    We had such a wonderful experience working with Jodi as our Shih-Tzu breeder. After encountering several challenges trying to adopt from other sources, finding Jodi through GoodDog was a true blessing. Her professionalism and deep knowledge of the breed immediately stood out. Throughout the process, Jodi was incredibly responsive and transparent. She answered all our questions promptly and shared detailed information about her breeding practices. It was clear that she prioritizes the health and well-being of her dogs above all else. We've now had our puppy Nori for a month, and we couldn't be happier! She's a healthy, well-adjusted pup, which was confirmed at our recent vet checkup. This speaks volumes about Jodi's dedication to responsible breeding and early puppy care. We would highly recommend Jodi to anyone looking for a Shih-Tzu puppy from a responsible breeder who genuinely cares about the breed and the families she works with.
