[thumb:1556:l]At the end of week three Max could sit and lay down on command. Yeahhh!!!! But, he still can’t pee for Drew. Need a puppy psychologist ya think?
Max is getting his last set of shots this Friday and Shady’s getting her teeth cleaned. Then Max is going to spend a day with me shopping at the doggy store :D I was scheduled to go to a scrapbook expo that day in KC. But with Max’s peepee issue, I just can’t leave him with Drew. So until he can pee with Drew supervising, I guess I can’t do any extended leaves.
You’re thinking I’m nuts, huh? Naaah, just being a responsible human to my pup. Max also went to puppy class. He had such a great time playing and learning new tricks. We’re going again and can’t wait to see what Max learns next.
On the house subject, we got it clean!!!! Yeah!!!! Clothes put away, most everything dusted, everything else put away, and now just little touch ups like bathroom routine, picking up every time, etc. It’s nice. Glad I have a neat freak of a husband.

Well, that’s what Max is currently. His adoption papers said Lhasa but I think I wrote previously that I did some snooping around and found a breeder’s site with a picture of a pup that looks like Max. The site said that Max is a Shih Tzu Bichon mix. A “designer” (aka a fancy way for some breeders to sell mutts to make a buck) type of dog that is also known as a Zhucon.
When I saw Max the first time, he didn’t quite seem like a Lhasa. Purebred they said. When I took him to puppy school, many said that he doesn’t look too Lhasa-ish. He’s got some but there’s something else. The instructor, he said that he’s almost sure Max isn’t a purebred.
I’m not too worry if he’s pure or not. I just thought that knowing makes it easier for me to learn about him kind. I have read books on Lhasas since I got him and maybe all the obvious articles online. I also read a few training books and stuff online and have been training Max as if he’s a Lhasa. He seems to take to the method so maybe the whatever Lhasa in him is ok with my choice :D
