My new boy ... Alfie.

Thanks Bri.

Like I said in an earlier post, I allow Prue my dog, on the sofa but only if she stays in her bed. Same with my bed. She sleeps at the bottom of the bed, in her bed. Of course you need to follow whatever works for you.

Did you ever get Alfie that promised bath? I think he has hair and not fur. Meaning that it will tangle more easily and get oily like people's hair. They are also less likely to create problems for people with allergies, since they have hair. I don't know where I heard all this but since Prue is a Tibetan Terrier and Alfie is a ..... of I forgot what he is, but they are related in breed.

Again, it is good to see that you are having an easy time of it with Alfie. Is he housebroken? Some breeder dogs are not.

On the sofa? Been doing something like you do with Prue, he can lie on there in his bed after I have gone to bed. Housebroken? Yes, whilst at the foster and has been fine here ... until tonight. And yes, he is a Shih Tzu and does have hair not fur.

Oh, Chris, after reading SAS's post, I remembered what I wanted to ask you. If you have
attempted to bathe Alfie yet? I wanted to know how he felt about that.

Gave him a bath this afternoon ... technically a shower, or a bath in the shower anyhow, he was pretty good.
