My appartment building checks their fire alarm every so often. My appartment is so small that it isnt hard to find Briar. When they were checking the alarms a week or so ago, I had opened the door to see his reaction to the alarm. Briar, the little devil, rushes out the door but then half way...

Yeah. He loves my computer chair and likes being in it, although he isnt big enough to get up there on his own yet. ^^ He really tries though. Its about that time then I guess.. He is near 5 months.

Theres quite a few dogs in my area. And several in my building as well. In my building there is Charcoal, a shih tzu mix, Butters who is a pretty little gold/cocker mix, Ozzy who is a chow pit mix and a big sweat heart.. and a few others. A chi mix who is quite mean snaps at every thing...

Briar loves his toys, his favorite is his bear. Although for some reason he doesnt like its tail. He gnaws and gnaws at it, now its black while the rest is white. Not the best of pics, but oh well. Felt like sharing. ^^ He looks rather dirty in these hence the "scruffyness". He just...

Thank you! ^^

lol. Of course he is! He is the cutest puppy there is! ^^ Briar has never tried chewing on my doll. He has licked it a few times, I dont think he likes the taste of resin all that much, and he has plenty of his own toys to chew on so Im not worried about him chewing on mine. Although I...

Thanks ^^ He is such a sweety when he isnt bouncing off the walls. XD

Just figured I should show off my good little boy Briar. He was good enough to let me take three pictures of him about fifteen minutes ago. But here is one of him and my doll.

Thank you for the advice. ^^ I am well ahead of you on starting a program with him. He already has to sit before he gets anything. My little Briar already knows how to sit, shake and lay down. He is a very smart puppy, and learns fast but he still has his onry-ness. As to the leashing, I...

Iv seen dogs grieve before. Its a sad thing. They lay around, wont eat, dont want to play. They mope around like a human who is grieving will mope. They will look like they are crying, its so sad. The only thing to do is be there and help them through it, like helping a human through it...

Thanks for the advice. I dont mind the digging. Its an energetic outlet, and he doesnt do it all the time, mostly when he is out side with his "friends" he will dig just to antagonize Charcoal to play with him. I doubt the squirt bottle would work, he likes water. I will try the crate when...

Sociallizing is, I find, the best way to deal with harsh play bitting. She will learn quickly from other dogs that her bitting is too hard. My puppy Briar had the same trouble, and he still bites hard sometimes but he is doing better especially after playing with his buddy Charcoal who doesnt...

My puppy Briar used to cry and whine when I put him in his crate at night or when I left for an hour or so. I found that leaving him in there with the crate covered helped, as well as leaving a radio on or the tv so he didnt feel so alone. He did settle down after being ignored also. You may...

Hello. Im rather new to the boards, and wanted to talk about my puppy Briar for a bit. He is now 16 weeks old, going on 17. He is a bundle of energy most of the day. Right now though he is sleeping behind my feet. He is a pure bred Shih tzu, too bad I dont have his papers or I could easily...

This is rather hard. Even if it has been a month or so. This year has been very hard for me. Iv lost quite a few people this year. But the hardest was losing my dog, Pokey. I had gotten him when I was eight, that was 14 years ago. I still cant believe he is gone. Eight years old when I...

Hello! Im new from Alaska. I have a 16 week old Shih tzu puppy named Briar.
