I have a 5 month old shih tzu that did not like to be brushed at all. I have to brush him every day with his fur. What I did was everytime he gets brushed or combed I take cheese pieces (which this is the only time he gets it.) I hold them in my hand like I am doing the leave it command he can smell...

I just took my 4 month old shih tzu to the dog park for the first time today. I was worried about how he would react to other dogs as he really does not have much exposure to them. I was also worried because all the dogs there where much bigger than him. It went very, very well in fact his new best ...

Desiree I took that class on pet first aid as well and a few others from the red cross out of all the red cross classes this is the only one I have ever had to use. I saved a cat that had been hit by a car on my way home from work.

You can check with your better business bureau if you have one, also when you are at the dog park ask other dog owners.

it is best to use a harness on short faced dogs like pugs, shih tzus according to my vet. They usally have delicate trachias which can be damaged if they are pulled hard by a collar and leash combo.

if you are worried about a begael because they bark and howl, then do not get a puggle. My son and neice each have one and they are "talkers" Both Parker and tucker howl/bark if they see people they love, they will sing for food and some of the sounds they make are priceless.

I love Mel Brooks Movies I love that movie. I love the scene with blinkin the blind guy has the guard and gets into a fight with the post

I had an older dog that had bladder issues so I tried them they are horrible!!! I used one and threw out the rest the poor little guy had the urine all over him and he had to have a bath to get it off his fur.

try the Ouch method, My puppy Cooper is only 14 weeks old and his very nippy when he gets excited. When he nips me anywhere I say ouch in a loud voice and stop playing with him and turn my back to him for a few minutes, then resume what ever it was we were doing or I will give him a suitable chew to...

Is the breeder's facility clean and can you visit the facility at any time without notice? Are both parents available for you to see? if not will the breeder allow you to contact the missing parents owner? in my case coopers father was not there but she called his owner, so I could meet him. She als...

Thanks everyone!!!
it is great to meet everyone, I am trying to figure out how to use coopers picture for my avatar but I can add any thing to my album or upload the picture I want to use. [album][/album]

In long-haired breeds like shih-tzu's, foot fur can also be a problem as it can wrap around the toes/claws and be very painful and even obstruct circulation. I always trim it down, but then my dogs are very fuzzy shih-tzu's yeah I have hard wood floors poor cooper just slides everywhere when he is ...

You can purchase the potty patch here in the US at places like petco and bed bath and beyond. It has plastic grass in it. If I were the one girl with out any dogs I would have kicked them all out!! they were just plain rude and did not deserve to own any type of animal at all :x I did like how Victo...
