Shih Tzu puppy in your house

One of the most "special" little dog breeds is Shih Tzu. We see them often in the dog shows and we are always surprised how can they move with this so long fur.

Interesting is the origin of the breed. They come surely from Lhasa Apso and Pekinese dogs. The texts tell about Shih Tzu first time in 1643, when Dalai Lama gave them as a gift to the Chinese Emperor. For the first time they come in Europe in 1930 when Lady Brauning took them in England.

Shih Tzu are very active and indipendent. They like to be in the center of attention very much. They are gay, gentle and kind. But they hate solitude and suffer it very much. That is why their character needs persevering soft training. Other peculiarity of these dogs is that they don't like heat.

If you look for Shih Tzu puppies for sale, you have to understand, that these dogs need special treatment every day. You have gently brush them and take away hairs from the eyes. This last is particularly important because you can prevent different problems if you take care about your dog's eyes.

From the first day when you take your Shih Tzu puppy home, you have to train it to stand all the cures. The best way is to do all manipulations every day even if the puppy don't needs some of them. It will know this is it's routine and you will never have problems with it's care.

Ah? Do you know, I was always afraid to take these little breeds because I think they need too much attention and are too possessive. Maybe I'm not right.

Oh!
I was never a fan until my Mother rescued one years ago...the dog passed this year and she just got a new Baby Shih Tzu.
I'm so in LOVE with them now.
PLUS, I'm NOT allergic to them since they have hair and not fur!

I did not know, that they do not provoke allergy. It's a good notice!
