I'm Sorry!!!!

Waaahhhh...I've been too pre-occupied with work and study and look at what happened to my pet...

This is Poopa. My male black lab. My virtual pet. I was so naawa when I saw him. The least thing I can do for myself is keep a virtual pet. If I can have my way, I want to always have dogs around me. My days brighten up whenever I see dogs. Bata pa lang ako, mahilig na ako sa dogs. I play with them, feed them, clean up their mess and nakakatabi ko rin pag-sleep. =) Too bad, pets are not allowed sa place ko kaya pwede na tong virtual pet hehe. I got this from Pokey (through Facebook).

I had a pet before named Ash. She almost died of Parvovirus. But she survived!

Canine parvovirus is a particularly deadly disease among young puppies, about 80% fatal, causing gastrointestinal tract damage and dehydration as well as a cardiac syndrome in very young pups. It is spread by contact with an infected dog's feces. Symptoms include lethargy, severe diarrhea, fever, vomiting, loss of appetite, and dehydration.

I think Ash got the virus pag wino-walk ko sya kasi lagi lang sya sa loob ng house. I was almost on the verge of crying when she was defacating blood na (sorry, if you're eating) and she was almost paper thin. But with the help of a veterinarian friend, who gave her a vaccine for Parvo, she got well. I had to buy a syringe so she can drink Gatorade (for dehydration). Kasi she won't eat or drink anymore. I really had to do it to save her. She couldn't even stand up or scratch herself. Tapos one time, I was in bed and she was on the floor, nagulat ako when she stood up and scratched her ears! Meaning, she was slowly regaining her strength na. Then she drank water all by herself. I was so HAPPY!

Going back to Poopa, he won't definitely get any virus. But the REAL thing is still better than the virtual one. But i'm stil naaawa even if he's just my virtual pet hehe.

i MISS having a dog of my own. <:o(
