I bet its hard to have to wait for your puppy.? I have a long hair who is will be a year old on the 26 of this month.? He is a very active little guy and has been a joy.? You can get books at any book store and/or pet shop.? I bought maybe 6 different books and they all?more or less have the same information.? There are also magazines for the different breeds, I really liked the one on chihuahuas, it has good information and is not as expensive as some of the books.? The two main hurdles you will face is potty training and chewing.? You have to read as much as you can and then decide which potty training method works best for you.? Because I still work part time, I trained Cesar to use a litter box, linned with newspapers.? He learned almost immediately.? On the days?I am home, I do take him outside alot, so he has learned to do his business outside as well.? You have to puppy proof the room where the puppy will?be kept, ?that means remove anything that is dangerous or valuable, for most certainly he will chew on the most unexpected things.? Puppies bring a lot of work but they also bring alot of joy.? Good luck.

We take ownership of our new long-coat on February 22nd. She will be almost 5 months old and will have been spayed and had all her puppy shots. The breeder is very picky about who he gives his dogs to and we were happy to have passed the test. We named her Elsie and she is the cutest little black and white puppy I have ever seen. We are very excited. What books and websites should I go to for good info, training advice, etc.? We want to be ready for her. Thanks in advance.
