In their own words
We are a family Shih Tzu breeder here in the Arizona valley for 25 years. All our dogs are AKC registered and our sire is a DNA certified stud for the AKC. Our mission is to breed the healthiest, smaller Shih Tzu, with great temperaments. We carefully select new additions to our kennel that will only add better quality to our line. Our dogs are well cared for in our home as part of the family. Great care goes into their physical health, with routine dental cleanings and vet check ups. Our motto is that “Healthy Mamas have Healthy Babies”. It is a great joy for us to place these precious babies with the best families and to hear of how they have blessed their lives.

Before you call a Shih Tzu breeder
- Health results for both parents. Good Shih Tzu breeders test for patellas, an eye exam and kidney screening, and show you the paperwork.
- See the mother with the litter, in person or on a live video call, not only photos.
- A real breeder asks you questions about your home and schedule, and often has a waitlist.
- Never wire money or pay with gift cards or crypto before you have seen the puppy. That is how most puppy scams work.
