I'm the breeder behind Beauty's Shih Tzu (California) located in Manteca, CA. We are lifelong dog enthusiasts, and we’re excited to share our passion and purpose with others through our breeding program. We adore our dogs! They’ve enriched our lives in ways we never imagined, and we are so happy to be able to share the wonderful qualities of the breed with others. Owning a Shih Tzu is a beautiful experience, and it would be our honor to connect you with the perfect new addition to your family.
