Mas Cargo- Pet Animal Hotel

I have experience few customers whom are very eager to know, the process of transporting their love pet.

As i have run a few times of pet transporting process. I believe that, a ground handling work and person who handle your pet is very much important. Today, i would really want to mention and give two thumbs up to Mas Cargo Pet Animal Hotel. They have superb fascilities and responsible, loving and friendly ground handling personnel. In fact, Mas cargo has been the bottle neck for all animals from live cockles, feline, canine, and even imported sheep and cattle.

I had a detour on the pet homestay/ storage behind the hotel.. It was marvellously beautiful well fascilities, temperature and even soft light for pet.

This is the front door and outlook of the retail side welcoming your pet arrival... Cute isnt it?Wait till you see inside..

QUARANTINE

QUARANTINE - Is the word that most pet owner, pet transport agent or even pet lovers hate.. it a jail period for our beloved pet..

The purpose of Quarantine is to identify an easyly spreadable desease called Rabies.The rabies virus, are presented in the saliva of an animal. It is usually spread through bites and also scratches of punctures the victim's skin. Most human victimes suffer from rabies through their own dog bites ( saliva) , suffer excruciating pain on swallowing liquids. Though they suffer from thirst, animal and human rabies victims can be terrified by the sight of water, hence another name for the disease, hydrophobia.

Symtom of Rabies- symptom of rabies usually happen between 20-60 days. Rabid animals may become aggressive, combative, and highly sensitive to touch and other kinds of stimulation. And they can be vicious. The kind traditionally associated with mad dogs. This is the reason why, the JPHPT ( Jabatan Perkhidmatan Haiwan & Perusahaan Ternak ) restricted all entry dogs must be isolated at Kinarut of a minimum of 30 days. Usually a quarantine dog can be detected with rabies if they are lethargic,weak in one or more limbs and eventually unable to raise his head and neck, and fatal.

Since in our states, stray dogs is not fully in control yet, prevention of rabies is very important.

No matter where the wound, authorities emphasize that the first and most valuable preventive measure is thorough cleaning of the site with soap and water, and immediate medical attention.
If rabies vaccine treatment is called for, it should be started as soon as possible after exposure. Counting the first day of vaccine treatment as day 0, injections are administered on days 0, 3, 7, 14, and 28.

In a business perspective, some traders might think that skiping the quarantine is the fasters way to trade their dogs. However to a more social responsibilty point of view, we just pray that the dogs that were smuggle out are rabies free, otherwise, the spreading of mad dog desease, can caused a disasters to all pet owners... which all dogs may have to be euthanized in order to cure the vulnarable spreadable desease.

Last week, I spare the morning to spend quality time with Dingo in the Kinarut quarantine station. He had a good bath, good run and even little triaining. I just wish she can come out fast and stay with us for a home quarantine. Dingo is rabies free and he is healthyly active for the next good home!

7th MKA International Dog show 2009

Judging the dog show this year, it was much lesser breed then i thought before, however with the limited exposure, Baby and I didnt have much fun, first we were kept in a hot back stage room, and secondly, the mka group 7 under Toy Group, we were kept in the room till 2 pm :(

While Baby and me were waiting for our turn the back stage were really busy with handlers grooming their participants.

This is the chow chow resting together with its owner. Chow chow is type of dog that requires cooling environment, with very frequent burshing and grooming.

As everyone is busy with their grooming before entering the ring, it is also time to all dogs lover to socialize and share their knowledge on dogs .

Here are some photos of competition and various breed during inside the ring. As we know, Sabah most favorable dogs are still German Shepherd, Doberman...here are some breed which is barely known in Sabah, the Dachshund,Chow Chow, Siberian Husky, Pomeranian, Golden Retriever as well as Labrador Retriever.

A Dog Show is just like a beauty contest. Every breed has a written standard which is describe what the head , body forelegs,hindlegs, tail placement,etc....of that particular breed should look like. In other words, the breed standard describe what a perfect specimen of a breed should look like, from head to tail....Its also to let a dog to give his best in the show ring.....

How to Potty Trained your New Puppy

Now, most of the puppy owner i met complain a lot on the potty problems of their in house fur kids. Some puppies are easy house trained however, some are forgetful especially during excitement, or looking for attention from their master.

There are various ways of potty trained :

A) newspaper trained
B) Disposable potty carpet
C) potty woodchips or crate training.

Newspaper trained are usually for puppies whom are 3 months to 5 months old. Once they are getting older, newspaper is not really as useful as most dogs understand their smells and mark their territory for their potty.

It is always good to set a timing for your dogs potty( poo poo) , after feeding them, try have a soft play and bring them out for a slow walk, this is best for them to release themselve as well as let them understand its time for potty.

My dog, Baby use to potty right after dinner ( around 20 minutes later) however after she has use to poo poo in her potty, she started to have her own schedule and never wants me to get close to her while she is doing her business.

She sniffs around and take her time, sometimes i left the poo poo for an hour or two just to let the smell slightly remain as dogs always goes back to the sma spot same smell for their business everyday...

Perhaps you can give it a try, remember, reminding them, persistant on their behavior, rewards and patience is very important to house train you dog... Good luck and happy trainning
