    Awwww ty for rescuing Opal she is so adorable such a good pup. Opal will grow out of that she is just a pup train her while she is a pup talk to her as person they understand. But when he vet visit they will inform u how much or if she can hear at all. Opal is so blessed u adopted her instead of living her old life style. Be careful of lakes of mostly do to gators crocs they love dogs I've seen so much videos & news on these attacks. An 80 some year old lady was walking her dog in her back yard near her pond when a big gator tried to get her doggy & knocked her down & could not get her doggy instead grabbed her feet & drugged her in & drowned her my heart gets worried over them cases & so many other. God Bless u both u both are great love your & love Opal just subscribed

    One thing I did with puppies growing up was to yelp whenever they bit me, even if it wasn't hard. It's what puppies do to show their siblings the limit on biting. It worked pretty quickly. Just found ur channel. Sorry to hear about the poor family getting kicked out but a blessing in disguise for y'all to get Opal. Congrats.

    Kinda late but for anyone wondering the soft bump is probably leftover from the umbilical cord. Possibly an umbilical hernia just like an outie belly button on a human 😂 she’s beautiful we just got a rescue puppy too… he never stops but it’s worth it!

    She's definitely a chihuahua and eventually those ears will stand straight up. When she bites just figure out a command word that doesn't involve the word "no" and put a toy straight into her mouth so she bites on that. Being consistent is the key.

    She is absolutely adorable 🥰 Puppies are a lot of work and usually aren’t able to be housebroken until 4mos so putting her on a puppy pad during the night will help if you don’t want to take her outside. Once she is old enough to hold it all night taking her out every 2hrs during the day should keep the accidents from happening. Enjoy her she will bring so much joy to you both!❤❤❤

      One hint for training. I put the pads where my dog makes his pee mistakes. I clean the spot and put the pad there. If you can anyway. Also when she sits naturally you can say, sit, good sit. and teach her to stay. That's an important command for her safety.❤

    Chiweenie dachshund and Chihuahua half and half. Smart dogs. Easy to talk to and train. I have one from a local rescue. I got him on puppy pads the first day but take him out about four times a day anyway. Don't forget to wash her teeth everyday. Get her used to that. Putting a dental wipe on your finger is usually pretty gentle. They're bred too small and if you don't clean their teeth with a wipe every day their teeth just rot. She'll be a joy! Great small dogs. Cinco de mayo is the official day celebrating Chihuahuas in Mexico. I gave that as my rescue's birthday since we didn't know.❤

    She looks like a Deer Head Chihuahua and she also looks like she may have a hernia. The vet will let you know all that stuff. I am just giving you my opinion.
    Opal is absolutely adorable and you will enjoy her for a very long time.
    Oh and if she is a Chihuahua our last one lived until she was 19 years old. Our Chihuahua now, Winnie the Pooh, is 7 years old. They are the best dogs!
    Love to y’all 💛❤️🍯🐝

  • @suzannehughes8697
    @suzannehughes8697 8 місяців тому +1

    The retractable lead will encourage pulling on the lead, because puppies think they can just run on ahead of you, they have to learn to walk beside you when walking, also they are pretty dangerous, because sometimes you can't snap them shut quick enough when you need to, get an ordinary lead to which you attach a piece of rope or cord when running free, Opal is pretty gorgeous by the way, she's lucky that you found her, she'll be a lovely dog, the nipping may be because she is teething, try buying her some chew sticks or toys that she can bite, her little teeth may be hurting her like a baby teething xxx

      NO to CRATE TRAINING! IT’S CRUEL! DOGS NEVER USED TO BE SHUT IN CRATES. CRATES CAME ABOUT BECAUSE PEOPLE WANTED A DOG BUT DIDN’T HAVE TIME FOR THE DOG. THE DOG WOULD DEFECATE IN THE HOUSE/APARTMENT WHILE THE OWNER WAS AT WORK. THE OWNER DIDN’T LIKE THIS, THUS THEY SHUT THEIR DOG IN A CAGE. IT IS A CAGE NOT A CRATE.

    Definitely crate training and I would suggest getting a regular collar (vs the harness style, although she is a bit tiny) because I have seen that it’s easier to train them not to pull.
