QUOTE(ihawk98 @ Jul 20 2008, 05:06 PM) when i got there in the afternoon, Moonie was being taken care of by the groomer inside so i could not talk to your dog.... but she looked like she was enjoying the groomer's attention.... this is Sparky after the grooming yesterday and then we went for a walk in the park. She enjoying the groomer attention? Luckily didnt pee on the groomer is considered good already. Sparky looks so muscular. My sister and gf like him a lot!! My gf said that is the nicest Westie she has seen.

thanks for the compliments about Sparky. if you recall, he is originally from a thai breeder. if you look at his lineage, there are a couple of european champions in his ancestry. This post has been edited by ihawk98: Jul 20 2008, 08:28 PM

Oh yea, he's from Thai. Seriously, among all the westies, I think Sparky build is just different. Wait till you see Casper. Moonie on the other hand is actually very small size. Just realized that after we groomed her.

Casper and Moonie also different size but weigh about the same. I havent got them on to a weighing scale lately cause they'll just freak out with the sound of springs and etc. My dogs need exercise!! Hahaha... Casper a lot of meat behind the neck, getting fat!! QUOTE(larryho @ Jul 22 2008, 09:08 PM) wah...smaller size but heavier.

I guess bring them out for exercise will surely make their body structure nicer...like it will look more masculine and powerfull. "Small White Lions"..tats what they should look...but really very hard to make them look like tat lar....groom them aso difficult adi. Muz b so committed to make them look and shape well.

Well, my friend called me up about 4 new westie being brought to Pets De Park at Pet Safari.
The owner of Pets De Park and my friend are business partners. In the mean time, my friend is sorta like a family friend, close.
We went to Pets De Park to look at the puppies and my gf suddenly agreed to buy the most expensive one after given a 500 ringgit discount just within 10 minutes while we were there.
The ironic part was, we were just debating how many dogs are we going to keep in the future as we have Casper + Moonie + Shadow (gf's Jap Spitz) now. Within 10 minutes, she added another into the list.
His name is Marquis (pronounced as Mar-kee but Mar-kis if French). Name given by gf also. When we bought him, we didnt have a name for it. We didnt have a cage for it and he still live in a box now. We didnt even discussed or talked to the ppl in our house about it.
You can see him in my Dogster profile at my signature down below.

May just breed Marquis + Moonie instead. How come you so fast going back to grooming? It will cost a bomb!! I am sending Marquis to his second vaccination.

Well...anyway, its true that we better not breed our westies which has skin problems where it may cause its puppies to suffer aso in the future. Westies skin disease are through genetic problem aso. Anyway, juz 10mins and ur gf can decide to get another 1....damn geng. How much was the price for your new pup? It will be another headache for you, for almost 1year+ man before it gets matured.

Well, I know I'll miss them a lot if I am away. You can see Marquis photos on the Pets Picture v3 or my signature > my Dogster. I didnt decide to get him, I was contemplating and my gf just went ahead and bought him. I was shocked too. Shocked so bad that I was coughing and vomitting over it. Not overreacting but it happens sometimes when I get too excited. The price is 3k, discount 500. I dont mind watching it grow up. For years I've been saying this, now I just want to move to my new place which is still under renovation works.

So, for Casper, we usually DIY. For Moonie, we send her to groomer because girl ma, need to be prettier!
