Shih Tzu

The Shih Tzu has always known they were bred for royalty. That spectacular coat, that dignified bearing, that absolute certainty that the best spot in every room belongs to them by birthright — it's all completely on brand for a dog who literally lived in Chinese imperial palaces. That coat requires daily brushing to prevent painful mats, regular professional grooming every six to eight weeks, and the right tools at home between appointments. Like all flat-faced breeds, they need protection from Hyderabad's heat. Our Shih Tzu collection at Cuddle Paws Co covers grooming essentials, breed-appropriate food, clothing and health care. The imperial treatment, properly delivered.
