Meet our name Shih Tzu, we are from Asia, especially Tibet and China. Our
first nurtured many nobles and the king-queen of that era, but we have
now spread worldwide from Asia, Australia, America, Europe, Africa and
even though. We are also known as shih tzu dog lion (lion dog) because of our appearance and long thick hair like a lion. We
were the result of interbreeding between
several breeds predecessors,
such as Pekingese, Lhasa Apso, Chow-chow and a few other types. So
that after many decades we have crosses generations, finally we were
born as a pure breed shih tzu and then internationally recognized Kennel
Club since 1936.(Adapted from the book by Julienne Shih Tzu Caffort)Basically we are kind of a house dog who accompanied and comforted by her employer. We're not the kind of hunting dog, towing, labor, or a fighter.
We exist to be loved, caressed, and pampered-spoiled. Sometimes
we were a little foreign to bark at someone, but we will also be
friendly with them after they knew that they were not hurt. Although
our house dog, but that does not mean we are happy to stay all day in
34 or removable floor apartment in the yard chasing chickens and ducks
at any time. Some
people are happy we are to provide a bed or a pile of newspaper boxes
that really makes us uncomfortable, occasionally they let us play
outside while.Care about, oh yaa € | of course we need it most. Not good to let us loose in the yard all day, and also not good to let anak2 mempermainkam us at any time.
Although we love them, but we are-even takes care of our employers. Period bath once a week will be very good and we need to keep track of hair and our skin clean and fresh. Before the bath, we have carefully combed, carefully tousled hair do not let no-interlace or tied behind. Bathe us with a good shampoo and conditioner, do not use a brush or rubbing our hair like washing clothes. Bathe, caress caress us with a way so that our hair does not tangle. Then we need a hair dryer (blow-dry), Tapia € | do not let the wind is too hot or cold. If our employer does not want to let our hair hang too long, they can be cut short with scissors or a clipper. Or they took us to the salon / groomer so that they form a piece of us with a more interesting model, one puppy-cuts.
We are very excited when our employers walk the morning, or traveling with a vehicle if the day is not too hot. We are a pretty smart dog, we love something new, and we-will easily learn them.Should his other dogs, we are not fussy about food. Would
be a very good start if the employer gives us a special dog food (dog
food) plus dry fresh drinking water in bottles that are always hanging
all the time.Perkembang-biakkan/breeding be done after our 12-month-old, and should be done with the type shih tzu as well. Breeding
