🌰🐾 Meet Chestnut — Your Little Teddy Bear Shih Tzu! 🐾🌰
Get ready to fall head over paws for Chestnut, an absolutely precious little teddy bear Shih Tzu with a heart full of love and a lifetime of cuddles to give! ❤️ This sweet little boy is being raised right in our home, surrounded by love, attention, and the kind of hands-on care that helps puppies get the very best start in life. We believe that raising a puppy is about so much more than an adorable face — it’s about building a foundation for a happy, confident, and well-adjusted companion.
🐾 Raised with Love & Intention
Chestnut is handled daily and receives early socialization and gentle desensitization to help him become comfortable with everyday sights, sounds, touch, and human interaction. Growing up in a dog trainer’s household means that learning starts early! From day one, we incorporate age-appropriate lessons in house manners, gentle handling, and positive daily routines to help prepare him for a smooth transition into his forever home.
❤️ A Healthy Start for a Lifetime of Love
Chestnut has been dewormed according to his age and will come with his veterinary records, first vaccinations, ICA paperwork, and a puppy contract, so his new family has important information and documentation to take home with him.
🎁 His Very Own Go-Home Goodies!
We want every puppy to leave our home with a little piece of comfort to take along! Each of our puppies goes home with a special puppy package that includes a brand-new bag of food and a toy to help make the transition to his new family a little easier.
🏡 Could Chestnut Be Your Missing Piece?
Chestnut is growing up surrounded by love, care, and intentional early learning, giving him a wonderful foundation as he gets ready to start his next chapter. If you’ve been dreaming of a sweet little companion to fill your days with puppy kisses, cozy cuddles, and unconditional love, this handsome little teddy bear might just be the one you’ve been waiting for! 🥰🐶
🌰 Chestnut is ready to find the family he can call his own!
📩 Message us for more information about this precious boy. We’d love to help Chestnut find the perfect forever home where he’ll be cherished as a beloved member of the family! ❤️🐾

Frequently Asked Questions
About
Shih Tzu
Puppies
Is a Shih Tzu the right dog for me?
The Shih Tzu is small, popular, and friendly, so what more could you ask for in a companion dog? Their intelligence and loyalty, along with their independence, will have you cuddling up with this bunch of cheerfulness in no time. Full-grown, they typically weigh 9-16 pounds and stand 9-11 inches tall.
Do Shih Tzus do well in a busy household?
Shih Tzus are generally excellent with children of all ages. Shih Tzus are indoor dogs who get along with other pets very well and love to cuddle in your lap, making them great family companions. You would never want to limit these small dogs to just the outdoors. They're moderate barkers — they'll alert you when something's up but aren't excessive.
Are Shih Tzus couch potatoes or do they need a lot of exercise?
Shih Tzu need short, daily walk but should also occasionally be exercised indoors. They do not adapt to hot weather very well, so they must be a primarily indoor dog. Care must be taken not to over or under exercise them as well. Overall, their exercise needs are moderate.
Is a Shih Tzu a good choice for someone with allergies?
Shih Tzus' long coat is somewhat high maintenance and requires everyday brushing to prevent tangles. These dogs should be taken to a professional groomer every couple of months. They are usually easier to maintain when their coats are clipped short, but you can't argue that those who have the long, dreamy coats are dramatic and eye catching. Grooming-wise, this breed is fairly high-maintenance. Shih Tzus are considered hypoallergenic, which can be a plus for allergy sufferers.
What should first-time owners know about Shih Tzus?
Shih Tzus are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. Since they are small, this breed can adapt to apartment living or a big house. Shih Tzus are indoor dogs who get along with other pets very well and love to cuddle in your lap, making them great family companions. They are fairly easy to train.
Puppy Buyer's FAQ
See Full Guide Here
Visit or Video Call the Breeder
Visit in person if possible, or request a live video call to meet the puppy, see its living conditions, and meet the mom. Ask to see where the dogs eat, sleep, and play.
Get a Vet Exam Immediately
Have a vet examine the puppy within two days of bringing it home, even if it seems healthy.
Request Complete Health Records
Ask for vaccination records, deworming history, and vet exam results. For purebreds, ask for parent health clearances.
Get Everything in Writing
Written contract with health guarantees, return/refund policy, and spay/neuter terms. Verbal promises are unenforceable.
Use Secure Payment Methods
Pay with a credit card or another traceable method that offers buyer protection. Avoid wire transfers, crypto, or gift cards, which are difficult to recover.
Verify Breeder Credentials
Check USDA license, state breeder license, breed club memberships, and reviews. Ask for buyer references.
Know What to Look For
A trustworthy breeder welcomes visits, specializes in one or two breeds, prices fairly, and gives you time to decide without pressure.
Know Your State's Laws
Some states have lemon laws; others rely on contract law. Know your rights before you buy.
