Shih Tzu: Personality
Go to Dog Breed Center |
Forums on Shih Tzu
All dog breeds have a purpose. Historically, the purpose of the Shih Tzu was to be a companion--and that's just what he wants to be. He simply desires to be with you. So don't expect him to hunt, guard, or retrieve; that's not his style. Affection is his dominant characteristic, and your lap is his favorite destination. He is happiest when he is with his family, giving and receiving attention. That said, the Shih Tzu is not a total couch potato. He's alert and lively and may bark at newcomers to his home. Don't worry, though; he'll make friends with your guests the minute they walk inside.
