The Great Escape

Momma Elise played with me this morning after Dada JJ went to work. I think playing will become a part of my morning routine to stay fit and healthy. I felt fresh after she wiped my body. This wipe smells so fresh and it has lanolin on it which is good for me. She also brushed my hair. It is growing really fast. After all the playing, she had me rested for about an hour and gave me a good breakfast. Puppy Chow and Water that is! Yum!...and then I rested again while Momma is getting ready for work. It was almost lunch time when she has to leave for work so she put me in my bed...its nap time!

Momma didn't work much today. She was home past 4PM and I surprised her because I managed to get out from the fence! Hahaha! It wasn't planned though. Suddenly it just opened while I was
trying to get out of the fence. I was roaming the great room when she saw me. I just can't help it. I am so eager to explore my new home.

Anyway, we spent time infront of the computer today. I was inside this warm blanket napping at Elise's lap while she is busy tinkering at the keyboard...ahhh I remember she said she was making me a blogsite, and this is it! I am excited to have me and some of my photos posted in the internet, cool!

Finally, Dada was home! Yay! We missed each other so bad. We played quite a bit while Momma was making dinner. After some rest, I played again....I love to bite their fingers and toes :) heheh! They always say NO! But I just can't help it. Momma played with me until I was worn out. I think she purposely planned it so I can sleep and not cry in the midle of the night. ( But I did anyway!)

Adjusting my New Environment

Poor Dada JJ and Momma Elise, didn't get enough sleep from last night. It was around 4AM until they fall asleep again. It was so nice of JJ to stay and work from home. He doesn't want to leave me all by myself on my first day. That was so sweet of him. Momma was still in bed. Around 8AM, JJ was already calling the Vet's Office to set up an appointment for my first checkup. Oh, I remember before I left my old home, my breeder Julie gave me a shot. Dada was holding me while Momma was looking. I didn't say a thing. I didn't cry nor get wild. See how good girl I am? I am so proud of myself.

Dada left me around 5PM to get some food and get me a Pet Gate, a puppy carrier - ya know he will take me to my first vet visit :) he also bought me eye wipes, ear wipes and book for shih tzu and my shampoo. Can't wait to have my shower :)

Momma finally came home a little late around 8:30PM. She played with me. I chased and nipped at her. Did you know, I can run as fast as her? Sometimes she almost stepped on me because I love to be in between her feet. That would have been a big Ouucchhh!

Btw, I wasn't too sure about their kitchen floors...it looked to shiny! I am afraid to step on it, so I just stay in the carpeted area. Also, JJ bought me this food and water plate that are made of metal? They also looked too shiny and I could see myself whenever I go near it. Not to mention it makes a squirky sound if I accidently moved it. Momma patiently cleaned my dried eye tears today but I thought she was playing with me so l bit her fingers. Dada put his fingers in my mouth as a pacifier so Momma could finish the job.

At night. I don't really like when I am all by myself. It's so freaking dark. Makes me lonely and sad. Momma slept very sound while I was waking up Dada around 2AM, 4AM and 5AM. He got up for work at 6:30AM, he looked a little woozy :)

Before I forget, they have decided that my name will be STAR! I am the Star of All Shih Tzu!

Welcome Home

Hi everyone! Dada JJ and Moma Elise pickep me up last Sunday November 27. I was excited to see them and being a new addition to their family. At the same time, I am sad to leave my Grandma - Joyjoy, my Mom Mai and my Dad - Coco. Not to mention my breeder Julie and her husband who play's a lot with me. Hopefuly everything will be OK.

After everything was set, I went with Moma and Dada. I'm not sure how I feel the first time I was on the road. Sudden brakes and turning makes me dizzy, but I was OK.

That night, Moma went to work and I was left with Dada. I wasn't too sure yet if he will liked me because he had a trauma with dog's when he was a kid. But we get along pretty well. Infact he did find me cute. He played with me, in return I pooped and pee on his carpeted floors. I know I'm bad, I just have to learn soon to pee in my wee-wee pads.

Last night was the loneliest night of my existence. Dada and Moma played with me for a while and then suddenly they put me in the laundry basket with a towel that serves as my pillow and blanket, with a newspaper and toys. Moma doesn't want me to be in their room on their first night but JJ insisted. I guess I gotta love Dada even more huh? Then, suddenly lights turns off and the darkness fill the whole place. About 2:40AM I woked up. It was so quiet. Suddenly I want to see my family - Grandma - Mom and Dad. I am stressed out and home sick. I cried out so loud.

JJ woke up and came to me. He was telling me to go back to sleep but I can't. I wanted him to play with me instead. He put me out from the basket and I started running around. He played with me for awhile. Then gave me some food. I wasn't hungry. I just needed company.

Since Dada need to sleep, he put me back into the basket and turned off the lights. It was dark again! I cried. Moma doen't want to spoil me even of she likes me. She told Dada to put me downstairs - into the bathroom so they can sleep.

They took all my stuff and put me into the bathroom all the way downstair. I am more stressed. I cried out so loud again, until I got tired and fall asleep.
