I'm a newbie

Hi
I'd like to introduce myself as I've only just joined this afternoon, first thankyou all for the wonderful welcome secondly, we only became Shihtzu owners for the first time today, we went only to see the puppy and ended up coming home with him, he's the most adorable little fur ball you have ever seen, I'm so in love with him right now
He's 12 weeks old and a browny, blacky sort of colour with wonderful soft fur and 2 white paws, we've decided to call him Archie.

If anyone has got any tips or advice that they can give me, I'd happyly take it and whatever words you'd like to say
Thanks for having me

Hi Gem,

There will be so much advice on here already and everyone is really friendly and helpful. Everyone will love Archie, I am sure. They will also be very jeaslous, including me lol! Enjoy him while he is small as they grow up so quickly!

Hi Gem and welcome to the forum and also to the elite club of shih tzu owners - your life will NEVER ever be the same again (and i mean that in a wonderful way ) There are lots of things on here already and one thing I would suggest is to have a look at the house training threads - as they might be useful for you and also the clicker training sections I have prepared because you cannot start them too young - and I think that you will be amazed at how quickly Archie will learn and want to please you (and that doesn't last for long )

If you need any help just shout - right now I am off to meet your young baby xxx
