Milo

Milo doesn't have a smooth story to tell.

First, he was born at an abandoned crumbled house. She & other 2 siblings were taken to Mayo Clinic to be adopted. Initially, a black & white pup was chosen by LS. However, upon his arrival, Milo was more active than her sibling. Where else, another black pup was even more active than her!

She was put in a box & was taken out at LS's house gate. Before she got a chance to enter the house, Toro greeted her with over-enthusiasm! Too much that we viewed it as puppy bully. Milo was being biten, chased around & she had to attack back. In order to defense herself.

That's why, I initially named her Zorro. Due to her fighting spirit. However, after 2 weeks pass, she got used to Toro's treatment that we no longer think her fighting spirit were as strong a my first impression. So, I named her Milo due to her coat colour - white & chocolate.

Right from the first day, I can c that she is the smarter one. And she proved it! She's more agile, wittier & not as foolish as Toro (though she's only 3 months while Toro is about 6 months I guess)

She don't eat much, unlike Toro who wobble up everything we gave him (he's worried that food will be finished up by Milo). She won't venture too far away from her owner. On the other hand, I feels that Toro is more loyal. Both will come home on their own after some time outside.

I was surprised to see Milo one day last week when she stand for 3 secs on her hind legs! That's fabulous! She likes to snatch things away from Toro also. Somehow, I feel that both of them will never be best friend together. The only reason was that we rear both of them together. Both LS & me felt like we are raising kids of our own...

I do. Especially when I hug them like a human baby. I lied down on the floor with Toro & let him lick my face too. I took so many photos of them than I did these few years of myself!

They went for their first injection the 2nd week they were here, 16th Jan 2010 (Sat). The vet said that we are not suppose to bath them for 10 days! Reason was the injection was injected under their skin, not into their veins. I bet both of them must be relieved! As they often try to break free when I shower them... This means that they can only be showered on 27th Jan. Another week to go...& they are already so smelly! I have to change my shirt daily as they smelled so doggy!

Milo is certainly the more active one, faster movement. Both our dogs were so blessed as LS & I plays with them daily & took them out for long walks. Furthermore, they get to eat rice + chicken + cabbage. Aren't they getting enough nutrition? No wonder they keep passing motion!
