Say Hello to Bambi
Shih Tzu, 7 years old
My favourite thing about Bambi is...
She likes cuddles.
The biggest challenge with Bambi is...
She’s not good with others ie dogs and people due to being locked up at a young age (I rescued her).
The most surprising thing about owning a Shih Tzu is...
She’s quite clever :) and knows many commands!
What I wish I’d known about Shih Tzus is...
The time it takes to look after her fur!
Did you know?
An original Chinese breed standard for the Shih Tzu must be the most romantic ever written. It says (among other things) that they should have the head of a lion, the face of an owl, the eyes of a dragon, the tongue of a peony petal, teeth like grains of rice, ears like palm leaves, the back of a tiger, the tail of a phoenix, and the movement of a goldfish.
