Puppy awwh so cute..urrgghh a lot of work!

I love dogs and I am so in love with them when they were a puppy. Those little tails, little chubby body, their eyes..awwhh..so cute!

What I do not like is to train them..urrghh..some puppies are learning fast and some are taking such a long time to train them.

I would recommend Cesar Millan from "The Dog Whisperer" in National Geographic Channel.

You should watch his show to understand better, but I love his methods for dog,which is exercise,discipline and affection. He recommend to take a dog for a walk everyday and then he taught me not to let the dog walk in front of me (because that would make them a leader and not you as the owner), he taught me to have short lease and put it on the dog's neck high and correct them right away when they do something wrong because their brain learned not to do it again, he taught me to give affection to them after discipline.

Cesar also taught me in his show that if you just adopted a pet, take him out for a walk before you enter the house. That way the dog learned his neighborhood. Then take the dog to his "bathroom" LOL. Before we enter the house, show the dog where he should do his "business".

Cesar also taught me about "The Power of The Pack," basically it means dog is a social creature. They need their kind to play with, interact, etc. But, the interesting fact is that dog can teach other dog how to behave. Some dogs become better or become worst after hanging out with other dogs LOL.

Cesar also has an important point of "human/handler's energy." He always reminds the viewer to be a calm and assertive pack leader or handler. If you are confused and fear and not showing any leadership toward your dog, they became the pack leader and they will make you go nuts.

I have one dog named Luke, we named him after we watched "Cool Hand Luke" LOL. I tried everything Cesar taught me from the time we adopted him from PETCO in Jamacha, San Diego. He is a Terrier mix, we adopted him when he was 3 months old.

Luke is a great,obedient,fun,playful and mellow dog. He is very smart, I taught him to do tricks only ONE time....yes..one time and he got it right away. He loves to run and chasing other dogs. He never bite other dogs. He alerts us if there is a stranger coming to our hallways. He eats whatever we give him. He chewed some of our stuff when he first got to our house, but after ONE "No" he never do that anymore. He always follows us wherever we go, sit on our feet and lick us ..eww..!!

Dog is a man best friend..hmm..that is kinda true. I do know that bad dog doesn't exist, only bad owner or bad people who is taking advantage of the dogs by making them a dog fighter, a mean dog, or neglect them by not feeding them or give them the disciplines they need.

God gave dominion for human to have power over the earth,including to animals. It is up to us to train them, love and care for these creatures. I HATE people who eats dog, who kill dog just for fun, who made them a fighter to earn money, who neglect them, who is taking advantage of their loyalty and being cruel to them.

I know that a lot of people needs help as well and not just animals. But, if you are not ready to be a pet owner, then do not adopt one yet. If you don't know how to taking care of some animals then don't adopt them. There are other people who wants to adopt them and provide for them.

Please STOP ANIMAL CRUELTY and not just for dogs, but also for all animals out there. They have blood and flesh, they can feel pain. Please don't hurt them!

Dreams

There are some nights when I have the same dreams over and over again and it scares me. There are some special nights, when I saw something in my dreams and it happened in real life, most of them are tragedy. There are some night, when I had a dream about people I love dearly and I just wanna go back to sleep and dream about it again.


There are times in my life when I wanna be a doctor. Then, it changed to be a politician. Then, it changed to be an actress. Then, it changed to be a president.

There are times in my life when I want to marry Bon Jovi, and then it changed to Tom Cruise, then it changed to Brad Pitt. (What the heck?!?!)


There are times when I want to go to a specific school and it came true. I dream to go to a specific country and it happened. I dream to marry a specific man and it came true. Yippeee..

But, there are times when I know I can do it and turns out I couldn't. There are times when I tried so hard and I failed. There are times when I work so hard for it and I did not get it. There are times when I set my goals and I did not make it on time.

Have you ever lost your dreams? I am not talking about dreams when you were sleeping, or day dreaming about become a Princess or a Rock Star's wife. I am talking about something that you want to gain, your desire, your goal, your inspiration, your dream.

I have always been a goal oriented person since I was a kid. If I set my mind into it, I will do it and when I do it, I would do it perfect. It is in my nature to do well, pay attention to the details and make it work.

What happened to you when your dreams turns into nightmares? What happened when your sweet hope turns sour? What happened when you lost your faith?


Somehow, I know that there is a God. But the thought of "how could He let this happened to me?" is constantly inside my head. I am not blaming God completely for everything that goes wrong in this world and my life in this case. I guess, it is in my human nature to play the blame game, because it is hard to blame ourselves when we know we tried the best we could. Maybe it was not our faults, maybe it is the world against us, or maybe the world is too busy to even pay attention to us?

Failure is not an option! Who the heck wants to fail? nobody. Failure has never been an option, failure is the result that we we don't like to get but yet it showed up a lot in our lifetime.

Failure doesn't mean the end of it, even though it is for some of us. Failure means we need to keep fighting. Failure means we need to look deeper and find what we did wrong and correct it the next time. Failure means we need to look to another option to make it work. Failure means try again.

But, sometimes it is too hard to even think of it. Sometimes we give up on us. We give in to our weaknesses.

I hate when people calls me "hopeless" because it sounds so pathetic. Hopeless makes me feel like as if I don't believe in God, and I do. It bothers me that it bothers me. Even though so many times I do feel hopeless. Not because I don't believe in God anymore, but because I am not sure I can do it anymore. I don't know how God operates anymore. Some people tried so hard and receive less and some people don't even work and make it more. I am talking about money. And the worst part is that the "not working" people doesn't ever try to earn it, they just get it so easily, while we have to earn it so hard. It is just unfair.

I gave up dream a couple of years ago when I saw all my dreams falls apart and crushed into pieces. I even think I am depressed LOL. But, when I look back and thinking what did I do wrong, I could not see anything wrong. I mean, I do made mistakes, but I moved on.

When everything falls apart, it won't be pretty. But we could still build something new. Picking up the pieces is not a fun thing to do, but building something new is a fun thing to do, well at least for me.


Sometimes life throws a lot of things all at once and we have to choose between a dream or a reality. We often chose a dream over a reality and at the end, we ended up hurting ourselves or crushed. Because sometimes dreams are made to remain dreams, when you wake up, you have to get up and live your real life. But, when we chose dream and it is not working out in our real life, maybe we should stop dreaming about it and start living it.

When we dream about something, it is up to us to make it a reality or nightmares. I have a lot of dreams but, many times, I don't have the tools to make it work. I have a lot of dreams but so many times I let myself down because I don't have the confidence I need to make it work. I have a lot of dreams that I gained, I lost some, I crushed some, and some is not even worth to dream about.

Your dream will remain a dream if you do nothing about it and your dream will remain a nightmares if you keep dreaming the same thing over and over again.Your dream will be a reality if you set your mind and work toward it. Your dream is not a failure, even when your result says so. Your dream is yours, failure can't take it away from you, unless you let them go.
