Going on our route today,

we were blessed with kind weather - with heavy rains BEFORE and AFTER we are done! :) Our dogs were wet through though.

First, our rottweiler mama is doing good, as usual she doesn't know how strong she is and happily jumps her full weight upon you and paws your hand for quick release of FOOD.

Her son is much better now. Just last week, he was warded urgently when we found him lying on the floor, unable to get up and vomiting.

Dr T inspected him and found a bladder so full that it must have been causing him great pain. He was unable to pee, unable to poo, unable to eat. Dr T suspected that he must been have whacked by someone with a hard object to his body, which greatly impacted and caused internal injury to his bladder. He is a very friendly and jolly fellow. Who would want to casue him hurt? A catheter had to be inserted to drain out his full bladder and relief him of the pain. He was hospitalised for a week. His vet bill is about $350+.

If you would like to help in this expense, pls email us at projectjkteam@yahoo.com.sg Thank you.


Rottie mama - suspected dumped into a mud pool few months back and rescued. Her son is suspected to have been whacked by someone. Unfortunately we have no evidence who it might be.


Next door, the black twins have decided to join Scruffy and gang. She and golden mommy are on heat again, but unfortunately we are still unable to reach these 2. And the young gal. They stay just beyond our reach.



Scruffy and young gal. Scruffy would come near and eat from my hand, but catching her for sterilisation is another matter altogether. Young gal never comes within a metre to me.


From Abbie's pack - it is interesting how similar their features and stance are. The same blood line.


Further now, the temple dogs are a delight to watch. The sand dune is their resting place. What a delight it will be if we can promise them a life of safety and peace, of no random culling. Sadly, I cannot promsie them that. Just last week, some of their pals have been caught and put down by the authorities. These below are still alive cos the temple man is a goodhearted man and helped to 'chase' them away when the authorities were surrounding them.





Warm sand in a cool weather .... comfort ....

One of the temple dogs is a so sweet gal with big round eyes. A darling.




Such sweet round eyes!


Further along, we visited Coca and Cola's sister and her family. She's a big. sturdy gal, one look and you will see the sibling similarities.




Pepsi (or Wang Wang as the farm lady calls her)

Over at Guppy and Discus' side, their mom is pregnant again. Not easy to get her, but we'll continue to try.


Pregnant mom running away


Guppy grooming Discus. Look at Discus' contented face, or is that tolerance...


Very interestingly, down the lane, there is another pair of boys - almost mirror images of Guppy & Discus. Look at their coat colours.


Doesn't he look like a mini Discus?

And this is where we found Lucas few months back, chained up to the pillar. I am just relieved that he is now safe and free at ALL.
