He looks like a muppet here. 😅 Who else has to sit in the back seat with their shih tzu on car rides?

He whines if my husband and I are both in the front seats, so I sit in the back with my boy. This is how he looks at me. ♥️😍 Edit: When it's just my boy and me, I have to put him in the front seat on very long car rides or he will start whining. 😥

HOW?! 👀🥰

Do you ever just stare at your Tzu thinking 💭: “HOW can something be THIS CUTE?!”

My family thinks I’m crazy when it comes to my love of Paddy, so I’m just hoping that someone on this Tzu planet 🌏 can relate. Although if I really am alone in my bafflement…I stand by it firmly!

ℹ️ In the picture I had just gotten home from foot surgery and he has been a very committed little carer (although he did take a few 💤 on the job 🙃).

My situation for the past 2+ hours

He jumped up on the chair when I sat down around 430pm, and I haven’t been able to move since. I’m starting to get hungry for dinner, and my Chipotle bowl is on the table waiting…

Shih Tzu survey:

Every time I get up — couch, chair, bed, whatever — Cozmo 🧸Mogwai / Shih Tzus immediately claims the spot like he has been paying rent there for years. 😆

Shih Tzu pup 9 weeks keeps chasing cats

So our very cute Shih Tzu is chasing our two cats. He’s often with me leashed when they’re around but if he’s not he lunges for them and of course they run and he chases. We try to prevent this behaviour and divert his attention and praise him if he just watches them (rare). We did a lot of research before getting him and chose the Shih Tzu breed specifically for their supposed non prey-drive and ability to get along with other household pets. I’m pretty sure this is only curiosity but the cats don’t know that and they’re miserable. Our concern is that this may become a learned behaviour with him feeling rewarded every time they run. Husband is talking about giving him back to breeder if we can’t get him to leave them alone. I’m pretty stressed. Of course it’s early days. Anyone else with a Shih Tzu that seems to have a prey drive?

Work buddies

Mabel really wanted to use the cat's bed next to my work chair, so I made it bunk beds.

I have finally started brushing Lunas teeth! What toothpaste works best for you, Crest Ultimate whitening or Sensodyne?

I'M KIDDING!! 😂😂😂

I'm wondering what everyone uses on the Tzu? Fetch sent me a free sample of Barkle so I'm currently using that but the reviews seems to be 50/50.

I'm so glad I started looking at her teeth and gums when she was a puppy so she has no issues with me putting the finger brush in her mouth. She seems to like the flavor of it and doesn't run and hide or fight me so that's encouraging. She has one tooth that seems to have more plaque then the others so I'm kinda focusing on that one while brushing her teeth.

Taking toilet duties very seriously today & i am surely biased but how are they so adorable!

Please tell me this is normal!

My puppy just turned a year old recently, she was chewing on a chew bone thing and I just found one of her teeth. Is this normal? I know their puppy teeth fall out but this looks awfully big.

My sweet husband took us on a canoe ride. It felt like the scene from The Notebook, except with a shih tzu. ♥️

We also went hiking. They are the two loves of my life and being on the canoe with my husband paddling us was just magical. ✨️♥️

Help me pick a name 🤎

Hi internet, please help me pick a name for this little guy we just brought into our family. My husband and I said we would name whatever dog we got Chandler and call him Chanandler Bong, one of our favorites (RIP) 😢

But now that he's been with us I'm not sure it fits him. I'm considering Bear, because when you're holding him he kinda sits up like a little bear cub. Plus Little Bear is a staple in this household.

Anyways I have analysis paralysis over every decision in my life so I thought I'd ask some strangers.

Edited to add: also considering Frankie after Frank Castle 🤪

Chippy is SO proud he hid a green bean. I had to leave the room to laugh at him.

Can anyone share their experience with luxating patella surgery?

My 1.5 yr old pup will be needing surgery on his right hing leg due to grade 3 luxating patella. The vet said it will take about two weeks for his incision to heal, and we need to be real careful during that time to try not getting it infected. The problem is work has only approved for me to take a week off. I usually drop him off at my parents when I’m at work, but idk how safe is to be moving him during those two weeks. Can anyone share their experience and any advice they might have?

He's got my vote!

I dropped off a shaggy boy with the groomer. I picked up a dapper congressman.
