The Shih Tzu is a long-haired, low-shedding breed that is often considered hypoallergenic, making it a popular choice for families and people with mild pet allergies.
Known for its calm, gentle, and affectionate personality, the Shih Tzu forms strong bonds with its family and is especially loving and patient with children.
This breed is well suited for apartment living due to its small size and moderate energy level. Shih Tzus require less exercise than many other breeds and are happy with short daily walks and indoor playtime.
Their beautiful, flowing coat requires regular grooming to keep it healthy, clean, and tangle-free.
