I've always had cats at home, so yesterday i caught a teeny glimpse of what it is like to be a dog owner. Ladies and gents. Behold.
Mini, the toy poodle!
Quick digression about toy poodles. I first heard about them from Kei, back in my part-timer days at CNX. I was talking about the general uselessness of tiny dogs when she said "Oh, i have a toy poodle" and i thought it was literally a stuffed toy sort of poodle so i ignored her and continued saying stuff like "these dogs, the thief come kick them once they die adi".
Mini belongs to my sis's friend. And she brought him home for 1 night to play with him. Ha! Reminds me of Wing's feather duster mutt.
Was quite fun. Mini was
a) friendly
b) but quiet
c) toilet trained
d) trained to respond to "sit"
Awesome, right anot! Hyper and friendly but quiet is the best combo. He gets excited once he sees people. Sis has this mosquito net on her door and it's all distorted and cacated from his vigorous scratchings. -_-".
Initially he refused to play with his chewy toy turtle coz Sis sucks and dunno how to play with dogs, but with me and Dad around, ho! We unleashed his inner devil. Trick is to pretend to pull the toy away and he'll chew with fury! Ngahahaha!!
c) Toilet trained. As in he only does his doggy business on the wee-wee pad, which was to be deployed in a corner on newspapers. Once nature calls he'll pop over to his corner. Pretty simple.
But not too simple la, cost wise. Can't imagine how much is needed to buy the dog-damned absorbent pads.
I guess once the novelty wears off, it isn't fun anymore. So dogs should only be borrowed and played with for a day, then returned to their rightful owners. I'm not mentally equipped to rear one full time as they're too needy.
