“We first chose Petopia mainly for their webcam facility but once we had visited the facilities and met the staff we knew that Bruno would be very happy whilst we were away.

Being able to see how he’s doing and seeing him settled with lots of space to play with the other dogs made our holiday more relaxed. We’ll be using Petopia whenever we go away in the future!”

マーカスさん、リチャードさん

1年半の間、我が家の愛犬ヒメリーがお灸で、
お世話になり、本当にありがとうございました!!!

7歳になったばかりのヒメリーが、ある日突然背中を丸めて、
そろそろと歩き出し、不安一杯で、
獣医さんに診ていただいたところ、
やはり、椎間板ヘルニアとの診断でした。
友人に、7歳で椎間板ヘルニアを発症し、
治らずに安楽死した犬の話を聞いていたので、
ショックを受け、ネットでいろいろ調べてみたら、
日本では、お灸で良くなったという例がかなりありました。
しかし、ここはシンガポール。
そんな場所があるのかと探していたら、
セカンドオピニオンを聞きにいった獣医さんでPetopiaを紹介していただきました。

2週間に一度、
30分間、マーカスさんのひざの上で、お灸を受けているのですが、
気持ちよくて、寝てしまうとのこと
それから、1年半。
お蔭様で、一度も痛みが再発することなく、
ソファやベッドに、飛び上がって困るほど、
元気に過ごしています。

また、友人に預けられなかった時に、
数回、ペットホテルとしてお世話になりましたが、
清潔な空間で、シンガポールでは珍しく、
ネットで,犬の様子を確認でき、
大変安心して、預けられました。
ただ、ネットで見られるだけに、
四六時中見てしまうという弊害はありましたが(笑)。。。

Petopiaに、1年半の間、ずっと安心してお世話になったのは、
施設がいいだけだったわけではなく、
何よりも、マーカスさんとリチャードさんが
本当に犬好きで、
また、4歳の娘を可愛がってくださったりと、
お二人のお人柄によるものだと思います。

本当にお世話になりました!
ありがとうございました!!

“Dear Marcus-san and Richard-san,

For a year and a half, my baby Hinmely has been having moxibustion treatment at Petopia. Thank you so much for what you have done for Hinmely!

One day I found that 7-year old Hinmely suddenly started to pace very slowly, with her back rounded. So I became anxious and brought her to a vet. The vet diagnosed the condition as slipped disk. I was absolutely shocked because I remembered a friend’s dog with a slipped disc problem had to be put to sleep as it was found to be incurable. Without further ado, I started looking for a safe treatment method on the internet. I found out that many similar cases got well with a moxibustion treatment.

I am in Singapore when Hinmely contracted this condition and I wondered whether there is such a treatment available here. Hinmely’s attending vet referred me to Petopia. After a diagnosis and thorough discussion, Hinmely’s moxibustion sessions started on Marcus-san’s lap every two weeks and she eventually started sleeping during the treatment as she felt very comfortable.

It has been one and a half year since the treatment started. Hinmely is so healthy now, that she can jump up on a sofa or a bed. Her slipped disc condition has not relapsed again ever since.

When I need to travel, I did not feel comfortable leaving Hinmely with a friend so I entrusted Petopia with taking care of her for a few times. Petopia has a very high standard of hygiene and I can monitor Hinmely anytime via their webcams when I was in Japan. This sort of transparency is very rare in Singapore and I felt reassured with such a system. The webcams had me fixated on the computer screen as I can’t stop looking at Hinmely LOL…

I entrusted Hinmely in Petopia’s care for one and a half year, not only because of the good facilities being set up, but also taking into account Marcus-san’s and Richard-san’s integrity and sound character. Both of you are true blue dog lovers and not forgetting how you love my 4-year old daughter.

Thank you so much! Arigato gozaimashita!!”

Hinmely & Tomoko
