Wir haben einen Lhasa / Shih Tzu Mix , er geht da auch nicht rein. Wenn wir aber am Meer sind geht er sofort ins Wasser 😂 vielleicht, liegt es auch an ihren kurzen Beinchen 😃
We dog-sat a shih tzu that was, shall we say, a bit clumsy. A day after we bathed it, it walked right up to our little pond and fell right in. The pool is very shallow, so no worries about drowning. I was tending to another dog and didn't realize at first what happened until I saw a white puff of hair move back and forth in the pool. The shih tzu was too short-legged to get out of the pool, so I had to pick it up and my wife gave it an impromptu shower to rinse off the grind. Then, we let both dogs play a bit in the yard while I read a book outdoors. Literally minutes later, I heard a splash! The shih tzu had fallen in...again! So I fetched it out, we gave it the 3rd bathing in 2 days, and I put spare fencing over the pool to prevent further drenching.
I Love Shih Tzu's, I have one but they absolutely cannot swim. Mine fell into a pool and sank immediately to the bottom, I jumped in to rescue her. Their noses are to close to their faces to keep their head above water without inhaling water
Lol they are so cute
Just like my Shih Tzu, dumber than a box of rocks, but full of love. 🤟

All the Shih Tzus I have had can swim for short distances, have to keep an eye on them though.
