Shih Tzu

Shih Tzus come in variety of colors including black, white, gray, tan, and gold spotted to a mix of several-colored hairs. A model Shih Tzu should have a short snout, large eyes, a slight underbite, and a tail that waves above its torso. The Shih Tzu's hair can be styled in a short, summertime hair cut or a well-groomed long hair style like that used for conformation shows. Since this breed's hair continues to grow rather than shedding regularly, it is one of several breeds suggested as a hypoallergenic pet.
