Paw Tales

Sylvie is the most beautiful and loving dog I have ever come across over the years - she is full of energy, mischief maker and the most adored and loved member of the family at Friendicoes SECA. Anyone who sees her today will never believe the torture and pain she had to endure few years back. Almost five years back, Sylvie was a part of a family living in Vasant Vihar and she had everything any…

It’s always good to spend time with our cuddly canines and believe me, when they accompany us on a trip, the fun increases manifold. Bow! I was one of a few lucky ones, who had such great fun. Me and my pet Bruno simply went ballistic on our two-day camping at the outskirts of Mumbai. Our morning started with swimming sessions, while I enjoyed it with other pooches; Bruno found some gorgeous…

My best friends are my two pooches - Dolly and Gold. Dolly is very playful and naughty while Gold – a big daddy, is simply adorable and loves to take bath. I take both of them out for a walk. They are my life and God’s fantastic gift to me. All three of us are blissful together. I am really fond of dogs and have been taking care of my five stray dogs who live near my house. I love them all and…

Bujoe is a sweet little darling, who entered my life in January 2004. He was hardly a month old. Faced a tragedy and Bujoe’s presence gave me strength to carry on. He expresses all his feelings through his eyes. Bujoe loves to play a lot. He is the typical Lab who wants something in his mouth. It can be anything, for instance, broom, socks, coconut, ball or even a simple stick. He has a typical…

I still remember the day my little black bundle of love and joy entered my life. Nawab was a four months old Labrador pup, and the moment I visited him for the first time, he came running to me wagging his tail. At that moment, I knew I was in love and that I had to take him home with me that very moment. Nawab was probably not taken care of at his first home and had fleas, dandruff and itchy skin…

Relationship with Maggie has been more or less pre-destined. I still remember one fine day, when my mother received a phone call from her sister that a female pup is ready to be adopted. She inquired if my mother was interested in adopting her. My mother at first was reluctant but with me and my brother’s persuasion, she agreed. I drove eight miles to see her. She was sooo…naughty. I took her in…

Happiness doesn’t always come wrapped up in ornate gift packages adorned with satin ribbons. It could just sneak into our lives in the most unexpected ways. Our bundle of joy came trotting into our world on no less than four feet! It was on his eleventh birthday that my brother decided to bring home a beautiful black female Labrador pup. Being the youngest in the family and tired of being labelled…

I always wanted to have a pet dog. But did not want to take the responsibility. We shifted to Gurgaon and we had two dogs on our floor – one Labrador and one Russian Poodle. The first look of the Labrador frightened me, but to my surprise, he was very friendly. We started calling him home, talking to him, playing with him, etc. Someone rightly said, ‘dog is a child who never grows up’. My…

Please send in your pet's stories at info@dogsandpups.net to get published. Priya was feeling bereft since her black Labrador Waldo died on Holi. After a long and painful battle with tumours and organ failure for two years, Waldo succumbed to kidney failure. The festival of colours turned into a day of mourning for Priya. The next day, Priya left home on a week-long official trip. It helped her…

“St Bernard!” I screamed with glee, when Vivek asked me which breed I would like to bring home. It was the most evident choice. Ever since my ninth grade, ever since I had first laid eyes upon that adorable St Bernard in Beethoven, I had wanted to bring home a St Bernard. “Are you sure?” he asked me skeptically. Was I Sure? Of course I was sure! It was like a dream come true for me. Behind every…

I share my life with two German Shepherds – Tippu and Ruby. They are the most adorable dogs in the world, especially Ruby! She is Tippu’s mom and is five years old while Tippu is a young 3-year-old dog. Ruby stays at our farm while Tippu stays at my house like a king. Tippu is a fun loving, energetic and sometimes a very lazy dog while Ruby is just the opposite. Ruby loves water and whenever I…

I was never fond of dogs (till the day Allan came into our life), it’s not that I hated them but I was really afraid of them, though there was no reason behind that. On the other hand, my hubby loved them a lot. One day he convinced me (somehow) to go for a dog show. While we were walking out, we saw a person selling cream Labrador puppies and immediately decided to make him a part of our family;…

Please send in your pet's stories at info@dogsandpups.net to get published. Golla, my Pomeranian is a happy-go-lucky dog. He is always full of mischief, running away with my slippers and eating up anything that’s within his reach, starting from chairs to tables, to cushions and even remote controls (once I found the ‘channel changing’ key missing from our TV remote). Otherwise, he disturbs the…

Tyson is our snobbish four-year-old male Pug, who simply loves water. Taking bath is like being on cloud nine for him! After bath, he gets mad… runs around the whole house and plays with his toy. He is fun-loving, cute, sweet, charming and naughty… and yes, he is smart too. Even though he loves my mom more than me, he is still my choco-pie!!

My best  friend is Dot, my sweet Pug. He is very lazy but he loves me a lot and plays with me on holidays. I take him out for a walk. He is the most adorable pup in the world. We both are happy to have each other. We are now bringing home a new friend for Dot and planning to call her Boss! She’s also a Pug like Dot and we hope he will love his new company. My aunt also has a dog named…

My mom was always fond of pets but she was reluctant to have a pet because of us. Stella, our first pet, came to us by chance. It so happened that we went to a family friend and their Golden retriever Lara had four pups. The pups stole my mom’s heart and Stella became a part of our family. But we did not stop at one. Today, we are blessed with six beautiful dogs. I really thank God for making such…

I have been married for two years and both of us were struggling to balance our careers and social life, leaving us with hardly any time to catch a breath. Our life found a whole new meaning when we mutually decided to get home our first pup – a Golden Retriever named Zack. Suddenly we found ourselves spending a lot more time together and almost miraculously found more time in life. A month later,…

Presenting ‘Sasha’ an outstanding and awesome cocker spaniel. In one word to describe…………….she is a ‘Beauty’. In two words to describe …………...she is ‘Most Adorable’. In three words to describe,…………she is ‘Admired By All’. And in one sentence to describe…..‘No words can do justice to our little princess’. I express our hearty thanks to our family and friends for entrusting her with me.

Tuffy is my love – my pooch who is very smart and intelligent. He loves food and gobbles whatever we give him with love. He is very alert and fetches us the newspaper in the morning. What’s amazing is that he has learnt it on his own. Tuffy keeps surprising us by learning new tricks and I hope by the time this pawtail gets published, he must have learnt a new one!

Ginger is my adorable four-legged friend and his love and compassion for his fellow beings cannot be put in words. I still recall a particular incident when Ginger saved a little pup from stray dogs. It so happened that Ginger and I were taking our routine walk one day when we heard the stray dogs growling. Ginger suddenly got very alert which was unlike him because normally he would simply ignore…
