Occasionally we have puppies available to loving pet homes. Our babies are raised in our home and we are selective about their adoptions. They are sold as companion pets on a spay/neuter agreement with an

Your baby begins their life here with us in our bedroom. This provides a quiet place for a new Momma and their babies to rest and recover. I have cameras on the pens so that I can check on them at any time.
The babies are born in our room and stay here until they are about 5 weeks old. At this time they and their Momma are moved into our dog room so that they can have more space and begin the additional feeding process.

And what about size?
Ok lets clear this up, the "Shih Tzu Breed Standard" says that they are to be no less than 9 pounds and no more than 16 pounds. The "Breed Standard" is a detailed description of the traits that are correct for a specific breed. Some times folks are getting the "Breed Standard" confused with a Standard size. That reference is used in some breeds i.e. Poodles. They have a large size of that breed in their Breed Standard that is call a Standard Poodle etc.
Shih Tzu only have 1 size classification. They are Shih Tzu. They do not come in toy, imperial, or standard sizes according to their Breed Standard. They are classified as a Toy breed, but that is not used as a description for size but as a description for the Group they are shown in. While occasionally you can produce a dog that is smaller, even when breeding correctly by the breed standard guidelines, it just means that genetically that has occurred. The very same way that you can have several generations of 6 foot tall folks in your family and then have some one that is 5 feet tall. Respectable breeders follow the Breed Standard that is provided by the Parent breed Club as a proper guideline to ensure that the breed maintains its qualities. Every AKC registered breed has a specific Breed Standard and a Parent Club for their individual breed. Our Parent Club is the American Shih Tzu Club ) shihtzu.org
