During Hatlee visit with the vet last friday, the Doctor told us our boy contracted Kennel Cough and we suspect he got it when he was in SPCA previously. He was given anti-biotics for 2 weeks and is due for another visit 2 weeks later for a follow up.
Like a kid, he doesn't respond well to medication, so we tricked him by wrapping his medicines with a slice of cheese. Thinking it's his treat, he gobble it all down. Infact, I think he looks forward to his slice of "Special" cheese every morning.
Somehow Hatlee doesn't eat as much as we want him to and the vet suggested we feed him with white rice and boiled chicken (human food). Fortunately I told Sommer about it and she advised me against it cause once we get him started, dogs tend to not eat their food anymore and start wanting to eat our food and may even start the annoying habit of begging since they have taste something good. Thank godness for Sommer's advise or not I would have fed him human food and end up with a bad habit of his to break.

So NO, we're not following the vet's advise. Instead, I break his dog treats (milk bones) into 3 pieces and buried it into his dog food and Hatlee just have to eat his way into his treat. Yah, that's the Dog Whisperer for you ! *lol*
Meanwhile our insane puppy is still jumping around, running all over the place and playing with us every single chance he gets. But he's still a good boy and we all love him very much. I managed to snap some photos of him. There's one of him in his crate sleeping last night. No Joke, he really sleeps with his limbs up in the air. I don't know why but he does that all the time.
Enjoy....
