Q. & A. with Bobbi
Why did you start breeding?
My love for Shih Tzu began many years ago. I started showing dogs in 1996 and later began my breeding program in 2001. I fell in love with the breed’s sweet, affectionate personalities and wonderful companionship. Over the years, raising Shih Tzu has become a true family passion.What makes your program special?
Our puppies are raised in our home and receive hands-on care and attention from day one. Being raised around our family and children helps them become confident, loving companions. We focus on wonderful temperaments and carefully matching each puppy with the right family. I’m also here for our puppy families long after they go home.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
