I dearly miss our family Shih Tzu, Toby, who we had for 12 years until he passed away peacefully in his sleep last December 2022. He was the sweetest, most loving fur baby we had. ❤ He was loved by us from beginning to end and was the proof that Shih Tzus are the best. 🐶
My ShihTzu was my best friend for seventeen years He passed away and I could not stand That so I got another who is Thre years now He is friendly and lovely.
@sharonderuyter1708 yes, i think all dog breeds should have another dog companion to fill in the gaps that a human can not provide. I have a Shih Tzu and a Japanese Chin that are only 3 weeks apart in age that i got on the same day.
My year old female doesn't like being petted much, unless it is her idea, then she'll jump up next to you and cuddle. This is her overall personality and always has been her mother is the same way. Now her 6 month old brother from a different litter is the opposite, he loves to cuddle but is sometimes too energetic to lay still for long, but he comes back for more after he runs around for a while. My female also loves to sit and just stare at you, this is common with Shih Tzus and nobody knows why but it isn't aggression or because she "hates" you. The growling and/or snapping at you I agree is not a good sign, but if they mouth or accidentally nip you when excited, especially puppies, it doesn't mean they are mad or hate you, they investigate everything with their mouths. Also, not All Shih Tzus want to be lap dogs, they have too much energy for that. I think ths best advice is just to learn your dog's personality, quirks and body language because like people, they are all different. I just didn't like this 'your dog hates you" message.
My ShihTzu is a extremely excellent well behaved has never growed at me or anyone else. He is a diabetic medical alert service dog. He goes everywhere with me.
I have a male shih tzu puppy now 10.5 mths old. He is adorable and full of life. Potty training is something you need to work hard on however by six mths he was totally house trained. He loves people and loves meeting other dogs when we walk him in our local parks and neighborhood. We had a maltese, a bischon poo and now our Noah shih tzu. He is all white and looks just like a maltese but has the u derbite of a Shih tzu....we adore him❤❤❤ We were blessed to have found him after our Bischon passed last July.
I had to 😂😅laugh at the picture of a bearded collie under the caption (how to tell if your Shihtzu hates you. I have had 5 Shihtzuhs in my life and they were the best dogs ever! So sweet, funny, loving and clean. My last little girl was only 13 and had to put her down as she had cutaneous lymphoma and was misdiagnosed for over 3 months. 😢 I miss her terribly bad. She was the sweetest dog ever and beautiful!
My shihtzu has a underbite and looks like she’s giving us a cheesey grin 😁. She’s a little sad because she’s lost her beagle friend and she’s not fixed for safety reasons and gets a little sad after being in heat. She’s my sweet little girl and we love her. I do think she’s a little sad so I am trying to give her extra attention. ❤
Some of these are territorial behaviours and some are subjective and depends on the dog. Shih tzus all have very unique personalities, that's part of their appeal. Mine is very loving and sweet, she likes to play sometimes but very quiet compared to most shih tzus. Some of this doesn't necessarily mean they hate you
I also had these behaviors from one of my16 year old shitzu at the time. She died and now I have her litter sister left and she'll be 18 years old in July of this year.2023
Well.. We trained my Shih Tzu, and he did not train us, from day one I practiced tactics with him to understand household rules, and invested in a trainer. My dog is sweet, but very stubborn. 😅🥰
Just got my baby! I absolutely love him! He seems to love me! I hope he loves me! You just never can tell Anyway, he’ll have the very best of everything I can possibly give him, so I guess we’ll see how we get on
That’s a Shitzu on the tag line? They’re cute even all natural 😊 Good advice to take them to the vet to investigate their health. red gums can make them really hurt ⚠️
My mums has anxiety and dementia and he growls at her picture of elvis. However he does growl if you try and get in the bed and he doesnt want to even move an inch. 😂they are lovely companions and he was only like that due to dementia. But he doesnt like elvis 😂
No my Shih Tzu has non of these issues. She loves me so much. They are incredible dogs that are very loyal and loving. If you ignore them and treat them bad they can get depression. Plus they have very bad eating habits. Some days they wont eat. Some days they want to eat everything. They act like they are a princess and want to be treated like one. They are very stubborn at times. The don't like to eat the same thing twice in a roll. You have to change up there food in 3 days. They can be very strange indeed. I need to find a male to breed my Shih Tzu. She is going on 3 years old and she is showing us that she will be a great mother. I just don't know how to find another breader.
I’m wondering why my part shih tru. Humps me when i try to get up after play or when we arrive home from a trip to town and we arrive home, i get out of the car and he humps me. How should i see this and can i stop it? Sj
I am not an expert on the subject, but dogs hump other dogs, and people, to let you know that they’re the boss. My female Shih Tzu always humped her sister when we had company. She was the boss!!! (In her mind😂🤣)
Jumping is a display of dominance, male/female alike. My Male started that around 6 months. I pushed him off, told my NO DIRTY, he stopped after a while.
Shih Tzus are still closely related to wolves - if you stand up to them w/o fear, they will respect you. This piss ant video does nothing to make rules for shih-tzus, instead it make rules for the owners.
You shouldn’t own any animal then if you’re not willing to change toxic behavior for an animal YOU CHOSE to take responsibility for when getting a pet. People like you just shouldn’t own a pet at all if you’re not willing to be a responsible pet owner

My Shih Tzu s love me and I am loved by them. There is nothing like being woke up by two Shih Tzu licking your face.
I see you have 2 shih tzus. Would you recommend getting 2 rather than 1. We are retired and home all day most days. Thanks.
@sharonderuyter1708 yes, i think all dog breeds should have another dog companion to fill in the gaps that a human can not provide.

This is how I get woken up every morning

My chase loves me n I love him. He is a very good companion.
My dog was very old, and he couldn’t hear or see. All though all of this is what he did, he was just very old

If you can't pronounce the breed name correctly, I find it hard to believe anything said. All of this is applicable to all dogs.
And putting a different breed in the thumbnail 🤦🏼♂️
I love my Shih Tsu❤❤❤❤.
I have the happiest Shih Tzu.
Why have you used the picture of a bearded collie under the headline shih tzu lol
Came here to say the same thing....and a buncha those dogs in the vid werent either 😂😅
Like any dog. If you feed them they will like you.
Yes, my shitzu hates me!!!😢😢😢😢😢😢 I adopted him from the street and I can't do anything with him.
I have one also abandoned, it's been 3 yrs now, Humphrey is ok
I somehow never like small dogs...always felt irritated watching little goblin 🤣🤣
“Your dog is using your house as a toilet” That’s why they’re call Shit Zoo……
No its called.... You did not take the time to potty train them properly!
my zuchon is doing all of this. going to the vet to see why.
My shih tzu loves me so much what you talking about ?
I’m wondering why my part shih tru. Humps me when i try to get up after play or when we arrive home from a trip to town and we arrive home, i get out of the car and he humps me. How should i see this and can i stop it? Sj
I am not an expert on the subject, but dogs hump other dogs, and people, to let you know that they’re the boss. My female Shih Tzu always humped her sister when we had company. She was the boss!!! (In her mind😂🤣)

I think my Max hates me LOL.
Isn't the dog in the thumbnail not even a shih tzu?
I have no enemies
Why she hates me suddenly 😢
Well sometimes they are just suffering from indigestion or leg pain.
@hazyhazy8435 @DrTiwade I’m going through this now. His attitude change drastically from day to night
Mean bite lots
If your in my house ...and not in love with me go find another home buddy get out
This happens when abused
0:48
feeling is mutual then what a nasty little specimen of hound-dom
You obviously should find a loving home for your Shihtzu. I've never met one who wasn't loving, smart, playful, and loyal.
You've obviously never had one.
Oh come on...shih tzus are very loving dogs.
Just get rid of the dog...easy solution
Facts. Those type of dogs are pest anyways.
You shouldn’t own any animal then if you’re not willing to change toxic behavior for an animal YOU CHOSE to take responsibility for when getting a pet. People like you just shouldn’t own a pet at all if you’re not willing to be a responsible pet owner
