The pedigree of our puppies can be traced to the original Shih Tzus from China (1930’s) which we can show you if interested.
If you find anything genetically terminal, with your puppy within 18 months of purchase, and it is proven by two licensed vets; one if the vet is ours.

We will replace the puppy for free with one from the next two available litters. Most breeders say you must return your original puppy to them at your cost, but who would or could do that at any cost! Getting attached to a puppy for 18 months, we sure couldn’t. To us that is a false guarantee, as we said, we wouldn’t be able to give one of our best friends back. That’s how many breeders get away without having to give up a new puppy (Words that really mean nothing to the buyer in the long run, and nothing out of the breeders pocket either.). We do this because we are confident in the health of our babies; we know there will be no problem with your new puppy. If by some rare occurrence this may happen, you will also know that you will be compensated without having to give up your best friend in return (shipping and handling excluded).
We may have one, rarely two litter(s) a year. Puppies are hand raised by myself, my wife and our three children in our home. Temperaments are excellent. All dew claws removed and puppies micro-chipped. Show quality and color not guaranteed (coat colours may change up to 18 months later).
