Ruby with her Toy


Ruby is now not so possessive over her toy, a tennis ball.

She used to hold it with her mouth most of the time, thinking that we will snatch it from her.

But we have let her alone with her ball and she is now more relax and not so snappy....ha...ha...




A nice shot of Ruby.

Jack Sunbathing

Jack likes to laze around under the sun....
















You can see that Jack is facing towards the inside of the house and not looking outside.


He is very sensitive to our presence or movement inside the house.

And, of course, he is looking forward to us coming out to give him a treat too ........ha....ha....

Ruby Dog Pen Extended

Since Ruby was not successfuly re-homed, we decided to extend her pen and give her more space.













Her crate was also put inside the pen since there is much more space and she likes it too......

Re-homing Ruby

A family was interested to adopt Ruby when they found out that she is a Corgi.

They somehow have a liking for Corgi only.....?

But they already have two Corgis already as shown below :







Scrappy, the male Corgi.


















Daisy, the female Corgi.










Unfortunately, Scrappy and Ruby could not get along so after spending a night and a day together, Ruby was returned to us.

Ruby got along well with Daisy though as shown above; roaming the garden together.


Well, Ruby is very dominant and definitely should be the only pet dog in the family....?

Caught Red-handed Again

Eventhough we tried to fenced up the hibiscus planat, Jack was caught red-handed trying to go for the leaves again.......!

Naughty Jack!





Jack found a way in to get closer to the plant.....














Oooops......caught within the wire fence...?













Jack was getting desperate and bold....!

We have no choice but to put smaller pots around the plant so that Jack cannot sneak in again!

Rubby & Her Toy

Hi,

Ruby has her own toy and it is a tennis ball.

We used to bounced it on the floor and she would bark like crazy.

When she catches it with her mouth, she would guard it and growl at you. We dare not snatch it from her and would have to distract her from the ball to get it back.

Recently, in her new dog pen, we decided to let her keep her toy the whole day.

















I think she senses that we are not taking it back so she will just guard it or even let it off her guard. I would take it and bounce it inside her pen to play with her.
And if I want to take it from her, I would hold her collar and pull her away from the ball as I think she will still snap at me but she has stopped growling though.

Jack & Ruby Separation

Hi,

I have made a bigger dog pen for Ruby so as to isolate her from Jack since she last attacked Jack, read my earlier postings.

Jack is allowed to roam free though since he was our first dog and given his seniority; 12 years old now.

But he is also chained occasionally when we have guests or expecting Jason's tutor in the evening as we are concerned that they open the gate too wide and Jack will make a go for it....naughty old man!




With this arrangement, we have to take Ruby out for a short walk to pee; 3 times a day. But we also take Jack out too so that he will not be jealous about it.













Ruby is enjoying her nap..... while Jack is looking inside the house and hoping to get some snacks or treats......ha...ha....

Annual Vaccinations For Jack & Ruby

Hi,

Jack & Ruby were taken to the vet for their annual vaccinations recently.



Ruby was placed in front with me and Jack was given the back seat with my housekeeper, Jean.



Unfortunately, I have muzzled Ruby to prevent her from starting a fight with Jack in the car.

At the same time, the vet also took a look at Jack's wounds and they are recovering very well.


I believe in having Jack and Ruby vaccinated yearly and dewormed.

Some dog owners do not do it as they try to cut cost but it is not advisable as it may not only harm your pets but you too, indirectly.
