Young Adults Available
From time to time we have a beautiful young adult available to a forever home! Our adults have been raised in our homes and part of our families. Without any doubt the hardest part of breeding is parting with our adults- but we know that the alternative is to either quit breeding or to be Cruella DeVille! In our experience owning and breeding we have found many people and families who are actually better suited to an adult Shih Tzu. The majority of the hard work has already been done for you as our adults have been part of our familes and always loved and cared for. Our dogs are always top quality beautiful purebred Shih Tzu, many with Champion bloodlines. They have always recieved good feed, regular vet care,professional grooming, have had some health screening related to breeding and were either bred by us, or chosen from quality reputable breeders. Our young adults will give your family the same love and joy they have given us! We do not sell our older puppies to other breeders, they are either already spayed/neutered or on a strict spay/neuter contract only.
All older puppies/ young adults receive a current vet check and are sold with a 7 day guarantee against life threatening un treatable genetic defects, so you are able to take them to your own vet.. We can not guarantee potty training, socialization or training of any kind as dogs will behave in different environments and with different people. No other guarantees are made or implied.
Why a young adult?
1. Minimize the unknowns-Because are adults have been part of our family , health, size, personality, likes/dislikes of our adults are well known and we are best able to match them to their forever family. We also require all prospective to meet in person, so you are able to get a better idea of the individual dogs.
2. Bypass the puppy stage- Our adults have already all of their core shots, and are used to being groomed and seen by the vet as well. They are usually sleeping through the night and have had potty training to outside/inside. They will need further potty training in their new homes. Puppies are a lot of fun but they are also a lot of work and a young adult has had a lot of that hard work already done for you.
4. Young adults are much less expensive than our puppies -and have already had a lot of money put into them getting them ready for their new homes. Our adults typically cost us $2000-$4000 just to purchase and have had lots of time and money put into them. Our Shih Tzu typically retire at 3-5 years and considering the typical Shih Tzu lifespan is 12-18 years you are getting the majority of their lifespan with all of the hard work already done at a fraction of the price of one of our puppies!
5. Our young adults come currently vet checked, utd on shots, worming and flea prevention
Please note: Older puppies may take a little longer to transition to your home but once they have fully transitioned and gotten acclimated to your routine they will be able to fully trained much quicker than a young puppy. We would also recommend that you continue with training in the new home and recommend group training classes.

We only place adult Shih Tzu to local CA homes,and you must drive to meet them. We require experience with with dog ownership and training, this is a MUST for adopting an adult Shih Tzu from us. All adult dogs have more established personalities and that is why it is important that you come meet them in person to try to make the best match for both you and the dog. Adult Shih Tzu need to be worked with and take longer to adjust to new home situations and new people. Though adult generally take 2 or 3 weeks on average ( can take longer) to transition to their new homes, they are so worth the time and effort as the bond very closely to their new homes and provide wonderful companionship! We would always recommend new homes enroll them in some basic training which is a wonderful time to bond with your new dog.

Chiffon is a beautiful dark Champion line Shih Tzu girl ready to start the next chapter in her life with a deserving family! Chiffon loves to go out with her people and walks very well on a leash and is very well mannered and socialized when out and about. She always turns heads wherever she goes! At just turning 5 years old she has many years ahead of her and is in great condition! After her puppies she is a short and compact 9.5 pounds. She would best suited to an active senior/retiree or possibly a family with older children. While she loves young children ( would love when the grand children come to visit) we want it be her time to be the center of attention. She loves other dogs and cats and would do well with another small dog, or would do just fine as an only dog provided she is able to be with her new Mommy/ Daddy most of the time. She follows you around and loves to be everywhere with her people.
Chiffon has the funniest personality and the smartest of all our dogs, she is very human like! She loves toys and is equally as happy laying with her special person on the couch as she is going bye bye. She is still very puppy like and in great shape, passing multiple vet checks with flying colors. Like all adult dogs she will take a couple of weeks or so to settle into her home and bond with her new family but once she does so you will not find a more loyal and loving girl.
