Get to know Poppy

Shih Tzu, 6 years old

🌆 City dog
🍼 Lives with children

My favourite thing about Poppy is...

Crazy and feisty, but loving and fun too.

The biggest challenge with Poppy is...

Very fussy with her food.

The most surprising thing about owning a Shih Tzu is...

Very loyal and loves her mama's lap.

What I wish I’d known about Shih Tzus is...

Nothing, she is perfect to me.

Did you know?

Despite originating in China in the 17th century (or perhaps even earlier) the Shih Tzu dog breed was hidden from the West, and was largely unknown until the 20th century.
