[QUOTE="nvts, post: 334064, member: 3814"] Hi! Well, we did it. difficult child 2 has been a shining star in a sea of blackness. He's doing well in school, has been a pleasure at home, and is doing the best that he can dealing with difficult child 1. A neighbor's sister had an 8 week old shih tsu that was being pushed around by her 7 month old shih tsu, so she gave it to us. Yahoo. Now mind you, I'm a person who LOVES big, dumb, sloppy, goofy dogs. We've always adopted shelter or dumped animals that couldn't get a home, but even those cost upwards of $250 to adopt. Amazing - they even run credit checks! Now, I'm being told to keep the dog in a cage almost all day or he will get an attitude and feel that he's the pack leader. Is this right? How old should he be to start box training him? He walks in circles all the time, sort of weird in my book. Any hints, tricks, experience with a self-propelled slipper would be greatly appreciated. If you have a good training web-site for small icky dogs, I'd appreciate it as well! Hope everyone is well! Beth [/QUOTE]
