Dog whisperer Dolito - Pets talks: They Look Like Idiots

Yuan-Yuan the Schnauzer and two Shiba Inus (I don’t know their names because they just came here to listen to Yuan-Yuan) were taken to Miss Dolito.

 

Yuan-Yuan said, “I’m the eldest. Also the most well-behaved. I’m their leader.”

At he very beginning of his ‘speech’, Yuan-Yuan claimed that he was the eldest. Maybe it was to shut the other two up? Because big brother was talking! No one was allowed to interfere.

 

Yuan-Yuan then said, “I have another owner. He’s the one that’s taking care of me, but he isn’t here.”

 

Yuan-Yuan hoped that owner could some so that he could talk to him, but he also knew the reason why he couldn’t join them.

“He’s sick. I’m worried about him.” said Yuan-Yuan.

 

We all hoped Yuan-Yuan’s owner could get better. Health was one of the most important things in life after all.

 

In the end, Yuan-Yuan said something that he might think it would be a good ending.

He referred to the two Shiba Inus, and said, “They look like idiots.”

 

 

How innocent (and speechless) they looked!

Dog whisperer Dolito - Pets talk: That’s Embarrassing

The two kittens (Teddy and Don-Don) are growing up. They can be called cats instead of kittens now.

 

Today I took my smartphone to visit them. I wanted to take some pictures. Teddy found my intention and said quickly, “Grandma! Take close-up pictures of us. Avoid the rest of the room!”

I asked him, “Why?”

 

Teddy’s reaction was very cute. He said, “Because it’s a mess! You can’t take pictures of this. Not before it’s cleaned up.”

 

In fact, whenever I try to take pictures of them, Teddy would hear his mommy, Renee, say this. She always says, “Just take some close-up pictures of the two. Don’t include the room in the pics. It’s a mess. That’d be embarrassing!”

 

Now Teddy has learned that.

Dog whisperer Dolito~ Pets talk: Nobody Dislikes Me

Nani the Shiba Inu was a very cute girl. She sat there quietly, eyes following my camera everywhere. She knew I was taking pictures of her and she was very comfortable with that.

The owner raised Nani somewhere outside. She was planning to bring her home and to introduce her to the family. Before that, she got the chance to take Nani to Miss Dolito, to see what Nani thought.

 

Nani said to her owner, “You often play with me.“ The owner nodded. But what Nani said next was kinda confusing. She said, “Sometimes I thought you’re serious.”

 

We looked at the owner, expecting for some explanation.

 

The owner thought for a while. It seemed that she finally thought of something. She smiled a bit awkwardly and said, “Sometimes my way of playing with her is pretending that I’m going to hit her or something. I scare her intentionally. But I’m just playing. I’ll never hit her or do anything to hurt her.”

 

But apparently Nani did get scared sometimes. Nani said, “So sometimes I get angry.” The owner hugged Nani and said she’d play some normal games if she didn’t like the original ones.

 

 

Nani then turned to her owner’s friend and said, “You don’t like dogs. Not very much.”

 

The girl was surprised but confused at the same time. She said, “Why’d you say that? I like dogs.” She stared at Nani, waiting for a reply.

 

Nani said to her, “You never fed me.”

 

They laughed. The friend thought Nani’s owner feeding her was enough. But Nani saw things in a different way. We were happy that Nani’s misunderstanding could be fixed that day.

 

Nani said to her, like a reminder, “Next time, don’t forget to feed me something!”

 

 

The owner talked about her plan to take Nani home. But she was also worried about her family’s reaction. She wasn’t sure if her family was going to accept Nani as their new family member.

 

Nani smiled and said, “They will accept me. I’m one hundred percent sure. Nobody dislikes me.”

Nani’s confidence also encouraged her owner.

 

Finally, the owner asked Nani, “Am I nice to those stray dogs?” It seemed she was raising other dogs besides Nani. Nani agreed, “Very. You have a big heart.” She smiled, and then asked, “Will you get jealous?” Nani said, “No.”

 

Because those stray dogs really needed her kindness. Nani knew that. She appreciates her owner’s love, and also hoped more stray animals could be helped.

Dog Whisperer Dolito~ Pets talk: Stop using the computer!

I went to Renee’s room to visit the kittens.

The moment I opened the door, I saw Teddy lying on her keyboard.

I looked at him. He looked back at me.

Teddy said, “I won’t let Mommy use the computer!”

I asked him, “Why?”

He said, “Once she starts using it, she’ll forget about us.”

Even a little kitten knew that his mom would ignore him if she was on the computer!

Dog whisperer Dolito- I'm here!

Today I saw an article talking about how we can be blinded by our perception. Sometimes we believe in one thing and our confidence is so high that we can’t see the truth is actually different from what we think it should be.

This short story can be an example, and it’s a cute one.

One morning, Miss Dolito went into Renee’s room to see Teddy as she always did.

She saw him immediately after she came in. She hugged him and kissed him, and she could barely let go of him.

But there was a voice coming from behind her feet, saying, “I’m here! I’m here! I am Teddy! He’s not!”

Miss Dolito looked at the kitten in her hands with surprise, and then looked at Teddy, and then back at the kitten again. She had been convinced that the only kitten in Renee’s room was Teddy. But the truth was there was another kitten. Who was he by the way?

Renee, who was still lying on her bed, noticed that her mother was confused. She said, “He’s Don-Don. I brought him back just lately.”

Miss Dolito was totally without words. . .

Dog whisperer Dolito- pets talk: confidence

Miss Dolito’s family decided to have all Chocolate’s fur trimmed. He was likely to have some skin disease but they couldn’t see clearly what that was because of his fur — now he hardly have any.

They were afraid that Chocolate would depreciate himself for not looking as handsome as usual. But Chocolate seemed to take it well.

Renee was so curious about how Chocolate felt that she said, like a reminder, “Chocolate, your furs are gone.”

Chocolate said, “Yep! I look great. I look great without furs!”

Renee asked, “Won’t you feel strange that you don’t have any fur?”

Chocolate replied, “No! I like it! My head is lighter now; it used to heavier. Plus I don’t have to shake my head after drinking water; my face won’t get wet without fur!”

Renee asked jokingly, “Do you wanna look in the mirror and see how you look now?”
Chocolate asked, “What is MIRROR?”

They just found out the fact that Chocolate had never looked at himself in the mirror. How did he know if he’s handsome or not? He really was full of confidence!

Dog whisperer Dolito- Pets talk: We Will Bless You

It’s been a while since I last shared stories of our little angels in the memorial pagoda. So here’s one: this cute dog, Tien-Tien (transliteration of 甜甜, meaning ‘sweet’) was a hybrid from Maltese, Yorkshire Terrier and one or two other breeds. She’s been in our memorial pagoda for a long time.

Last year, her child, Wang-Wang (transliteration of 旺旺) passed away and their mom bought the ‘cube’ next to Tien-Tien’s, so that Wang-Wang could stay with his mother.

This is the picture of Wang-Wang:

Tien-Tien said, “We’re together again, finally! I’m happy. Thank you, Mom!”

The owner nodded. Tien-Tien went on, “You took good care of us when we were alive. Now even when we’re dead, you still take great care of us. I’m really appreciative!”

She said, “Mom. Wang-Wang and I will bless you!”

The owner asked them, “How do you feel now?” They seemed to die of disease. The owner was worried that their souls still felt painful. But Tien-Tien comforted her.

“We’re both fine. Mom. Take care of yourself.” said Tien-Tien. “I hope you can visit us often. We’ll behave ourselves. Don’t worry about us!”

Tien-Tien was really sweet. Thanks to Miss Dolito, they could still feel together even when they were worlds apart. And thank God for giving Miss Dolito this special gift to help.
