Our guard dog Sara-sara, my first dog which doesn't "recognize" me

The month January didn't even end and you already managed to achieve the first thing on your list! A new phone with a great camera how cool is that?

You can still bond with Sara-Sara it's never to late and you are not complete strangers. Can be it's also a part of her character she is easily afraid if approached. It wouldn't surprise me if animals also have autism or like to have their peace. A dog actually never sleeps and is always on guard. Perhaps she also has pain somewhere. I noticed if it comes to most animals you always are kind of late figuring it out. It was the same with the cat here/ It's a miracle he's still alive although he doesn't eat much he left the house this morning and I had to search him in my bathrobe and call the dachshund to find him. Luckily he did Of course, the cat escaped as I tried to grab him so I had to give food to two dogs which made the cat curious enough to have closer look.

I keep my fingers crossed there won't be much rain and the roof will can be fixed this year. I gues the wall will be done as well or?

Funerals for pets we have too but I never did it. We even have some graveyards for animals and I can tell you it's very expensive. Usually you have two options if it comes to your pet: you leave it with the vet and he takes care of it (as I was a child they said the glue used at kindergarten and primary school was mad out of the bones of dogs, the rest? Dogfood, test material?). The vet does get paid by whomever takes them. The other option is you bury your dog/cat/rabbit or a crematorium is an option. They give you the ashes which you can put in a jar or they make a necklace or whatever with a part of the asses. It's not allowed to bury the dog or pet in your garden (we do it anyway since it's my place. As I once moved I took the dead cat along and buried him in the next garden. It was kind of recently buried and wrappen in a cloth. I didn't like the idea to leave him behind and new people digging in the ground and finding him.

If attached to an animal it's good to say goodbye in a way. I once had a hamster whose eye was suddenly dried out. It was a great one and always waited for me as I came out of school. So one day as I arrived I smeld something strange. It waite straight up holding the wires and as I lifted it I saw the eye and he collapse. I wanted my dad to bury him which he finally did in the garden. For sure I put some flowers on his grave but it was just me and my father not the entire family and we also didn't have a speech or some ceremony. Saying goodbye to a beloved one, no matter a person or an animal is important for the process of mourning. At leas that is what I believe especially if death arrives unexpectedly. If not it's good to enjoy the company daily and not wait till it's too late. Wll at least that's what I believe.

It is big business as long as there are still people who can afford it. Look here

Yes thank God that I have a new awesome phone, it is fast and does produce good photos and what really made me decide to buy it is that my old smartphone can't load the photos of the food app delivery that I sometimes use plus it tales a while when I update the apps because of the old processor. Basically the old phone was getting sluggish but it still works but I needed a better one with speedier process and camera too.

If God wills it I will have to buy another new laptop with a better display and overall performance although my laptop is capable, the screen has black lines already at the top and bottom. Repairing it will be costly because the screen is a touch screen and made of glass. I actually have the money in the form of crypto in an exchange but I am still trading it so I can accumulate more cash.

As for this house i am still waiting for BTC to double in value so that I can sell some and have a new house built as soon as possible for me and my aging parents. Both the flooring and the corrugated roof of this house needs to be changed. The floor was high when it was still new but now is one of the few houses around here in my neighborhood with the lowest floor level. We actually have one of the oldest standing house here as every hose in my neighborhood now are relatively newer and the passing of time made it look like the old house that I visit when I was still a kid our which also had a flooring lower than the surrounding ground level, now it happened to our house especially after the concrete road in front of our house got raised.

Thankfully when we get flooded the water would start to recede as soon as the rain would stop, but while the water is inside the house, I am like a stranded man on an island which is my bed. At least now I am mobile enough to walk without much problem compared before.

Anyway, it is only common for people to take their pets like toy dogs and other expensive breeds to the veterinarian here but for common guard dogs they are not mostly given some attention as far as visiting the vet which is why they will just die when they get sick. Then dead dogs or even pets are just buried at the property of the owner but I am not sure how pet owners of expensive dog breeds deal with their departed lived pets, maybe they bury them too in their backyards.

I am a sensitive person emotionally so I am just avoiding things that I will miss as when they are not around anymore particularly own a pet and even befriending my fellow co-patients at the dialysis clinic because it is a common occurrence that patients there leave this world faster than you can say "fast", I mean even if they live for some years I will still see them depart. So to avoid a feeling of loss, I would always let myself unattached to them even to my nurses which most of the time comes and then goes to work abroad. Well, its just me, because I do not like the feeling of loss of a lovedone nor I wanted to experience one in my lifetime.

Thank you for your time and care Miss @wakeupkitty 😀👍

Have a great week now.
