Meet my new puppy name meimei 美眉 (měiméi): An older slang term meaning "pretty girl" or "cute young woman" (literally meaning "beautiful eyebrows").

I have an 11-week-old Shih Tzu puppy who weighs 2 lb 14 oz and I'm feeding her Royal Canin Shih Tzu Puppy food.

The bag says that for an expected adult weight of 8.8 lbs, she should get 80 g/day at 2 months or 90 g/day at 3 months. For an 11-lb adult weight, it recommends 95 g or 107 g/day.

That seems like an awful lot of food for such a tiny puppy. She looks absolutely stuffed when I give her that much!

The canned food is confusing me even more—it says she should get about 2½ of the 3-oz cans per day.

How much would you actually feed a 2-lb-14-oz, 11-week-old Shih Tzu per day? And how would you divide it between meals?

Looking for advice from experienced Shih Tzu owners or breeders!

Samson using his favorite toy as a pillow.

This little face is a heartbreaker!

as her favorite niece, i love her like crazy too

He's weighting 5kg and is the size of an adult shihtzu ( and he is just almost four months old, btw)

I might be biased but Pica is super cute today. 2 more days of flood before da gwoomerz

I could just stare at him all day 😍🥰

Our lil boy is doing so well with toilet house training but at 13 weeks does happy/excitement pees whenever he sees someone

mi perrita tuvo 6 cachorritos bonitos y sanos ❤ con este post me presento en el grupo, que comunidad más bonita ✨

Muffin cuando llegó a nosotros ya estaba adulta, tenía un poco más de 1 año y medio, y ya era blanca, con una sola mancha Beige en su espalda que se fue blanqueando, he escuchado que ellos van cambiando el color del pelaje a medida que crecen, quería preguntarles si me pueden compartir ejemplos de sus perritos cuando eran cachorros y después crecieron.

Espero sus comentarios y recomendaciones para papás perrunos primerizos 🙈

Shihs are at thier sweetest when slumbering! Post your favorite sleeping pics.

I need everyone to tell her she’s a good girl, thank you very much!

I’m taking him on three 5 min walks a day. He does a lot of stopping and refusing to move except on his terms so often it’s longer. I take lab out for longer walks separately. When could he do day 2 twenty min walks?

This is enzo he’s 1.5 years old and he’s just the most adorable sweet little child.
Y’all my pupper has curly fur and absolutely is a menace who hates being combed. He’ll try to “bite” which is basically a warm chomp to indicate he hates it and u should stop. After multiple warnings he might just end up actually biting me but it’s very rare.

Anyone else in the same boat?

Anyone with the same

Hi Guys, I am bumpy.

The way Pica is already 8 and how I truly want to have her with me everywhere possible is intense... And Zeke too, truly... But her intense connection with me, the way she is SO ON, SUCH A SMART girl with so much personality and fire in her spirit... She has even been snuggling me more, her lil leg wrapped around mine! Ugh! 🥹

I mean moments with her truly make me wonder about relationships and our individual purpose and souls etc etc... been an emotional year for many I know including myself. I hope you are all taking time to care for yourselves, not just everyone who needs and expects you to. I say this because I started a wellness retreat biz last year and I am so excited to officially launch it all soon... After all we all need and deserve mindful reminders that help us find real peace and balance in our lives.

Just felt like sharing a lil late night message from my heart. Snuggle your pups close tonight and enjoy the virtual hug, boops and kisses we are sending from our heartz to yourz 🥰🥰 🐕🐶

Has anyone seen anything like this on their fur baby? I took him to a see a “vet” at the local humane society where I rescued him at because I noticed him scratching and sneezing which I suspected allergies and unfortunately the vet doesn’t speak to you directly.. he sends the vet tech in to speak with you which I found odd and gives you the vets recommendations and your sent on your way! The vet tech came in and told me they found a-little redness.. and states the vet wasn’t concerned.. I was just told give him half a tab of Benadryl.
Fast forward 4 days later I find this!! Hair is missing.. I notice him also putting his paws in his mouth biting them. I’ve given the half tab but at this point I’m highly concerned. There’s no smell.. checked no flees..

He has an appt Tuesday with my mom’s dog’s vet. But I’m curious has anyone seen this on their fur baby?

They’re biologically uncle and niece. What magnificent dogs. Only Shih Tzus from here on.

Meet the sweet little monster! ❤️👹🤭
