I just became the proud owner of the cutest little Shih Tzu and opinions, help, from time to time will be deeply appreciated!

I'm NOT used to having such a small dog around the house!

Well I don't have a Shih Tzu but I do have a really small puppy, Lori, and I too am not used to one this small, Harley was a bit bigger when I got him, so I can relate!

I LOVE that pic of Harley and Lori is just so adorable! I LOVE the coloring! What breed is she?

aren't they great Lynn. congrats for you new baby. there are a few people that have a shi tzu i'm sure they'd love to help.
i have a Shi Tzu mix. well i found her and her owner didn't want her back. they bought her for their son for the new year (she was there for about 10 days) but he didn't take care of her. they also thought she was a Pekingese and as you know the breeds are very diffrent.
anyway people said she looks pure breed (even the vets who checked her out - maybe but i don't think so) so i did lot of reaserch into what she might be - if you need to know anything about Shi Tzu i'm here for you.
she's (2 years old) the most energetic loving dog i ever known. the first and almost only thing she wants to do is play. please post some pics of your new baby.
here is mine about a month after we got her.

I just got a 10 week old shih tzu and I think hes great. Ive always had big dogs and still have a big guy, but just wanted a little one for a change. He loves my big dog Cain, and Cain loves him. They get along great. The snorting is something to get used to, worries me sometimes???...anyone have the snorting problem??
