I'm Joanne M., the breeder behind Krissy Shih Tzu located in Pittsboro, NC. We offer high-quality Shih Tzu puppies to show and companion homes. We breed for health, temperament, and conformation. We focus on the proper development of all our puppies because we know that each one is unique and deserving of undivided love and attention. Each puppy is bred, raised, and loved indoors to ensure health, happiness, and harmony at the start of its life. With our pups, beauty is a given, but producing healthy, loving, and versatile Shih Tzu is our true goal.
