Cookie No More A Fat JRT

 Cookie playing with her new crocodile squeeky toy..


Relaxing under the ceiling fan...

 Recently I refuse to eat my fruits breakfast.. only licking up the yogurt. I pick out and throw aside the apple, carrot and banana.. Could it be the yeast infection in my ears that is bothering me? It is not my teeth, as I just went for teeth scaling... and I still love my dehydrated spare ribs.. Mummy is trying to solve the mystery... I am still eating well my dinner and oatmeals..

 In March 2012, Cookie was so fat... no waist line.. So Mummy decided to walk her twice a day..

Now in June 2012, Cookie is no more a fat JRT.. Her waist line is back...

Teeth Scaling and Molar Extraction

I am sleepy after general anaesthesia for teeth scaling.... the bandage is to stop the bleeding.
Lucky this time only one left last molar extraction.. mild periodontal disease. Vet's bill is $176.55 (Mummy thinks it is quite reasonable). This time no need for antibiotics..
After my teeth scaling.. Right side..
After my teeth scaling.. left side
Before teeth scaling.. due to daily brushing, my teeth are not too bad.. no gums bleeding.. and no bad breath.

Full Health Check up at the vet with Huge Bill

Cookie has increased in weight now at 5.6kg. Where is her waist? No more supper of hot oatmeal for her from now on.. Today at the vet full blood test, biochemistry and urine tests, Cookie's health result has come out even better than mine.. Cookie is 13 years old.
Huge vet's bill almost $400 at The Animal Doctors. Mummy always insists on Dr Cathy Chan even if making appointment with her requires longer waiting time. My urine contains white and red blood cells. I have urinary tract infection. I am now on antibiotics for two weeks. We have to submit my urine sample again in two weeks' time. I will be going for teeth scaling again.
At the vet.....
Cookie's general health is good... her teeth are also good, no tar tar and no gum disease.. better than mine. Mummy has done a good job brushing her teeth everyday. Cookie has better genes than me.. Am I from puppymills?
My teeth have discoloration which won't go away even with scaling by the vet. Overall my blood and biochemistry tests showed normal results, meaning my organs are functioning well. I am 9 years old. My heart is good too.. and Dr Cathy Chan said I have shinny and healthy coat. I have a few yeast cells in my ears.. which Mummy will continue to use apple cider vinegar to clean my ears. Yeast infection in my ears are long term condition.. It is under control.

Year Ending in 2011

Chilli, the mata puteh, has passed on this year...

December is raining season... I am hibernating at home most of the time.. Major changes this year are moving to new home, Mummy working from home, I stopped eating my poo, we no longer live with Buttercup, have a new housemate, I have gained some weight, less active, sleeping a lot more.. getting older..retired from search & rescue, better diet and developed fuller fur...


I have developed fuller fur.. chest bald spot is smaller in size..

Fried salmon for dinner during festive season..

Cookie is now 12+ years old.... she is less active.. walks slower, less muscle, sleeps a lot, her urine leakage is under control, drinks more water as requested by Mummy, hasn't bitten anyone for more than a year, mellowed, less barky, more obedient, well behaved, generally a better dog...

My foot healed after 1 week

My foot has healed after one week.. although it is still reddish.. The reason why I hurt my foot is because it is balding.. the fur is just not growing there..

Loving...

Mummy has been cooking green bean soup with slice ginger for me and Cookie.. to boost our immune system..

Injured foot pad

I don't remember how I get this injured paw pad.... Mummy cleans it up with alcohol and put some anti-septic cream on it.

The new dog run sign board.

Bishan Park is almost completed.. It will be fully opened end of 2011.


After meeting some stray dogs in Yishun Park, Mummy decided we are going back to Bishan Park from now on. Bishan Park is still the best for dog walking. It is big enough for a two-hour walk.. wide path-way.. good for dog-watching.. ample parking space... only 10 km away from our home.

Admiralty Park and Republic Polytechnic


There is a SAKURA restaurant at the West Entrance of the Admiralty Park.



Admiralty Park is very secluded.. we hardly see anyone.. We walked from North Entrance to Republic Polytechnic.. The path is gravel.. I think we prefer Bishan Park.

Happy Birthday Cookie is Twelve



Mummy stir fry beef, adding snow peas and white radish with wolfberry for Cookie's birthday dinner. Today Cookie is twelve years old. Mummy adopted Cookie on 31 Aug 2001 from SPCA when Cookie was two years old then.


I like to sleep on the sofa pillow... while cookie likes to be under the coffee table dog crate.
