Grooming You Shih Tzu Puppy
Grooming your shih tzu includes doing the daily maintenance topknot. This is one way of preventing the hair of your shih tzu from breaking. It will be better if you start training your puppy early. If you don’t know how to make a maintenance topknot, this article will teach you how to do it for your shih tzu puppy. This topknot is usually done on puppies age two to six months (depending on the length of the puppy’s hair).
But before you proceed, make sure you have all the things needed in grooming your shih tzu. You will need brush, steel comb, pin tail comb, japanese rice paper, cornstarch and latex bands.

Hi! Your articles have been of great help to us first time shih tzu owners. I would like to ask you about the eye cleaners that you use on your babies. Could I use the regular visine daily use? He’s got a lot of tear stains and I’ve been trying hard to remove them. Does this eye cleaner also helps in eliminating the stains? Hope you could help me out. Also, I’m using a powder mix of cornstarch, baking powder and little saly as his dry shampoo. Is this mixture ok with the dog? My baby is now 5 months old. Hope you could help me out. Thanks a lot!
Where can I buy pet grooming equipment like pet grooming table/arm, stand blower, etc?thanks so much..your reply will be much appreciated =)
You made it seem so easy. Thanks!
Great instructions and very clear close-ups. By the way, the dog is absolutely GORGEOUS!
