PAWS for Thoughts:(11th feb 2003) TREATING VOMITING AT HOME Try this is your dog has vomited only once and does not have other symptoms such as diarrhea or a bloated stomach. Consult your vet. 1. Withold all food for 12 hours. 2. Restrict access to water- only a cupful approximately every 2 hours. Never give a vomiting dog milk 3. Rest the dog and keep it warm. 4. After 12 hours, if vomiting has not recurred, give the dog a bland meal of an easily digestable protein and carb-boiled chicken etc. Feed small amounts every four hours. If the dog does not vomit again, gradually return to the normal diet over the next two days. |
Hello. 9 months has passed and I am really accustomed to our home a am now a full fledged "Northerner"...hmm my dad on the other hand thought that i had inevitably turned the home into a menagerie... :-)
Dad had insistently been trying to impart his attacking technique and keeps shouting "Attack!" I am trying to put my new set of fangs into good use....Speaking of which I have to go thru the regime of "Brushing Teeth" weekly.... Oohh I hated that....
I had also started taking roundworm pills ....it's goona be a 6 months thingy...not too bad though ...
Finally a wonderful V-day and take care .... (*Words of Wisdom- Say NO To War but When you are dealing with a recalcitrant monster - Nuke the fella!)

Again, It's been a Long ..Long While ...and I guess it's time for an update. Daddy has
been extremely busy with work and hasn't got the time to update my site...Not till
recently on my mum's 25th Birthday, we've got some new pics......
Daddy got mum a wonderful bouquet of purple tulips that smelt really good too
...couldn't stop sniffing those flowers.... Daddy got for us a Chocolate cake as well
...tasted great ....but they say I couldn't take too much of that stuff....Dunno why. I
seem to shedding some of my fur ...hmmm might be the shampoo ....Other than that my life's
pretty alright .....

Finally the TOBY-MOBIL is here ...and Toby got his first ride today to a
neighbourhood food centre for dinner.....and Toby is beginning to get used to the new
car..As for Toby's set of Baby teeth, they have practically been replaced with a new set
of Canines!.....Visitors beware :-)
Toby's latest food craze...aside from his daily Eukanuba, IAMS Buscuits, Beef Jerky, Chicken Strips, and Bonez...."Steamed Baby Carrots" Seems to get his attention more these days....at least we know that Toby has his fair share of Beta Carotene... More Images coming your way when we get some aftermarkets stuffed into the TobyMobil....Cheers!

PAWS for Thoughts:(6th July 2002) A Vitamin B complex supplement started a few days before each vaccination and continued for a few days after will help the puppy's body cope. Give the puppy one quarter to one half (Depending upon his size) of an adult human dosage, twice a day...
The veterinary clinic is not likely to be your MS's favourite place to visit . Going somewhere fun, like the park afterward may improve your MS's attitude about visiting the VET.... Your Mini Schnauzer must learn that it is subordinate to every human member of the family, even small children and babies. Dominant behaviour should never be tolerated. Did you know? (7th May) The Schnauzer is of German origin, said to
be recognizable in pictures of the 15th century. in the country. |
Toby had just began to loose his incisors (Baby teeth). We would
expect to see Toby's front teeth and last, the rear molars coming off....come to
think of it within two months Toby will lose all 42 teeth... Talking about teething
issues some points to note , Supervise the teething puppy; make sure his mouth stays on
his toy and hasn't migrated over to the chair leg or flooring. When you can't
supervise, confine thepuppy to a small play area that he cannot damage. Gate off a portion
of hallway
or use a small kitchen or bathroom (do not close door, use a tension gate across the
doorway!).
Aside from the Parvo Virus Scare that crumbled into the otherwise routine life of Toby Ketobi, things remained pretty much the same.... To date Toby is already hitting his forth month on this planet...We were all pleasantly surprised that Toby had already been "Certified" Paper Trained and has very much accustomed to the fact that he has to do his business on the Straits Times ...We just have to make sure that we don't leave today's paper on the floor....for apparent reasons.
As for things to look forward to ..Toby is eager to take a ride in the master's new car which has yet to come..
For all the well wishers and also those who submitted their applications for TOBY's Cyber Frenz ..We wish to extend our appreciation...
TOBY Ketobi
For those who visits Toby's cyber portal , I would like to sincerely thank all of you...unfotunately my dad's High Res 3 CCD Digital camera is not in top form these days hence not much visual updates here ..plese be patient ..more will be coming up soon.....
Things are pretty much the same here just that i have learnt to dash out the front gate..which my parents dreads it when i do that ....but then again... taking into consideration the "beatings" that I might get I'd usually have to think twice about that..
My mom's Sec Sch frenz just came today..a whole bunch of em' ......that makes me kinda "luan" ...but then I just keep "Biting" whoever's hand that comes within close proximity...It's been a while that I haven't really said Hi to my 1st mom ....the Cute Ger that gave me to my current parents now..... So here goes .... Hello!
Even tho she gave me to my current parents I do know that she do care about me ...thanks!!!
Few dialects that i heard are "Ker Ai" Candy seem to keep mumbling that to me.....hummp think that means cute......
My dad is at this point is very much into wine...just
got for himself a third bottle of wine for the week..a MERLOT...those he
gets are mainly Southern France, North East Italy, Eastern Europe and New World,
especially California.Juicy, fruity flavours of blackcurrant, black cherry
and mint.Also subtle, soft and velvety. Lower in tannic
bitterness and higher in alcohol than Cabernet Sauvignon.....the Merlot is his fav!
Also ...he just got an album too..Andrea Bocelli's Cieli di
Toscana.........and i absolutely love it. His ''Sogno'' from the last album holds a very
special meaning for my dad , and I'm so glad that Andrea offers an equally strong and
majestic selection this time. Although I have never been to Tuscany, this album evokes all
the beautiful and romantic feelings that one knows of Italy. My favorites are ''E Sara'A
Settembre'' (No. 3) and ''L'Incontro'' (No. 11); the poem that Andrea wrote and Bono
recites really touches our hearts.
Well that's about this week's update ...we'll get to hear more about my dad's Car selling escapade and getting a new car...well let's keep our finger crossed and hopes he get thru this task.............without much sweat! ... Any comments ...drop a line in my Guestbook or email toby@asiamail.com
Sincerely
TOBY Kenobi aka your little cutie!

Alright ..It has been a while since I last updated this page..well I am a growing puppy you can't expect much can you? ....and look at my size (Photo insert will be posted soon) .."Science Diet" has been fattening me well.....at 5KG i think i am doing pretty "O.K.".....Hmmph ...but i am fed ONLY twice a day though...Come to think of it, I am in this new home for a month already ...and I'm starting to comprehend the 10 Golden Rules that my parents are trying to DRILL into me....
Hi Y'all welcome to Toby's Cyber portal, Here you'll find all you need to know about me...As my master just came up with this website, guess we'll have to wait a little while...till more updates come in...Do Visit My FRENZ Page as well...
I just moved into my master's Woodlands Home not too long ago...My master purchased me from a cute little ger for an undisclosed amount of money...Talking about that, I don't really approve of this "Dog for sale" thingy...but as long as there are good masters and companions around..guess that's fine...
Thank God my master has a weighing scale that says I am 2.5Kg ..at 2 months! Darn, Slim-10 is out of the shelves guess Xenical® would do ........but then again I am just dreaming! ..the closest pill I'll ever come close to is the "dreadful" De-Worming pill.......My Master's fren, Wei Cai warned that i might be prone to skin problems ...guess I'll better listen to him as he is currently an undergrad B.V.MS.in Scotland...Also taking this opportunity to say hi to him!
At this point the first few "Strangers" I have met are AiLing and Jay... Quite amusingly AiLing stepped at my Pee Pee and go running for a washroom...Jay on the other hand came in late and when AiLing asked me to be careful of Jay whom might Squash me like a cockroach ......It really scared me......Hmm Wonder if the Bomb shelter is strong enough to protect me... I'm still growing... and at the rate I am going .....by the end of the year they say I'd be close to full size ......and I am referring to my physique mind you!....Read about my "type" in the Mini Schnauzer page it makes me feel a little GLAM....also in my Facts Page you find how my Masters finally decided to call me TOBY.....on the second day....Which kinda confused me as they called me NITRO (?) on the first day....Geez who would call their canine companion NITRO?...Sounds like a WWF Superstar, some might say...With this web portal..I would hope to meet other canines, make friends and share tips on how to shear sofas...Just kidding ...Do drop me a few lines and share your cute photos where i intend to set up a page titled "TOBY'S FRENZ"...with all your contributions!
