Meet the breeder

I'm Amy F., the breeder behind Ashville Shih Tzu Chalet located in Ross County, OH. Our mission is to raise healthy, happy, adorable puppies and connect loving families with their new best friend! Our dogs and puppies are raised in our home and are loved as family. We spend countless hours with each of our litters, socializing and caring for our puppies to prepare them for their forever homes. We truly love our puppies and know you will too!

Q. & A. with Amy

  • Why did you start breeding?

    With part of my genetics program, it is something I have been doing for decades. I studied the breed and have a desire to not only help improve the breed, but breed quality pups that will make families happy for a long time!
  • What makes your program special?

    In carefully choosing my dogs, I was sure to get as much information about their background that I could. 2 of my girls (Rhylee & Khali) come from a very rich history in champion show dogs and have extensive historical records on them. Their sire includes over 70 champions including 5 imports. Their dam is a decent of Top-Hatz line (Peach Prince of Persia, Prince of Persia Winner & others)
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black, liver, blue, red, blue and white, liver and white, red and white, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Everything went swimmingly. Despite the long drive down to southern Ohio we enjoyed every part of it with our new puppy which we affectionately named Wally. He's awesome! Adorable and yes, it takes awhile to get his bathroom schedule down but we're doing pretty good but, Amy was wonderful with us. She helped us out and let us know what to do once we got him home and for him to adjust. We can't thank her enough.

    We picked up our puppy, Moxie, from Amy on January 4th, ’24. The home environment was clean, and Amy was welcoming and friendly. She handed over Moxie who had been freshly bathed and smelled wonderful. Moxie was active, social, and excited. We received our home-going bag of goodies and Amy explained the paperwork in the folder she had prepared for us and elicited and answered questions. We have had her home for just over a week. She is healthy and active, picking up on potty training quickly, and has ingratiated herself into our home consisting of three additional adult dogs. We would definitely work with this breeder again.

    Amy from Ashville Shih Tzu was so fantastic during this entire process. She was very responsive to my questions, sent me pictures & videos of Maya (Rose originally), & took the time to give me so much valuable information & guidance. Amy is such a responsible & caring breeder & I could not be more grateful to her for my beautiful, sweet, funny, & very healthy new baby, Maya.
