Meet the breeder

I'm Arlisha D., the breeder behind Fluff and Tuff Shih Tzus located in Southaven, MS. At 6 weeks, puppies are taken to the vet for a vet exam & deworming ONLY. I keep them an additional 2 weeks after to ensure they are fully prepped before going home to their forever families. Each pup will go home with a puppy starter kit as well.

Q. & A. with Arlisha

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I purchased my first boy Shih Tzu and a year later I purchased a girl Shih Tzu. I fell in love with the fact that they became so attached to each other and instantly thought about becoming a breeder. The joy that I get from adding happiness to people lives is the reason why I do it!

  • What makes your program special?

    My pups are very well loved and healthy. Each dog will go home with a care package. The care package includes, a blanket that smells like mommy, a toy, & a brochure on how to take care of your new fur baby.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are brindle and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
