No pets allowed
I was nine years old when my brother brought home a male puppy. My brother and I begged our parents until they let us keep him. I think we gave him the name “Virgo”. We took turns in giving him a bath. We were so diligent in keeping him healthy. We didn’t know anything about pet supplements but we gave him milk everyday. That puppy grew up to be a healthy dog but he suddenly became ill. His health deteriorated until he could not even stand. In the last few days of his life, he just spent lying under the tables and chairs at home.
One night, I sat on a chair with Virgo lying under it. After a few minutes of sitting on that chair, he bit my ankle! Maybe I hit him somewhere. Because he was dying at that time, and died two days after he bit me, I had to take anti-rabies shots. It was not just one, but eight shots around my navel! Because of that incident, I could endure holding a puppy, but I could never get near a full-grown dog, even if it’s just a chihuahua.

Glad to know that. I thought I’m the only one who’s afraid of dogs.

Sorry to hear about your pet. We have two dogs. I don’t know what we’d do if even one passed away. We’d be sad cause they are family

He was such a good boy. We had no idea where he got that disease.

Oh.. is Virgo supposed to be a girl’s name? I couldn’t remember where my brother and I got that…
