Summary: The Best Book on the Market
Review: "The Official Book of the Shih Tzu" is one of the most comprehensive books I have read regarding the Shih Tzu! It provides the history and characteristics of the breed. It also goes into detail on choosing your puppy, your puppy's development and how to groom your pet Shih Tzu. One of the best parts of this book, in my opinion, is the illustrated guide to the Shih Tzu standard. This section shows in very clear pictures and illustrations the correct and incorrect confirmation. The amazing thing to me is that the illustrations are with and without hair, so you get a very clear picture of how a Shih Tzu should look. This book also contains suggestions on training, showing and teaching your dog to be a Therapy dog. It covers health, breeding, whelping and raising a Shih Tzu litter. However, the absolutely best part of this book is the photos. There are 100s of photos that show the wonderful, sweet disposition of this remarkable dog! If you are looking for one book to cover everything you need to know about your Shih Tzu, this is the book for you!

Summary: This book is by far the best shih tzu book I have read!
Review: As a breeder and exhibitor of shih tzu for over 12 years, I found this book to be the best of its kind on the breed. It is absolutely full of great color photos, and it has a very comprehensive collection of information from many knowledgeable sources. This book will be helpful to both the new shih tzu owner and the experienced breeder/exhibitor. It is the first book to include the new American Shih Tzu Club illustrated standard. There is also an extensive illustrated chapter on both pet and show grooming. The general care information and history chapters are also excellent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a great book!
Review: This is a book that would be enjoyed and appreciated by any one that owns, shows or breeds a Shih Tzu. It would also be excellent for someone who does not know the breed and wants to learn more about it. The illustrations are beautiful and you know that this book has been written by someone who is very well informed about the Shih Tzu breed and also loves them very much.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The BEST book on shih tzu ever written!
Review: This is by far the best book about shih tzu that I have ever seen. Most books on this breed just briefly cover the history, care and grooming of shih tzu. Not this book. Everything is in great detail and every question you've ever had is answered. This book gives in depth details about the origin of the breed. It covers everything a pet owner needs to know about properly caring for the breed. It also deals with such topics as breeding, showing, show grooming, handling, obedience training, agility training, health issues and more. This book is for every shih tzu owner. Breeders, exhibitors and pet owners alike will all appreciate this book.

Rating: 4 stars

Review: Very informative about the origins and showing of the shih tzu. I would have liked more in depth information on breeding but otherwise very good book with nice laminated pages and 100's of photos all in color. Overall very pleased with this book and would recommend highly.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Should be required material for all new Shih Tzu owners
Review: We have picked out our puppy and are waiting two more weeks until he is ready to come home with us. I bought this book so that we could be prepared, since I've never owned a puppy before, much less a Shih-Tzu. Not only was the book just plain interesting (the history of the breed, pictures of the dogs without hair so you could see body shapes), but it was full of valuable information that I will use in choosing items to purchase before the big day arrives! Most important for me was how to groom (including a list AND picture off all essential grooming supplies), an example of daily routines (useful in getting an idea on how to housebreak the puppy), and information on health (immunizations, etc.).

I can't wait to get my puppy - but I know it will be a lot of work (rewarding work!). This book will definitely be my "Puppy Bible!"

Summary: disgusting habbits
Review: why do our beloved shih tzu's eat their own droppings? I give my dog the best food possible, i even shop for her vegies, fruits, dog foods and all. she doesn't chew her food properly and swallows in 2 seconds. then she goes outside to relieve herself. Sometimes I see her teach another dog to put their dried droppings in their mouths. I open her mouth like a baby and smell it when i suspect something, then i wash her mouth with water and when i catch her in the act she gets a nasty verbal punishment from me.
