    I could not be happier with the process of working with Jimmy and Rowena. Their communication and video's they sent of my puppy was so helpful to understand her personality before ever bringing her home. She is even more wonderful than I expected. She is smart, funny, playful and loving. She is transitioning so well. It is obvious that Jimmy and Rowena were kind, loving and provided a positive environment. provided a positive environment

    Working with Jimmy and Rowena Gomez from Juji Shih Tzu through Good Dog was an absolute pleasure. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and genuinely passionate about matching the right puppy with the right family. Thanks to them, we found our newest family member, "Rocky"—now affectionately called Jabarkus—an energetic and adorable Shih Tzu puppy who has been the perfect first pet for our two girls. He’s brought so much joy, and laughter into our home. Not to mention he's been instrumental in helping us teach about the importance of responsibility and care. We’re so grateful for this smooth and thoughtful experience and we've got Jimmy and Rowena to thank for it!

    I had been searching for the perfect puppy for nearly eight or nine months when I stumbled across Jimmy and Rowena’s page on GoodDog—and I’m so glad I did. I instantly fell in love with one of their puppies and sent a message late that night. To my surprise, I received a thoughtful response the very next day. They immediately sent me updated pictures and offered to schedule a FaceTime that same evening so my family and I could meet the puppy virtually—and they followed through exactly as promised. From that moment on, the experience was nothing short of amazing. Each week leading up to pickup day, Jimmy and Rowena kept me updated on how my puppy was doing. Their communication was consistent, kind, and informative. When the big day finally came, my family and I traveled to meet our new fur baby. The pickup process was incredibly smooth and stress-free. Jimmy and Rowena were just as warm and welcoming in person as they were over the phone. Their home was clean, and it was clear that both the puppies and adult Shih Tzus were extremely well cared for and loved. They also took the time to share helpful tips and even sent us home with a thoughtful goodie bag to ease the puppy’s transition into our home. The entire process—from start to finish—was the easiest and most positive experience I’ve ever had with a breeder. I highly recommend Jimmy and Rowena to anyone looking for a reputable, caring, and responsive breeder. You can truly tell they love what they do.
