Hi. I have a [COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]puppy[/COLOR][/COLOR] who is aprox. 3 months old - need advice about everything.
Bathing - how old must he be etc before i can [COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]bath[/COLOR][/COLOR] him? You can bathe him now---just make sure you dry off his ears really well! And, groom him after his bath

Eating - am I allowed to give him treats and what treats are allowed? I recommend only carrots and cheerios or nature's best treats (limited!!!!) some people do boiled brown rice and cooked chicken--no seasoning

Toilet training - This is a big one!! we use puppy pads

I don't have a [COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]kennel[/COLOR][/COLOR] for him or a crate? he sleeps with me at night and during the day he plays with his sister (my mom's) and sleeps in a basket [COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]bed[/COLOR][/COLOR] with her...

Grooming is a big part of puppy care---daily brushing, brush teeth, clean out ears, clean hair out of ears, trimming or going to be groomed.

I recommend picking up a book on Yorkie care---they need special care to stay healthy for a long time! And, make sure your puppy is eating high quality food---a lot use Royal Canin or Nature's best--read the threads here there are some VERY experienced and wonderful people. Have fun!!!

Have I forgotten anything?

Thanks in advance!
