No food for her till this morning, a slice of bread was given since she doesn’t want to eat her normal food.
Stopped by the pet shop today to buy her some energy food, cost RM8 only available in Vets.
As a birthday gift, we bought her a new dog collar, it shines at night if there’s any light shine upon the bone collar design. There was Black, Red and Blue, we decided on the Red to show the feminine side of her

Ready for a nap

Sorry not well, no mood

Story of a Dog

Waiting and wondering when the owners will be back to play with me? huhu….they always come back after the sun goes down….but at least we still get to play in the house! Yay! Also I love bath time, it is always fun to play with water and have water splash fight hehe

This show can really make a girl cry, specially if she has a dog that is so dear to here before or at present, your imagination will tend to go together with the owner of Marley. Didn’t know that the dog’s name, was derived from “Robert, Bob, Marley”! Haha… Breed= Labrador Retriever (Not Labra-doodle, like Sebastian said in the movie) A Dog lover would always know the breed names

Run, Marley Run!

While mine a Siberian Husky, we call her Roxy. She is almost like Marley in that show, just that she is better as we had some house training before, she listens and now a very well more obedient dog. I believe all dogs needs training and you need to be / act like a master, in order for your pet dog to obey you. They are really smart creatures and yes, a man’s best friend

Puppy curiosity

I would think that if Roxy is left alone, at the garage while she was a puppy, she would act the same like Marley, the whole garage turned down! Roxy eats almost everything, break my plant, makes Incredible Hulk’s shirt (copyright reserved; as there’s only one, haha) , newspapers, tissues like snow, slippers, socks, underwears, toothbrush, shaver, her own collar, best of all plastic bags! She Bites and Eats almost Everything! But still Marley beats her, since he had the whole answering machine swallowed without chewing according to “Owen Wilson” <–really funny guy Probably cos Marley is a He so more aggressive, can’t imagine if i had a Siberian husky male who is aggressive, they really mark their territory like Wolfs!

Although at times overly sentimental, Marley and Me is a sweet story of life with a dog. Like a child, Marley is sometimes unruly and tests their marriage, and also like a child sometimes is loving and sweet knowing just the right thing to do to make your heart melt.

Roxy & Me

Roxy Girl

Roxy is officially 1 years old today This is the naughty girl jumping up the leather couch to try out the feeling of how we sitting on it like. Just trying her luck i guess with a careful look of us coming to “shooh” her down, always active and alert girl!

I still remember the first day we brought her back, she was so small, barely 1 month old! and so cute, but poor thing she cried for mommy! But no worries, we always assure her that we will love her and have a good home for her and indeed she has. After the monthly shots to the Vet, teething problem, those puppy stages / problems are much lesser, though sometimes hormone changes or short memory of just plain stubbornness, made her repeat her same mistakes, but all comes with consequences.

This photo shows how small she is, look at her ears and mouth so short!

We started off with this

But more came along as she grows, the brush was certainly insufficient and dutch lady milk was certainly not right. She just had that for that night, and we change her to solid food the next day. I remember browsing through the internet for name for her and half way she was howling in the kitchen looking for mommy. Such a poor thing. Siberian Huskies are packed dogs, they move in packs and they always try to be pack leaders. So suddenly being taken away from her siblings and mommy’s nursing has really made her scared and crying all nite long. I even had a video of it.

Face marking and white tip tail are important traits of Sibes

Bump to sleep right away when she's too tired!

Wakes up blur-blur with her distinct look

Her first solid food meal, so hard to chew =)

L.O.V.E her soft paws

Daddy carries me!

One month old, but the collar was still loose

Annoying bell!

The Art of Rollover in dreams!

Fur was not that long, air-cond makes me shiver, so mommy covers me with blankie

But i ended up in the laundry basket!

Tug a war when young

Wanna plaaayyy...?

Now i have big strong fangs!

Beware if i bite..hahahah!

Manja girl!

Big girl already, but still a manja girl!

Happy Birthday Roxy bunny!

After a year of experience bring Roxy up, i would conclude that Siberian Huskies are very smart and intelligent dogs, the know how to listen to human beings communication!!! haha so beware! if you plan to have one! In whatever circumstances, patience is very important specially in training and correcting. But after all the hardwork, the result is gratifying with a big small of satisfaction!

Coincidently found something interesting which caught my attention most, which is about 2 Siberian Huskies were shot several times by this man who thought they were wolves came to attacked his herd of cows. They were shot on the back, leg and one of them right in the Eye! They merely survived, but I think with Sibes fighting spirit they hold-on and survived, even with 1 eye removed. More information available here http://www.dogster.com/dogs/797639 and video here http://www.wftv.com/news/17537877/detail.html . The owner was protesting and file a law suit against the shooter.

Well, just some sharing on this breed. They may look fierce and sometimes they are fierce (which dog has no temperament?, even human has, and it’s animal instinct) But generally, they are not guard dogs and they are not attackers, the work with/for human! They are known as working dogs, full of energy and strong spirit to run for miles, that is build in their genes. With generations having been in contact with human on a daily basis, this makes them very attached to humans too. Basically they want to be your friend, whenever there are strangers, they get so excited with new faces. Nevertheless, they are strong dogs, which can pound at you and pull you. I wish one day i could have a toy car in an enclosed area, and Roxy and pull me around. Better still sledge me to work…haha, that’s only possible if I’m in Alaska I guess

Roxy's New Bowl (6 months old)

She now can go up to the wash basin and steal things and eat! My God and I don’t know why, and what got into her (prolly too hungry/ bored) When i was washing my plate the other day, and found out that my money plant is gone! And I ask mom what happened, she say she not sure, she notice something was wrong but was not able to identify! And wow…my dog eats plant! And not any plant but Money plant Well, Roxy can also be a pest control in the house…haha, cos she catches insects which is annoying her…she just concentrates on the sound and “grasp” she got it! haha! that’s good man, she does that specially to annoying “flies!” Not that bad having a dog after all isn’t it?

Checkin' out ma' new bowl!

oh no! Cambodian dog?

ggrr..why do you have to dress me up like that?

Ah, finally! Cool breeze...

Drink more water..

Posing with my new bowl

No food kah?

No more photos please!

It is the most expensive breed I have ever known so far in Malaysia, and I thought Husky’s with blue eyes were expensive and this cream chow-chow cost above RM5K. So, worth the photos, time spent and touching it.

Princess with black tongue

She is 3 months old but she weighs like 10kg i think, her previous owner named her “KiKi” but aunty Emelyn decided to call her “Princess” even before she adopted her back home Her previous owner who owned “princess’s” father a champion breed was there to hand her over, can see from his face he will miss “kiki” very much, hugging her tightly for the “last” time.

Hugging a fury Teddy Bear

Paw up, I want to be a Real Estate Negotiator too!

When she’s tired of all the attention she get from all the negotiator there, she just lie flat on the floor to enjoy some cool air

BBQ piglet

Am i too fat?

I know! I will go do some exercise!

What I can say is that she’s really fat! Cos the owner feeds her with cheese, single craft cheese (what human eats) that makes her fur softer and smoother, like human hair conditioner, haha. She already has double-chin and few layers of spare tyres, but it’s really cute when she walks..cos very chubby. She doesn’t really like to be carried, because most ppl would not know the right way to carry her. For normal puppy, you may just carry from the 2 front legs but for chow-chow, you need another hand to support the 2 back legs, as if you’re carrying a baby Else when you carry only both the front legs with 1 hand, it’s too heavy and her 2 back legs will be kicking wobbly, can be a laughing stock though LOL.

Ya, about this New Tricks with New Treats, since I was kinda free yesterday other than taking naps and medics, i have a little spare time and energy for my little doggie “Roxy”! And it has been some time that we have not thought her any new tricks. Everyone at home is asking how to teach her rollover and playdead? I has been long procrastinated while I read about it in Penang 2 weeks back and she’s not getting any younger, the older a dog is the harder it will be for her to learn. Guess same goes to human beings. But for dogs its harder when their hormone influence. Since Roxy is still a puppy so I Need to take advantage of this time to teach her a few more tricks!

I had this policy as far as 6 months ago, to teach Roxy with every new trick that I want to teach, I’ll get her some new treats So after a few rounds to teaching her how to “PlayDead” she finally got it and a treat of “rawhide, wrap around with real chicken meat” is given to her! We got four of it, for RM6, which they calculate by per 100 grams.

Roxy learns tricks really fast! But there have to be treats available It takes her about a week to master 1 trick but daily practice is needed to master a trick. Next its gonna be rollover….which is gonna be quite natural after playdead is mastered! I wanted to teach the command “Bang!” instead of “Playdead” for the play dead trick, but seems that when i say command “Bang!” she automatically jump up instead of play dead! haha, so i opt. for the “Playdead” command instead. haha, guess the high tone quirks her up

According to mom she sneezed a few times yesterday, probably is because I spread some flu virus to her?
