I have a Shiba dog(it is generally a hunting dog breed from Japan), her name is 鈴鈴. She is adorable, endearing, friendly towards people. If anyone is willing to play with her, readily gives up control of her toys to me and barking at the appropriate time, but not excessively.
She is actually a quite hygienic and weird dog. She does not like to urinate at home, so she must go outside to have a pee. However, when I want to take her to walk, she does not show her happiness until putting her breast strap on her. Before walking, she likes to hide under the couch or bed to play some games with you. After she has the breast strap on her, she will happily to go walking with you.
When she was very young, around 4 months old, she was very active and would always jump on my bed, but suddenly her legs became lame. Veterinarian diagnosed a rupture cruciate ligament. I took her to veterinarian in Taipei, to find a very famous veterinarian who is professional in this kind of surgery, to stabilize the femur in the tibia. Fortunately, she turned out well after a few weeks of this complex and crucial surgery.
When she was under the age of 5 years, I took her to perform tubal ligation, which makes an incision in the abdomen, finds the fallopian tubes and cut each side. The surgical ligation was very success as it was executed by my best friend, who also originally born in Malaysia and studied the same high school as me, she is a compassionate, caring and mindful person. I felt secure after my dog took several days' rest and it became usual to take her meal at the right time. Before ligation, she is very picky eater and sometimes refused to eat her meal. She was a slim and itchy dog, her weight around 8kg. After few months of it, she became heavier and have more appetite to consume more food unstoppably. She has chubby body but her weight has been increased to 12kg. After surgery, she had more oil in her body, so the dry skin has been moisturized and she is less sensitivity to the dry skin.
Now she is 9 years old and still looks healthy, but her legs sometimes still have a little lameness as she can barely endure the weight on her legs. I wish she could be live happily and healthier , so I often offer her some expensive health products to reduce painful on her legs. Otherwise I hug her after she walks up and walks down the stairs every day to reduce the impact on her legs. She also loves to sleep beside me.
