Shih Tzu Puppies

Shih-Tzu puppies are one of the oldest breeds in the world but also one of the most popular. Bred in Tibet for thousands of years, Shih-Tzu puppies are the quintessential lap dog. Less than twenty pounds and layered in thick, silky hair, Shih-Tzu puppies were once prized by royalty and lovingly known as the “little lion dogs”. Shih-Tzu puppies are affectionate companions and loving family pets. Like all dogs, however, there are some things you should know before you head out shopping for Shih-Tzu puppies for sale.

Shih-Tzu puppies are known to live long, happy and healthy lives when their owners care for and for them in the way they desire, i.e. endless pampering and affection. Shih-Tzu puppies think they are royalty and wish to be cared for as such. Shih-Tzu puppies become very attached to their owners and love to be spoiled. They prefer to be indoors and, while often docile and quiet, are also playful and spunky.

Due to their size and personality, Shih-Tzu puppies require extra care and attention during training, housebreaking and when socializing with other dogs. For this reason, a Shih-Tzu puppy may not be the best choice for first time dog owners - they need an owner who knows how to train and socialize the regal canines. This is a clever breed that learns quickly and is a joy to train. Don’t forget grooming. If you want your Shih-Tzu to look its best, then you have to bring them into the groomer on a regular basis.
