Problem Solved

Toto again LOST CONTROL at the Patio, both of us felt so lost we have to get out of the house to 'breath' and lucky us, we manage to TALK it through. Althou we still cannot find the exact reason for his 'change' but then we figure that we had to treat him like a baby puppy again.

We think TOto might have gotten confused.

1) When he place 2 front paws on the Nugi to pee for a few days, we sort of scolded him. This might have confused him, that we do not want him to pee there.

2) And when we goes out, we always encourage TOto to pee first before boarding our car and drive off to the 'Dog park. So he might think that once he PEEd DOWNSTAIRS on the grass he gets the chance to GO OUT. So he try to 'TOLERATE' his pee as long as possible until we bring him downstairs! And he never get scolding from Pee-ing or Pooping downstairs!

But this short 'fiasco' tell us that, from now on TOto can hold his pee for at maximum 8hours! And so, now when we go out we wouldn't have to rush back, hahahaha ...

Anyway we use the most primitive method of putting his nugi back into a PLAY PEN again like when he is a baby puppy! And once we reached home from breathing some fresh air outside, and bring Toto to the pen area, he refused initially but we also refused to let him come out. And he got the idea and PEE onto NUGI!!

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh our FIRST success!!
After that we calculate the timing, and we crated him at night. He requested to come out like 3am, just nice. I brought him to the Pen area, he refused to submit, but eventually pee when I goes off to the toilet myself. 2nd Success ...

After that when we woke in the morning, we saw a 3rd puddle, that means he pee in Nugi in the middle of the night too! Yeahhhhhhh ...

And he also Poop onto Nugi without cue!
He has this habit of jumping onto our bed after he poop!! That is how we realised he poop, and if we are still sleeping he would sleep with us!

OUR TOTO is back!!

Toto got the B-infection ...

The condition Toto gotten is balanoposthitis!

From Wiki.
In dogs, balanoposthitis is caused by a disruption in the integumentary system, such as a wound or intrusion of a foreign body. A dog with this condition behaves normally, with the exception of excessive licking at the prepuce, and a yellow green, pus-like discharge is usually present.

After a antibiotic shot and a antibacterial/antibiotic ointment, 'EnteDerm';  he is better already but then he still do not want to pee on nugi ...

TOto @ 8 mths

Last week was terrible, TOto is at his Terrible 8! His adolescent is FULL BLOWN! Last weekend he always urinate out of his nugi and YQ is cleaning up his PEE for a few days! Toto purposely only placed 2 paws on his nugi and all his pee are outside! Dang ...

Then on Wednesday we decide to let him try day care and he came back Soooooooooooooooooo DIRTY and we discover that his penis tip cannot go back into his sheath and we are frantic and wondering what happen. We frantically search the internet and was 'instructed' to ICE it to reduce the swollen penis sheath and head. In the end we still have to use KY to help the tip slide back into the sheath ...

He was WHITE and pretty when we board him but when we collect him ...

He is GREY! We have no choice but to bath him ...

And we thought that is the end of our nightmare ...

In the morning, I found one puddle of pee ...

In the afternoon, he lost control of his bladder and wet the SOFA! I was LOOKING at him lose control, I think he scared himself and jump off the sofa and goes into hiding. We thought he might be tooooooo tired from the day care because he was allowed to play from 8am-5pm, and usually TOto sleep throughout the afternoon!

And After that he has this habit of HOLDING his pee and DO NOT want to use NUGI anymore. What happen in DAYCARE!? And subsequently every morning, he will have one puddle here and there, unless we bring him out to do his business!! So we timed him, every 8hours we try to bring him out ...

Sunday night was the WORST, we saw PUS coming out of his PENIS and we have to bring him into EMERGENCY! The Vet wash out his pus and did a check, it was bacteria infection, and that Vet visit cost us USD180+, and we were given a tube of meds to apply for him. We were so traumatised by the whole event, imagine seeing PUS coming out of his penis ...

Now every morning is a 'fight' between TOto and YQ!

TOto will not be allowed to go out into the patio UNLESS he use the Nugi! And today, in the afternoon. Toto overslept, and lost control again!!! aRRRRGghhhhhh! Toto must been influence by other naughty dog in daycare to 'rebel' by holding his PEE so that we have no choice but to bring him out MORE OFTEN!

Can he survive ONE MONTH of Boarding?

Stella and Chewys freeze dried Dinner

We were 'introduced' to Stella and Chewys as treat for Toto and Toto loves loves loves it! OMG, he do ANYTHING for this; 'Bang', Roll', 'Surrender' and etc, at ONE COMMAND ONE ACTION. And later I realised this should be given as DINNER! Gosh, hahaha we have to feed it sparingly then, and I have cut the patties into 4 part!

The patties really SMELL good!!

It smells something like the Human's version of 'bak hu aka Pork floss'!

It was on a 1 for 1 discount at Pet Supplies Plus's opening so we gotten 2 for Toto; The 'Dandy Lamb' and 'Duck Duck Goose'. We will try the treat's version after we finish all the treats Toto has!

Human chair VS doggie bed!

Something like this 'doggie version' cost USD80!

And something like this which cost us USD9.00 give TOto immense pleasure. Like innocent little kids, dogs do not know how much his toy or gadget COST. They just love what you use, and what you do together with them! As long as the things you give him have your smell or you are doing it with him, he is happy ...

TOto will actually INVITE you to join him at the patio. He will scratch scratch our calf and then he will walk over to the patio. :) sweet little fellow huh ...

And after that he happily fall asleep in the patio on our chair ...

Sometimes waking up because some people is walking the dog downstairs

He loves to people/dog watch from the chair too!

Blisss ...

Cuddling comfortably in a USD9 chair

I guess YQ will still get his baobei a similar Dog bed but at a lower price! Our sofa at home only cost us USD100+!
