Collection: Shih Tzu

Originating as a sacred palace pet in Tibet and China, the Shih Tzu—known as the "lion dog"—is a beloved toy breed weighing 9 to 16 pounds. Famous for its long, flowing, low-shedding double coat and expressive squished face, this sweet-natured lapdog lives 10 to 16 years. Highly affectionate and friendly with children and other pets, they thrive on moderate indoor play and short daily walks, making them perfect companions for any home.
