Meet The Southern Charm Puppy Parents
Shih Tzus are as diverse as a box of chocolates, coming in various sizes and colors!
Our Shih Tzu parents range from 4 to 12 pounds.
Our Teacup Imperial Shih Tzus, affectionately known as
our "Teacup Treasures," are especially petite, weighing in at 3 to 6 pounds when fully grown,
while still maintaining the delightful Shih Tzu charm.
The most popular size with our clients are the Imperial's that range from 7-9 pounds full grown.
AKC Breed Standard specifies adult weight between 10 and 17 pounds. There's just more to love with a bigger Shih Tzu, often calmer & quieter than the smaller ones.
Explore a palette of traditional Shih Tzu colors, including Black & White, Tri-Color, Black Mask Gold, and venture into the world of rare and unusual hues such as
Chocolate (liver), Dobie (black & tan and chocolate & tan), Solid Black, and even Blue!
We invite you to meet the parents of Southern Charm Shih Tzus—
a delightful blend of charm, elegance, in a variety of sizes, and a kaleidoscope of colors!
