Baby shampoo it is!  I will use cornstarch on his face until I can get some eye envy (for tear stains)

Aww Dedee he is adorable.  I have a Jack Russell Terrier - short haired.  My mother has him spoiled rotten; and when he doesn't get his way he falls out on the floor on his back!!  LMAO!!  He nips me; he wont nip my parents.  And when he does I tell him NO BITE and he stops until later!! LOL!!

OMG, that is too funny ****il later)....DJ has Rascal spoiled and expecting to get on his lap all the time....I"m like BABY NO! I love to play with him...I have his lil asse giving me five....we gotta get this potty training down before I put a cotton ball in his asse!

Your puppybaby is tooo cute!

I have no advice for you DeDee, but just wanted to say HI  
and good luck with your little Rascal.  
Have not seen you for a while, hope you are doing well.

Isabelle uses an Aloe & Oatmeal Shampoo, I got from the vet. They said it suppose to help her dry skin. I didn't know how to paste a picture of her, but she's a hard headed chihuahua.

Does she shed? I wanted a minpin, but they said minpins and chihuahua shed really bad.

Yes she does shed bad. I try to brush her when I remember so it won't be as bad.

 

We have a yorkie about 4 years old weighs 4 pounds, very tiny. 

With small dogs you have to be very careful of their necks you can collapse their tracia very easily by walking them on a neck leash instead of a body harness leash.  

You have to buy them treat and toys specially for small dogs if not they will tear up their gums on things that are to hard for them. 

You have to keep their eye area clean or it will stain, and you may want to keep them in a puppy cut, it's cuter and less work.    They require a lot of brushing.

Our dog loves to be held and treated like a baby.  She is so tiny it's easy to carry her anywhere you go without anyone know she is in your bag. 

Make sure you feed them small dog specific food.

Toy dogs bellies are about the size of a small tangerine so they don't eat much,  make sure you always have fresh water for them, in the summer clean the bowl a couple times a week cause it can slime up and make them sick.

For softer treats, you should store them in the refrigerator cause they can go bad.

I love dogs, especially toy dogs.  When my Bear Bear died I didn't think we would get another toy but then we found this tiny little yorkie that is full of love and happiness. 

I LOVE AND MISS YOU BEAR BEAR.

 

Yeah, I am going to get the harness one this weekend. I don't like the neck one.......I have pupparoni treats with his greeddy self and too many toys LOL

He came with some of his favorite toys and I had purchased him like 4 Nylabones and some fleece dogs (for soft chew).......

He was raised on Diamond something dog food and she gave me 3 months worth....so I have to order some...it is hard and I like it.....

Rascal is a bigger Malt. Malts can range from 4-7 pounds....He is so greedy and weight 6.5 lbs....we see our vet this week and will get a more detailed eating plan.

He had tear stains when I purchased him....I am getting some eye envy.....I can't do a puppy cut on him because his fur is soooo thin.....so thin it rarely mats......but I brush him every day and redo his knot every day.  I am going to have his hair cut to like 2 inches (scissor cut).

Thanks for the tips!  ~smooches~
