If you own a Shih Tzu, here are a few important things you should know 🐶:
1️⃣ They love attention
Shih Tzus are companion dogs and enjoy being around their owners. They don’t like being left alone for long.
2️⃣ Grooming is important
Their hair grows continuously, so regular brushing and grooming are needed to keep their coat healthy and free from tangles.
3️⃣ Moderate exercise is enough
Short daily walks and indoor playtime keep them happy and healthy.
4️⃣ Training requires patience
Shih Tzus are smart but can be a little stubborn, so consistent and positive training works best.
5️⃣ Watch their health
Because of their short snouts, they can be sensitive to heat and may have breathing, eye, or dental issues.
❤️ With proper care, love, and grooming, Shih Tzus make loyal, affectionate companions and wonderful family pets.
