Dog's world: caption this picture

Nell meeting the creator

You came into my life and you were everywhere in this house. You asked for nothing but tenderness and filed my heart and soul with something that is hard to explain for it is an emotion that is not related to any kind of human connection.

You had a wisdom that I could never understand but I felt it when I looked at you and you stared me back.

I remember the first time I saw you. You were on a table being you, and just by being you little by little you gained my devotion.

My little angel. You were my guardian angel sometimes, you know that.
I remember you running towards me, straight to my arms.

You got sick and, in 2008, the first surgery, the second in 2011 showed that you were not well.
But you were brave and against all odds you were here till last night.
You started feeling sick two weeks ago. You could not breath. It was getting difficult you could not see and listen anymore.

Yesterday I prayed for God that if you were in pain that he should have mercy.
Today morning I searched for you and you were not in any place you used to be. You were under the armchair with your head showing.

I took you and God, I believe Him occasionally, answered my prayers.

Go my angel, go, go, my angel and find peace to have fun and play.

It is aching because I'm missing you and your body is still here. But is is just a body.
Little angel,I'll never forget you but time will make this pain go away and I'll remember those tiny little things that we shared.

I cannot stop writing... as if I stopped I would have to face your absence,
I'm listening to these songs that express what I'm feeling in a way.
I have to let you go my angel.
Go, go sweet angel.

Aww! Puppy's activities are so funny!

But... NO! is the word s/he has to be told if you want your dog to behave and prevent the destruction of your furniture, carpet, shoes, and so on.

It's heartbreaking but it has to be done for his own sake and for a peaceful environment.

My puppy is finally giving up biting my hands, feet and some objects. He seems to know what are his toys and when he gets something he runs to a hidden place or the area he plays with his toys. I laugh inside but... "NO! Drop it"..  he drops.

I had a three months dog once but I didn't know how to teach him so the doctor who gave him to me asked me if I wanted to have the dog that was at his clinic. I accepted. It was like winning a prize for she is a real lady and very healthy for a dog that is 15 years-old and was diagnosed with cancer in 2008. I don't have any funny stories to tell because she does everything right.

Picture: I came across with this site and I don't know what came into me that I got Waldek Dabrowski's picture, runned to this editor and... it appeared here. I hope he doesn't come after me: "NO!"

Puppy and older dog sleeping

Two generations meeting in their dreams. Am I lucky or what?

Help! Puppy waking human mom in the middle of the night

I'm sleepy and tired. He did it again, of course, and woke me up "crying" in the middle of the night.

I'm exhausted because I have to take care of my older dog so that she feels secure that she'll not lose her kingdom.

Hard job!

I'm searching for techniques and just found this idea at a forum. I guess I'm gonna do it.

You guessed right if you thought that I didn't blog for the last three days because of my dogs. I'm also having my house repaired. I have three posts labeled as "draft" because I didn't have time to finish them.

Now I have to sleep... ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Too busy saying "NO"" to puppy

My puppy wants to bite everything and I'm teaching him not to bite.

Most things he does I have to say "NO!".

It's hard to be a dog in a human environment he has already complained.

The picture is not him. It is Marcie Mae but he looks like her. He has more black hair and I'm having problems taking a good picture. You know, I have to take care of him and say "NO!" the most effective and not traumatic way.

It is so hard to be a human mom! But I'm enjoying every minute...

Shepherd puppy: can you resist me?

I simply couldn't help sharing. "Take me, take me, take me home! Please"

How to get rid of the fleas and why sometimes they never leave

For the first time I had an infestation of fleas in my apartment that cost me two months of research and experiences.

The others, including two ticks infestation, were very easy to handle and I only did the procedures that all of those who have dogs know or should know.

What was different this time?
The street I live must have one flea in every centimeter. It is summer and this is a factor that creates the conditions for proliferation of fleas and ticks but what is not understandable is why the same measures that were always effective were not helping?
What I end up doing: stop walking the dog. I already avoided crossing the street because of the ticks. They are at one part of the garden and one dog died because of tick disease.

I talked to people from other districts and some are having the same problem: although they obsessionally  cleaned their houses using the vacuum cleaner, spread some of the sprays - be careful when doing it because the dog cannot  smell it -, used anti-flea talcum powder on the dog and on fabrics s/he sleeps and have washed and cleaned everything that could be a nest to fleas they didn't go away...

I asked if they were walking their dogs and yes was the answer. I decided to stop walking my dog.

It worked. Finally she is flea-free and her skin is coming back to normal. I could not stand see her scratching that way and I believe if things kept that way it would start to affect her emotionally as some vets claim it does and I felt that she was already feeling tired.

Facts to help preventing and fighting the fleas and ticks:

-  fleas don't like light;
-  when infected your dog will have dark specks like pepper on the skin surface. When you brush they fall. These are the fesses of the flea; yuk!
-  use white sheets and a white or light fabric when you brush your dog to detect the first signs and to see what falls from the body of your dog when you brush her/him;
-  the eggs will be on the dog and at the environment;
-  eggs do hide in dark and using the vacuum cleaner on the floor, whether carpet of not, during the infestation is the weapon against the eggs of the flea, or ticks;
-  flea-zone on your dog: lower back around the tail and genitals, always check if this zone is healthy and clean;
-  ticks climb walls and furniture and they make nests that depending on your house can be easily found, I was lucky to find one in the couch and another one.. in one of my shorts, can you believe that?

The lesson is: the primary source of flea of tick must be discovered and avoided in my case the street but to other people there must be others. I live in an apartment so I don' know what are the problems of a house with a backyard.
I truly believe that this is one of the reasons why some people claim that even thou they did everything they could their houses are still infected.

I just fount this site and there is very good information.

I hope it helps and if you have any good tip those who have pets will love. Thank you
