On the 2/1/2010, while i was parking my car for work i stumble a female mongrel dog together with 6 puppies lying on a deserted house opposite subang airport. The house has been demolished half way and all the brick and wire was left there. The female dog was very thin and her bone was visible, the puppies (aprox 2 -3 months old) looks healthy to me.
I decided to feed them kibble daily. The mother dog was very cautious with me she will wait until i put the kibble on the ground and move away only then she will eat the kibble and she never came close to me. The next day when i was on my way to feed the dogs i saw 1 more puppies is playing together with the rest of the 6 puppies that makes a total of 7 puppies. And the puppy was injured on her left leg, most probably she hurt herself while playing under the bricks and wire.
Today 6/1/2010 was very lucky for me, i was able to catch the injured puppy and bring it over to the vet.
Dr Sam told me that the puppy may have fallen or accidently cut on a sharp object while playing. It was lucky the wound been treated earlier if the wound is left untreated maggot will appear.
Dr Sam have dewormed and clean up the wound and bandage it and told me to bring the puppy over to the clinic on this coming friday 8/1/2010 for some minor operation. The minor operation is to remove some excessive flesh and to stich up the wound so that it will recover more faster.
But the real good news is the puppy was tested negative for distemper and parvo virus. Overall the puppy was in great health.
The puppy is whining and sometime a bit of howling as if to me it was calling for its mother and her sibling.
Temporary i will be fostering this puppy until it recover and hopefully there is someone is willing to adopt her, As i'm staying in an apartment and i'm having my own dog with me, i'm worry my neighbour will start to complain.
There are 6 more puppies plus the mother dog waiting for adoption.

Hooray,Sandra is been discharged from the clinic today, the vet told me that i need to keep sandra in a cage as not to let her move too much and also to keep my own dog away from her after the minor surgery.
After i reach home i put sandra into a cage where she begin to whine and howler nonstop for at least 25 minutes. Until my neighbour came knocking on my doorsteps together with a security guard, Well you don't want to know the details of our conversation, but i think you can guess as well since i'm staying in an apartment.
The vet told me to bring sandra over to the clinic on the coming week 16/1/2010 to remove the stiches.
Hence i would really appreciate if anyone can temporary help me to foster sandra until she been adopted. I'm willing to pay for sandra necessary fees like food and some vitamins and i will also help to bring sandra back to the vet to remove the stiches.
All i hope is that sandra can get adopted soon and live a happily life.
Anyone can help poor sandra???

20/01/10, i received a called from a lady telling me that she is interested in adopting one of sandra's sibling, i was so happy to hear the news and gave the lady a brief introduction of all the puppies.
I told the lady that the 4 remaining puppies excluding sandra was at a temporary fosterer house located at USJ 18 and if she was really interested in adopting the puppies she need to go to the fosterer house to view the puppies.
The lady told me she was interested in sandra as well, and i agreed to bring sandra along to the fosterer house so that she can view all the puppies.
Arrangement been made to view the puppies at 7.30pm, i arrived at the fosterer house at 7.00pm along with Mr Fatt and his wife as we all was very eager to meet the potential adopter.
By 7.45pm i received a call saying that the so called 'potential adopter' cannot make it as she got 'something' to do. And the potential adopter ask me to bring one puppy to her house so that she can help us in fostering one of the puppy.
Off i go driving all the way from usj 18 to meet the 'potential adopter' near her housing area at subang perdana. The poor little puppy was having carsick and he vomited inside the car 3 times.
After meet up with the 'potential adopter' i gave her a long briefing around 25 minutes regarding the puppy as she told me that she does not have the experienced in handling dog but would like to try on it.
After the long briefing i passed the puppy over to the 'potential adopter' , i was very happy that at least there is some kind soul out there is willing to help out in fostering.
Less than 1 minute drived i received another distress called from the 'potential adopter' telling me that the puppy has again vomited at her hand, so as quick as possible i make a u-turn to meet them up.
I explained to her that the puppy was carsick and when the puppy reach her home he will not be vomiting again, but i warned her that the puppy may again vomit inside her car.
The lady was so frightened and quickly tell me that the car does not belongs to her it belongs to her father and tomorrow she will be working leaving the puppy and her mum at the house. She was worried that her mum might not be able to handle the puppy.
What is she talking about??? with a firm tone i told her that she must be ready to face the facts that puppy will vomit when they get carsick. What the hell is the long briefing for.
I take the puppy away from her and with a harsh tone i told the lady next time please do make up your mind if you think you want to help, and not by pure impulsive decision. And most importantly pleased do not waste we as independent rescuer time. You are treating me like a fool by driving around.
With the help from Mr Fatt and Wife we drove all the way to setia alam asking another fosterer for help in taking care the puppy. Ms Shirley the temporary fosterer was so kind and she agreed to foster the puppy without hesitation.
And i reach home at 11.45 pm, Sigh...........
To all the so call 'POTENTIAL ADOPTER' / 'POTENTIAL FOSTERER ' out there please do some research before you think you want to adopt a dog or helping out as fosterer.
What a waste of time and bad luck for me meeting up with this type of fake people pretending to be kind hearted..
