For the Nickster... by special request : )
 

Well, she did it again! And this is her last time. We just aren't gonna be ok with her "doggin' around" anymore. And her poor mate...he trys to satisfy, but alas - to no avail. :( She likes those strays...

4 weeks old Sunday :D Aren't they cute?

Some more...
 

They are 1/2 Shih Tzu and 1/2 Rat Terrier (small)

Last ones... :D
 

They are just starting to be fun... they try to growl and bark - they scare themselves... :D

Ahhhhhhhh....... cute family additions!

I want one!!!!.....I'll even drive out and pick one up :)
Adoreable Chey :)

Thanks Coaster & jbh3. They are precious. We had wanted Ty and Tasha (both Shih Tzu) to breed, but no matter how hard he tried, it never happened. Shih Tzu's typically only have 2 or 3 pups, and we wanted to keep them. This is her last litter (the other 2 a traveling sales Lab - yes, it was a yellow lab) got her and we tried to abort, but the shots didn't take).

There are 3 boys and 3 girls - all of the boys are taken, we will keep one of the girls. As soon as they are weened, she is getting fixed.

Mom is about 8 lbs and the dad is around 6 lbs - so they aren't going to be very big. Nice inside the house ankle biters.. :D

Cheyanne,

Adorable! Thank you. (I'm the dog lover in a cat household)

I adore them all, but mostly the one with the white stripe in the middle of the face... sooooooo cute!

I'm not a rat terrier fan, but have always wanted a shih tzu.

OK, there were some pissy looking pups in pics 9,10 & 11 (in the back). If they're three different pups, I'll take three. If they're all the same guy, I'll walk down and get him myself. I want them all, though!!!!!!

The whole litter weighs less than 100-lbs. of Solon. :D I had just said tonight that I want my next dog not to be at dinner table level.

Let's work out the details. FedEx? Wrap 'em in ditch weed?

Well, I think you know how I feel about dogs and I would tell you that I want all of them, but you have my address and I'm afraid of the package I would receive!

I will intercept it if necessary!

LOL ^^^^^^^^

The 3 boys are lively ones...2 are going to a family with boys :D and the other one is going to a granda type person... (LOL). We only have the 2 girls left. The dark chocolate brown one in the back has a "brindle" look about her...she is lively, but gentle. She looks at you and it appears that she is wise. I am partial to the one Maddy said she liked - she is the runt of the litter and a little meek. She will fit in perfect with the 2 we already have.

I have to giggle a little bit. I can remember Alasse/Sharni's pics of Scooby. These little things wouldn't even be the size of his paw.. :p

My Scooby would love one or two of them!! He'd plop a paw on em and lick em to death lol....i'd end up woth slobber coated puppies *LOL*

They really are adorable!!

AWWWWW I can't take the cuteness!....goodluck in the next few weeks keeping the stains off the carpet....but still isn't puppy poop cuter than well.... the dinner table level doggies lol

Awwwwwwwwwwwww they are simply adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cute

They are soooooooo cute!!!!!!! What sweet lil face's. I'd want them all!!!!

I think Nickster is avoiding this thread because he dosn't want anyone thinking they are his.

How sweet. I wish I had the time and energy for a puppy. I have two old girl dogs.

Very adorable....and I bet quite a bit of work. Glad they have such loving "parents." :)

The Nickster says he thinks Scooby OR Solon leaves bigger lawn-mines every day than the combined weight of the pups AND the parents. He said that Tasha is too much of a fluzzy for him to be seen with right now. :D










rofl

LOL.. yeah ^^^^^ but she makes cute babies... :D

I will take more pictures in a couple of weeks and add onto this thread - you will see them changing and growing.

Nickster wants you to put something in the pics for scale (audio cassette, cig pack, 12" (25mm) ruler. He thinks it might show how tiny they are now and watch the growth. :)

and by weeks you meant minutes?

Bibi wants you to know that Rat Tzus are not allowed in Toronto. They are only permitted up to Hamilton. :D

When I was talking to Steph, I mentioned that I should have put a pencil or ruler next to them so people could get a idea of their size. I will include that on the next go around. :D

*EEK* :eek:

What kind of an example is that for a puppy-parent? She wants them to all grow wings. :mad:















[well :rolleyes: ......................... her ONE redeeming value is that she is good to her pup (that's as close to being human as she can get) ]

You know PF, if Steph were closer, I wouldn't hesitate in giving her one of these adorable babies for that very reason. I have a difficult time giving them away wondering if they are going to be ok.. :(

Next week - soft can food is going to be introduced.. roflmao - that is always funny. They don't quite know what to do. A finger has to be dipped into the soft food and then they lick it off - then they know! :D

That's EXACTLY the kind of pics I think Nickster would love to see. :D

Awww Chey they are so adorable! Congrats!

They're going to be fine, Chey! They look like tough little guys and gals. :)

Ahahaahhahah, soft food! *faints from cuteness overload*

Who ever knew Rat Shih[T] would turn out so freakin adorable?

Wait a minute...that was a stinky joke!

Um...anyway...I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO jealous that you have a basket full of puppies! I'd be sleeping with them if they were mine!

Someday...SOMEDAY...I WILL have my chocolate lab and she WILL have a basket full of puppies for me! Till then I live vicariously through you Chey!

TY for sharing! I'm in Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww heaven!

They all got their first bath and blow dry! :) We put them on the table beside a pop can so you can see how they are growing. They are 5 weeks old. The second boy LOVED the bath & blow dry - the other two could have done without it ... lol. The girls were so-so.

We have introduced pouched food for them (not dry) and water. Of course, all the boys are pigs.. lol - no problem with them eating!

They all have the Shih Tzu coats... fuzzy with an undercoat. They are shaped like Shih Tzu also.. the large front legs/paws chest span, and narrow at the rear. They are soooooooo cute!

Here are the girls.. :D

First of all..........HI CHEY!!!

They are cute as bees knees

I had to give my dog a hug after I saw them :)

/me wonders where my magnifying glass....and some bees.....are

How did they get a million times cuter since last week? How?!?!?!

I want a puppy & a Mountain Dew now!

The girls are cuter than the boys.....

But i'd not say no to any of em *LOL*

Boy number 3 looks like a Bruno. I'd want them all.
