Meet the breeder

I'm Robert V., the breeder behind Carolina Mountain Shih Tzus located in Murphy, NC. We decided to start breeding to share the best possible puppies with excellent personalities, temperament, and most of all health! The sweet, loyal, and playful disposition of our dogs inspired us to begin responsibly breeding to expand the breed and share them with others.

    Awesome!!! I got the only male puppy from the litter, named Mini Cooper. He’s so adorable and sweet and he’s adjusting perfectly with our family. We couldn’t be happier with him!!! Robert was kind enough to meet us over 1/2 the distance to Columbia, SC to get him. He provided us with some food, a blankie, and his medical records as well as his CKC papers to get him registered and gave us all the information we needed like what kind of food to feed him, his likes and dislikes in order to make the transition smoother. I would strongly recommend getting a dog from Carolina Mountain Shih Tzus. Oh yes, you can send Robert pics to keep him updated with your new fur baby. Thank you, Robert!!!
