Shih Tzu are the most wonderful companion dogs there are in the opinions of lots of people, including us.  It's for their companionship that we raise them in our home.

Examine your circumstances with this light humor to see if a Shih Tzu is right for you.

You may not need a Shih Tzu.........

If you are home only one day a week.

If you think a cage is a dogsitter while you're at work,

You don't need a Shih Tzu.

If you would leave a dog in your truck while you shop,

You don't need a Shih Tzu.

If the smoke in your "double-wide" would choke a horse,

You don't need a Shih Tzu

If you can hardly afford to buy a ferret ($130 at Petco)

You may not need a Shih Tzu.

If you hope to make money from breeding dogs,

You don't want Shih Tzu.

If you think a dog should live outside,

You certainly don't need a Shih Tzu.

If you think a dog should groom itself,

You don't need a Shih Tzu.

If you think a dog should obey all commands

You don't want a Shih Tzu.

If your whole backyard is a swimming pool,

You don't need a Shih Tzu.

If you think a dog should be allowed to roam unsupervised on the back forty,

You don't need a Shih Tzu.

If your back yard fence has so many holes it looks like Swiss cheese,

You don't need a Shih Tzu.

If you hope to win an ugly dog contest,

You  probably don't want a Shih Tzu.

If you don't want a dog kissing your face,

You don't need a Shih Tzu.

If you think there is such a thing as a free dog,

You don't need a Shih Tzu.

If you want to buy a surprise gift for someone, try cologne.

You don't need a Shih Tzu.

But if you have time to be a real companion to a real companion dog,

You  most certainly need a Shih Tzu!

And if you want one you will be proud to own and delight in it every day,

You need one of OUR Shih Tzu!!
