Dash got into a fight

It was the worst walk I had ever had with Dash.

Dash always love freedom so once I reached a quiet stretch of pavement, I will unleash him (ok, I am breaking the law but you should see how Dash wag his tail when he's unleashed.)

Soon, Dash saw his fellow mate and ran towards him. The golden retriever did not like Dash, thus they end up growling loudly at each other. Before I could pull Dash away, the golden Retriever pound on Dash!

I could see his sharp teeth biting into dash's skin. As a owner, I cannot bare to see Dash being attacked by a dog which is leashed! I quickly pull out my hand and dragged Dash out of the fight. At that moment, I was so scared and worried as I could see that Dash was losing in the fight. Luckily I managed to pull them apart. The funny thing was i kept apologising to the golden retriever's owner (for it was me who invited the fight... as Dash was unleashed). another weird thing is that the owner did not tried her very best to tame her dog.

She asked if anyone was hurt. Well, my wrist was bitten by her pet. I looked at Dash briefly and saw that he was ok, I told her that everything is fine. I walked the opposite way. After a few steps, I realised that Dash was bleeding. My heart sank. I quickly made a U-turn so I could go home to nurse him. Dash, being playful, did not want to go back!

Today, he's injuried right ear is healing and my wrist, is getting better.

Lesson learnt: Leash Dash! Beware of that Golden Retriever (they can be very fierce though they have the friendly look)

Dash was bleeding

Its tje 1st time in my "nailcutting"history that I cut Dash's nail too deep till it bleed! Dash did not scream in pain though. He just look away from me.

The bleeding did not stop till about 2 hours later. I was busy applying anti-septic on his nail and staying by his side to make sure that he would not lick the wound and the medicine as its posionious! (I do not want him to end up in the hospital)

To compensate him, I brought him to the Botanical Gardens for a walk

Dash favourite game

Dash love playing "balls". When you say, "ball", dash will look around the area for either the tennis ball or his rubber ball. Once he found it, h will wiggle his tail so hard that its like a mini fan when you are behind it. He will also pull back his ears .. these are the expressions to show that he's very happy and would like to play with you.

Dash's No. 1 Trick

With the simple command "OPEN", my Dash will leap up and push the door lever down and the door is open :D my dog is sooooo smart. Mucks x 10

Dash's "best" friend

Kitty was the 1st pet in our house. She's a stray cat however she possesses some wit. After being the dominant for more than 1 year, she got a new addition: DASH. However, Dash doesnt welcome Kitty. He would chase her and bark at her. He will not stop unless Kitty leaves the house. He will be then satisfied. Jealous freak, isn't he? Well, guess all dogs are possessive.
However, when its Breakfast time, they are very friendly to each other. No scratching or growling at all. One of Dash's favourite past-time is to look at Kitty while she's having her breakfast.

Look at him.. doesnt the expression oozed out the "greediness" in him? My dad managed to train him well enough to sit opposite Kitty to observed her quietly. His reward would be some treats from Kitty's breakfast.

swimming

Swimming, one of Dash's favourite sport. He hasn't been into the waters for quite sometime. Blame it on myself, been rather lazy. He loves retrieving things (i.e. water bottles, rubber ball) I threw to the sea (Dont worry, i'm not littering).

The outing starts of with walking through the linkway between Mandarin Gardens & Neptune Court. Dash will usually get his "business" done, sniff sniff around. The linkway will bring us to the underpass that leads to East Coast Park.



Recently, I noticed some slight changes in Dash. 1st: he's able to behave better when I leash him up. Perhaps, he came to understand that I will "reward" him by giving him some "freedom" when there are lesser people around. I would praise him for behaving well. 2ndly: He reached puberty so he tends to behave "more gentlemanly" in front of a female than with a male dog.






After about an hour of walk, Dash would be panting with lots of saliva dripping. hahaha.. disgusting right? well, dogs' mouth and tongue are their only outlet of heat and perspiration. Now, he's cooling off by drinking from the pond water.
