Shi-Tzu Grooming

From the time I got Jasmine i can't help but search images of this breed online.  Dog wise, they are the most elegant and fashionable looking breeds in the dog world. Their fur can stretch from their bellies down to the floor. Unfortunately, i have not seen a single soul of this said breed here in Thailand having long fur. Most of them have been groomed with almost no fur at all. There was one whom i thought was sick and i never recognized the breed hehe.

Kidding aside Jasmine's nails were trimmed so as the fur that covers her eyes and nose. I guess at some point she was happy with the grooming thingy because her eyes are visible. Her most probable problem i think was the treatment at the shop. For us she is being pampered like a baby - for them she is just a ordinary dog that needs to be groomed. 

Seeing her transformed from a normal dog without eyes to a fashionable dog with tantalizing eyes lol, we decided that Jasmine will be visiting the shop once a week to have her groom and to avoid her fur to mat. I am sure you all will agree upon seeing her photos now! Such a cutie puppy!

Jasmine in Blue

Recently, we went to see her vet for her monthly regular check up and had her anti-rabies vaccine as well. She was uneasy with other dogs who were screaming in pain while being treated at the vet's shop. One was hit by a car and the other was wounded in yet another dog fight on the street.

Jasmine gained weight from 1.5 kilo last month to 2.8 kilos this month. The cashier was surprised seeing her grew fast and even more playful. She then recommended a dog shirt to make her look more beautiful. I thought she liked us to buy whatever they have there but when she tried it to Jasmine, she looked indeed cute with the shirt on. I decided to have it purchased and let the shirt on until we got home.

These are the photos of Jasmine with the blue shirt on. She looks just like a baby - so adorable and cute! Some of my friends liked and commented on her photos on facebook. Hmm, I've got more photos of her to be posted soon. I'm sure she will receive more likes and comments.

Walk at the Park

Jasmine enjoys having a walk at the park and the not so occasional stares and gentle rubs from strangers. It's as if all the people and the scary looking dogs there were her friends. I've read that these are her breeds characters - friendly, playful but sometimes stubborn in their own right.

When i unleashed her she was like a prisoner who was given a pardon. She happily run like crazy whilst occasionally bumping to other people's feet. Some were surprised but mostly were happy. Just like us, they fell in love with her easily. When we got home she was dead tired and drunk huge amount of water, probably a glass and a half full. After having dinner she looked for a spot where she can take a rest. Poor little puppy hehe.

Me and Jasmine

Giving a walk to dogs of all breeds help them burn fats, be active and get to see other things around them. It's one form of exercise for the pet and the pet's owner as well. Ciao!
