Leanne has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies. You'll also have the chance to share a bit about yourself and what you're looking for in a new companion. Together, you'll choose the puppy that's right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.
Please contact the breeder to get more information about pricing.
Leanne may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Leanne offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don’t hesitate to reach out to Leanne directly.
I'm very careful who I let around my puppies because I don't get them vaccinated until they're nine weeks. Since I work from home, I'm free to entertain and interact with them, or I'll have friends come over to play with them (while wearing shoe covers). I also take them to shows and let some trusted people play with them in my show RV. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Household Desensitization and Sound Stimulation.
All puppies are vaccinated and taken to the veterinarian on a regular basis.
Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates. While Sing-Yu Shih Tzu hasn’t shared specifics yet, we encourage you to reach out directly to learn what thoughtful extras they may include to help your puppy transition comfortably into their new home.
Leanne offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.
“We don't ship our puppies, but you can come to our home to pick them up upon purchase. ”
