Q. & A. with Molly
Why did you start breeding?
We are a family who love our Shih Tzus! When we got our sweet Annabelle Henrietta (who we call "Belle") we fell in love with the Shih Tzu breed! My daughter Sunny & I decided we wanted to raise these wonderful dogs to be beautiful & loving pets for other families like us! Since we love chocolate, naturally we were drawn to the beautiful Chocolate Shih Tzu colors! We just love God's creation!
What makes your program special?
We breed for health, personality & beautiful faces! We also love genetics and the recessive liver gene so we DNA each of our Shih Tzu to know what they carry. We work closely with our Vet and have our own holistic line of food & supplements. All of our Tzus are hugged and loved daily and live right here in our home! They are our pets so we raise their babies the same loving way!
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include chocolate, liver, and liver and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
