This is my Shih-Tzu, Bisou. I adopted her when she was 4 & 1/2 and now she is 9 & 1/2. We live in Manhattan Beach, CA. She had some issues when I first got her.... being agressive towards other dogs & even growling or snapping at me sometimes.... but with a lot of love and also some training (more for me than her), she is a much happier dog now & better behaved... and knows how much she is loved. I do watch 'The Dog Whisperer' (in fact I took a break from watching it to write to you) and I've gotten a lot of good tips from Cesar that have really worked." "Bisou is very loyal, energetic, and has a very good heart. She's also quite amusing. She's like her mom (me!) in that she loves eating vegetables (I make salads a lot) and she also loves popcorn & doggie ice cream (Frosty Paws). She loves going for walks especially by the beach where we live. She has a beautiful thick tan & white coat which is a little wavy. She loves to lay on her back rubbing herself on the carpet like she's giving herself a massage. My niece calls it "the Bis Bis dance"!"
"My life has been made better because of her." Mei Lee is truly one of a kind. Without much training on my part she has become one of the most obedient creatures I know. She is leash trained but I never hesitate to walk her with out a leash because she never leaves my side. Sometimes I forget that she is only a dog, but she means much more to me then that. She is like a child to me. She has such a great little personality although she isn't the most active little dog. She prefers to sit on the couch and watch TV on our relaxing evenings together. Her favorite shows are The Dog Whisperer and America's Funniest Home Videos. Her favorite foods include carrots, apples, bananas, and tangerines; she has no problem sitting on me until I give her a slice. Lastly, her favorite activity is walking and hiking. Although she is a Shih Tzu, she is a great mountain dog because she has no problem with getting a little dirty, and when we can't get to mountains she loves to take a cool relaxing dip in my parents pool during the hot days of summer." |
