Welcome Cris413

Thank you for the warm welcome! I'm happy to find this site. We LOVE Shih Tzu and we currently have two 7 month old litter mates. Eli and Sophie. Our older Shih Tzu, Sasha and Sarai have passed. Two wonderful little dogs we still miss terribly.

Shih Tzu are just an amazing breed! So full of love and energy and while many other breeds have a lot of love....I'm not sure I've ever seen a breed with such animation and expression as Shih Tzu!

I'm looking forward to reading through the posts. And perhaps find some guidence as well...particularly raising litter mates and a few "quirks" I'm noticing that I didn't experience with our other Shih Tzu.

Thanks again for the warm welcome!

I haven't had much success uploading the pics. The instructions on the tech page are wonderful...it's operator error on my end that's the problem...
I'll keep working on it!
So glad I found this site....you all are just GREAT!

Aww bless you it's wonderful to have you here!

Well you keep working on them pics cos you will get hounded until we get some shiddie pics now

keep trying you will get there in the end

Thank you...and bless you too! Hubby will show me what I'm doing wrong when he gets home...and I just love all the pics I've seen. Total cuteness!

Welcome to the forum...can't wait to hear more about Eli and Sophie...as well as see lots of pics from them. You will love the girls here...and the few men here...lol!

XoXo-Stephanie and her Fur Baby Family!!

From us too

Thank you ladies! Still finding my way around....I'm enjoying the site...such nice people...and all the cute pups!

LOL...OK...I've somewhat managed to post a pic of my babies.
The top photo is Sophie
and the other is Eli
They didn't seem too thrilled to have their pics taken!

Why is it that all the Shiddies I've seen so far named Sophie/Sophia are just too damned cute.

Eli is a handsome fella too.

awww.......they are both just perfect!!!

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww they are so sweet, your babies are beautiful

awww... all! They are cuties! And they KNOW it! Especially Sophie. She will play the cute card at every turn. When she gets corrected she scampers right up with tail wagging and kiss kiss kiss.

Eli is more run away! Run away! But when you pick him up to let him know...it's OK...he lays his head on our shoulder and nestles.

Eli is tiny...he's 7.3 pounds and Sophie has just made it over the 10 pound mark. So Eli is catching up.

They are both sweet little pups and we just love them to bits!
