Meet the breeder

I'm Julie S., the breeder behind Sorenson's Shih-tzus located in Wild Rose, WI. Our dogs are bred to have top qualities that all families want in their puppies, such as compassion, patience, and love! We are a small, in-home breeding program where we prioritize giving each dog and puppy the best care that we can. We cherish all of our animals and enjoy sharing the love of this breed with other individuals and families!

Q. & A. with Julie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I started breeding Shih-tzus in 1994 after selling our Dairy farm and while I still had 5 children at home. I love the breed. I enjoy having them, making so many people happy with a wonderful, healthy companion Shih-tzus. God has truly blessed me with these dogs. I hope that we can bless you and your family with one as well.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black, liver, blue, gold, red, liver and white, gold and white, red and white, brindle and white, blue and white, black gold and silver, black and white, and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Julie breeds the smartest most kind dogs I have ever encountered. She figures everything out by herself or with a demonstration I couldn’t be happier after losi n my best friend of 12 years. I couldn’t recommend her enough
