The Shih Tzu is an Asian toy dog breed originating from Tibet. This
breed is well-known for their short snout and large round eyes, as
well as their ever growing coat, floppy ears, and short and stout
posture. The Chinese have described their head shapes as "owl head" and "lion head", and their mouth as "frog mouth".
Although small in size, they are well-known for their largely fun and
playful personality, and calm and friendly termperament. They are
highly independent dogs, and are able to adapt well in different
situations. Though, due to their independent nature, they are not
considered the most obedient breed. My Bruno is 13 years old ,
loved to go on hikes when he was younger and lived in Colorado, and
proudly sports a magnificent beard.
