How To Buy The Right Shih Tzu Puppies For Sale
When the term Shih Tzu is mentioned, most people will think of little yellow puppies that are cute and cuddly. Some people may even think of Shih Tzu puppies for sale in USA as the perfect pet for their kids or grandkids. But before making an immediate decision to buy puppies from a Shih Tzu breeder in the USA, you should be aware of certain facts that would help make your decision better.
Shih Tzu puppies for sale in USA could be from China, Korea or some other Asian country. But you shouldn't get your hopes up. These puppies are just as healthy as American Shih Tzu puppies, if not much healthier, so their health problems can be treated by your vet. Besides, breeding dogs from these countries is also illegal in the US. So if a breeder says he can ship you American Shih Tzu puppies, run away as fast as possible!
Shih Tzu puppies are very active and happy dogs. So even if you live in a small apartment, or apartment living alone, you can still have a healthy and happy Shih Tzu puppy. Keep in mind that breeders usually only have a few dogs, maybe two or three. But with regular and frequent visits to the breeder's office, you can gradually add to your dog's litter.
With a pet shop in your area, getting a Shih Tzu puppy is not a bad choice either. Pet shops usually do not sell purebred Shih Tzu puppies, so chances are your pet Shih Tzu puppy wouldn't have been tested for Shih Tzu disease, which is why it comes with a tag saying it's a purebred Shih Tzu. However, pet shops also have Shih Tzu puppies for sale, but usually at very expensive prices.
Shih Tzu puppies for sale can also be found in private ads. Many people advertise their puppies for sale online. One advantage of buying online is that you can compare prices between different Shih Tzu breeders. Keep in mind though that not all Shih Tzu breeders are reputable. Another alternative to private online breeders is to look in breed rescue groups. There are also some Shih Tzu rescues that have a pet shop division.
If none of the options above work, then your next option would be to go to a local breeder. A good breeder will be more than willing to talk to you about all the necessary things you need to know about Shih Tzu puppies, such as health care requirements, diet, grooming, and training. A good breeder will also have pictures of the puppies they are selling. Ask questions, and ask right away how old the puppies are, because an adult Shih Tzu puppy needs special care. Also ask about the breeder's living conditions, because a healthy and happy Shih Tzu puppy is one that can serve you for many years to come.
