Oh T, he's gorgeous. You bringing him to the meet next week? Moose will be coming along with us, so the boys can play together.

He is gorgeous - it's a shame you are not in Victoria - he could have made sweet babies with my Molly - well when they get a bit older and had a few dates!!!!

There's an idea!
Well, first night, OH slept on the 3 seater (alcohol induced) and I ended up on the 2 seater all night :ohmy:
Put them both to bed in the laundry but my other dog, Molly, kept barking at him and he kept crying. Had to relent otherwise it would have woken the kids and didn't fancy having them in the lounge as well!
I know it will take time for them both to get used to each other and for him to settle into our family, but hope it's quick!
Anyone got any ideas?

Won't be able to bring him as he hasn't had all his vaccinations yet.

Meet Robbie
 
He's really cute Tracey. He looks very similar to our pup. We got Robbie last Sunday. He's a Shih Tzu X King Charles Cavalier.

I was adamant I was not going to have a dog but under the pressure from my OH & daughter I crumbled. Although he's very cute I'm wondering what on earth have I done :unsure:
Could really do with some reassuring words if anyone has any? Does it get easier? I've gone into obsessive clean mode because I can't stand 'dog odour'.

Aww bless Tracey.

We are getting a dog soon too. Paul is away on and off now until end May so the hunt starts proper when we get back. Have a couple of breeders names (thanks Nicky and Sandra) so can't wait now.

Leigh, he's lovely. We found the best thing for "doggy odour" is to clean with a vinegar/water solution as soon as he has an accident. It will get rid of the proteins in the urine/poop. I then wash the floors with NuClenz eucalyptus scent. Makes the house smell nice and clean. Also, keep his bedding clean and be sure to vaccuum regularly to keep the hair under control.

Thanks Dorothy, the odour isn't from urine or poop though, it's just a general doggy smell. We've washed his bedding & he's had a couple of baths, he looks gorgeous & fluffy after his bath but he still smells :rolleyes:
He's due at the vets this week for injections so I'll get the vet to check him over, see if there's anything else we could be doing.
