One Small Month; One Giant Growth Spurt...

Cookie has undergone an amazing physical change in the month that she's been with us...


From the little bundle of fur that we first laid eyes on a few weeks back, she's stretched and grown in all directions... and now beginning to suggest what she'll look like when she reaches adulthood.


But judging from the size of her paws, she still has a fair bit of growing left in her! Fortunately although her growth is phenomenal, Cookie herself is gradually calming down (although she still has her occasional moments of madness), so the cats are beginning to find her a little more approachable - which is good news for everyone...

MIXED-BREEDS VS. PURE-BREEDS

You know, apart from some ancient working breeds that have been around for ages to help humans tend livestock, guard homes, etc - most of today's so-called "pure breeds" are relatively recent creations - and purely for the sake of fashion...

And so, although mixed breed dogs like Cookie still receive a bad press among the "doggie fashionistas", the plain and simple biological truth is that Cookie and her kind are far more healthy and intelligent than their show-stopping cousins...

This video tells the tale perfectly:

FIRST DAYS OF FREEDOM...

Introducing Cookie - on the day she and her companion were taken from the streets of Singapore and impounded...


With an inevitable death sentence hanging over their heads, both puppies were rescued by Singapore-based dog rescue charity, Exclusively Mongrels Ltd. - giving them second chance at life and the possibilities of being adopted to a family of their own.

Cookie was just two months old when she was rescued - but she's already doing a fine impression of a bear cub! Quiet, curious and unusually laid-back, her rescuers were confident that she would find a home. In fact it took less than a week to find a potential adopter, and less than a minute for those adopters to fall in love with her...

And so begins the Chronicles of Cookie. There's a lot for this puppy to learn; her new home is also occupied by four world-weary cats and middle-aged Chihuahua-cross - so she'll have to find her place in the pack and learn the curious ways of her new human parents...

For the moment though, the world is big and waiting to be discovered!
