ah soh, the temple dog

,p> Ah soh is the perfect small size,female white dog with brown spots on its body which I adopted from a chinese guys who tried to throw away this puppy in to the Batu Caves river just because he cant afford to buy food for it. Luckily, and thank the god I was there with my another friend for cutting banana leaf for a occasion at a temple nearby. I managed to save the puppy and I brought it to our Jada Jothy temple, built a cage for her and raised the puppy till now.I also adopted two more dogs one of it an abondoned female puppy from the street at Batu Caves,Jenny and a male dog,also adopted, Rex.As usual I came back from badminton last Tuesday to feed the dogs at Jada Jothy temple. My routine everyday actually. This time I came to shock to listen the cries of puppies from ah soh;s cage. I tried to peep inside to see how many and there was two puppies with ahsoh. Its quite alright, but of curiosity I looked down the cage, there was it, two puppies dead ,not moving or even breathing. I dont have any idea why this dog didnt take the dead puppies.Normally doesnt matter its dead or not, the mother will keep the dead puppies with her but this one I dont understand.

I tried to neuter this dog to prevent from getting pregnant again(this one is the second time), but it was too late when I brought it to clinic the puppies are already grown inside and I was not aware of it.So its my fault and to correct that I need to take care these puppies and ahsoh as well. No point playing the self blaming game now. right? I need to do whatever needed in order to make sure these puppies are safe and healthy. In future when the doctor says its ok to perform the neutering surgery I will do it this time before its too late

So I cleaned up the cage , put the alive puppies with their mother so that she can feed them but yet I dont see the puppies feeding. . I let the door open so that she can move away if she dont feel comfortable.She do look tired, restless so I dont want to lock her up. The dead puppies? I decided to come over the next day to check on the puppies, wether to bury it or not. Its so dark and I dont have the feelings either to do it at that time. So , after I feed the dogs, I left.

This the point. Thank god I didnt bury the puppies that night because the next day when I came back to temple, I was surprised to see one of the dead puppies is alive and it was feeding milk from its mother. Oh my god...The other one , is confirmed dead, but now the mother puts it beside her. This is the one I dont want to see. It really saddened me to see her embrace the dead little puppy. After a while when the mother left from its puppies to make its own security roundings to protect it's puppies, I sneaked in and took away the dead puppy. I looked at it, so small, dark brown, so still.

I buried it . The first time this dog, ahsoh, delivered, all of its puppies died. It looks premature. Even the doctor gave up. So I was little afraid the same scenario will repeat. Last time they were so small she cant even feed the puppies. Now, its been a week and three of the puppies still surviving and the happy news is all these puppies are feeding milk from their mother normally.Like a normal dog. After a month will bring these puppies to their first vaccination session.

Some of you who are reading this might wonder why I am blogging about an average dog which delivered three puppies and a dead one. Its not like that. Yesterday was the moment I saw these puppies  feeding milk from their mother myself and convinced. Before this the puppies will be sleeping or making the normal sound they make and I tried to observe wether they are really feeding or not, so that I can feed them in a different way or find other solution like using milk bottles or something. I was thinking hard about this. The feelings which creeps into me when I think about what will happen to these puppies  if they dont feed milk like the previous ones and it was frustrating.They will die....
 At first I believed they were feeding because its been days after they are born and its not possible for the puppies to survive without feeding milk from their mother and these puppies are surviving.
Its only yesterday I saw it myself and convinced that they are really feeding now. Feeling good, thats all. Good Day ...

Badminton Taman Bidara

Well, feeling great this morning after a long tiring ,exhausting badminton yesterday at Taman Bidara Multipurpose MPS Hall . The boys are getting better at their badminton skills. I would like to thank all my friends for supporting this newly formed badminton club.

Yes , I said it right. We are going to form a new registered Badminton club in Batu Caves, Gombak. The support were overwhelming from friends and those who love playing badminton. First of all, I have to mention that our frustration in not getting a badminton hall for rental in Batu Caves, Gombak, and even Sentul really frustrated all of us. Believe me we had to stop playing badminton just because we didnt get any hall for booking.for 4 months

There is more expensive options available at private badminton complexes , and it needs early booking too. Anyway we are not interested in playing badminton for RM 24 per hour where our other friends are enjoying playing badminton at government halls for RM 8 per hour.Quite a difference isnt it? For that one reason, we decided to keep looking for a badminton hall to play in Batu Caves area, or at least Gombak. Lucky for us there are some options available even it takes a bit longer to reach than other halls, its pretty much cool actually to get a chance to play in Government badminton hall for better fraction of price, I can say

Today Dewan Serbaguna MPS Taman Bidara is our main playing ground. Dewan Beringin Sri Gombak are also available as long as we stick to the early booking habit which helps all the time to get a rental to play Badminton. Its a nice hall, which have only one court, but its ok for us rather than not playing at all. The number of members are also getting higher and we know that bigger hall which have more than one court might needed in future.Better get prepared for that too, I think. Soon we will be launching an invitation programs to everyone to play in our tournament every week to make yourself busy and stay fit all the time.

Dont let this Hall Issues to affect you all too. See, some of you might be playing with others at other badminton hall, doesn't matter private or government's , at the moment.So people like you also are welcomed to join the tournament and help us make things to keep going. Who knows this might able to turn as one tournament of badminton , being organised weekly to get people going. We might doing that too to other sports activities like futsal too. Anyway,this new club I am talking about still needs a lot of improvement and needly I have to say these guys are really motivated into playing and thats all we need.

Anyone who stumble upon this article, if want to play please do give me call at 017 3854936 or at malleshrau@gmail.com if any one interested in participating in a tournament.Payments range from RM 10 till Rm 20 depends on the number of games you want to play each week.

Drama serial 24

Yesterday I watched the thrilling serial 24 on AXN. I really think this serial is one of the best TV series I have watched all along  in this since years ago. Jack Baeur...my favourite character serial.
The storyline is anticipating and keeps you thirilled and desirely cant wait for the next scene when watching..Imagine waiting for the nest episode neither new season.
Once I remember an actor from Bollywood, Anil Kapoor appeared in one of the 24 episode. Nice..
There is a lot of TV serials I would like to talk about but not now. Thanks to friends and the Internet I am able to watch variety of TV dramas online and it feels great. Thanks Astro AXN anyway for the early exposure with the several best TV serials.
Nice day...
