Morning Walk + Crossing The Bridge

With Scallop growing bigger and taller, he's able to climb and jump greater heights. During the morning walk today, we were teasing him by climbing on the ledge within the basketball court so he can't reach us. Who knows he actually attempt to jump up onto the ledge! Unfortunately for him, he mis-calculated and didn't make it the 1st time round. Not being one to give up easily, he tried again and this time round, managed to do it successfully! Too bad we did not capture his antics on video at that time.

Crossing the overhead bridge has been part of his walks, with him being able to reach greater heights now, the steps are of no problem to him at all these days.









At the end of his morning walk and cleanup, he's tired out as usual. These should also be the last photos of Scallop with his unkempt puppy look. Tomorrow he'll be going for his first ever full grooming at Petopia.

How Scallop is like when we are about doing our own stuff and he's enclosed alone in the kitchen :

3rd Vaccination + Microchip

Was 15 mins late for the 10.15am appointment @ ARC Balestier for Scallop's 3rd and final vaccination needle. The place was busy considering it's a weekday. Took his weight after registration; a whopping 4.06kg!!! Geez, are we overfeeding him??


Waiting for our turn



Inside consultation room after having his little arse poked (temperature)


Even the nurse commented that Scallop look unkempt!


And also cannot see his eyes...




Scallop was attended by Dr Lee Yin Lin. The vaccination needle went inside him ok. Just a couple of tiny whines. It's a totally different story when he's being microchipped though! Scallop was totally distressed and was yelping and crying through the procedure... Sob! Sob! Poor dog... Asked Dr Lee about his 2 bumps on his right front elbow and was told it's a minor infection. Was advised to apply Panalog Ointment given from the previous consultation. Was also prescribed with 3 doses Revolution to prevent heartworm disease and to a certain extend, flea infestations. Am thinking of giving him separate heartworm medicine and Frontline Plus instead of Revolution after the 3 doses are finished.

Microchip - S$40
Revolution for Small Dogs - S$67 (geez! doggyfriend.com is selling @ just S$55.80!)
Vaccination - S$54
Total charges @ ARC : S$161

Will be applying for a proper dog license for Scallop thru AVA ASAP and then to take advantage of PLC's Puppy Bonus Plan to get a bag of 1.5kg Fish4Puppies (his current main staple), 1 Trustie Poop Bag Canister and a Puppy Essentials Booklet.
