Introducing myself and Bella
Hi everyone, just wanted to quickly introduce myself. Although I currently live in my native South Africa, I grew up in the UK and lived there for 20 years so wanted to join a UK forum...and also Shih Tzu's are very very rare here in South Africa (I get asked at least 3 times a day what breed my Bella is followed by the response: "a what-tzu?!"). Bella is my 10 week old Shih Tzu, and I joined as I wanted as much guidance as possible with raising a puppy. My last dog, a Westie, died a year ago (broke my heart) so I was only 10 when she was a puppy so don't remember much about puppyhood! Anyway, I look forward to getting to know some of you and your Shih Tzu's!

Aww, she's lovely! Sorry, no puppy advice as we got Ellie when she was 15 months but I just wanted to say hello!
How does Bella cope with the heat?

Re: Introducing myself and Bella
Hello Bella Daisy welcome from me and my two girls Mali & Tasha. Shih Tzu's are a fantastic breed. If you need help with your new puppy there will be someone who can help. Although I have had and bred dogs for over 30 years I have always had bigger dogs until 5 years ago when I had my first Shih Tzu Mali and I could never imagine having any other breed now.

Re: Introducing myself and Bella
Hi Carla and welcome to the forum, it's great to have you here.
We are a very friendly bunch of shih tzu addicts, so feel free to join in and chat. Sorry to hear about your Westie, I have one who is 11 years old and a real character, so I can totally understand the way you were feeling. Bella will never replace her, but she will certainly help you feel better. Shih Tzu have a habit of getting right into your heart, and she will get up to so much mischief you would never think it possible!

Re: Introducing myself and Bella
Hello, and welcome to this great forum! I have two Shih Tzu, one is 4 years old and 1 is 8 months old.
Re: Introducing myself and Bella
Thanks for all the welcomes!
EvonneSB - Bella copes with the heat by spreading herself out over the cool tiles in the house. She lies flat on the ground with her belly on the floor, and legs kicked out to the front and the back! Too cute. If it gets really hot, then I put a bottle of water in the fridge which she then cuddles up to.
