Look Mee, sad girl



One day 5 years ago, I walked pass a pet shop. Normally, I look down and try to stride it as fast as possible but on that day, there was some kind of power attract me to look inside. I only wanted to "glance" but my eyes met with a Boston Terrier dog, who pathetically sat in a small cage and sadly looked through a mirror. I forgot where I wanted to go but quickly marched into that pet shop. I asked for name and price, which was very high then took "Look Mee" out. Look Mee, is a Boston Terrier girl with a sweet face and a very tiny body. At that time, she was 2 years old. I took her to one of my cousins' house to observe if she had any contagious deceases since she looked weak. As I thought, she had a serious infected decease. It took her a whiled to be cured and of course, I spent so much to heal her. Once she recovered I took her home.


Look Mee was a sad quiet dog. If she saw anyone, she would try to hind as conceal as she can. But if she didn't see any human, she would lively run with puppies. Her behavior was similar to a horse chasing after puppies in circle. It was a beautiful picture, which I had to hind myself and looked from the window in the house.


Time passed, I felt that my house was getting too crowded so I was thinking about looking for a new house for Look Mee. Fortunately, a friend of mine liked Look Mee so much and he has only 2 Malteses with him. We agreed he would adopted Look Mee. Today... is the day my friend was supposed to come pick her up.

In the early morning, a maid went to wake Look Mee up to exercise and "party" as usual but found out she was sleeping breathlessly in her place. There was no reason and no sign telling us before.

Today, there were so many things upset me but, loosing almost all money,tear and hope, nothing brought sadness and depression to me, my family and my maids as much as the lost of Look Mee.

Sue Donovan and her rescue chis

Sue Donovan lives in New hampshire with her seven chihuahuas, mostly from rescue. She became disabled and is quite limited in ability to get around without help. She said her chihuahuas literally gave her the will to keep on living.

She said " My chis are my family. I never had children - they are my babies. I would never trade them for all of the money in the world. Recently I moved to a new house. Some people were surprised I brought all of my chis with me. How could they be? Would they leave a child behind? "

I wonder if there are many abandoned chihuahuas in this world? Aren't they too tiny,too sweet,too innocent to be abandoned?

Not every abandoned dogs will get an adoption.Eventhogh they have a new home,bad experiences will stay with them for long. Sue also talked about bad experinced of one of her chis.

My little fluffy boy Yoda was severely abused. When I got him he was very traumatized and would not allow me to touch him. He was nearly starved to death. For three months he would try to bite me if I tried to give him any kind of affection. He hid in a pet bed in my kitchen. When he finally ventured out of his hiding place to join us, he would nip if I made a sudden movement. He had no idea what toys were and if I tried to play with him he'd run and hide. Even after he let me touch him, if I tried to move him while he was sleeping he snap or nip. It took almost a year, but now he is the sweetest, most loyal little boy. He allows me to clean his eyes, cut his nails, even put him on his back while I brush him. When I give him a bath I massage him from head to toe

And you know, one of Sue's Baby Gizzie won a spot as November in Chihuahua Connection's 2009 calendar. Here is the link. She is the little baby in the striped sweater and hat:

Sue wrote to me that :Before this, I'd never won a contest in my life. I am so proud of her!!

Saiyai at Central Park,NYC

Saiyai and ThanOng went to have their own mini picnic at Central Park, NYC


They look happy and the weather seems good in NYC


Saiyai tried to take a picture from Ong's back side to avoid seeing his tongue out of his mouth. Unfortunately, we can see it. Sorry Saiyai.



Saiyai loves every breed that has a wrinkled face and breathes heavily. She met this lovely bulldog at the park.

Diana at skiing

It is funny that I know and respect Diana without actually meeting her in person or even seeing her picture. In fact, I thought the lady, who showed her dog on the website was her.


I love in her brilliant thoughts, love the way of life that adventurous and benefits for other people, love her hobbies that some of them were my dream before, love her sincerity that she jumped to help me when I had a problem and when I needed friends. These things happened beautifully without me meeting her before.


Until recently, Diana sent her pictures to me. Oh she is so beautiful and looks so much alike her daughter, Nina. (Nina's picture is in the Dresden website with a puppy) I'm happy to get to see


Diana has an amazing hobby, riding horses. She sent me a picture of her favorite horse and wrote a short story about the horse.

And skiing is one of her happy hobbies. Look at her at skiing in Colorado.



impessive short story of Diana's dearly horse

This is a picture with a short story of Diana's horse which she love him dearly. It seemed to be a long writing but thinking of 17 years(and many longer from now,I wish) with what we love,it would be very short story.Diana's skill in writting is nice as well.


Dear Joom,
Here I attach to you a photo of my horse Gaucho. Gaucho and I have been together for 17 years. They live up until 30 years.
Gaucho is in great shape but he is not the horse I used to ride in competitions. Those show horses are crazy and you have to be careful.

But Gaucho has always been my pet, the kind of horse you can ride around here in the groves of mango and avocado.

In this photo, Gaucho looks guilty because he decided to investigate the downstairs laundry room, which was open, and he knocked around some soap and trash containers, throwing it all on the floor.

I snuck around with the camera when I heard the banging and falling things, and caught him in the act. You can see how quilty he feels and how quickly he is leaving the laundry room.

Gaucho is a Spanish Paso Fino, born in Colombia and brought to the US. He has a wonderful gait, for example, he moves fast but the rider does not bounce on his back. He is very flashy and for an experienced rider, because he loves to show off. But he is not mean or dangerous.

I am very attached to Gaucho and he is my favorite horse.

I have a short story about Gaucho that will prove how smart he is....one day, we were riding on a trail and Gaucho became scared of a plastic bag that was flying around in the air, it was a windy day.

He swerved and jumped off the trail and right into a neighbor's plowed field. Luckily, I managed to stay mounted, and I was guiding him off the field when one of his feet just went down into the earth, lowering his front immediately and catapoulting me over his head. When I hit the dirt, he tried to stand up. He had put his whole leg into a twelve inch irrigation well.....now, with all his effort, he withdrew his leg which was not broken, thank goodness. Just then, I noticed that my fall over his neck had placed me in a bad position with the stirrup and my foot was caught in the stirrup. Gaucho trembled from his fall, and looked around to see me on the ground, attached to him by the stirrup. My heart started beating really hard; I thought that if Gaucho took off running in panic, he could drag my body for miles on the ground and this might even sever my foot from my leg.

There, from the ground, I talked to Gaucho and asked him to stay calm and not to move. I tried to rise on just one leg, but I couldn't get it positioned under me because my other leg was hanging straight up there on the stirrup in a twisted position. I could not get it untwisted. I made several attempts to get my foot disengaged, and I even kicked Gaucho on his belly accidentally. He trembled all over, I knew he wanted to run; but I begged him, please please help me, Gaucho, and don't move.

I took a deep breath, and dragged my body closer to Gaucho's foot. His leg was wet from the well water but he was unharmed. I grabbed his leg and slowly using my hands climbed up his leg until I grabbed his long mane and got my good foot under me. At this point I must have looked like a ballerina, one foot on the ground, the other leg pointing high as if on a ballet barre. From that angle, though, I was able to grab the stirrup and twist my foot out of it.

With both legs on the ground, a wave of relief and gratitude rushed over me. I held on to Gaucho, he was shaking and snorting, now I was shaking too, and we both stood there in that open field knowing we had avoided real disaster. Happily, both Gaucho's leg and my leg were intact except for a few minor scrapes.

I bent down to see the well, curious about something so small that could cause so much grief. I could barely see it; I parted some grasses, looking down for it, and all of a sudden I saw my face reflected in the water, surrounded by ferns. I pulled back in surprise, not aware that the water level was so close to surface.

As I rode back home on Gaucho, I remembered an old Arab prayer from the Koran....about why Allah created the horse: "I have made thee unlike any other...all the treasures of the Earth lie between thine eyes...thou shall cast mine enemies between thy hooves, but you shall carry my friends upon they back...this shall be the seat from which prayers rise up unto me."

And grateful prayers did rise from me as I rode my horse, whose love for me conquerered his fear and stopped him from running away when I needed him so much to stand by me.

So you can see why Gaucho is so spoiled around the yard, he eats flowers and I don't complain about it.

When Gaucho becomes too old to ride, he will retire under my care and not be ridden any more. I will watch him from the kitchen in the shade of the fruit trees, as he stands there waiting for a mango to drop. I will love him all of my days.

Hugs,
Diana

more...about "Honey"'s destiny




As we always say, dogs have their own destiny. It is the same in this case. I intended to keep "Honey" for myself but once I have money problem and received contact from Mellissa so I tried to change Honey's destiny by letting her to go to Melissa. But now there is some issue that hasn't reached the agreement therefore Honey will be with me.

I won't offer the little sweet "Honey" to anybody else.

Yes, I'm still in troble with "empty wallet syndrome" but I'll find another way to recover it.

Please note that there is no hard time between Mellisa and me but we have diffrent worry points and we didn't reach agreement. If there was anyone to be guilty with this case,it was me!! I was too hurry to make a deal and to anounce.

Actually, selling or not selling are not the matter that should be written on a blog but since I wrote about it before and that Honey is not going anymore so I just want to inform .

Saiyai's pups to "Kaljaruek"family



วันหยุดสุดสัปดาห์ที่ผ่านมา เป็นวันที่ดิฉันมีความสุข และรู้สึกเป็นเกียรติที่ได้ต้อนรับ ผู้บริหารจากคระกูล "กัลย์จาฤก" ที่มารับลูกสุนัข Cavalier King Charles และ ลูกชิวาวา ไปเป็นสมาชิกในครอบครัวใหญ่ที่น่ารักและอบอุ่น

คุณปนัดดา กับคุณจิตรลดา 2 พี่น้องเป็นตัวแทนของครอบครัวมารับ puppies ทั้งสองที่โชคดีมาก มีลูกสาวคนสวยของคุณปนัดดา ซึ่งเป็น generation ที่ 3 ของครอบครัว มาด้วยค่ะ



For all my foreigner friends, the Kaljaruek family who owns the Kantana Entertainment(Kantana Group Public Company Ltd) have came to purchase my puppies. Kantana Entertainment is the hub on producing, editing, and creating in films and animation, which is one of the biggest and the most well known industry in the region.

two sisters from this family came,with a young beautiful 3rd generation of the family, to adopt one Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy out of my Th.Ch.Prince at Heart and they also adopted a male chihuahua puppy out of my sweet Tommy and Diorissimo. Many people have wanted this boy and it's my honour to decide to give this boy to the Kaljaruek family.

"Honey" to go to Mellissa







"Honey" is a female pup out of Tommy (Am.Th.Ch.Belive in Tommy boy) and my pretty "Diorissimo".

I've always intended to keep this sweet Honey to show, breed, and be her mom's companion. So I rejected all of my friends who interested in buying her.

But as I always believe, every dog have their own destiny including "Honey" who I intended to keep. Until today, There's an incident that change my goal by letting her go and become a big champion at my friend's family.

Mellissa at Fashionista, USA wrote to me and showed her passion of wanting to have Honey to her family to show and breed. If it was before, I would politely reject the offer but today Melissa came to me at the right time. You may wonder why I say that?

I lost a huge amount of money on the stock market and I also lost another amount in a stupid way. Together, it's a huge amount of money which I need to have it back. So I must gather all the money in every way. When Mellissa wrote to me, It made me stop and think about letting Honey go.

I visited Melissa's website and I found that Melissa's family are real dog's lovers. Her family has bred dogs for three generations, more than fourty years. One of the reasons that I should trust and be honour to send Honey to them. I never send any dogs to California before which is where Melissa's family located. It seems like a good opportunity for both to me and her.

Honey will go to Melissa's place by flying with Saiyai. They will go during early January with puppies of Diana,Gayle,Michelle,Selena and Eren.

I am so sorry and beg for apologies to all the friends that contacted for purchasing Honey. As I said earlier, all the puppies has its own destiny and Honey's was to be with Mellissa. It's a deal that takes in a right time, right place, right situation.

Tobias Kievit



เด็กคนนี้อยู่ Netherland ค่ะ อายุ 8 ขวบ เป็นครอบครัวที่เลี้ยงชิวาวา Tobias อายุ 8 ขวบ มีความพิการทางสมองอยู่แล้วจากอุบัติเหตุทางการแพทย์เมื่อแรกเกิด มาโดนรถชนซ้ำเมื่อเร็วๆนี้ และต้องนอนป่วยด้วยอาการที่หนักกว่าเดิม แต่เจ้าชิวาว่าน้อยของเขาดูท่าทางจะไม่รู้ว่าเจ้านายเป็นอะไร เลยเข้ามาหลับเป็นเพื่อน เป็นอย่างนี้...ทุกวันค่ะ

I have a friend in Netherland,name Sylvia Kievit.Sylvia and her husband,Martin,have bred Sphynx cat for long time and they're very famouse there.Martin and Sylvia has started with chihuahuas recently. They have a son name Tobias,8 years old.Tobias is the lovely boy in the upper picture, and here's the short story of him...

Tobias is 8 years old. When he was born, there was a mistake in the
anesthesia process, which made the oxygen couldn't go to his brain
enough. He grew up with an abnormal brain. His development is
"younger" than his actual age. But he is loved. He loves things around
him - his mom, his dad, cats and chihuahuas. He goes to a school for
special needs children. This family seems as happy as it could be..

But...recently, he was hit by a car. He was injured and stayed in a
hospital for many days. His condition gets worse - both body and brain.
His mom said that he originally couldn't help himself much. He barely
walks and feed by mom when he eats. He has a headache often and sleep
most of the time. That might be the way his injured body heals by
"sleeping". When he sleeps, his chihuahua goes to sleep with him.
Sylvia told me that this is an image of what happens in her house, on
her son bed, everyday. Sylvia is tired, sad and hurt the way parents
would understand without any explaination.

I would like to ask all my friends to pray for your holy in your
religion to give a miracle for this family.

There are many other tragic stories in this world but..look at him.
He's lovely, bright and shouldn't he have a better condition? At
least, I hope he can come back to laugh, playful and able to hug his
parents and his pet once again.

More..with Saiyai&Than-Ong


Saiyai came out door with Than-Ong to dine out and to observe the debate of the 2 candidates.

Saiyai & Michelle first met in persons at NYC

October 13th (12th in New York) is a day that I'm very happy about because Saiyai, my daughter, got to go out and relax and join a doggie Halloween party at Animal Haven (a dog rescue charity) after an invitation form Michelle. I was glad because Saiyai and Than-Ong got to get away from the hard work at school to enjoy what she loves, which she didn't expect to see or be part of it because she's just a foreign girl in a foreign country. Everything happened because of Michelle.

Of course, what makes me happy the most is that my daughter got to meet Michelle, a good friend that we love, in-person.

Saiyai was very happy to be there and she was extremely excited to see Michelle. On the other hand, Michelle said that she was very happy to meet Saiyai in person, too. It seems that they really like each other. How happy I am to know that!

Thank you again, Michelle, for inviting and sharing a good time with Saiyai.



ThanOng, while waiting to enter the event. It seems like Saiyai is not afraid ThanOng will get lost at all. She is pretty sure that if he is lost the lost and found people would not have a hard time looking for him. It would be easy to just say that he's a dog with wrinkled face and tongue that can't be kept in his mouth!


Skyler flew from Chicago to join.He was holding"Amour",Michelle's gorgeous female chi.
