We have always loved the Shih Tzu breed. We were so smitten by our own pups, we knew we wanted to share them with others who would love them just as much. It is such a joy to set the foundation of our puppies' lives.What makes your program special?
Every step of the breeding process is crucial to the well-being of the dog, and we do not cut corners. We go above and beyond for every dog, puppy, and litter as a whole in our breeding program.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, liver, and gold. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?

+5Leko was wonderful to work with. They met us halfway to make our travel shorter. They had all the paperwork ready and sent us home with a care package including food and toys. Our new puppy Imogen is such a joy. She's so sweet, smart and entertaining! She was easy to train and fits in so well with our other Shih Tzus!

I am so grateful for my new best friend! He’s own little teddy bear and we’re gonna have many fun adventures. You can tell he was loved by the breeder, both from his sweet disposition and them checking in on him. He had his first vet appointment yesterday and received all As- a perfectly healthy pup.
