  • Tara’s progress

    I visited Tara at my parents’ home today.  She was very happy to see me at the gate and wagged her tail excitedly. Mum says she is starting to be “naughty” and bites her teeth tightly when mum tries to feed her medicine.  I brought chicken for Tara today, enough supply to last for a…

  • Chicken soup for the ones at PAWS

    This morning, off I went on my rounds again, to feed the dogs boarding at PAWS.  But before that, I had to drop in at work.  School is starting soon, on 4th January, and I need to get my things ready.  But wait…here’s the chicken soup I had cooked for the dogs.  I added in…

  • Sean is now boarding in a bathroom

    Instead of being all alone upstairs, Sean was moved down to a bathroom when I visited him this evening.  I had cooked chicken for Sean and Jackie.  Both loved the chicken to bits! Jackie (photo taken this morning) Sean still has diarrhoea, though.  I hope he will get well soon, with medication and care. Sean and…

  • Of humans, dogs and miracles

    Just this morning I was writing about needing wisdom to keep me going when suddenly a bomb was dropped on me.  The fosterer who had promised to take in Sean (the dog with distemper) told me he did not want to do it anymore.  That’s it.  No apologies, no offers to help me look for…

  • Urgently required – fosterer for Sean

    Sean is one of the two dogs with distemper (from the Klang rescue).  The other is Tara and my parents have adopted her, and is nursing her now.  Sean is presently boarding at a clinic, but the clinic has told me they would like Sean to be discharged after three days’ treatment (today is the third…

  • Wisdom is needed to keep us going

    This Klang rescue has really taken a toll on me.  Not only did I come down with flu after the three-day rescue, but the emotional upheaveals that came after discovering some were sick (two with distemper) was something unexpected.  I never knew we would have to bring back any sick dog.     Many other unexpected issues…

  • Jackie is improving too

    I went over to Dr Khor’s clinic to settle the bill for the spaying and also to look in on Jackie (the one with the eye wound – we brought her back a day earlier).  Jackie is getting better already.  We will put her up for adoption later.  Left my camera in the car, so no…

  • My mum adopts Tara!!

    My mum has decided to adopt Tara!  According to mum, a few days ago, she had a vision in her mind that a dog would come into her life, and it looked like an alsatian.  Yesterday morning I told her about Tara and asked if she would be interested to foster her for the duration…

  • The foursome at PAWS

    Yesterday, we brought back 7 dogs from Bentong, suspected to be unwell.  Four were boarded at PAWS, thanks to Edward’s kind offer.  We went to visit today, to feed them some cooked chicken, and to give them their medicine.  This is the little one I was most worried about.  Yesterday, when they arrived in the…

  • Vaccination for the males in Bentong (Klang rescue)

    Ainey and I made the trip up to Bentong again today.  The SPCA team was coming up to vaccinate the males and give them anti-tick treatment.  The first thing we did when we arrived was to give the Vetri DMG (immune booster) to the dogs that did not look too good.  This is one of…

  • A new day in Bentong again

    Good morning, everyone.  Today will be another day of save and rescue up in Bentong.  The SPCA team is going up with us today.  I hope their vets can help us identify the sick ones and I have been working non-stop last night, as well as right now, sourcing for space here so that we…

  • Urgent help required

    Urgently needed – a fosterer for a small-sized female dog (alsatian mix) with distemper.  Ideally, the fosterer must not have any other dog (but fully-vaccinated dogs are protected from distemper).  Medication will be provided.  We just need your tender loving care to feed the medicine and look after the dog.  If you can help, please text…

  • Nine females spayed, urgent help needed

    All of us started our day very early this morning.  By 7.20am, PingSu, Ainey, Pravinn and I were already waiting at the clinic for our vet, Dr Khor.  Here’s the grooming table Dr Khor had borrowed for today’s spaying. That’s the paraphernalia needed for today – so many things!  Dr Khor and his three very capable…

  • The faces of hope, and forlorn

    This morning, we will be making a trip up to Bentong.  I woke up at 3.30am this morning, and couldn’t go back to sleep.  While I know worrying is a waste of time, at the back of my mind, I have been worrying about some of the dogs we brought to Bentong on 15th Dec. …
