My Baby Shih Tzu's Addiction to KangKong

Fiona my Shih Tzu is turning one year old on May 9, 2010. she now weighs 5 kilos and 3/4 kilograms according to her doctor. Whenever we go and visit the doctor, He always hear the same question from me "Doc, is my shih tzu already obese?"

And he keeps answering me the same question

"No, She is not! I'll let you know when she is"

My shih tzu Fiona eats more than 3 times a day. I know its wrong but whenever she ask for food, I cant help but give her what she wants because we simply cant refuse her charm.

Her Favorite food is Kangkong ( swamp cabbage or water spinach)

Whenever we see her eating Kangkong, We know it makes her happy and satisfied and will later on show great affection to us, as if she's thanking us for giving her, her favorite meal.

When i ask our Vet about her addiction to Kangkong. He told us that we should slow down on giving her so much Fiber because it may irritate her, and we should observe her poop whenever our shih tzu eats Kangkong.

After almost a year of giving our shihtzu dog Kangkong. 

Nothing is wrong with her poop and she still feels happy about her favorite meal.

She loves vegetable, Weird! isn't? but its so true. I also tried to give her dog playmates vegetable but they don't like it. They like meat, all of them. Weird ( Maybe my dog shih tzu is half dog and half goat) :)

The only meat our dog wants is her Treats from Pedigree the Bacon Strips (I wonder why it's not available anymore in SM? I have looked everywhere already including Robinsons and Shangri la, so if anyone knows, where i can purchase Bacon Strips, Please let me know)

Another weird thing about her is SHE LOVES EATING APPLES. Weird? Yeah so WEIRD!

The only thing I'm sure about her is She's not a monkey, because She doesn't eat Banana

Her dog food is Vitality Lamb and Beef, She tried Eukanuba before but whenever she poops after eating Eukanuba she eats her own poop. So weird!

The Reasons Why I Love my Shih Tzu so much and why I recommend you to get one...

The Reasons Why I Love my Shih Tzu so much and why I recommend you to get one...

I have never seen a dog so charming and loving like the one that I have. She just continues to give us joy every single day!


1. She's like a barbie :) I bathe her, blower and brushes her hair and experiment on different hairstyles. She is the best toy i have ever had. You get to decide her looks. She can be bald or a darling shih tzu with a crown or pins on her hair.

2. She's very loyal. She knows who her master is

3. Unlike other dogs, She doesn't bark. Well, actually she does,after all she is still a dog so yes! she still barks, but only if shes afraid, or feels jealous haha :)) She's like a baby.

4. She's a great company. She just walks where you walk. My shih tzu is very very smart. She goes with us everywhere without a leash, And most of the time we actually here people saying things like "Her dog is so amazing, unbelievable"

5. A Shih tzu is a lot better than a baby. We hear that a lot! especially when we walk around in malls and parks like Tiendesitas,  A mother would say to her children "Look at her shih tzu dog she's more behave than you"

6. She's small and not big. She is just right for a pet. Not that small that u can carry her with just one hand. She's just right to give u a hug when you need one. Not that big that people can get scared, She is just right to fit in my bag so i can bring her wherever i want to go.

7. Shih Tzu dogs are very intelligent. They easily learned the basics like following the commands "up" "down" "sit" "shake hands" "fetch" "quiet" "eat"

8. She's not expensive. We bought her for the price of P10,000 and she eats whatever i eat.

She is the best dog you can ever have...
