Does anyone have any tips on how to stop puppies from digging holes in the yard? I have 2 Shih Tzus almost 9 months old and I have discovered they are digging holes in the backyard and eating the grass. Thanks in advance for the advice. Zan

I have 2 Shih Tzus 1) When did your dog go up and down stairs? They both went upstairs at about 3 months. One was afraid to go down until around 5 months, the other 4 months. We tricked the one that was scared. We would leave him upstairs and then act like we were having so much fun...

Yea, that's what I was thinking....too much salt. Thanks for the yogurt suggestion. The Kongs are great for keeping your dog occupied. I also just read about a recipe where you crush up the Kong treats, add the paste or Hounds sauce.....put it in the Kong and freeze. That way you are using...

Does anyone out there use the Kongs? If so, do you stuff them? I have been pluggin the little hole on top with peanut butter, then filling the Kong with water and bouillion (chicken or beef). Then I plug the big hole with peanut butter and freeze. My puppies love them!!! However, lately I...

Okay, I couldn't find a thread for this so here goes....Mordy you seem to be the authority? Has anyone tried Nutrident dental chews? Similar to Greenies but by Nylabone. Plus, I heard Greenies kill, but my vet recommended Nylabone. My puppies love it, my only concern: they only chew it for...

I would have to agree to get the blood work done. My puppies had bloodwork done before their neutering and the 1st time, the vet found one of their red blood cell counts was low and my puppy wouldn't not have been able to clot enough to counter bleeding so we had to wait a few months. I am...

OKay, now I need to know how to post a ticker? Thanks. Zan

How about the name Paddington....he looks like Paddington Bear.

I get my dogs professionally groomed at Petsmart every 6 weeks. In between, I brush them weekly and if they seem really dirty, I use this no water needed grooming product (Minute Groom) and Groomax finishing spray. This seems to do the trick. My groomer says I take really good care of their...

I want to post pics of my boys....how do I do it? Thanks. Everyone's puppies are soooo cute, it makes me want to get more!

Yeah, thanks for the advice. I have basically tried everything.....it is VERY hard to tire these puppies out. I think one of the things with the bitter apple stuff is you have to apply it so often and when I am gone during the day it just wears off. I guess I will just have to keep trying and...

I agree with the 2 crates but for different reasons. I don't think you should totally isolate your 2 pups from each other. I have 2 shih tzus...brothers gotten together at 2 months old. They stayed in the same crate until around 6 months old they got too big and needed separate crates...

Thanks for the reply. However, they are not just put in the backyard. They go out the doggy door whenever they want. I suspect they are eating the fence during the day when we are gone or at night when we are asleep. Otherwise, they are with me at all times. I don't want them to not have...

Me Too! I have had a lot of the same problems that you are experiencing. My puppies are littermates and are now 8 months old. We took them to obdience training class and that has helped tremendously. They seem to have grown out of inhaling their food, but I think a big part of it was they...
