Paco passed his first test when my sister came over, he didn't bark at her and instead wanted to play and have cuddles. Thanks for suggesting the kong! We got him one and it's currently got peanut butter and puppy kibble stuffed in it. He loves it - it's in a special place in his bed; actually he seems to keep ALL his toys in his bed.<br/><br/>tofu, first I wanted a chihuahua (based on your Ben of course!). M was reluctant. So I changed my mind and wanted a pug. M: they are so fuggly! So I said, what about a chihuahua then? M: Well ok! ;)<br/><br/>Muchas gracias, Daily Magnet :)<br/><br/>Hi Belongum, you're right about having to be careful where you put your feet! I'm really paranoid of treading on Paco.

tofu, first I wanted a chihuahua (based on your Ben of course!). M was reluctant. So I changed my mind and wanted a pug. M: they are so fuggly! So I said, what about a chihuahua then? M: Well ok! ;)

Muchas gracias, Daily Magnet :)

Hi Belongum, you’re right about having to be careful where you put your feet! I’m really paranoid of treading on Paco.

Welcome Paco - may your tuckerbowl always be full, and the bigger critters (them there humans) light-footed and caring!<br/><br/>Always avoided little dogs myself - mostly cos I just couldn't see 'em down there - I'd do myself an injury!!! lol<br/><br/>;-) Ahhhh - a new addition to the household… Welcome Paco - may your tuckerbowl always be full, and the bigger critters (them there humans) light-footed and caring!

(though I know they can be nasty little buggers, ha ha!)<br/><br/>If you haven't got him it already, get him the type of toy which you can put food in, it's challenging!<br/>A 'kong'is good, but get one at kmart, much cheaper than pet shop, same brand! They're good to chew AND get biscuits out of. You can even freeze stuff in them, so it takes even longer to get something out!<br/><br/>I'm glad to read you got him from a proper kennel! :) (not as many brownie points as a refuge, but much, much, much better than a pet shop! :D )<br/><br/>Have fun, dogs are wonderful (most of the time!)

We have shut him up in a room with his bed, a toy, food and water, but I can't help worrying that he will have chewed something he shouldn't, or tried to climb and hurt himself, or something...

Nice. Welcome Paco. Aha..a fur person who can go out and run in the park with you, but still small enough to cuddle on your lap. Nice. Welcome Paco.
