UPDATED: I saw her picture now! This was her picture. :) I miss Moja!
Anyway, what I remembered of her were her kindness, lovely and very loyal dog to our family. She reached around 12 to 13 years old (which is 84 to 91 years old for human years). It was really a saddened story as she was lost around that time. We looked at her the whole area but we cannot see her. It feels like she didn't want us to be sad and lonely when she was gone. Until now, I am so sad that we didn't give her a proper resting place and properly say goodbye.
Before Mojacko came to our lives, there was "Sugar". I remembered her that was around January 1990 ( I was 5 years old that), Sugar is on her whelping stage when there was an accident in our area. There was a fire beside our wooden apartment. At my young age, I don't see life and situation as wide as now. I was grabbed by my mother to get out the apartment and be safe. Fortunately, no one hurt to my little brother, my sister, my mother and me. But, our Sugar, died together with her newly born puppies. We tried to rescue her but as you know when a dog delivered her puppies, she was so protected and she don't want anyone to be close to her and to her babies. So, she ended up burnt together with our house. Oh sad.
Many years passed, we decided not to get any pets around the house as everyone is busy working and studying.
Last 2012, I decided to have my own pets. Actually I don't treat them (yes they are two puppies!) as pets.. they are my family. First, we bought Vomit as our first dog. I know you are wondering why Vomit. It was like Eeeww name. :) Well, We named our puppies based on their initial behaviors or characteristics. We picked up Vomit to the breeder in Quezon City (I guess that was in Novaliches), and we are residing from Manila. To think that from Manila to Quezon City is too far for me. First, we rode on tricycle to get out the subdivision where the breeder resides. It was a bumpy ride so after we ride off the tryke, Vomit vomited. Now you know. But that was not yet the end. So, we took FX to go to North Edsa so we can go by train or bus. After FX, Vomit vomited again. Since, no pets allowed on train, we decided to take bus going to Guadalupe. But Vomit started to vomit again like twice, his puppy bag was full of you know. So we decided to carry him until we reach Greenhills. We rest for the mean time at McDonalds and have his drink. He is so shy puppy and of course, cute! In this case, I can't no longer let him vomit again, so I called my father to pick us up in Greenhills using my car to go home.
This was his first day as a member of the family:
Vomit @ 2 monhs old
He was so quiet and shy-type, maybe he is familiarizing our new smells. :)
After a month or two, we decided to get a girl, so we will have a pair of maltese.
We also bought my second pup via breeder too. The breeder looked decent and professional. There are two pups that we will be choosing and we decided to get the smaller one.
What is her name? Maldi. :)
Maldi short name for Maldi. Since we have Vomit, Maldi is not a shy-type one, she is very jolly and didn't vomit at all. She enjoyed the travel from Paranaque to Manila.
By the way, her first pictures as our second member of my family pet. :)
Maldi @ 2 months old
Having a pet requires time. Yes. Time that can raise 2 kids at the same time. I am serious. I am treating them as my kids so I always have this mindset that always give the best for your kids.
We had an ups and downs with my pups. They almost visit Vet Clinic every month when they were in their first year. So we conclude that their first year is really an eye to eye observation in all aspects of their growing up. From foods, hygiene, vaccinations, deworming, exercise, health, etc. Once they completed the first cycle of vaccinations, and continuous deworming, and of course, tender loving care, they are grown cuties. :)
Their first time to join a public dog fashion show. :) Sponsored by Pet Express and Good Boy
Having their photoshoot before I change my bed sheet. :)
Being a competitive owners, we also joined dog events and exhibits. We also loved joining to contest such as Dog Quiz Bee. And what are the prizes?
Alpo and Good Boy Dog food supplies, Dog accessories and MORE!
Being with them is like heaven for me. Everytime I go home, they smelled me even i am in front of the main door. They started to bark and aggressively waiting for me to welcome them.
As of today, Vomit and Maldi are 2 years old now (Human Years) and last December 2013, Maldi delivered 4 cutie male maltese. I will feature them on my next blog. For a picture teaser, here they are:
