Be honest, You Believe "Shih Tzu" is really a Goofy Reputation For your dog Too, Not?
The very first time I heard the name "Shih Tzu" I had been already attending college.
I figured the man was kidding!
I am talking about... "Seriously, man! There is a dog known as a..." Well guess what happens I figured he stated.
See, I am in the hillsides of Kentucky. Nobody in the united states, a minimum of not in those days, once the country was still being country, owned a Chinese Lion Dog. Or other little "lap dog." German Shepherds, Saint Bernards, Beagles and Mutts -- that is what we'd.
But, I found that day that, yes, there's a genuine dog known as a Shih Tzu.
Okay, almost real. This isn't your dog. It is a tiara with fur.
But nevertheless, here's what you ought to know:
Personality
Shih Tzus are great for families with kids, other creatures or individuals living in small apartments. They can be happy, outgoing and affectionate. They respond well to training.
Appearance and Grooming Needs
The valuable little darlings stand about eight to ten inches tall and weight about over a sneeze. They love 12 to 14 years.
There is a double coat that's lengthy and dense. Some jackets possess a slight wave. Some crazy city fold tie your hair around the mind track of a bow. This could let the dog to determine better which help prevent eye infections -- but we all know they are just attempting to be cute.
Their silly little tail curls up other their back.
They ought to be brushed and groomed daily to avoid severe matting. Yeah, that will review well within my hometown. Say no to.
The ASPCA recommends that you simply get yourself a Shih Tzu (if you would like among the darn things) from the trustworthy dealer as there is a whole listing of breed-related health issues -- too many to enter here.
Best of luck.
