My Little Shih tzu (Pebbles)

She was born on 10th Jan 2010, I had wanted a Shih tzu for quite a while but I put it off till the time was right, my Mum was a bit apprehensive at first and asked me if I was sure but now she is here and already settled down and she follows me everywhere Bless Her and wouldn’t be without her now. We bought her home in the afternoon Sunday 21st 2010. (6wks Old) I named her Pebbles as the Lady that I bought her from said that they take theirs to the beach so that made me think of Pebbles + she has pebble colours at the moment but was told that she will get a lot lighter.
She has a good appitite, sleeps a lot and when she wakes I put her on news paper for a wee but she doesn’t know what to do yet and runs off and wee’s when I’m not looking, naughty girl but she will get the message in the end and I will have to get the carpet cleaned, though I do go round after her with the cleaning cloth LOL
First night she went to bed at 11.45pm and woke about 3am so up I got took her to the paper for a wee and this time used the paper lol then I played with her for a while to tire her out and she slept till 4.30am when my Husband Barry got up to get ready for work so another wee & play for a while and back to bed, she slept till 7.30am and me too, Ha! she is a lovely bundel of fun and keeps me on my toe’s while she is awake. The little girl with Pebbles is my Grandaughter Mia Aged 4yrs 5mths.
More to tell another time.

I know exactly how you feel LadyEssex as she looks and behaves just like our Barnaby when he came to live with us.

LadyEssex Have a look at the latest addition to my photo Gallery.

She is a gorgeous bundle of fluff and going to be very spoilt...
Jacky one of our boys is only 6mths old and when we first brought him home I used the waterproof puppy mats and they were a great help with his training..........

Oh! When I looked at your Shih tzu Heron I thought, Pebbles has a double LOL

Lincslass. I bought some warerprof puppy mats but she hasn't got the message yet, I even sprayed the mat to entice her on it too.
Ha! This morning I sprayed the news paper to entice her on that but she trotted all round the edge and done no.2s on the viynl lay and then in the lounge while I had my back turned but she will learn hopefully lol.

A beautiful little addition to your family.

That's why I posted it Ladyesses1, they do look alike even though Barnaby is a Lhasa Apso. At any age they're so alike. Sadly I didn't have a digital camera when he was a puppy but I've made up for it lol. Pebbles is a perfect name but I'll bet he'll acquire nicknames. I'm not too keen on the name Barnaby but he has other names. Sometimes I call him 'Darcy' cos when he does that determined walk, he 'bussel's along. Ps can we see more pickies?

She is so cute, she will get there.

Heron. She has already got a nickname, "Puddles" LOL
I looked up about Shih tzu puppy's and found out too late that the Breaders shouldn't of let her leave her Mum till at least 8wks old also that it illigal too, sure hope she will be ok, she seems to be alright, she is very bright, playful, sleeps and plays alot and doesn't cry to much + she eats well, (Chicken& Rice),( Bakers Complete 2in1 Puppy Gravy Bites) and we add water to it, will get some Lamb & Beef Mince & Fish as well,, the breaders told us not to give her pork or milk, we give her lots of love and cuddles. I'm going to ring a vets near me this week and have her checked over also see about her having her injections.
I'm off for now.

So glad you're taking her to the vet, most important. I understand about the 'cuddles' they're so soft with pink paws. I watched a programme on TV this morning about RSPCA one case was about some kittens sold at 4 weeks. They needed urgent attention to build up their strength. hope you get an appointment ASAP.
24 Feb, 2010
Ps I'm off to the 'vets' tomorrow and will be off-line for a few days, will check to see how she got on when I get back home.
24 Feb, 2010
Sorry but I won't be off-line afterall, the Hospital have just rang to say they've no beds, talk about last minute.

Hi Dee. Welcome to GOY, Thanks, she has grown & changed in looks now.

She is adorable. I have shih-poo who is attached to me at the hip. She is toilet trained but still uses her puppy pad as I am out of the house at work during the day.

Ha! Ha! Chloe01. I know what you mean, Pebbles is on my heals where ever I go, can't even go to the loo LOL Pebbles is good with her toilet training but being upstairs in a flat to my Mum is a bit of a problem, she will just look at me when she wants to go out, I have a large square plastic tray from my Greenhouse that I used to use to put pot's on for watering and now have it at the top of the stair's with news paper in and she will use it if she can't get to go outside. Good Girl :0)
