Most pet owner took their pets for walk that’s why dog parks are popular in most cities but in rural areas dogs are free to wander and go anywhere which is somehow risky because they love to stay and play on the streets where fast moving vehicles are.

That’s why my family decided to put Jihoo on leash for his own safety, it is better to be careful than sorry.  It was right that dogs that are not on leash can inter-act with other dogs and has more energy as they can run and play freely but  of course we have to think of their own safety too with that dog parks are became beneficial because that’s where they can socialized with other dogs, run and play. A healthy lifestyle for a dog will reduce risk of obesity and other diseases.

Many families has their own  pet regardless of what type of pet it is. Most common pet among families are dogs and cats which are treated as part of the family. There are pet owners who loves to pamper their pets with gifts or pet supplies.

There’s a lot of options on where to buy pet supplies and the most  common way is buying from local pet store which is can be easily found around the place you live at. Pet stores are popular because you can physically examine the quality of each item before purchasing them but if you don’t have time to look and shop around there are online pet stores that offer more  convenient way of shopping in the comfort of your own home. You can purchase  pet supplies all in a matter of minutes.

There’s a belief that when a person can have a pet and be able to love it unconditionally, that person is kindhearted and can easily love other people as well.

These people will do everything just to give their pet the comfort that they need no matter how much it will cost them. They are actually treating them like their children. Right after birth, they also go their vets to have their regular vaccine shots in order to ensure a healthy life.

Some pet lovers would even invest for their pet’s house. Just like any other rooms inside the house, a pet’s corner is complete with their lavatory, pet bed, and any other stuff that they need. They believe that everything can turn out to be a good karma. Anything you do good even to animals can result to anything good to yourself.

More than the material things that you can give to your pet, your time matters to them. They are also like human beings who need attention and proper care. You get pissed off when your dad is always at work and can’t even attend your firs school recital it’s because his presence matters most. Same goes with your pet; they might not have any important events in their lives but your presence matters to them. Every time you arrive home, do not forget to give them a pat on the head or feed them. Even little things like these can already have a great impact to them. You will be surprised that even during time that you least expect their help, they are willing to give it wholeheartedly.

Well I think curiosity is not just on human or cats, dog has their own curiosity too! Below Jihoo is very curious on what my mother is doing, my mother is playing games in front of my old laptop and our pet kept jumping and looking behind her back.  Probably he is waiting for his turn to play. Hehe

When I also sat in front of my laptop and play some games Jihoo did the same watching what I am doing. He is a very sweet dog and I already missed hugging him, right now I am just contented seeing our pet in pictures.

I don’t know what is in the box when it came to cats. If there are boxes at home expect it that there’s one or two cats hiding and sleeping inside. Probably they feel comfort while they are in the box, my sister brought one box in our home so she could use to start a fire on our charcoal stove. So while it is not yet torn to pieces she just left it in our living room and as expected our cats went there and lie down.

Do you  know why cat loves boxes or fascinated with a box?

Keeping a dog as pet is a big responsibility, they are not just like your playmate or stress reliever. You need to take care of them by giving them proper food and nutritious diet. Regular exercise may also help to keep your dog healthy and in good shape, long walk is a very good exercise for them or playing with a ball.

With the technology today fitness machine are not only made for human, there are also dog treadmill which is made for dogs fitness, this is one of the best alternative when you don’t have time to take your dog for a walk at night or in the morning. A dog treadmill is a good substitute but it doesn’t fully replace long walk or run for your dog though this machine will help to keep your dog in good shape.

Dog treadmill also come on different sizes depending upon the weight of your dog, it is also available on manual, electrical, light weight and heavy weight.

I just find this picture below cute, Kimchi is sleeping with the eggs below our  abuhan (stove). We are looking for her but we can’t find her around and when I went to the kitchen I saw her peacefully sleeping so I didn’t waste any time and I look for my camera to take a picture. Dunno what she thinks, my sister and mother says maybe Kimchi is thinking she is a chicken but I think she just find solace and warm in the chicken’s nest.

So every time she is missing around we already know where to find her.  Probably we are not going to be surprised anymore if the eggs hatched early. Hehe

When I  arrived in our neighborhood what caught me is the tiny little dogs that are wandering to seek for food. They are very tiny that could be mistaken for chihuahua but they are not because they are local dog. I think they are too small because they didn’t get enough milk from the mother dog or they are not able to drink the first milk from their mother which is called colostrum.

Colostrum is the important first milk in puppies which provides nutrition, fluids, and immunity from disease causing organisms. Dogs and cats, like many other mammals, pass the majority of the maternal antibodies to the newborn via colostrum. Defined as the first 24 hours of milk flow following birth, colostrum is a highly concentrated mixture of large protein antibody molecules, water, vitamins, electrolytes, and nutrients

My Uncle who owns the dog call them Brahman’s dunno where did he get the name it is from the cow’s breed or from watching cartoons during day time.

My family has four cats, two of them are grown up male and the other two are kittens from different mother cat. They got the other one from my aunt and the other one from a friend. When I arrived in our home one of the first thing I have asked was the name of the cats it turns out the two kittens has no name yet so I named them Soju and Kimchi.

Soju was for the male kitten and Kimchi for the female one which is the smaller. The picture below was taken on one fine day while we are in our backyard looking for the laborers removing the coconut roots. The kitten went out as well as they are like dogs they want to go where ever we want to go.

Probably Soju (the kitten sitting in the piece of wood) is in the mood for play so he keeps playing with Kimchi’s tail the thing though Kimchi is not feeling well as you can see she looks very pale and thin. She is sick for few days already, had a fever too on the last few days. So she is quite uncool when Soju plays with her tail.

I just arrived the other day from almost one month vacation in the Philippines if there’s one thing I enjoyed upon my stay, that is able to hold and touch a pet again. It was been a long time since I am able to do it, when I first arrived our family dog was not  happy to see me. He keeps barking and growling at me, probably because I am a new face to him but within few days he is already used seeing me but still we are not too closed that I am still scared to touch him alone.

One day my sister test our other bike and I asked her if she can took Jihoo for a ride as they told me already that Jihoo loves riding in that yellow bike with father. So she did, on their next trip my sister asked me if I want to go with them (Jihoo) I willingly say yes but it turns out Jihoo doesn’t like my presence or someone riding on his bike because the  moment I sit in the bike he growls and went down from the bike and when I went down he went up to the bike again, such a baby!
