Q. & A. with Elizabeth
Why did you start breeding?
I met a wonderful friend who changed my life and allowed me to enter the world of breeding with her. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I love doing what I do.
What makes your program special?
Our puppies stay with us until they have received all their vaccinations at 3 to 4 months of age. During this time, they are extensively socialized. We are committed to going above and beyond. By limiting our breeding to 2litters per year, we are able to provide each puppy with individual attention daily. Our dedication stems from understanding & sharing your care & concern for these babies.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Shih Tzu
About Tiana AKC
Tiana: Our Dazzling Parti Princess
Tiana is the definition of a classic parti Shih Tzu, with a mostly white coat beautifully accented by golden brown markings, kissed with hints of red and black. Her coat is soft and flowing, with coloring that looks like it was hand-painted; a perfect display of the breed’s beauty and balance. With her champion lineage, her look is as regal as her name suggests.
But what truly makes Tiana special is her graceful, spirited personality. She’s our teenage daughter’s pride and joy; a loyal little shadow who lives for lap time, belly rubs, and applause. Tiana twirls on command and even “speaks” when asked, showing off her smarts and sass with pride. She’s gentle, affectionate, and loves to perform for treats, always ready to charm with her elegant little tricks and warm, soulful eyes.
Tiana brings joy and sparkle to our home every day; a stunning mama with a heart just as dazzling as her coat.

About Maui AKC
Flynn: Our Platinum Prince
Flynn is our tiny heart stealer, wrapped in a breathtaking coat that shimmers with a platinum/bluish tone and a velvety black mask coupled with his traditional Shih Tzu markings. His coloring is rare and regal, like moonlight cast over polished steel, with subtle bluish tones that shift in the light, making him look almost sculpted from smoke and shadow with golden highlights. His bold black mask adds to his noble look, and his champion lineage speaks for itself.
But Flynn’s not just a pretty face, he’s full of personality and charm. At just 6 pounds, he’s small in size but huge in character. He’s the first to greet guests at the door, tail wagging like he’s hosting the party. He loves to “talk” to us with his expressive little grumbles and playful sounds, and he’s notorious for stealing toys from the other dogs, especially if they’re squeaky! Flynn absolutely adores being held and carried like the royalty he believes he is, and he keeps us laughing every day with his silly antics and confident strut.
Flynn is the heart and humor of our home; a truly unforgettable sire whose stunning looks are matched only by his loving, mischievous spirit.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the very beginning, Elizabeth showed true care, knowledge, and passion for their dogs. Every step of the process was thoughtful and transparent — from answering our questions with patience, to keeping us updated with photos and progress, to making sure our pup was healthy, happy, and well-socialized before coming home.
It’s clear the dogs are raised with love and responsibility. Our puppy is not only beautiful but also has the sweetest temperament — a true reflection of the breeder’s dedication. We feel so grateful to have found them and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trusted breeder who truly goes above and beyond.

Amazing experience! We were so pleased with how knowledgeable and helpful Elizabeth was. She absolutely gives her puppies so much love and affection in their first weeks of life. Our sweet little angel is a God send. We could not be happier. I highly recommend anyone that is looking for a good responsible breeder with quality puppies that are loved and cared for during their first months, look to Good Lil Shih Tzu’s.
