I'm Marcie F., the breeder behind Kitsune Cuddles and kisses located in Arcadia, FL. We adore Shih Tzus. Our dogs have enriched our lives in ways we never imagined, and we are so happy to be able to share the wonderful qualities of the breed with others. Owning a Shih Tzu is a beautiful experience, and it would be our honor to connect you with the perfect new addition to your family.
Q. & A. with Marcie
Why did you start breeding?
My oldest female (now retired) and my friend's male we decided to allow to have a litter..After that I decided I wanted to persue breeding to bring happiness to other families and better the breed .And I purchased two female puppies .
What makes your program special?
I have 3 top quality studs ..I am a firm believer that the stud (father) being of the best quality is the most essential part of the breeding pair. 4 puppies I have placed have gone on to be Esa or service animals .. We strive for not only for temperament but for social ability.
Our puppies are just little balls of love and awesome
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream and white, chocolate, black, liver, blue, red and white, black gold and white, black and white, and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
