| RE: Information About Shih Tzu Dogs |
|
I am a BIG fan of Shih-Tzu's and have had a few in my life time. My current Shih-Tzu is a beautiful 12 lb boy named Kooper. They do need to be groomed approx every 6-8 weeks. AND you need to comb them out at least every other day or their hair will mat up. They are noted for being cuddly lap dogs but also playful at the drop of a hat. Very smart too. Another site is the American Kennel Club. They determine what is considered "standard" in the breed -- www.akc.org. Good luck! ... View related article. |

| RE: Keep Dogs Calm During Thunderstorms |

This may sound like a strange suggestion but there is a harpist who has recorded a relaxation CD and of course it is all harp music. We have played this CD for an older dog who was at the point of needing to be sedated during storms. The harpist's name is Amy Camie. Her Website is www.amycamie.com. If you choose the tab labeled gift ideas, the name of the album is New Love. I have used this myself to help me get to sleep. It has really worked. ... View related article. |

My husband and I have done this for years. We call it our "spend to save" plan. We never use our change for purchases -- we always use our dollars. All change makes it home and it is placed in a small crock. As the crock fills up, I sort the silver from the pennies. The pennies go in a large 5 gallon jar and the silver all goes into a large red piggy bank from my husband's childhood. Over the years we have bought a new large TV, a laptop, it has financed a couple of trips to Florida, etc. It is always there if there is an emergency but so far we have not had to use it for that reason. When we cash it in at the bank we go splurge on ourselves. ... View related article. |

I buy my gelatin capsules at Wal-mart but you should be able to buy them anywhere. ... View related article. |

| RE: Older Dog is Having Health Problems |
|
This sounds like your dog maybe suffering from cancer - has the vet done any bloodwork? If her quality of life has greatly diminished I would have to say you need to do right by her and put her to sleep. It is a hard thing to do, to say good bye to a beloved pet but you don't want her to suffer and be in pain. ... View related article. |
