I'm Monica D., the breeder behind ROSE LANE SHIH TZUS located in Woodsfield, OH. My dogs are bred for health, temperament, and intelligence. They are raised lovingly in my home.

Q. & A. with Monica

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I grew up in farms resulting in lots of experience in animal husbandry. I am a registered nurse so I have lots of medical and caretaker experience. I started breeding in 2008 whe I got a male companion for my female shih tzu. I now have 4 breeding females. 2 sires and one retired female named Booboo Rose who is the foundation of my girls.

  • What makes your program special?

    Rose Lane Quality Shih Tzus produces breed standard, intelligent sweet tempered AKC shih tzus. My sire SIR Raiden Handle Rose comes from exceptional linage. His great grandfather was the International world champion shih tzu in 2018. He is from Thomas Bright Odessa Joy line. My dogs are all extremely healthy and get regular veterinan health checks. Sir Raiden has had genetic DNA testing and results show No Abnormalities. They have pleasant outgoing personalities and make wonderful additions to your home

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

    Our puppies include black and tan, black, red, gold and white, black gold and silver, and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

    Monica was fantastic! This was our first pet we’ve welcomed into our family in over a decade so we had a fair amount of questions and Monica was there to answer all of them. Once we chose our puppy she sent pictures and videos leading up to the day we took our puppy home, meeting at a convenient public location we agreed upon to meet up. She was very transparent about the health of the puppy and the vaccines he received while under her care, and once we had our puppy at home she continued to check in and see how everything was going. The communication, transparency, and overall care Monica had from the beginning of the process until long after the transaction was complete is exactly what anyone would want when adding a new little member to their family. I cannot recommend Monica enough!

    Monica is clearly doing something great, this is our 4th shih tzu and he is absolutely a joy. He is so loving and wants to me near you at all times. The training is going very well, he seems to get it pretty easily and he was already understanding of the whole concept when we got him. Again thank you Monica for bringing such happiness to our everyday

    Dealing with Monica was absolutely wonderful. She kept us informed and sent us regular updates and pictures of our little boy, Buddy! He is turning into a wonderful little guy. He is now partially potty trained, but he has trouble nipping because he is only 3 months old and getting in his teeth. Just a wonderful experience and a wonderful puppy and the best person to work with, we thank you Monica! We have recommended her to some of our friends, so now we'll see what happens. Thanks again!

    I had a great experience purchasing my Shih Tzu puppy, Kovu, through Monica! She was super helpful, informative, and accessible. She promptly answered messages and even face timed with me so I could see Kovu. And, she went above and beyond and flew Kovu all the way to Oklahoma to meet me to pick him up! Highly recommend Monica Dennison to anyone wanting a sweet and amazing Shih Tzu puppy!

    It was a great experience Monica was very informative every step of the way. The puppy is great and has been very easy to finish the potty training. I will recommend Rose Lane Shih Tzu’s to everyone that is look for a puppy. They are very well taken care off. So glad I found Monica we will only get puppies from her.It was worth the trip.
