     We are a Christian home schooling family of nine living amongst the most beautiful farmland in Northwest Washington you will ever see. Nestled up against the Canadian border in Lynden, Wa. We live on a 2 acre island of land amidst raspberries, cranberries, blueberries and pasture.

    We own eight Shih Tzus - Lillie, Buttercup, Pansy, Shasta, Merrigold, Summer, Maddy & Sampson. We have always loved this breed as they are hardy dogs, wonderful with children and NOT yippers. We do not care for the yippy breakable sorts :) We exist to bring you a sturdy, healthy family dog.

    Our dogs are kept mostly outdoors in spacious new kennels. They each have an indoor room with food , fresh bedding(heated when the need arises) and an outdoor run where they can sit in the sun.

    Being a native to the royal imperial palaces of China, these dogs do well with mildly cold temperatures. However, they much prefer to be indoors at all times, pampered like royalty. That is, after all, what they REALLY are...

    Our animals are kept clean and well managed, come see our kennels for yourself. The dogs are taken out for runs in our pasture when weather permits.

Thomas. The phsyco attack cat.
Cats afraid of dogs? No.
Around here all the dogs are
afraid of this cat.
He stalks unsuspecting dogs.
From 7lbs to 80lbs they all fear The Cat.
Be afraid, be very afraid.
And don't...turn...your back.

This is our daughter with a litter of 5 Shih Poos in her lap...one happy little girl!

We are sure to raise the best Shih Tzus in Whatcom County. Area vets and new owners have told us so. If you have any questions please contact me.

You are welcome to come to our home and visit with the pups to see if they are right for you, no pressure to buy. We just appreciate when you commit to come, that you do just that. Please call to let us know you can not make it. We put our daily life on hold to make a special time just for you.

Read below to learn more about what you get when you choose a pup that has been raised at our home. Ask questions!! Get informed before buying.

Why purchasing a puppy from our family is a great choice...

Our Puppies...

Have a 5 DAY 100% puppy back/money back written guarantee if puppy is deemed unhealthy in ANY WAY by your vet. Buy with confidence, have peace of mind.

Have AKC registration papers(if applicable) to go home with puppy, no waiting and wondering if they will arrive.

Come with a portfolio containing a detailed health record for your vet, AKC paperwork(if applicable) & information to start your pup out right. This helps to make the transition from our home to yours an easy one.

Are fully weaned and sent home with a starter bag of puppy's food and a TOY you choose from our toy basket.

They are socialized with respectful children, adults, dogs big and small. We get wonderful compliments on our family friendly dogs. They run to you, not away from you. It is up to you to continue that wonderful start.

Will be given first shots at least 24 hours before pick-up. We will not immunize before 7 weeks of age, we recommend NOT immunizing at all until 12 weeks, but this is for you to research, decide and request.

Are Worm-free! Wormed on strict schedule using Pyrantel Pamoate starting at 2 weeks of age. Worms in puppies can lead to more problems than just weight loss. Diarreah, coughing, vomiting are common. Only healthy, round food filled bellies here!

ARE easily paper/puppy pad trained to keep those first messes where you'd like them.

Have had all dew claws removed. This prevents the dog from three things. 1. A forgotton ingrown dewclaw nail can grow in a tight circle and then penetrate the leg. 2. Having a now costly surgery later in life to have them removed. 3. Having the dog chew them off himself...yuck & infection.

Mamma and Papa are owned and kept here with us!(with the exception of our poodle stud)
