What is a Shih Tzu?

"A dash of Lion, several teaspoons of Rabbit, a couple ounces of old Chinese men, a bit of Beggar, a tablespoon of monkey, one part Baby Seal, and a dash of Teddy Bear."

James E. Mumford

(Thanks to Alli (& Cassey) for supplying the above quote!)

My Heart Belongs to a Shih Tzu

Feather-duster tail and beard, Bright expressive eyes- The Shih Tzu is devoted, Intelligent and wise. Loving and courageous, A friend that's always true- A dog that brightens each new day, And makes the dark skies blue. Bewhiskered face and trailing coat- The Shih Tzu stands apart. The moment that I saw that face, I quickly lost my heart.

(Unknown)

Somewhat stubborn and oh-so-easy to spoil, the Shih Tzu is one of dogdom's happiest breeds.

Hey, there! Beau, CGC,TDI, (& Assistance Hearing Dog) and I hope you like our website (official move-in date 6-6-99)! This is a site that specializes in fun conversation (forum=talk+discuss+share) of this wonderful breed, as well as showcasing how much this breed can definitely help out with your limitations of any kind! Check out our HEARING EAR DOG page...

Keep checking back for PHOTO & NEWS updates!

The title of this page is actually the original name of our quarterly hobby newsletter, that we founded in January, 1998. We use various color papers with black text- no gloss, and yes, black & white pictures of our Furbabies! The newsprint is a federal trademark and a registered COPYRIGHT. Effective January, 2000, it is now temporarily shelved, so that we could channel our energy over to this fun Site and provide more friendly interaction! By the way, if you would like information on the back issues of our newsprint, please contact:
