Poor Scuba!

Aunty V just told my M this morning that Scuba is now in Hospital. Scuba has not been feeling well the last two days, vomiting the food he ate and no appetite. So this morning, Aunty V made an appointment for Scuba to see his favourite vet, Dr Tan.

Turned out that there is a piece of bone stuck in Scuba's intestines. Dr Tan said that they would try to push the bone into the stomach, and if that fails, Scuba will have to undergo surgery.

Aunty V thinks that silly Scuba might have swallowed the oxtail he was given as treats coz he's afraid that Chewie might snatch. Chewie is now recovering from his surgery at Aunty V's house, coz Aunty S is there during the day to take care of him. Silly Scuba most likely did not remember that Chewie is behind the play pen and can't snatch his oxtail.

So the latest news now is that Scuba just underwent surgery. Aunty V's house is gonna be like a Hospital soon with so many injured/ sick dogs. I hope no more of my friends fall sick.

Get well soon Scuba!

Thank you Herbie for posting about Scuba. Will update you when I hear from Dr Tan (as Scuba cannot get to a computer)

Hello Hunter. Definitely Scuba will see you at the dog run when he gets better. How does he recognise you?

I will say hello to Scuba and give him a lick.. ha ha. its easy to recognise me cos i will point at birds. My real name is Ice. if u see a fat girl chasing after a HANDSOME dog... ahem.. its me and my slave.

get well soon scuba and i teach u how to point.. and stalk birds.

Thank you. I guess Scuba is also easy to spot. Not many mini bull terriers around.

Scuba prefers toad (against my wishes) while Ginger (his feline sibling) is good at stalking birds....but pointing hmmm will definitely learn from you.

I will pass your well wishes to Scuba

Ice stalks cats as well. Hope Scuba dun learn this from him. It is his breed instinct. most owners of this breed said that they even stalk their own pet cats. Ice is dumb. sent him to the vet two weeks ago for a serious cat scratch... he stil stalks cats now.. haiz.

Ice promise to catch a frog for Scuba but he has to recover super duper fast... :)

What breed is Ice?

Scuba respects his feline siblings. He was taught at a very young age to respect them (by them). Bet Ice still has the scar from the scratch.

Catching frog - oh no. Not a good idea. But I will tell him if it helps him to recover super duper fast.

p/s Guess Herbie don't mind this conversation

Thank you

LOL... now u know me.. Sharon... ha ha ha. Uncle Melvin gave me Ice... I had him for almost a year liao. LOL... this is Tongzhi aka Karen aka Russell's owner!!!

Ice is much happier with me. kekekeee... At least he gets the individual attention that he needs and one hr WALKS everyday... and he is much more confident now! too confident in fact. that he got attacked by cat.

Oh no, hope he gets well real soon. Maybe next time cannot give him any more oxtails la, but still many other different treats to choose from, so get well Scuba if you want any!

ah.. Tongzhi! Glad to hear that Ice is very happy with you. Stay with you also good lah, less dogs to fight for attention with. :) I can't remember if it was ice or fudge that used to like to chase birds or bats as well.

Mark & Cream, Scuba has a lot of treats in his house, I love going there! And because of his surgery, Aunty V gave away all his bones to me and my friends, since Scuba won't be eating it for some time.

Scuba, don't worry about your bones, I'll ask my M to buy you a huge mutton knuckle bone (you won't choke on this) once you've recovered!

Of cos he has good life here... cos no one fight with him for attention. Russell only look for me when he is hungry or wants some entertainment or walks.. He can have my unlimited attention. Ice loves to point birds... Fudge is liver white.. Ice is orange white.

Will u be going to dog run today? i will be able to reach dog run latest by 7pm today.. nid some tips to identify the domineering dogs... a bit worried that Ice may be bullied.

Anonymous said...

yup, will be there. I think I will reach abt 7:30. Anyway, the more 'zhi dong' owners of the more domineering dogs (aka Tommy and Rafv) usually keep them in a seperate play area. So Ice will be fine if he sticks to the main area, but I dunno abt other dog owners.
