Hello!

Here’s an update on Mika! Her constipation has stopped all thanks to helpful advise from various doggie lovers out there! Been feeding her a dose of apple cider vinegar on alternate days and started mixing her Welness 95% Turkey or Lamb wet food with Addiction’s Raw Dehydrated Food for her morning meal. I was recommended to use the raw dehydrated food by another Shiba owner who feeds their pup a mixture of freshly homecooked meats and Addiction’s  raw dehydrated food. They did warn me that the dehydrated food will look like icky baby food when mixed, so I was prepared. But what I wasn’t prepared for was the smell!!! It has a very strong gamey smell which Mika loves! Now she goes crazy when I mix her food in the morning – a whole lot more than last time. (I don’t like the smell of mutton/lamb hence I don’t enjoy it as much as her) She’s surely a happy puppy every morning!

And the great news is that she’s back to poo poo-ing well and sometimes even too well! 2 times in the morning! Haha! Mika also stopped eating grass when I bring her for her walks now so that’s a good sign. I guess the lesson learnt here is that, even though giving her a high protein diet might seem good for her, but like humans, she needs her daily dose of fiber in her diet.

Mika’s getting a whole lot more interested in her world now and is less timid, looking at humans curiously and trying to get over her fear of her arch nemesis – The Umbrella! Haha…

Here’s Mika in her fetal sleeping position!

XOXO
