Good for you

I have about 280 lbs of dogs, hair, dander, chewed shoes, slobber and feel Blessed !

As a foster home for four leggeds, I`ve had my share of bites yet each little fur face wagging it`s tail, gazing imploring at me wipes the memory away.

There are definately teqnique's to use with puppys. I think if you do a search on yahoo, like for exampe " training a puppy" you will probably come up with some help.
Dogs basically go by the pecking order. You have to establish that you / or whomever is the leader so the dog will respect that.
I have one dog who does not place me first in the power chain. He sees my husb. as that. My other dog does though and he will do what i tell him to do. Hes my dear friend but he did bite me once too. I think it was a revenge bite. But.. thats another topic.

P.S. I love that dog in the pic. Sooo cute.

Puppies are a LOT of work, however, how much work could a Chihuahau be?

Leo Rising

You like to be the center of attention, to appear strong, confident and dominant, even if something is bothering you.

You like to be the leader, and you can be a good one as long as you remember that leadership is a responsibility as well as power and privilege.

You can be stubborn, especially if your pride is involved. You are idealistic, and people have to prove to you that they have integrity.

You like to have rich and elegant things that you can show off to others. But remember that just because something impresses people, it is not necessarily good. You need to learn the difference.

Others may or may not see you as beautiful or handsome, but as you grow up you will develop a regal bearing that will make others feel that you are dependable. Many people will like you, and most will also respect you.

Sun in Taurus

You are very patient and like to do things slowly so that you can see what is really happening.

You like to be comfortable. With your love of comfort and ease, you may try to avoid strenuous situations, but you really need such experiences to help you mature.

People will probably like you because you are affectionate; you give and receive love easily. However, if others try to take advantage of your placidity, they will quickly discover that when you are roused to anger, you don't calm down easily.

You find it difficult to work for abstract goals. You don't mind working a long time for the results you want, but you have to understand and relate to those results.

Sun in the Tenth House

You are a person who wants to make great achievements in the world and to be in control of your own destiny. You find it difficult to follow someone else's orders unless you really respect that person. If you apply yourself to your work, you will accomplish a great deal.

However, while you are young, these traits will make it difficult for you to accept other people's authority.

Your relationship with your father is very important. You will be greatly influenced by his ways, although you will occasionally disagree with him and try to rebel.

You want to know what the world is about, what is important in the public eye and what is generally considered significant. Among people of your own age, you will try to be a leader, and your peers will look up to you.

Moon in Sagittarius

You are an idealist who wants the world to be grand and good and beautiful. You want people to be good and noble and are very disappointed when they are not.

You are so concerned with the important things in life that sometimes you forget about little matters that really have to be done. You are very independent and resent anyone who tries to keep you from doing what you want.

You are optimistic and cheerful, and you can't stay sad for very long. Usually you feel good about life, and you try to make others around you feel that way also. People will like you for this.

When you are an adult, you will be interested in any subject that teaches you more about the universe and your place in it.

Moon in the Fifth House

You express yourself through your feelings, which are very strong and vigorous.

You really love good times, and for entertainment you enjoy plays, stories and television programs that appeal to your emotions.

You don't make any pretense about your strong dislikes and likes. It is important to you to be honest about your emotions.

Sometimes, in a mood of joyous high spirits, you may take risks that are really quite foolish. Also you may sometimes get carried away by your feelings, which can be difficult for others to handle.

Venus in Gemini

You like to meet many people and have as many friends as possible, for you love variety. The more people you know, the less bored you are, so you act quite friendly and open.

You express yourself in a lively way, and others will probably enjoy your humor and interesting wit.

This position of Venus means that you will be interested in art and poetry when you are older.

Although you like to know a lot of different people, you are not interested in getting close to them or involved in their lives. It may be hard for you to form a deep attachment to someone.

Venus in the Eleventh House

You are a very sociable person who really enjoys good company and good times. You are at your best in a group, and you are an excellent team player in any activity you get involved in.

You like to be with friends who are warm and sociable.

Whoever your friends are, you are likely to enjoy them. Throughout your life, friendship should be a source of pleasure and fun.

Mars in Pisces

You are quite sensitive, and if you aren't feeling cheerful, you don't have much energy.

It is difficult for you to be very self-assertive. You may let people take advantage of you because you are unsure that you are justified in going ahead with your own plans. You may shrink from people who are domineering, which may make you either ignore their actions or try to get around them secretly. This last tendency should be watched very carefully. If you try to get away with acting behind other people's backs, you will gradually undermine their confidence in you.

As you get older and more sure of yourself, you will be able to act more unselfishly and do things for others with less consideration for yourself.

This is not to say that you cannot be successful; you have as much potential for success as anyone.

Mars in the Ninth House

You are strongly attached to your own point of view, and if challenged, you will fight very hard for your opinions. You are much more likely to fight for an ideal than for yourself. On one hand, you can be quite self-righteous and narrowly fanatical about your beliefs, but you can also be courageous in defending the rights of those who are downtrodden.

You don't get involved just at the mental level; you act on your beliefs. Try not to get so wrapped up in your own views that you won't even consider someone else's.

As you get older, you may want to travel around and see quite a bit of the world, which would be a good experience for you.
