Meet the breeder

I'm Kara M., the breeder behind Mosley Shih Tzu located in League City, TX. I find so much joy in watching my puppies grow and develop their own unique personalities. I can’t wait for you to pick out your loyal companion! They come potty trained(and I was told from another breeder that I’m one of the only breeders that sends their puppies off knowing they are potty trained!!!), sensitized to clippers/scissors, nail trimming, and socialized with people and other Shih Tzus from my home. I am a small in home breeder and have unique rare colors to have that one of a find puppy for YOU!! Keep checking back for litter announcements!!!

Q. & A. with Kara

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I got into breeding AKC when I realized that I had a true love and passion for it. I love the colors that I produce and I love the end puppy result that I deliver every time. I spend a lot of time training the puppy not just selling a puppy. I believe people deserve a puppy that has a great temperament and won’t eat poop or tear up your house. A lot of people do not ask these crucial questions. Please do your research about hernias in Shih Tzus also. Just in case.

  • What makes your program special?

    I give a lot of time to my puppies. I begin the process of potty training and nail clipping and trimming their hygiene areas, hair on feet, and face. They are socialized with people and my adult Shih Tuzs. I make sure they are not poop eaters and you could leave them out if you ran to the store and your house wouldn’t be destroyed when you get back. I believe I turn out a great puppy to each home they go to. My prices are different for pet only and breeding prices.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include sable, chocolate and tan, liver, gold, red, liver and white, and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Absolutely love Kara! Nessley is everything we dreamed of!!! Kara kept me informed and updated pictures and videos constantly through process from day she was born until we picked her up. If I had questions regarding my other Shit Zhu Pebbles, Kara also there willing giving me advice. Could not ask for a better breeder. When I picked up Nessley, the bag she gave me, I was in awe, everything I needed to start out with a new puppy! I highly recommend her as a detailed, professional and caring breeder who raises beautiful healthy puppies! Provided DNA test on parents as well as vet reports!

    Kara is a great breeder. We enjoyed working with her from start to finish. Our dog, Soxie is well behaved and is completely housebroken, crate trained and a non barker. She is super cuddly. She is 7 months old and fits into our family like a glove. Thx Kara

    I contacted Kara with Mosley Kennel on Good Dog in late September 2025 after losing my beloved dog of 13 years in June 2025. My grief was getting the best of me, and I knew it was time to open my heart and home to another little dog. I wanted a Shih Tzu puppy but didn't really want one that was too young. As fate would have it, Kara had a beautiful little 10-month-old liver colored Shih Tzu that was already potty trained for the most part. She named him Prince Shey Duschon, which is pretty classy, but I had another name in mind. My BFF and I went to meet Kara and Prince on October 4, 2025, and we all immediately clicked, including Prince. I asked Kara if I could hold Prince and she said "Of course!" Prince stayed in my lap the entire two hours we were at Kara's house. It was as if he instinctively knew I was going to be his new mommy. Before I paid my deposit, I asked Kara if I could take custody of Prince after I returned from a pre-planned trip. Kara said, "Not a problem." She was so easy to work with and very responsive to my questions. I could tell Kara genuinely cares for all of her puppies and the puppy parents. She has integrity and is an absolute Godsend. I paid my deposit and told Prince I would be back to get him in a few days. I took custody of my little Prince on October 19, 2025, and absolutely adore him. He is spoiled twice over. Kara spoiled him first and I picked up where she left off! :-) I highly recommend Mosley Kennel to anyone looking for a happy, healthy, well-bred and well-trained Shih Tzu. Once you purchase your puppy, Kara will continue to avail herself for any questions you may have. She believes in "service after the sale."

    Kara Mosley was a blessing to work with! She is such a kind & friendly person. She is very knowledgeable about the Shih Tzu breed and she displays the love she has for her fur babies. From day one, I felt a connection with Kara and I’m so thankful to have found her through Good Dog. Kara sent us pictures & videos while we waited for our beautiful Daisy Sophia to come home. If you are looking for a gorgeous Shih Tzu with outstanding qualities, and a wonderful breeder to work with, Mosley Shih Tzu needs to be your first choice. I promise you won’t regret it.

    I was going through the grieving process from losing my 12 year old shih tzu and I just knew that it was too soon to welcome a new puppy into my life. Until I met Kara and her new puppies at the time. She was so patient and willing to talk about every single thing I was worried about, so I flew out to Texas to meet her. When I met Kara and my new puppy, Whiskey, I knew I was in the right place. Whiskey was absolute perfection and with Kara’s motherly touch, I welcomed Whiskey into my life. He has been with me for about 4 months now and it could not be more perfect. I am so grateful for meeting Kara and for her introducing me to Whiskey. She is still always available if I have any questions, so I’m extremely confident that Whiskey and I will have a long and meaningful life together. 🤍

    Kara was amazing though out the whole process of getting my sweet boy Dobby!! She was so up front with everything about my puppy. Even went into great detail for my dad because of our two previous attempts to get me a dog. She was incredibly understanding with him about his concerns and gave him the information he asked for right on the FaceTime call and if she didn’t have it she sent it to me the very next morning to send to him. It really was above and beyond that Kara went with us. Dobby has adjusted so well to Minnesota and faster than we thought he would. He’s going to be trained to be my emotional support dog. I’m over the moon with the puppy she gave me. Thank you so very much Kara.
