Congrats on your little one. You will need to confine him to a small area if you want any hope of getting him potty trained. An ex-pen (www.jbpet.com) is a wonderful thing. I would not suggest taking him to the zoo, ever. The beach is fine, but I would keep him home for a few days to adjust to one new thing at a time. Too much stimulation can be exhausting for little guys. Yes, trim and bathe, impacted feces is bad news. Harnesses are the only thing to use and easy if you are consistent about handling your dog daily. Don't just pet him, rub ears, feet,all over and don't forget to brush teeth. Training/care info is posted on my site www.sylvanyorkies.com Best of luck with your new boy.
