And they are all three great little furnaces. Fleas I can’t help with, I don’t have them. Fortunately they can’t live very long at the altitude I’m at. I’ve been here about 25 years and have seen maybe a dozen fleas in that time, all on fosters coming in and gone quickly. Mine go outside 5-6 times a day and none of them make it through the night. They’re pretty good about keeping it on the papers at night.

Why do Chi's lick so much? Trooper wants to lick our face ALL the time! Especially my son's face. 2. Trooper feels very warm, almost like he's running a fever or something, but he's not. Are Chi's just HOT dogs? 3. FLEAS! I've never seen so many on a dog! Frontline didn't do a thing! My poodle doesn't have any but I'm constantly picking them off of Trooper. Are Chi's flea prone? 4. Do Chi's have bladder issues? Trooper seems to have to GO a LOT. He can't hold it longer than 3 hours or so during the day but he can at night for nearly 8 hours. He poops like 4-5 times a day. He's the poopinest, peeingest dog I've ever seen! I can't stay gone for very long (I crate him when I leave the house) or he will wet in his crate. Is this just because he's little or is this a "Chi" thing? Trooper is 19 weeks old. He is nearly housetrained (I've had him for 2 months) but does have an accident every couple of days next to the kitchen door where I let him outside. It usually happens at night when he gets the puppy crazies and then suddenly realizes he has "to go" and makes it to the door but can't hold it. No more accidents on the carpet, thank God! Lisa
