My shiranian is all of 3 months old. I have had her for a week and 3 days. She is a very happy puppy, she likes to play tug-a-war, and of course she loses at her small 5 pound frame.

She learns fairly quickly, I have taught her to sit when I have a treat in hand, and I'm trying to house break her.

So far crate training has gotten better just over 1 day. At first she would cry like a banshee when placed in her crate, but as of today she does fine when I put on some kind of noise from my computer, I place a shirt with my scent on it, and she seems to do ok when left alone.

House breaking so far, isn't going all that great. I won't be too negative because it has only been a week and I understand it can take a few months for a puppy to be house broken.

I am so happy to have her as a pet, everyone who comes into contact with her loves her fluffy coat and her teddy bear like face.

She is adorable.
