On April 20, 2011 a little black shih tzu puppy came into the world. As luck would have it, she picked me to be her mama.
I named her Khailee and on June 19, 2011 we started our adventures in puppyhood.
Khailee is a real social butterfly but she also has a very zen energy about her.
From my experience, this is what the shih tzu breed is really all about – tons of personality but not in a whack-a-doodle kind of way.
Calm.
Clever.
Charismatic.
She has already made more canine and human friends then I have ever had. Creatures just gravitate to her and she relishes the attention.
(So do I!)
Below is a series of journal entries that I drafted to track Khailee’s progress. I began with weekly entries and am now maintaining updates on a monthly basis.
Soon this section will include a short series of video posts on the highlights and lessons learned of puppy rearing.
