I have a one and a half year old Shih Tzu. She is in her second heat. Is she to young to breed?

how come my 9 month old puppy keeps scratching his ears?

I bought a puppy a few months back that was sold as a shih tzu. As she has matured; the pudgy little thing that she was has become sleek and muscular. Her hair is short over most of her body with the exception of tail and backs of her legs and chest. The face, head and back has straight hair that is short. Is this possible? I was under the impression that all shih tzu had long hair. Have I been had? Or is this little girl unique?

I have a 9 yr. old that has never been bread. Could anyone tell me how to get another good shitzu in my area?

I have a 7 month old Shih Tzu, and over the last month i have cut her meals down to once a day, however she is pilling the weight on, how much should i be feeding her ?

My dog is wonderful, but there is on occasion a man or two that he just doesn't like. I wonder if I should watch him around children. I have just moved to california and i worry he'll bite someone. I can't even begin to tell you how much I love my dog. He is so friendly with the family. I love him like I love my children!

Hi! We have this almost 1 yr old male shi tzu and are getting a 7 week female on august 6 and are gonna train her. When she's old enough we are going to breed them and was just wondering if you could give me all the information about the birthing state of her, like what do when she gets pregnant to when she has them. If u could help us it would be soooo much appreciated!!! Thank you.

I have an 11wk shih poo. I was told to feed up to 1/2 a cup a day. Her parents are only 6 and 7 lbs. She acts starving when I feed her twice a day but doesn't when I give her her rawhide or puppy treats. I'm used to large breeds. Is this normal?

I love my 7 month, male Shih Tzu, however, last week we found out he has a genetic birth defect. He is scheduled for a ulnectomy. can anyone tell me if they have experienced this problem and how it was treated????? thank you.

I just brought a 8week old shihtzu and i dont know how many times of day to feed him
