I'm so blessed that I have pets at home. On 6 August 2008, these two lovely puppies born in my uncle's house. My sister named it Xiao Bai (White) and Xiao Hei (Black) which is not exactly their own colour. My Xiao Bai is milky white with light brown patches on his body meanwhile my Xiao Hei is totally brown in colour. No doubt this two sibling dogs are unique in its own way. I still remember when both puppies are three months old, Xiao Bai fell sick until nearly lost his life due to continuous vomiting and diarrhea around one week. Thinking that he was not going to life longer, I took him home so that he can he can pass away peacefully beside Xiao Hei. To my surprise, both pups touched my heart deeply when both of them see each other, the strong feeling of brotherhood. They were happily hanging around and eventually Xiao Bai sickness cured amazingly.
Everything went fine these few years. Both puppies grew up to be big dogs and brings laughter and joy to my family. They are as naughty as other dogs; urinating around, mess up with newspapers by biting it into smaller pieces all over the house, pull longer clothes and bed sheet for himself to sleep on, hiding one side of shoes or slippers in hard to find places and etc...Sounds pretty annoyed but sweet enough.
Xiao Bai favourite spot to rest during mid-day
Early this year after Chinese New Year Eve, Xiao Bai fell sick again after tremendous fire crakers show for days. When my sister left to KL to help my parents, my brother called one day to inform us that Xiao Bai nearly pass away. In less than one week, a meaty and fleshy dog changed to skinny dog because he was unable to eat and drink. My sister cried when she knew that and rush back urgently from KL back home just to wish to see him for the last time. Guess what?? She got really emotional as both dogs are part of her organs. She even dare to swore to switch her lives with her dogs. Maybe her sincerity touched God and once again, Xiao Bai cured amazingly.
New family members: Lobok Zai
Two months ago, my brother brought back a greyish (rats colour) dog back home and named him Lobok Zai (a.k.a Carrot Baby). This name suits this lovely pup so much as he was hyper active, restless all the time and eat non-stop. I'm getting eager to see him when I got to know this new family member coming. At last, I got the opportunity to see him during some occasions which I cannot remember. True enough, he looks like rats but dog version rats and 'ang moh' eyes. OMG...adorable enough....The moment I reach the front gate of my house, he did not bark me eventhough this is first time he saw me. I still remember very well his "souvenir"...spraying his urine upwards on my hand. Lolz....
Lobok Zai cuddling around
Sadly to say, good times pass so fast. Two weeks ago, both Xiao Bai and Lobok Zai passed away. On October 6, 2012, a white colour Hilux ran over Lobok Zai and he pass away on the spot. This cute little pup just came to this world in less than half year and now he left us. He left our heart imprinted with his joy. Xiao Hei seemed to reluctant to accept the fact that Lobak Zai die, keep on barking at his carcass until Lobak Zai is buried.
My mum gave me a call that Xiao Bai was so sick. Both my mum and brother unable to feed medicine to him as we knew Xiao Bai was quite aggressive when taking tablets. This time, Xiao Bai didn't managed to pull through and pass away two days later after Lobak Zai.
Xiao Bai is really a good dog. Knowingly that he will pass away sooner, he ran out of the house to make sure that he did not die at home. We only manage to find his carcass two days later. If my sister knew this, she will rather skip the whole coming exam to see Xiao Bai. So, we decided to hide the death of Xiao Bai and Lobok Zai from her although we knew we should not hide it in first place.
I wondered why the lives of both dogs were so short until both of us unable to see them for last time. They are my family, my best friend, mates forever as they are the one who will keep you accompanied all the time. May Xiao Bai and Lobak Zai rest in peace. May God bless them.
