  • Family Benefits: Shih Tzus are known for their affectionate and trusting nature, which makes them perfect for families seeking a loyal and loving companion. Their non-shedding coat, though long, is hypoallergenic and requires regular grooming to prevent matting. Shih Tzus bond deeply with their human family and enjoy being in the center of attention, making them a great choice for families with young children.
  • Therapy Benefits: Shih Tzus’ calm, gentle nature is ideal for providing emotional comfort. They are particularly good therapy dogs for those who need a quiet and soothing presence, such as elderly individuals or children undergoing therapy. Their small size allows them to be easily portable, making them ideal for therapy in a variety of environments, including hospitals or homes.
