Q. & A. with Steven
Why did you start breeding?
After falling in love with our first Shih Tzu, we knew we wanted to share that joy with others. We started our small program to raise puppies who are healthy, happy, and deeply loved from the very start. We’ve never looked back—these little dogs changed our lives and now brighten others'.What makes your program special?
We raise small standard-size AKC Shih Tzus in our home with a focus on health, temperament, and lifelong companionship. Our puppies receive early socialization, one-on-one care, and are truly part of the family. We believe in doing things the right way—with love, purpose, and integrity.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Steven and Elana were wonderful to work with in adopting our puppies. There were frequent updates with photos as they grew. And , when the day arrived to get the puppies, I enjoyed meeting the other puppies and their new families. Also, questions and inquiries were answered in a timely manner. My puppies are doing great and I could not be happier with them.

We are so happy with our new pup "Tate"! He is everything I was hoping for! He's sweet, well socialized, loves the car and gets a long well with our other fur babies. Steven and Elana responded quickly to my inquiry and answered all of my questions. I appreciate how well they care for their dogs, it shows! Tate came with some extra goodies to get us started which I also appreciated, making our transition easier. I highly recommend this breeder.

Lala’s All Star Shih Tzu was absolutely amazing through the entire process. From the first time we spoke to the time we got our new puppy, they were always willing to answer questions to make the process as smooth as possible. We received a long list of suggestions and products that would be useful for a brand new puppy. This was extremely helpful. Our new puppy is loving, crate trained, and almost potty trained by the time we got him. We are so grateful to Lala’s All stars for such cuddly wonderful puppy!

We had a great experience with this breeder. They keep us well informed throughout the entire adoption process. Along with our new puppy we received a lovely care package from them. I would highly recommend this breeder if you are looking for a sweet natured pup to add to your family.
