In my travels around South East Asia I usually try to find and visit a veterinary practice. On my way to the bank ATM on the second day I came across without looking for it the Rebadulla Animal Hospital and off course I just had to go inside. It was difficult to see how the premises could qualify in any way to be called “hospital.” Dr Ellen Aboo (a Filipino qualified vet) was sitting in reception, which was also the consulting room, and she made me feel very welcome and very humble. I will never again grumble about poor facilities or lack of equipment. She said she was very happy in her job despite having no Xray machine, no gaseous anaesthetic and a microscope that was so inadequate she seldom used it.
The main problems in the island dogs according to Ellen were Rabies, Ehrlichia, Distemper and Parvo (not necessarily in that order) with which she coped with great good humour. She preferred to work in Boracay despite the poor facilities than in any of the other five clinics spread throughout the Philippines including Manila that were owned by her veterinarian boss.
Rabies vaccination (Rabisin) is done every year for 300 Pesos (£3) with the full range of vaccination including rabies is 800 pesos (£8). She spays a bitch using an ACP and atropine as a premedication and then Zoletil, which is a combination of ketamine and diazepam derivatives given intramuscularly and charges between 3,000 pesos and 5,500 pesos depending on size. She is not only a small animal vet but attends the few farm animals on the island and was just leaving the premises to AI sows with semen collected from one of two boars at an AI centre. She gasped when I told her I had previously looked after an AI centre in the UK with more than 60 boars at stud.

Dogs are susceptible to various intestinal parasites (read: bulate sa tyan...yak...). In the Philippines, the more common parasites are hookworms, ascarids (roundworms), whipworms, and tapeworms. These cause problems and diseases in dogs, and some affect humans also (better have your stools checked...bWawHAWHAWha!!!)

DURING a visit to Bangkok last November, I read about a new book written by King Bhumibol Adulyadej with the self-explanatory title: "Biography of a Pet Dog." Off I went to the bookstores, but they had sold out all of 100,000 copies.
Last month on another visit to Bangkok, I finally got a copy of the book and was amazed to find out it had been reprinted nine times between November 2002 and January 2003, for a total print run of 650,000 copies.
I'm sure the king's popularity contributed to the book's sale. But possibly another reason for the brisk sales was the Thais' general fondness for dogs. With rising income and a growing middle class, there's status attached as well to having dogs, preferably purebred ones.
And that's what makes the king's book so amazing. The book focuses on Tongdaeng, clearly the favorite among the king's many dogs. The book has numerous photographs of a light brown dog -- thus the name Tongdaeng, which means "copper" in Thai -- with features that show she's a mixture of many different breeds.

I graduated in the summer of 1979 because I neglected Statistics in favor of Clinics. But six days after my final exams, I was invited to teach at the Gregorio Araneta University Foundation, Institute of Veterinary Medicine. Jun Micu came over extending the invitation of the dean, Dr. Francisca A. Ching. Five classmates were already members of the faculty there: Jun, Alice Cambay, Flor Gonzales, Mildred Araniador and Cynthia Bernabe. I handled Microbiology and Virology laboratory classes. In 1981, due to some unpleasant turn of events in the Institute, Jun and Flor left for CLSU. Cynthia left earlier before this and Alice left later leaving behind Mildred and me.

People come and go.. I’ve learned to love my students and when I know that they’ve learned from me at the end of the day, it really puts a smile on my face. I hope that one day, one of them would be able pass their board exams because what I taught this year helped them.. But what I really want are the values that shaped them at being a student here at the college.. Teachers inculcate values without them knowing it and I hope they learned values from me as I also learned from them..

Horse-drawn carriages are popular among tourists who want a picturesque and romantic way to visit Central Park. They can be found all year round lined up along Central Park South between 5th and 6th Avenues. Considered a New York City classic, these carriages have been featured in numerous movies. Animal rights activists however have been urging legislators to ban these carriages because they say horses are treated inhumanely.
