Day 14: My Shih Tzu Update

19th February 2010

I feel so happy at this very hour that I immediately created this post. Do you want to know why?

After a long day of work, I finally decided to go to my room. I fixed my things and carried Sphinx to my room. I gave him food because he ate very little the whole afternoon. I also gave him his Pet Antioxidant. Then, he pooped. Although I already finished grooming him a while ago, I groomed his back again to remove the residue of his poo. And as usual, I put diaper on him. After a few minutes, when we are ready to go to bed, he suprisingly stand up on his own and walk a few steps heading to where he used to pee in case he cannot hold it anymore.

The moment I saw him stand up and walk made me very happy. A few crawling more right after he did it, I saw him stand and walk again without my help. Although he can only make a few steps right now, I am still very happy to know that he is on his way to recovery.

This day, he was able to stand and walk twice. The pet antioxidant is really a good supplement for him. My tired mind and body due to a very busy day have been washed away. I know that I will sleep with a smile on my face tonight. And I also know that tomorrow will be a new day for us. I cannot wait for Sphinx to surprise me again.
