Ahhh well sorry, somewhere here there was a post reply that mentioned the breeder having 4 children.
I do not know anything about the dispostion, etc of shi tsu dogs so if I had known he is a mixed breed I would not comment. I well know the characteristics and dispositions of Yorkies only.

Being "soft" is not a bad thing...you can be strong and discipline the puppy without being abusive. Punish him by crating him when he is not behaving. Say a strong NO and pick him up and put him in the crate for a time.

Good luck to you...
