Added on June 9, 2007, 2:08 amI dunno bout you guys but I actually prefer white furkids. Red or brown or black, not my cup of tea, especially black + fleas = damn difficult to track. Anyway, white furkid, you can tell straightaway if he needs a bath. Hahaha..
haha.. i actually like the teddy bear look of a red toy poodle.Corner of the room? Make sure that corner is quite big lor, at least can fit him because he guarantee wont go to the deepest corner. Roughly sampai that corner, he will lepas liao, so if you are planning to use newspaper (thestar newspaper as in the size), make sure its like this:
[thestar][thestar]

i will use wee wee pad, wad do u mean by make sure the corner is quite big, at least can fit him? the corner muz be big enought to fit him? got so big anot the dog.lol.I will put 4 of them together, yes its quite big and yet he still misses sometimes. And I put about 20 pieces thick. No point saving on those newspaper anyway.
I think one of the very good website is www.dogbreedinfo.com; this site tells you about each breed and prone to what kind of diseases. Does not mean only Shih-Tzu will have eye diseases.
Not clip nail once a month larr... Nail is you clip when you feel he's sliding when he walks or it hurts when he scratches your knee when he comes up for attention. Once a month GROOMING... Means RM70 - 80 per month, can tahan boh? Thats why I prefer to do it 3 months once cause home dog, not show dog - grooming, sendiri cut a bit can already.
Oral B is for human so I dont know if its right for dog. I would go for the dog toothpaste instead just to be sure.
actually got sell Doggy ORAL B wan.. juz tat i saw the doggy oral b same as mine.. lol..After finish first bottle, yes the head will be quite smelly but always use wet cloth to clean the head lor... Wet cloth, spray some perfume, its alright. I used to do that too. I got my furkid 1st Jan 2007. I only started showering his head on Apr.
err , perfume specially for dogS? cologne? not scared the cologne get into the eyes meh? actually is it gd for the dog as the dog will inhale some in?About protecting his nose, using your finger, do the 'PEACE!' sign. Then put then upside down and go near your furkid nose and let the nose come inbetween the 'PEACE!' fingers. Then pour water, the water will flow down your fingers and onto the ground without kena the nose, faham?
i understand already. Greenies is a brand and special type of treats, made out of vege. Go to any pet store and ask, you will see it almost anywhere. Greenies come in the shape of a little toothbrush, cute.
You wont spend so long in the toilet washing your dog wan la, dont be silly. If water get into his ears, wipe IMMEDIATELY. Make sure to keep it dry because when it wet, it will get infection EASILY. Then after shower, apply ear drops (I use this blue color ear drops that smells a bit minty one), then cover the ear flaps (if ur furkid has any) and massage the ear from outside, to make sure the ear drops golek golek inside its ears. Then let him go and he will shake like mad, all the ear dust will come out with the titis ear drops that fly out.
After that, try to use cotton bud and gently clean his ears, dont poke too deep inside. You will see a lot of brown things and this is the cause of dog smells. The most smelly part of a dog is the ears.
do i hav to use hair dryer to dry him? or juz let him air dry? The whole eat evening primrose oils or fish oils in the morning, applies to humans so I thought it might apply for doggy also. So oil oil kind of thing, better give in the morning so while during the day they are active, can burn out before storing them become fats. You dont want a fat-dog right?
those fish oils are actually for humans wan isit? no need go pet shop to buy?
wad is the brand of the fish oil? evening primrose i noe.[/quote]
