why,shes none other than my pet dog ...ANGEL! :)

















isnt she a cutie? i must admit that shes not really photogenic la...actually, she looks much better offline...wahaha..

ok.lemme tell u a story of how angel came about...

it was a gloomy october in the year 2004, and i was feeling very lonely cos another person who's very dear to me had to be away for work. i was lonely and bored with life when my mom suddenly decided that we should get another puppy!...and a FEMALE puppy it shall be,cos so far, we've only managed to rear male pups. male pups are troublesome in a way that they urinate anywhere,anytime and er.. anyday! put something new on the floor...say, a new flower pot...before you could blink your eyes thrice and say OMG!.....there you can c a puddle of urine beside the flower pot. thats how amazing male dogs are. LOL. are male humans any different?????WAHAAHAH

okok..so im deviating from my original topic.

so back to Angel.

hmm..after much thought, me n my mum decided to get a Shih Tzu (pronounced 'shid-zoo') lor...so we went to this pet shop at BDC and looked around for cute puppies. One cage that particularly caught my attention was this 3 little furry puppies who were jumping up and down, begging for us to let them out...AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW how cute! :)

so she asked the pet shop owner whether or not there are any females among the 3. the owner said that the ONLY female there has already been booked by someone from Miri. Darn it! i was so disapointed!

then ...miracle of all miracles....my mom suddenly found out that the owner was a foochow and when my mom started to speak foochow to him....my my...it was a different situation altogether! the owner said (in foochow ,that is) "OH!..u like that female puppy??? okla ..i can just sell it to you!..."

my mom "HA?then what about the person in Miri?"

owner " Oh! its ok! i just send over the male dogs lo. i will tell her, the female dogs are all sold out"


The power of being able to speak FOOCHOW! ..wahahahaha

so joy of all joys...we finally managed to get the little puppy back...IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT!

for the next few weeks...i was spending less time on my sleep and more on her.
she had to be fed 4 times a day, once in the morning, at around 7am...not earlier and not later, once in the afternoon,once in the evening and once b4 bed.

she was really like a human baby...once, when my parents were outstation. i had to wake up at 7am just to feed her. but i didnt wake up on time *grinz* and as a result, Angel suffered from diarrhea and i had to clean her 'boot-boot' for her...arrgghh...the horror!!!

but she was really loveable! and i could say that shes very intelligent. We managed to potty train her when she was just around 2 mths old. She would always do her business on top of a newspaper that we would prepare for her. If the newspaper is too soiled for her to do any more of her business,she would whine and whine until we change it for her.Cute or what??? :)

And within 3-4 months,she learned how to shake hands...ermmmmmmmm or rather shake PAWS.hehe...you say Angel shake hand! ... she will gently and slowly put her paw on your hands ...HEE!

and then theres the "Angel Lie Down" command and "Angel Kung Si-Kung Si" command where she would move her paws up and down in a GONG XI FA CAI manner...lol

hmm...and did i forget to mention that i already have a cat at home during the time we bought Angel? well, this is another amusing part...Angel, ADORES my cat! (Miko)

When she sees Miko lying around in the car porch, she would try to use her paws to pat Miko's head. Miko being that CAT that she is ...would snarl at Angel and with her back arched,she would try to scratch Angel with the cat fight movement. Angel being innocent would think that Miko's trying to PLAY with her..and she would also make the same movements.

As time goes by, i guess Miko got tired of treating Angel like a DOG..and they both got along fairly well now. Altho, now that Angel is a full grown dog Miko would most often get knocked down by a very excited Angel.

When Miko comes back from her nightly prowl...Angel would be there to sniff Miko's paws..all her 4 paws...her head...and of cos...her "behind" ...just to find out where did Miko went to i guess...

hmm so there's my story of my little pet dog...Angel... :)

Angel shaking hands....errr... i mean PAWS


















Angel with her dirty froggie chew toy.


p/s Angel's dirty fur around her mouth is not due to the fact that i have not bath her for months. her fur always turns this dirty color whenever she wets her fur while drinking. Red Sponge you remember that! [-(
