The colours of love... Shih Tzu colours!

"Kiwi Daiquiri Over Ice" at six months

I have been raising Shih Tzus for the past 20 years and have mostly gold and white or black and white puppies with the occasional Black tuxedos and, more rarely, gold with a black mask. Most of the puppies from my gold and white line are of the standard size; that is the females grow to between 9 and 11 pounds with the males slightly bigger. The occasional male will top out to 14 pounds but that is unusual.

The puppies from the black and white line tend to be smaller in size. One of my males weighs only 5 pounds, which is exceptional, as most of the dogs are about 7 pounds for the females and 8 pounds for the males. The black tuxedos also are on the smaller size - around 7 to 8 pounds. Occasionally a black may get to be larger.

The black and white or "Black Tuxedo" dogs come from the so-called "Imperial" line. This is not a recognized variation of the Shih Tzu either in the US or Canada. They do not breed true. That is, two very small dogs can and probably will produce a litter of both small and larger pups.

My puppies are guaranteed for 5 years and any genetic defect, except umbilical hernias. Umbilical hernias are very common in Shih Tzus and do not affect the dog in any way. For appearance sake, the vet will usually repair them when the dog is spayed or neutered. You may also return your puppy at any time during the first 2 months if you find he/she does not meet your expectations or does not fit in with your family. In that case, you may have a refund or pick another puppy.

Below are some of our adopted puppies... you can see how beautiful they are. Yours will be too!

Cleo (Symara's African Queen) and Symara's Little Ceasar are the proud parents of 3 girls and 2 boys born March 26th 2004.

Cleo's puppies are mixed, one of the blacks is very small at the moment and the gold girl will be a beautiful dog when grown. Most likely a standard size around 9 pounds but will be pale gold with a black mask.

Callie (Symara's Calpurnia) and Ceasar have 3 black tuxedo boys and one Tuxedo girl born March 31st 2004.

The black tuxedo litter are more likely to remain small as Callie weighs only 5 pounds herself.

Nayla (Lucky Lady Nayla) and Caesar had 4 girls on April 5th 2004

Nayla's puppies will be a little larger but very laid back as Nayla has a superior personality, very loving and gentle.She is also the quietest and her puppies take after her.

Ceasar was the father of all three litters as he is the smallest of my males weighing just five pounds when in trim. He is a little portly at the moment as he lives with a friend and is very spoilt. Some of the puppies available will be of the smaller size weighing under 7 pounds at maturity. These are the so called American "Tiny" or "Imperial" Shih Tzu.
