every 7-14 days depending on how dirty her coat is.  This has been the same story since I brought her home at 10 weeks old.  She is now over 2 and a half years old.  After I finish brushing & combing her I spend a couple of minutes prepping her bath.  Winnie “hides” during those few minutes <em>without fail</em> every time.  Like something’s going to change and suddenly she won’t have to endure bath time.  Not while she’s living with this Mommy!</p>http://www.winniethetzu.com/post/23608183755http://www.winniethetzu.com/post/23608183755Wed, 23 May 2012 08:48:54 -0500shih

calls.  I don’t feel comfortable leaving Winnie tied up outside unless I have a full view of her through a storefront window or something of the like, and let’s face it, bathrooms do not usually have such windows (nor would be want them to!).  Lucky for me, Winnie is a pro at being very quiet & sitting very still so as not to be noticed.</p>http://www.winniethetzu.com/post/23415576751http://www.winniethetzu.com/post/23415576751Sun, 20 May 2012 10:06:53 -0500shih tzudogpuppynature callspublic bathroomproquietwinniewinnie the

April photos.  I might go to twice daily posts again to catch up a bit.  In the meantime, at least I’m posting photos from the same season as actual time!</p> <p>It can be hard to get good pics of Winnie’s bows and her looking at the camera due to how I put her hair up and how her head is shaped.  I feel like most of my pictures don’t do her bows justice.  This cute set is what Winnie wore on Palm Sunday to go to a family party and for her Easter photo shoot.  It has little Easter eggs on it in cute pastels.  Gotta love Doggie Bow Ties!</p> <p>*<span class="Apple-style-span"><a

of her first year (months 7-12) I realized I don’t have enough to make separate videos per month as I have been doing for the previous videos in the series.  I need more time to make one final compilation of all the footage I do have plus pictures to wrap up this series and will hopefully have that video to share with you all in a week or two.  In the meantime, I’m looking for requests, ideas, and suggestions for what you’d like to see on WTZT once the puppyhood series ends, as I’d like to post videos as least 2x a month (ideal once a week) on this channel.  Please let me know by leaving a comment.  Thanks for your input!</p> <p>Winnie’s Puppyhood: Life at the Breeder, 0 - 10 Weeks - <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxqwsxTlybw"
