Moments of Memories~

The newest edition to the family. He's a 9 week old Shih Tzu (Sheet-zoo).

He's 6 inches tall and weighs 3 pounds. He should grow to about 11 inches and 15 pounds as an adult.


He has a busy frisky personality and does not like sleeping alone yet. He wants to chew on everything. That attribute combined with his appearance tempted us to call him Chubakah.

He's tri-colored. You can see some of the brownish tint to his coat (more prominently on top of his head). He has 4 white paws, a white tummy and a white tipped tail. from a distance, his white forehead and face have a skunk stripe look.

Like Dollie, he follows mom around all day, sits on her lap while she blogs or under the desk while she surfs the net. She talks to him, plays with him and generally stays totally busy. There never was much time to spare in her schedule, but now there's none.

He may be a bit challenging to house-break due to the cold and snowy weather. He can stop and pee faster than you can bend over to catch him. When he does his duties outside - he makes a beeline for the door. His coat of fur is very long soft and silky but not as warm as it appears. Unlike Dollie - he's a pudgy round little guy and loves to eat. A definite candidate for Jenny Craig.

Will keep you posted on his progress.

Bye the way, does anybody know if they make pull-ups for puppies?


Merry Christmas !!!
