Taku again !

At 3 months, Taku now weighs about 9 kg. One and half months ago, he was only 2.5 kg. Well he takes Eukanuba, and three varieties of dog snacks with good amount of vitamins and sometimes apples.
Taku
He has taken three jabs of vaccination. Healthy dog. The doctor advised to let him have the fourth and the final one. After that he will start to take pills monthly to prevent heart worms.

He likes to chew. Rugs, newspaper, clothes and wires !! He chewed some of my photo albums. I became so mad and gave the poor puppy a hard beating. When I am at work, he will be in the cage for the day.

Do I have time to play with the puppy ? Only night time after work. And during the weekends. Now I hardly have time to blog. Work most of the time. Dog the rest of my time. He is good with the balls. Golden retriever eh !

Taku doesn't sleep too much unless something is wrong with him. Sick probably. Hyperactive !

This dog is costly. Keeping him is also costly.

How much do you have to spend for the dog every month?

But I pity the dog- get beaten frequently by his master who doesnt understand the nature of a dog !

My poodle took 3 vaccination jabs, also takes mthly de-worming tabs and feeds on Eukanuba. I also only play with it after work and on weekends. And I do agree that it's indeed expensive especially grooming every 2 mths, treats and doctor's visits.

Yeah, they love to retrieve balls! And they love to swim! And they are easy to train. Taku is still a puppy, give him time. But be careful, my aunt's golden retriever was stolen.

js : sure. i will write about taku again especially when i bring him outdoor.

sweepy : hi hi. it has been awhile since i last chat with you in msn. are you still in kyoto ? did you check my previous postings on travel in japan ? you can write to eddie (another blogger). he lives in kyoto. my good friend. he may be able to help you.

eddie : please help sweepy. she is really nice cute girl. i am now spending about rm200 every month for the dog.

acrix : the name of the vaccination ? dunno leh. just sent him to the doctor.

primrose : next time we can have dog's outing. you bring your poodle. i bring my golden.

zbjernak : you are definitely right !!! the owner is exhausted !

flaminarse : taku means ? actually his name is takumi ryu. ryu means dragon also my family name. so he is part of the family. takumi means skillful. taku is his nick name. i call him ah tuck and he goes blank.

ai ling : i am planning to put the chip in later. so far my dog stays indoor most of the time. ah tuck is quite chicken. no doubt he likes to play with water. toilet water !!! i doubt he dares to jump into deep waters.
