The Joy of Owning a Shih Tzu

A very good book for the history of breed and anyone who is going to breed the shih tzu, this is the book. The book arrived in excellent condition and gift wrapped.

Best Book on Shih Tzu EVER

There are not many books on Shih Tzu, and most of them are formulaic. This book stands out by a mile as the best-written, most informed, most sensible and complete book about the breed. Even though it is an older book, it has not lost anything over the years, because the breed is still the same! The special care that Shih Tzus need is explained here better than you can find it anywhere else. I would say to all breeders, when you sell a puppy, and people want to know what to do, tell them to buy this book, because it is written by two women who were breeders and understood the breed. It doesn't have any chapters in there that some publishers thinks would apply equally to a Great Dane or a Pointer or a Shih Tzu. This book is special, it is all about Shih Tzu. Don't even bother with those other books.
