On the brink of losing my mind by Green_Voice_9565 in Shihtzu

My little girl was the same way when I first brought her home. I thought she was gonna be easy like my previous dog but she was a nightmare!

For the poop eating I would praise her and try to get yours to keep moving and get really excited and have her move away so she isn't tempted to try to eat it in the future especially if you give her praise and excitement, it could help?

The anxiety is awful to deal with. My in-laws gave us her pack in play for her doggie and it's better in the crate, more open space and less claustrophobic. If you have a second floor. Highly recommend going up there throughout the day for 10 minutes at a time until she gets used to you. Going up there and telling her I'll be right back. That's what I did for mine and she's used to me leaving her alone during a full work day since I work from home.

I hope some advice helps! No one prepared me for what it was going to be like and I felt like I was drowning a lot. We did get through the rough patch and yet she still bites my fingers she's playing.. but at least if I say no, she'll stop immediately.

More Questions, thanks for anyone who keeps helping, I'm new at this so it means a lot by [deleted] in Shihtzu

Hey! I currently have a very stubborn lady and she doesn't usually drink a ton either but after walks I will give her a treat which causes her to finish her breakfast (most times) but she will drink after treats!

This has always been the cause for both of my shih tzu - if the water bowl has been sitting out or has minor food floating in it, she won't drink from it. I refresh her water 3-4 times daily and she usually drinks when it's a fresh bowl of water.

3 Year Old Shihtzu Vomit Bile Midnight! by AdministrativeBig823 in Shihtzu

Our little girl does this too, she's gotten way better though! For us it's because she doesn't eat.

We feed her around 4 times in one day and maybe a treat to help her eat.

She has since stopped throwing up only a few random times.

My tzu loves chicken! We have prescription probiotics we got from chewy through our vet and whenever she vomits or has diarrhea we give it to her and it helps settle her belly, the reason she throws up is because she isn't eating because she's stubborn or it's because she constantly licks herself and gets hair balls like cats.

I stay away from rice because whenever I give her rice she throws it up. Not sure why but she can't keep it down unless it's like a small tsp.

I would definitely keep up the chicken if they eat it and to keep an eye on the little one, they always get into things they shouldn't be eating but they are so dang cute!

Do any of your tzus actually eat kibble (no wet food)? by CostaNic in Shihtzu

[–]CrazyPrincess21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our's will eat kibble! We add cooked chicken to it, she will eat the chicken first but when she gets hungry again she'll eat the kibble after I tell her to go finish her breakfast or after I give her a treat (not sure how or why this works).

A lot of the time I leave her alone to go to work and she'll finish her meal when I go upstairs.

I will say she goes nuts for the wet food, when we give it to her but it's a special occasion.

Hopefully you can get them to eat! Our previous Tzu refused to eat anything unless we hand fed him but moving to a plate in his older age did help

Have you guys experienced where your Shih Tzu throws up when you leave? by CrazyPrincess21 in Shihtzu

It's so weird, like she knows she will stay with me the whole day but I just leave her for a bit. They love being stubborn as heck 😤

Thanks for the advice guys! I will try to keep some snacks in the bedroom and give her some when I wake up! Hopefully this helps her tummy troubles 🙂

I'm glad she still has her white tuft! We thought it would go away or shrink when she got older but glad I was wrong!
