Meet My Shih Tzu Family

My Breeding Philosophy

I spent years researching bloodlines, connecting with ethical breeders, and learning everything I could about responsible breeding practices. This isn't just a business for me - it's a calling to preserve and improve this wonderful breed while ensuring every puppy finds the perfect forever home.

As a "dog mom" first and breeder second, I believe in:

  • Quality over quantity - Small, carefully planned litters

  • Health first - Comprehensive testing and veterinary care

  • Socialization matters - Early exposure to family life

  • Lifelong commitment - Supporting families throughout their dog's life

Remembering Beau

My journey with Shih Tzus began with one very special boy named Beau. He was my shadow, my confidant, and my introduction to just how incredible this breed could be. Beau had that perfect Shih Tzu personality - gentle yet spirited, loving but independent, and always ready with that characteristic Shih Tzu charm.

When I lost Beau, I felt a void that only another Shih Tzu could fill. But instead of just getting another pet, I felt called to honor his memory by dedicating myself to breeding healthy, well-socialized Shih Tzus that could bring the same joy to other families that he brought to mine.
