The time has come to add a new member to your family and you have decided on a Shih Tzu dog. The first thing you are going to need to do is contact a Shih Tzu breeder but this first step is also one of the most important steps you will make in your search.

The best place to start your search is with the national registry that is most recognized for dog breeders in the United States and that is the National Kennel Club. Pick up the phone and give the National Kennel Club a call at (865) 932-9680 and ask them to help you find the best possible Shih Tzu breeder in your area.

You can either mail the National Kennel Club for their most recent information of you can give them a call at (865) 932-9680. This is probably the best place to start when looking for a good Shih Tzu breeder.

The Internet may be better because a website can offer detailed information about a breeder and his business and that is the kind of information you are looking for.

It may be best to go with the Internet as it takes time to make a website and people with bad business practices usually do not take the time to create a detailed website.

If you do not have a vet then visit your local vet for advice or ask one of your family members or friends who have pets who their vet is and take it from there.

The world is a smaller place thanks to the Internet and you can access any kind of information you can ever want with a search of the World Wide Web. The Internet is home to many forums and message boards including valuable message boards and chat rooms dedicated to Shih Tzu breeders and dogs. Not only can folks on a Shih Tzu message board help you find a breeder but they can also answer any questions about Shih Tzu’s that you may have.

A Shih Tzu breeder is just as important as the dog itself as your relationship with your breeder is very important to you and your dog. Make sure you take your time looking for the right breeder and also make sure you feel completely comfortable with the breeder you finally decide on. Your family’s happiness, and your new puppy’s life, depend on you choosing a good breeder.
