They are very smart and loyal to their owner's. Mine boy is older than the other one....they believe that they are brother and sister. Not a mom of his future kid's.
I just got my baby 2 months ago, she turned 3 months on may 2nd. I love her so much, she brings me so much joy! I'm a new dog mommy and your video helped me so much, thank you!
My Shih Tzu passed away just 2 days ago at only 3 years of age. We are shattered and heartbroken. Now I am looking at videos of other dogs that look like her. I miss her so much. I have never felt so lonely and sad. There is nobody to greet us at the door. Nobody to wag her tail and take naps with us. I don't know if I could ever get another dog again. She had kidney failure and possibly cancer. We spent over 8k to save her but there was no hope and we had to put her to sleep. I would have spent all my money to save my baby. May God give us peace during this difficult time 😭😭🙏🏻
I am so sorry for your loss! Please don't deny yourself the joy of owning another dog. Wait a few months. Get another dog! The new one will help you get over the heartbreak of losing your beloved dog! ❤️❤️❤️
I had 2, My little Apple passed away about a month ago and my heart broke😞. I miss her terribly,but I still have her brother and we comfort each other!
If you own a Shih Tzu you have a truly priceless friend. I treat my beautiful boy as l do my children, and the love he returns is so therapeutic and rewarding.l treat him as l do my human family, if unsure of any treatment or problems, ask a Professional. Never assume that you know best. My dogs over the last 53 years have reached 13 to 15 years, sadly lost the 13 yr olds to Cancer. Works both ways, l am now 84 and contribute my longevity to my Human and Animal Love. You have to 'Give' to 'Return'.❤
That's beautiful! It's heartwarming to hear that your dogs have brought you joy over the years, and your love for both humans and animals has contributed to your longevity. Giving love and receiving love in return is truly special. ❤
I miss my sweet Sammy boy everyday. Hard to get America shitzu in the United Kingdom. Be some how we where blessed with one. Hard not pamper them . He was the best dog we ever had. It's very hard not to pamper them.
God bless your heart ❤️ 💙 💜 Loving furbabies back ❤️ 💙 💜 is a gift 🎁 granted by God ✝️ loyal to the end, reminding 🙏 ❤️ 💙 us of Jesus' love for us all. Thank You, God, for loving us so much, You gave Your Only Son. That we who believe Your Son Jesus died for our sins, was buried and resurrected on the Third Day, that we, through faith, may have everlasting life. In Jesus' Mighty Holy Name, we pray. Amen 🙏 ✝️ 🕊 #HaveABlessedEaster
Ive gotten my shithzu when she was 6 months old,and she is PERFECT POTTY TRAINING was so easy.She is going to be 4 yrs old in Jan 2024.My mom passed away and i named her after my mom.She is SO GOOD everyone says i was Blessed with her.
My greatest inheritance from my late mother is Josie, a Shih-Tzu/Bichon Frisee cross. I was handyman/ caretaker living with my mom when she got Josie at 10 weeks. She will be 3, on April 28 3923. So we have been together all her life. Her sleep patterns have steadily evolved since we moved back to my apartment, Jan 1, 2022. She now frequently sleeps next to or under the bed at bedtime. But when I wake in the morning she is ALWAYS beside me or in her pink "princess" bed which I keep on my bed. I already knew I was allergic to hair/fur, pollen, mold, dust. But I have years ago become desensitized to fig or cat hair Outside of Josie, and a cat, decades ago, I have always slept alone. So no problemo there. I do hear Josie sometimes barking in her sleep. It is more of a yip ... yip, not loud enough to wake me if I am asleep. She sometimes wakes me to ask to go out for a potty or poop break. Kinda annoying between 4 and 6 am, but at least she is finally house broken. (Seen many Shih-Tzu videos, they all agree that Shih-Tzu are stubborn and hard to house break) All in all, it is pure joy to wake in the morning and find my "darling doggie" Josie in bed with me.
I have one male pure Shih-Tzu, one female Shih-Tzu/Bichon Frise aka Teddy Bear, one daughter Teddy Bear, one son Teddy Bear. They are the best cross breed!
My girl " Noel" used to wake me up way to early for poop or pee so I always give her a late potty break between 7 and 9 pm . Now she doesn't wake me up
I love your videos I just lost my shu shi Paris, she lived to the age of 22 years old which was such a blessing, we miss her so much. We have another shi shu his name is oreo like the cookie because of his color black and white he`s 21 years old we have truly been bless to have had them this long only blessings , from god! We bought another shi shu her name is daisy we call her crazy daisy lol she`s such a bleesing to our family and a bleesing for our dog oreo he`s so happy to know he has a friend he can count on.
Thanks for these tips 😃!! I’m a Basenji owner for many years now ❤️.Time to add a new member to our flock 🐾🐾 Picking up our little Shipoo puppy in a week from now ✨🐾❤️🐶❤️🐾✨Can hardly wait😉!!
I have had my AKC Shih Tzu, Teddy, since he was a puppy and he is now 16 1/2! He is my third Shih Tzu. My first, Tiffany, I had since I was 21. She had 1 litter of 4 fluff balls! We kept her daughter, Angel. Tiffany lived for over 16 years! Her daughter didn’t live more than a year after Tiffany as she died due to congestive heart failure and I believe a broken heart as she had spent her whole life with her mom!!!❤ I also had an imperial (tiny) Shih Tzu, Gia. She died at age 8 a few days after the vet gave her the annual vacillations. She had an enlarged heart. I now am afraid of vaccinations for my fur babies!!
I feel the same way for my Shih Tzu, he was diagnosed in 2020 with a heart murmur and I now worry tremendously about all vaccines. Good Luck to you & your Fur Babies!!
@marilynprovino: We lost my mom's first Shih-Tzu cross, Tori, at 7 years. She had a blown out heart valve and an enlarged heart. She started having what appeared to be seizures after running. She was fine walking but after just running the length of the living room and back, fetching a toy, her back legs would collapse and she looked like she was having an epileptic fit. A friend of my mom knew of a dog who had a similar problem and said it had been heart related. Our vet found that during these episodes Tori had no femoral pulse in either back leg. The bad valve prevented her heart from supplying enough blood flow for vigorous activity. My mom asked for a prognosis. The vet said, "Well, she could go another year, or drop dead next week" Tori was only 5. I was recovering from hypo-thyroidism so I had started a walking program to rebuild after 6 weeks in bed. Since Tori was fine walking, I began taking her along. Every day we walked a couple 3 miles. Tori was my walking partner for 2 years before she was obviously failing. When we finally took her to the vet to let her go, the vet said when she gave us the diagnosis, of a year or next week she thought Tori only had a few months. She couldn't believe Tori made it over 2 more years. She credited my walking her for allowing Tori,(and us) to have another 2 years.
LOL 2:08 - No I don't yell at my lil Shih-Tzu (Sadie). But I will raise my voice, and it doesn't really scare her and she will argue with me - by barking at me. LOL She's incredible.
The Shih Tzu, is a toy dog breed originating from Northern East, India 🇮🇳, Tibet and believed to be bred from the Pekingese and the Lhasa Apso. Shih Tzus are known for their short snouts and large round eyes, as well as their long coat, floppy ears, and short and stout posture. They are well known for their playful personality and their calm and friendly temperament. They can adapt well to different situations. Due to their highly independent nature, they are not considered the most obedient breed.
Mine is a climber...was remodeling the house and one day the pup climbed the ladder up into the attic with me..then climbed down again..and up.. started taking him out hiking and doing simple rock/slope climbs..he loves it. Now I have a ladder with a safety net and soft mat below so he/we can do this together each day. On long hikes he gets tired and I carry him some like a baby..very big personality in a small package..just remember...very delicate tiny puppy, even when they try to show off, you need to protect them from their adventurous nature
@@animalsmartland also some shitzus can escape the neck collar, when i didnt knew about this reason i used neck collar, my shitzu escaped from it so i changed it
100% agree. No neck collar! Get a harness which does not pull on their neck. Also no walks in the heat, even moderate heat, they are very sensitive to heat.
I have yelled at my Shi but not physical harm. But I know not to I work on that! All the info was great! I love to give my Shi scraps but very small amount, try to not do that so much. Thanks again! Oh, I have left my Shi for 3 hours but surround him with toys food water and treat toys in master bedroom. He has learned I do come back. Maybe cover on that more.
My shitzu doesn’t mind the cold at all. Although I still put a jacket on him when it really cold, 20 degrees or below. He doesn’t tolerate the heat well at all though.
We had two Shih-tzu. They passed away at the age of 1 at the age of 16). Or second passed away at the age of 12. They were not brothers. Or came from the same family. They had gum disease even though we brushed their teeth. Both dogs eventually had to have all their teeth removed. We believe that because of the teeth extractions that this caused further health problems, which caused their death. Our second dog, a shih-tzu, we discovered his teeth were growing inside of his gums. Which is why they had to be removed. He died in our arms. It was a terrible loss to us. Losing both dogs in one year was devastating.
Due to his anger issue, he gave one more setback back to back, he suddenly divorced me! He made such conditions forcefully, that unwillingly I had to give him divorce! Divorce was yesterday only.
We got our dog in Jan a friend passed away his wife couldn’t care from him. We became 3rd owners. Well other 2 owners were male so ours took up with my husband. He whines for him when he’s not around. Even when my husband goes to bathroom it’s cute. My husband never wanted a dog now that dog gets more love and attention than I do.
It's heartwarming how your Shih Tzu found a special bond with your husband, even following him to the bathroom. Dogs have a unique way of forming strong connections. Enjoy the love and companionship your furry friend brings! 🐶❤️
Be very careful using tick and flea medicine. The wrong kind can kill them. We just lost our baby due to that, she was perfectly healthy, then suddenly she was gone
My Shih Tzu Nixie is like this: I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me and everywhere that I would go my shadow follows me. My version of the poem My Shadow, describes my little buddy very very well.
Yes, Zachary is my Shadow. He sticks to me like Velcro, I don’t mind. I wouldn’t trade him for anything. He tells me when it’s time to wake up, eat, bathe, and go back to sleep.
Nixie sounds like a wonderful companion, always by your side just like a loyal shadow. Your version of the poem perfectly captures your special bond. 🐾❤️
@@animalsmartland Thank you, she has given me so much joy that I am still amazed. Next moth I am getting another one to keep her company so she can have someone to run and play with the way I can't anymore. Now I just hope she likes him and won't be too jealous.
11. Never call them a "shit tzu." When I was a kid our family a piano tuner asked if our shih tzu was "one of them shit tzus?" She screwed up her face and glared at the man with a look that could kill.
I have to hand feed my Shih Tzu. He will eat when I sit down with him. I feed him a can of food twice a day, and he always has fresh hard food and water. Soft food I put out twice a day.
Can you suggest me a home remedy for my pomeranian dog itching and lickingher body n also scratching so badly. Skin is become bare vet medicines didn't work pls help my dog
All you have to do is take them outside every 2 hours until they learn. I potty trained my by the time he was 14 weeks old. Consistency and use a timer.
The so called animal's have a six sence. I had never been bit by any and I'm barely 5 feet tall. .and before my little one's I had Rottweiler..and Mami was always firth
I have a female who is 8 months and chews on everything. I try and replace a toy for her to chew and she just goes back! She definitely has a mind of her own. Would like some ideas on how to get her from chewing. She has an overbite which the doc says is normal for some shituz😢cute as can be but her nick name is fang!😮
Having difficulty with potty training and biting is not uncommon, especially with young puppies. It requires patience and consistent training. Consider seeking guidance from a professional dog trainer or behaviorist who can provide specific techniques and advice tailored to your Shih Tzus' needs. With proper training and positive reinforcement, you can help them learn and develop good habits. Don't get discouraged, and keep working with them. Good luck! 🙂
Some people think I am crazy, but I talk to my shih tzu just as I did my wonderful daughter! A few minutes before going outside to potty I ask her if she needs to pp or poo! By the time I have leashed her and we are ready to go out I mention her business again! When we get outside she knows exactly why she is out there! My sister kid me and asks if she poos on demand? I usually say yes, cause she knows what she supposed to do! Talk to your dogs, they understand much more than we give them credit for! I always praise her and sometimes give her a treat when we come back in! Love my Scarlett!
about 1- i am in a college on another city, my shitzu is atached to me and miss me, i can only go back to home once or twice a month for 2 days each time as long as there is no holiday
My baby is 11yrs old. I pray I will have her at 20yrs old! She is my lifeline! Sorry, I didn't find this video helpful. Would love to communicate with others that's had longevity. Was on a shih tzu forum years ago can't find it. To all the Pet lovers, they are our babies, same as a new born infant!!
Guys to all shihtzu owners did you spay or neuter them ? My Tom is 7 and I donot know what is the best decision for the owners with senior dogs did you neuter them
My friend put rubber bands on her dogs ears to be cute, and the next morning they had to amputate the ear flaps where they were tied with rubber bands due to lack of circulation…. I bring this up because halfway through this video there is a Shih Tzu in a stroller who had their ears tied…

Stimmt nicht alles ! Habe selber einen und einiges stimmt nicht ! Sie sind gut sozialisiert mögen Kinder Katzen und sind sehr Menschenfreundlich neugierig , verspielt und man kann sie überall mitnehmen ! Durch ihr freundliches Wesen ,wickeln sie einem schnell ums Pfötchen aber weder verfressen noch zu dick weil sie sehr beweglich sind auch sehr schnell Stubenrein und bei vernünftiger Pflege sehr gut zu händeln ! Ausser Impfungen Wurmkur Zeckenschutz hatte ich keine grossartigen Tierarztkosten . Hoffe das es so bleibt und wir noch eine schöne Zeit zusammen haben ! ❤❤❤😂😂
I have 2 shitzus a 1yr old Boy Ryder and a 5 month old girl Sky. They are both very good babies and have a lot of personality, Energy and is very smart to. I’m not sure why they have a problem with Potty training which my Ryder is potty trained and my puppy is potty trained to a certain extent Now Ryder is pissing in the house and Sky what tricks are out there for me to use to get my puppies to where I can leave them out with no worries and not worry about them being Bad and pissing in my house right in front of use like they don’t care.
It's great that you have two Shih Tzus with distinct personalities and energy levels! Regarding potty training, consistency is key. Keep reinforcing their training and try using positive reinforcement techniques. Consider crate training and schedule regular potty breaks outside. With patience, they'll improve over time. 🙂
*Thanks for your video. It was on time. I have a 6 year old shih tzu. I work, and he has to stay inside the house. Now, all of a sudden, he's chewing around the bedroom doors trying to get in, he jumped in my bed and urinated. Suddenly, he is destroying my inside doors. 🚪 I had to leave him in his kennel today, until I can think of something else. He never done this before. He used to be looking out the window when I get home from work. I will miss that today.😢*
Perhaps a crate is a great solution. It saves you money and at the kennel they're usually left in a kennel most of the time (unlike day care which is more about socialization). You coukd also consider daycare and taking your dog there from time to time. Nice walks would also go a long way.
Don’t forget to give them bones ( that are safe) or really good dog chews that are not raw Hyde. That will keep your dog busy and away from chewing other things

When your dog approaches 10 yrs old, no jumping or stairs/steps. They develop back injuries when they age

Did you spay/neuter your shih tzu?
My shitzu is 14 years old and still in great health; he will probably live till 18 or more
That's a brilliant age to reach! I've just lost mine at just 4 from multicentric lymphoma. I will get another soon.

Love my little boy! Maybe 10yrs old! Owned him for 8. I cook for him give vitamins, regular check ups, clean eyes always etc. 💗💗💗💗
Mine is a climber...was remodeling the house and one day the pup climbed the ladder up into the attic with me..then climbed down again..and up.. started taking him out hiking and doing simple rock/slope climbs..he loves it.

On long hikes he gets tired and I carry him some like a baby..very big personality in a small package..just remember...very delicate tiny puppy, even when they try to show off, you need to protect them from their adventurous nature
Are you serious about climbing the ladder😅?
Add don’t use a neck collar, use a harness. Their necks can be easily broken with using only a neck collar!
That's great advice! Indeed, using a neck collar on a Shih Tzu can pose a risk of breaking their delicate necks.
Yes. It’s best to use a body harness. It’s much safer
@@animalsmartland also some shitzus can escape the neck collar, when i didnt knew about this reason i used neck collar, my shitzu escaped from it so i changed it
Who would ever use a neck collar on a Shi Tzu?? Thats a crime!
100% agree. No neck collar! Get a harness which does not pull on their neck. Also no walks in the heat, even moderate heat, they are very sensitive to heat.

It's good that you're aware of avoiding physical harm and are working on your approach. Thanks for the feedback and additional details! ❤
How could anybody physically harm a lovely Shih Tzu ? ☹️
Watch what you feed from human food, some are poison to dogs!!!!
adorable shih thanks for the video i really find it informative and helpful mabuhay from Philippines
My shitzu doesn’t mind the cold at all. Although I still put a jacket on him when it really cold, 20 degrees or below. He doesn’t tolerate the heat well at all though.

6mo that's too young. What happen?
I love dogs ❤

Yes, Zachary is my Shadow. He sticks to me like Velcro, I don’t mind. I wouldn’t trade him for anything. He tells me when it’s time to wake up, eat, bathe, and go back to sleep.
Nixie sounds like a wonderful companion, always by your side just like a loyal shadow. Your version of the poem perfectly captures your special bond. 🐾❤️
@@animalsmartland Thank you, she has given me so much joy that I am still amazed. Next moth I am getting another one to keep her company so she can have someone to run and play with the way I can't anymore. Now I just hope she likes him and won't be too jealous.
To be onest I don't do any of this and my dog acts perfect

11. Never call them a "shit tzu." When I was a kid our family a piano tuner asked if our shih tzu was "one of them shit tzus?" She screwed up her face and glared at the man with a look that could kill.
Thank you for this helpful tips. I had a new one name TOGI. He is very smart.
You're welcome! Congrats on Togi. It's great to hear he's smart and I hope the tips are helpful. 🐶🌟
I have to hand feed my Shih Tzu. He will eat when I sit down with him.

@@pokxx8572mine right now! My baby girl is so sassy and stubborn 🥹😫
All you have to do is take them outside every 2 hours until they learn. I potty trained my by the time he was 14 weeks old. Consistency and use a timer.
Yes
Lot's of loved, but they are very smart i always lived a monitored home environment..so they feel that I haven't abandoned them ❤❤❤❤
Your approach of providing lots of love and a monitored home environment is paying off - they feel secure and not abandoned. ❤️

Pwede b liguan ang sitzu n buntid
I have a female who is 8 months and chews on everything. I try and replace a toy for her to chew and she just goes back! She definitely has a mind of her own. Would like some ideas on how to get her from chewing. She has an overbite which the doc says is normal for some shituz😢cute as can be but her nick name is fang!😮
I'm about to get a shih tzu puppy so thank you
You're welcome! Best of luck with your new Shih Tzu puppy. Enjoy the journey ahead! 🐶🌟
I am to .in 6 weeks and 2 days and I can't wait
My husband got our girls and I one for V-Day. We named him Romyeo and absolutely love him❤
That's wonderful! Your husband's gift of Romyeo for Valentine's Day sounds lovely, and it's great that you all adore him. ❤️

You forgot "Keep benadryl handy because these things are allergic to every airborne allergen" 😅
Yeap, but you can help that by cooking quality foods for them if possible. 👍🏽
Got one,t aking care now.
yes he is
What is a high quality dog food ?
You should pull on their leg tail or head hard idpf you picking them up gently slide your hands under neath them and pick them up❤
I have 2 shih tzu .they are 4 months old and I am unable to potty trained and restrain from biting. Is it unusual ?
Having difficulty with potty training and biting is not uncommon, especially with young puppies. It requires patience and consistent training. Consider seeking guidance from a professional dog trainer or behaviorist who can provide specific techniques and advice tailored to your Shih Tzus' needs. With proper training and positive reinforcement, you can help them learn and develop good habits. Don't get discouraged, and keep working with them. Good luck! 🙂
Some people think I am crazy, but I talk to my shih tzu just as I did my wonderful daughter! A few minutes before going outside to potty I ask her if she needs to pp or poo! By the time I have leashed her and we are ready to go out I mention her business again! When we get outside she knows exactly why she is out there! My sister kid me and asks if she poos on demand? I usually say yes, cause she knows what she supposed to do! Talk to your dogs, they understand much more than we give them credit for! I always praise her and sometimes give her a treat when we come back in! Love my Scarlett!
about 1- i am in a college on another city, my shitzu is atached to me and miss me, i can only go back to home once or twice a month for 2 days each time as long as there is no holiday
Very helpful
Thank you very much! 🙂
My Shi tzu is a family member. At 15 she lost an eye and has had several surgeries. I expect her to live longer than me.
Yes
Share food which we can gave to shizu
My baby is 11yrs old. I pray I will have her at 20yrs old! She is my lifeline! Sorry, I didn't find this video helpful. Would love to communicate with others that's had longevity. Was on a shih tzu forum years ago can't find it. To all the Pet lovers, they are our babies, same as a new born infant!!
Did you spay or neuter your shihtzu ?
How long is long enough for separation anxiety for shihtzu?
The duration for separation anxiety in Shih Tzus can vary, but consistent training and gradual desensitization can help alleviate it over time. 🙂
My baby is 13. No one believes she is that old. Regular vet, care, regular grooming, toothbrushing and loving.❤
Did you neuter or spay your baby ?
Love n miss my little koko😢👏👍
Guys to all shihtzu owners did you spay or neuter them ? My Tom is 7 and I donot know what is the best decision for the owners with senior dogs did you neuter them
can i ask for help of the dog i found?
Teeth issues on Older adopted Shih-Tzu...Liquid plaque removal?
So sorry. I can't imagine that happening to mine. ❤
My shitzu has separation anxiety how can I help him
Dont leave it alone for more than 5 hours. Consider resteraunt work .
Get him a companion! Sounds like more trouble but they will keep each other busy
My friend put rubber bands on her dogs ears to be cute, and the next morning they had to amputate the ear flaps where they were tied with rubber bands due to lack of circulation…. I bring this up because halfway through this video there is a Shih Tzu in a stroller who had their ears tied…
The Shih Tzu, is a toy dog breed originating from Northern East, India 🇮🇳, Tibet and believed to be bred from the Pekingese and the Lhasa Apso.
Shih Tzus are known for their short snouts and large round eyes, as well as their long coat, floppy ears, and short and stout posture. They are well known for their playful personality and their calm and friendly temperament.
They can adapt well to different situations. Due to their highly independent nature, they are not considered the most obedient breed.
My shih tzu hates baths and also grooming. I just force him because I don't want him to get his hair in knots for not brushing or cleaning.
Stimmt nicht alles ! Habe selber einen und einiges stimmt nicht ! Sie sind gut sozialisiert mögen Kinder Katzen und sind sehr Menschenfreundlich neugierig , verspielt und man kann sie überall mitnehmen ! Durch ihr freundliches Wesen ,wickeln sie einem schnell ums Pfötchen aber weder verfressen noch zu dick weil sie sehr beweglich sind auch sehr schnell Stubenrein und bei vernünftiger Pflege sehr gut zu händeln ! Ausser Impfungen Wurmkur Zeckenschutz hatte ich keine grossartigen Tierarztkosten . Hoffe das es so bleibt und wir noch eine schöne Zeit zusammen haben ! ❤❤❤😂😂
I have 2 shitzus a 1yr old Boy Ryder and a 5 month old girl Sky. They are both very good babies and have a lot of personality, Energy and is very smart to. I’m not sure why they have a problem with Potty training which my Ryder is potty trained and my puppy is potty trained to a certain extent Now Ryder is pissing in the house and Sky what tricks are out there for me to use to get my puppies to where I can leave them out with no worries and not worry about them being Bad and pissing in my house right in front of use like they don’t care.
It's great that you have two Shih Tzus with distinct personalities and energy levels! Regarding potty training, consistency is key. Keep reinforcing their training and try using positive reinforcement techniques. Consider crate training and schedule regular potty breaks outside. With patience, they'll improve over time. 🙂
I have two shih tzus the bigger one bullies the small one 😢
Mas okey talaga mga alaga lagi may maintenance
I have had Shitz tzu's all my life.
...and, 11: Don't do anything whatsoever to them while they're asleep 😂
My Ted doesn't see me as a Human companion; he thinks I'm his butler.

*Thanks for your video. It was on time. I have a 6 year old shih tzu. I work, and he has to stay inside the house. Now, all of a sudden, he's chewing around the bedroom doors trying to get in, he jumped in my bed and urinated. Suddenly, he is destroying my inside doors. 🚪 I had to leave him in his kennel today, until I can think of something else. He never done this before. He used to be looking out the window when I get home from work. I will miss that today.😢*
Perhaps a crate is a great solution. It saves you money and at the kennel they're usually left in a kennel most of the time (unlike day care which is more about socialization). You coukd also consider daycare and taking your dog there from time to time. Nice walks would also go a long way.
@@camillereid988- *Thanks!*
@@ashnahashan1245 I really understand because my pooch started destroying the house while I was away and getting a crate saved us both.
You put the poor dog in a crate???
Don’t forget to give them bones ( that are safe) or really good dog chews that are not raw Hyde. That will keep your dog busy and away from chewing other things

How to train shizu for potty training
Yo quiro un shitzu
Correction my Shih Tzu is 14
Ours is Jackson a rescue ShihTzu.
So change the title to any dog !!!!
This is a list of generic, most obvious things that would apply to almost any pet. Also, Read by a robot.
My Shih Tzu is so sensitive. She runs off if I cough. I think she thinks I’m barking at her. 🤣🐾
make sure to get a Tesla if u love your dog!
Jk
What happen? Thats too young
There's one more... Never cook your shit tzu without marinating in vinegar at least an hour before marinating it in soy sauce calamansi pepper.
You Chinese are just not normal..
