I'm Terry B., the breeder behind Shih Tzu Cottage located in Lake Worth, FL. I breed with a focus on health, temperament, and qualities that make for excellent family pets. I have personally owned shih tzu's for over 35 years. My dogs and puppies are lovingly raised in my home as part of my family so I can prepare them to be wonderful additions to yours.

Q. & A. with Terry

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I had my first Shih Tzu over 35 years ago, and fell in love with the breed. I have a need to do my part as a responsible breeder and produce healthy, well-rounded pups. I am devoted to ensuring there are happy and healthy Shih Tzu for others to enjoy, and I do so by ethically growing this incredible breed.

  • What makes your program special?

    My dogs and puppies are my family, and they get the best care I can possibly provide. I do everything I can to ensure my puppies have what they need to develop into healthy and happy dogs. In my breeding program, good health and temperament are essential, and cuteness and love are guaranteed.
