Arrival Story:
Choki was a young male local dog around 6 mo (we call this breed as "anjing kampung") with a bad skin problem that abondened by his previous owner and found his way to our neighbourhood. Nobody wanted to get near with him just like he was such a most disguisting creature in the world. I gave some medication on his skin in very extra-ordinary way (little bit pushy since he was a wild street dog) and it worked. He turned out to be a handsome young guy with his golden coats. He stayed at the park or house's terrace, helping guarding our cars from burglars. Unfortunately not everybody were happy with him. One of my neighbour didn't like him very much since he was barking too much at night (disturbing their sleeps) and had fights with their dogs. They beat Choki to almost dead at my terrace. I took him inside my house to safe his life, he was around 1,5 yo at that time.

Bio:
Choki used to eat from trash bins when he still lived out there , so he knows how delicious the human food scrap tastes (cooked bones, chilli sauce, etc), it took almost 1 yr to make him love dog food and other doggie snacks. Some of his nerves is not working properly, he easilly gets excited and accidentally could give you a scratch . It's quite a hard decision to make when bringing him inside, because we have 2 dogs already in our small house, and Choki was very wild. We could not even touch him and he was full with wounds, ticks &fleas. After adapting for a sleepless solid one week, he tried to be a good house dog. You can see his face now full of "please pet me more", one thing he never did when he was out there. For several times Choki caught uninvited strangers that tried to climb our 3 meters backyard wall. He knows how to thank us back very well :)
