Q. & A. with Kimberly

  • What makes your program special?

    Our breeding program is built on quality, health, and temperament above all else. We carefully select our Shih Tzu parents for their structure, genetics, and loving personalities to ensure each puppy reflects the true standard of the breed. Every puppy is raised in a hands-on home environment where they receive daily interaction, early socialization, and attentive care. From the moment they are born, they are handled, loved, and monitored closely so they grow into confident, well-adjusted companions. We prioritize responsible breeding practices by keeping our program small and focused, allowing us to give each puppy the attention it deserves. Our puppies leave current on vaccinations, microchipped, and with the strong foundation they need to transition smoothly into their new families. For us, breeding is not just about producing puppies — it is about preserving the beauty, health, and wonderful temperament that makes the Shih Tzu such a beloved companion.

    Kimberly is wonderful! Easy to talk to, informative and genuinely cares about her program and the pups! She will be the only Shih Tzu breeder I will recommend!

    When we first decided to get a new furry family member, we wanted to make sure we were doing the responsible thing by finding a breeder who truly cares for their animals. We were sold a puppy with parvo 6 years ago and the breeder lied about everything, leaving us to pay thousands of dollars to watch it pass. We waited years to even consider getting another dog. That being said we were picky with where we looked . Then we found Kim. From the beginning she was very kind and honest about everything. We reserved a puppy which turned out to have a birth defect. Kim tried everything she could to save this puppy. From hourly bottle feeding; to incubator time, Kim spent 6 sleepless weeks caring for this puppy and showed her true colors as a caring and loving dog breeder. Sadly the puppy did pass, but Kim being an honorable person offered us a new healthy puppy at the same cost. We were in communication over 3 months. She would send us weekly pictures of the progress of our puppy. When the time finally came to pick up our Mushu, we were pleased to see a very nice environment for the program she is running. We recommend Kim to anyone looking for a shih tzu. She is an obvious dog lover who cares about preserving the breed. Thank you Kim! My daughter couldnt be happier

    Kimberly was very responsive and knowledgeable about Shih Tzu’s. It was a pleasure working with her. She was honest and true and let me know everything I needed know about the breed and all the right stuff to get my new Shih Tzu aka Goldie. I love that she said if I ever need anything I can always reach out to her with any questions or concerns. Thank you again Kimberly you went above and beyond with the video calls and setting up transportation was quick and easy. Thank you!

    We are very happy with our puppy we got from Kimberly. She is very knowledgeable about the breed and very caring. She was responsive during the entire Good Dog experience and this puppy has been one of the most easily adjusted pups into our home. Her love and care for the breed and caring for them makes adjustments to a new home so easy for both pups and pet parents. We are in love with our new furbaby and thank Kimberly from bottom of our hearts. 💜

    We are so in love with our boy from Shih Tzu’s ‘N’ Love! He’s so smart, sweet, silly, and his personality is pure joy. He came with ears that stunk, perhaps yeast growth, but we found ways to help him with that. We love our boy so much and would easily choose from this breeder again.
