Meet the breeder
I'm Danielle P., the breeder behind Trinity Shih Tzu located in Trinity, NC. At Trinity Shih Tzu, we raise healthy, happy puppies in our home with love and care. Each puppy is well-socialized, vet-checked, microchipped, and started on potty training. We focus on health, temperament, and unique colors, helping families find their perfect lifelong companion.
Q. & A. with Danielle
Why did you start breeding?
My love for Shih Tzus started with my own dogs and quickly grew into a passion for preserving and improving the breed. I became dedicated to responsible breeding—focusing on health testing, temperament, and quality—so families can bring home not just a puppy, but a lifelong companion.What makes your program special?
Every puppy is raised in my home with daily socialization, Early Neurological Stimulation, and careful attention to health and development. I focus on exceptional structure, temperament, and rare, beautiful colors—while providing ongoing support to my families. My goal is simple: to raise puppies you’ll cherish for a lifetime.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Danielle was very responsive with our communications. We drove from Pittsburgh and couldn’t be happier. Our Poppy, who was Emma is a joy! Her coloring is stunning. I am a bit partial. She is six months old now and loved wherever she goes. Shots at the vet, no problem, wags her tail at every dog that comes in. The groomer comments that she is very tolerant. I can’t help but think that Danielle’s great care had so much to do with it. She has been that way from day one.

Danielle was a delight and super easy to communicate with during this process. My experience couldn’t have been any better! My pup came with a goodie bag of things to make his transition a little easier for him! He is the sweetest and cutest little guy! 100% recommend getting a pup from Danielle!!!!
