Hello, my name is Michelle, I'm new here.

Our new little pup Snickers is 13 weeks old (3.5lbs at last vet check!) and is keeping us all on our toes. She's a Yorkie/Shih Tzu mix, and she's only the second small dog we've ever had. We had a cocker spaniel , our very first baby, for years and years but that was quite a long time ago, and since then we've always had big labs. I've always wanted another little doggy, but with 4 kiddos it was a while before I felt ready to take on the challenge! LOL
So Snickers has a mom and a dad, one human sister and 3 human brothers, and a 70lb. black lab goof of a sister, whom she already bosses around like a natural little princess.

Housebreaking...lets just stay it's going and leave it at that. We have good days and not so good days. At least she's sleeping all night now though, I haven't had an 'infant' in the house for a long time, and whew, it wore me out! LOL
I've been reading this board for a few days now, and have already gotten some really good info, so thanks for that. I hope to participate, but 4 kids+2 dogs=not as much computer time as Mom would like! I'll do my best.

Michelle
