But, at her young age I would discuss the med and the amount to administer (usually on a pup your size I do 1/2 a dose of the topical tic med).

3. Yep! Girls tend to pee on their feet when they're pups....There is products to make sure that she is kept fresh; Chris Christensen's Show Off; is a soapless self rinse product or baby wipes.

4. You can trim around her anal opening with baby manicure scissors...a bit of bath oil worked into her coat at her hind quarters should keep ornaments from sticking.

Love your choice of words! LOL!


OP - for treats, I actually used the real tiny goldfishes or sometimes cheerios. She loved them and worked great for training purposes.

Baby wipes come in handy quite a lot. Keep them on hand.
