from now due to my age. SHe mentioned casually that I was getting old...

OLD....do I look old??? I can jump up and down Mummy and Daddy's bed anytime I want. Mind you..the bed is much taller than me...

Mummy's colleagues told her that I look very young and pretty. I even had a one-year-old Mini Schnauzer going gaga over me. Many people in my neighbourhood think I am still a puppy! How can she call me "OLD"???

Forever youthful and sweet Sunday

Dear Diary,

It is Chinese New Year again. Mummy and Daddy celebrate Chinese New Year every year. As some of their relatives are EXTREMELY frightened of dogs, I don't get to go out with them during CNY. I hate CNY as I will be left alone at home........Boo Hoo...

This year, Mum bought a nice cheongsam for me so that I can wear it to Grandma's house for reunion dinner. Do you know that the reunion dinner is significant to the Chinese as it is the day when family members gather to have dinner? Relatives who live overseas will come back for this special dinner.

Everyone is ready for the reunion lunch now... we are going to Great Grandma's house for reunion dinner later in the evening..I got to run.. need to perform tricks to beg for food...


Happy Lunar New Year
