Detergent may sometimes not be able to mask the smell. Try distilled white vinegar with baking soda

No, I don't mean dilute. I mean distilled. You can find it in grocery shops. Sorry but I really don't know what baking soda is in Malay. Maybe someone else here can help

Nope. Just diluted distilled white vinegar will do.

Oh, osso can la.

I really dun know whether he will push it down. So far, I have not seen any shih tzus push it down la. But I dunno whether your jack jack very 'ngau' or not la

After he peed at that spot, did you wipe off the pee with water first and then vinegar? The vinegar is suppose to mask any leftover urine smell but it will not make the dog not go there. If your dog is already used to doing at that spot, then it may be a problem.

Perhaps you can go for crate training. This works on the premise that dogs will generally not pee/poo at their sleeping place. Try reading this link. But this requires time and requires for you to be home whilst undergoing this training

If you are looking for one with cert, then I don't think that you can get one at RM500 but I think RM900-RM1,000 should be relatively easy to find. Are you looking for a puppy or adult? If adult, then maybe RM600 to RM700 can find la but not so easy. Not many people selling adults.

Yeah, very cheap

Huh? I don't understand. The pups either come with cert or they don't. One cannot decide that they want a cert and then go get a cert when the pups are out. The breeder would have registered upon mating.

When the dogs mate, the breeder would have to notify MKA within 28 days. When the puppies are whelped, the breeder will need to submit the Application To Register A Litter form within one calendar month from the birth of the litter. This form has be be accompanied with two photographs - one of the puppies alone and one with their mother.

The microchips will then be issued to the breeders once the photographs are issued. The breeder would then need to ensure that the microchips are implanted by a certified veterinarian. The veterinarian would then need to certify that he had performed the implantation and this needs to be submitted back to MKA.

The certificate would then be issued within a couple of months.

When you bought your MS, did the breeder not scan the dog for you to show you that the dog had a microchip? Or is there a microchip number on your vaccination card?

First and foremost, you need to be a member. Then you need to follow the steps, I mentioned earlier

However, if you say xun is very small sized and jack is much bigger, then I suggest you don't mate coz she may not be able to deliver the babies if they are too big.

Try going out for short periods of time. Leave him in the room and then leave the house for about 10 minutes, then come back again and go see him. This way, you are reassuring him that you will come back. Try this many times but each time, increase the amount of time that you are out. First, try 10 minutes, then 15 minutes, then 20 minutes and so forth. When you come back, give him a treat for being a good boy.

Good luck

Not all pet shops la

Hahaha....I not very expert but can help where I am able to. Can ask anything but if I don't know, I will say I don't know la. Don't want to simply answer for the sake of answering.

Thank you

Syrian, would it be possible to move to a landed house? In that way, you wouldn't have to give up Hepy.

I am so so so glad to hear that. Really good that you have decided to try to make it work. Hepy is one lucky boy!

Is is possible for you to attach three pieces of playpen to your cage? Then put newspapers or your tray within the playpen. Leave the cage door open, so he can come out and pee/poo when he wants. Since he will be contained within the playpen, then he will only do his business there. Errr....hope the explanation is clear. If not, let me know and tomorrow, I will take photo for you and show you what I mean coz I do that for some of my dogs.

Sometimes, some dogs that go for grooming may already have skin problems and if the same equipment is used for other dogs, the bacteria/virus can spread. That's why technically, all grooming equipment should be sterilised in between dogs.

No, no , no...I am NOT saying that bacteria caused Hepy to suffer. I really don't know what happened to Hepy.

I was just responding to Crazymouse saying that the scissors sometimes not clean properly and was just explaining why grooming equipment should be cleaned.
