Toto THE TERROR!

His Onery side is getting very OBVIOUS!
  • When I ask him to his Nugi to go 'Pee Pee', he can understand and will Pee if he has any.
  • YQ has try walking him from the Crate in the room to his pen, he go direct to the Nugi to Pee.
  • He has accepted Food as treats and begin liking to play with his toys!
  • He is learning and willing to do some simple command with treats; Sit, Stand, Down and ROll!
  • He is a NEAT freak and kept his own area very neat and nice.
  • He will find all his toy and keep it in his own den
  • He like YQ to tidy up his den and fold his blanket for him to sleep in!
  • And he loves the FAN, as long as the fan is on he sleep like a pig.
  • And everytime before he sleep, he will want either one of us to 'sayang' him abit and then he sleep!
  • He is most accurate when he sleeps at night, he will bark for attention when needed to pee. BUT he still marks around, lost him twice today!
  • You see how all his toys is kept near him, and near his favourite blanket with his mommy scents!
    It seems his marking problem cannot be 'solve' so we have to get THE CARPET cleaner!
    Hopefully this help with our situation!!

    First Vet Visit!

    Everything went very smoothly and the Vet was very impressed with Connie's medical record for Toto! She says some breeder, only have some handwritten notes. Ours are very comprehensive!! Everything went well, no struggles or snapping.
    And Toto was a STAR, everyone loves him!
    His ear is NOT injured la, when he came back home his ear FLOP and YQ so kancheong (nervous)!! So we use tape to help it 'STAND'! Erected ear is a Terrier trademark!! When we fetch TOTO and see that his ear and tail already stand YQ so excited lo, but when we reached home, one of the ear flop he so KANCHEONG (nervous) leh! And he quickly searched onlines for remedy! So there you goes, a TAPED westie!
    He is 4.8lbs and very healthy and ALL BOY!
    A fecal examination was done and he is WORM FREE.
    (Vet's word : He should be with all the meds!)
    See how deeply he is sleeping with his own PERSONAL Fan!
    He is sleeping so deeply, he allow hubby to FILE his nail with a electronic device!
    What a Pig!

    Today ..
    • He miss once shit and once pee.
    • He wasn't negative about being crated in the POP up crate in the car.
    • We can keep him in the crate without closing the door of the crate.
    • He is still very demanding about being crate. And usually would only do it willingly if we cuddle and pet him for about 5minutes before he would be willing to do it.
    • He finally play with his 'Toys' and take his 'Treats' and successfully do some 'Sit'.

    2nd day at home!

    He wake up all fierce and mighty, and with a FLOP ear! Hubby is so dissapointed, and blame me for his flop ear because I might have damage it during the car ride back!
    The MESS he created first day!
    We used Nature Miracle, Vinegar and Baking Soda to clean up his mess and sprinkle EVERYWHERE with baking soda hoping to cleanse all the ODOUR of his urine!
    While we are scrubbing the carpet like mad, he is sleeping like a PIG!
    But for the first day, we achieved alot.
    He is successfully -
    • Crated
    • Kept in Pen while we left for Walmart.
    • Full Pee are always done in Nugi
    • Poo also in Nugi already
    • Slept in Crate throughout the night
    • He knows how to inform us in the middle of the night to bring him to Pee
    • He ate and drink well
    • He is switching over to Solid Gold with no issue.
    • We can handle his paws , tail and ears with no problem.
    • He isn't afraid of the Vaccum, no barking or snaring when I use it.
    • He trusted us, so as long as the electronics is used by us, he gladly accept it.
    • As long as the area is abit cold and windy, he falls asleep!
    • He abit 'Hum Chee', hahahaha, everything also scared. Good for us which means he don't dare to venture into kitchen or patio or run away or even toilet or our room. He just stays in the living room, near the area where he stay.

    Bad :
    • We are keeping a vigilant watch because he wants to do marking, so he cannot be trusted on the carpet.
    • He likes to be hold and cuddle ALWAYS. And he loves to jump up and sleep, on my HUMONGOUS thigh. That is his sleep Heaven!

    He has arrive in Texas!

    The Ranch; Blue Sky, Green Grass and fresh tree smell!
    The sweet lady, Connie. She is very soft spoken and a nice lady, introducing us to all the westies and puppies! We saw a few Megan's puppies, she say they be leaving soon too ...

    My first time holding him ...
    He was struggling ALOT!
    He arrived home but with a FLOP ear, YQ is devasted!!

    Sleeping soundly ...
    He was a darling throughout the trip, no mishap; no vomitting, shitting, urinating, phobia, anxiety! He was wrap around my arm, as long as I am stroking him he just fall asleep. And he slept most of the way. Although we stopped about 3x but he only urinated once in our stop and we actually stop lesser than planned.

    We are happy for now.

    Day 01
    We have also manage to successfully trick him into moving into the crate.
    He is only allow in the bedroom IF HE IS in the crate
    And some hit on the Nugi but of course there are more miss!
    He doesn't bark at our vaccum.
     He is willing to walk side by side with me (without training)
    He already can react to us, walking to me or him when called to.

    A really TIRING day for him and US!

    Almost setup!

    His Play Pen is here!
    But we will be getting a Gym Mat as his base so that any accident, it won't stain the carpet and leaves AWFUL smell! At least we can disinfect and wipe it away from a GYM MAT!
    And of course the ALL important crate!
    It is quite big, I am imagining whether my puppy will grow to such a BIG SIZE!?
    Pray hard it will remain petite! (YQ will KILL me with this thinking!) I think all man like their dogs HUGE! Each time he purchase stuffs, I will tell him that our dog is consider a SMALL size breed and he is not getting a labrador! Hahaha ~
    I am getting very excited, and not even bothered by the 8hours drive to Kansas City!

    Never ending barangs for him ...

    I don't know where the HELL did my husband find this! This is a Deluxe Thermostatic Crate Fan with COOLING SYSTEM and ADAPTER! *Faint* He read about pets overheated in their crate and I don't know how he find out about such system that can be attached to his crate! The technology nowadays is JAW dropping!

    (Price: $25.04)
    The below is sort of a 'Air Con' system ...
    Our Dog is really LUCKY hey!
    And he also bought this Gam Vittle Vault Plus 25# , to keep his kibbles fresh! Seriously I didn't even have a container for the RICE we are eating!

    (Price: $24.99)
    3 more days to go ...
