Puppy & Pawikan

Early this morning when we were letting the dogs out of their kennels and while checking on the rest of the SALAMAT residents, one of the eight puppies of the mama dog seen on my post for the Spay/Neuter event at SARC, is not feeling well, at least she was not running around like the rest of the puppies.  I scooped her up and put her in the cage with the 'Pawikan' so she does not get run over by the other 'full of excitement' puppies.

Later, when I checked on her again, the images below are so touching.  Of course, I had to run for the camera.

Ruby

Ruby is one of our oldest dogs at SALAMAT Animal Rescue Center (SARC).  Today, in the afternoon, she did not eat her food.  I noticed her napping while everybody was eating.  I immediately picked her up from her kennel and just held her like a baby.  I noticed that her breath stunk so bad.  Immediately, I was thinking she must have a toothache or several teeth aching.  I sprayed dental spray on her teeth & gums and 1/2 hour later, she was eating her food.  She must have a bad tooth or teeth decay and it is giving her a lot of pain.  She ate again about a handful of rice around 6:30 p.m.  Tonight, she is in the SALAMAT office and she will be staying & sleeping in the office so I can keep an eye on her.  She is sound asleep right now.  Our little old lady needs pampering for sure. 

If you don't want your dog to have bad breath, do what I do: Pour a little Lavoris in the toilet.

Mig & Gil

Mig & Gil eagerly awaiting their dindin

Mig & Gil were named after Miguel, our youngest volunteer at SARC.  Mig & Gil are both males, about 3 months old who were dropped at SARC on May 20, 2012 when they were only a month old puppies.  I keep getting in trouble with my husband.  He keeps telling me not to take in anymore animals, but how can I turn my back on these two? Take a look at them.
