She's adorable. Her name is Akita and she's a three year old chihuahua / terrier mix. Thankfully, she looks more terrier than chihuahua. She's a pound puppy that was found as a stray. It seems as if she's already housetrained, which is pretty awesome.

Although this photo was taken the night before Akita arrived, it still pretty much sums up my cats reaction.

She's adorable! I am soooo an advocate for shelter/rescue adoptions. All I have to say is fix her fix her fix her fix herrrrrrr.

Was her name Akita before you got her? Interesting name since Akitas are a breed.

She was already fixed when we got her, luckily. She wasn't named Akita when we got her, but I did like the name. I liked 'Bandita' better but the boyfriend was not a fan.

She has white worms in her poops :[ Apparently not uncommon for dogs out of a pound, but we'll be taking her to the vet this week.

Awesome! Please train her well using positive reinforcement (treats for a properly performed command) and not negative punishment - and pleeeease don't ignore her. She will need attention throughout her life, not just a leash on a tree, which too many owners do these days.

cute dog...

name her what you want...he could have called her "Bandy" or something for short, lol

the worms are prolly tapeworm segments; no big deal. just make sure you wash your hands well after handling her...the usual. vet will fix her right up.

When you say negative punishment you probably mean positive punishment (applying an aversive stimulus in order to reduce a target behavior). Hitting or saying "no" are examples of positive punishment.

Negative punishment is removing a positive stimulus in order to reduce a target behavior. A good example of negative punishment would be to turn away/ignore the dog (remove attention) when it tries to jump up on you.

P.S. - cute pup
