What does "Imperial" Shih Tzu mean according to Websters Dictionary ? Of Superior or Unusual Size or Excellence Here at Imperial ShihTzu and the Chinese Imperial Dogbreed our Chinese Imperial Dog and Imperial Shih Tzu for quality, health and temperament. We prefer our AKC Shih Tzu and our Chinese Imperial Dog to have short level backs, no eye white, straight legs, baby doll faces and tiny noses on gorgeous heads and sweet expression.Size or color of our puppies are not our highest priorities, but when I get a beautiful Shih Tzu or one that has vibrant color, I am very pleased. As a Chinese Imperial and a ShihTzu breeder I prefer the origional smaller version of the breed that standard Shih Tzu was created from and to strive to mantain the same quality as the ShihTzu except we prefer ours origional parent of the Shih Tzu to be shown much smaller, shorter backed and less nose. We fondly call them " Imps " or Chinese Imperial Dog. Chinese Imperial and many Shih Tzu breeders feel the origional smaller version is the highly prized dog Many people refer to them as Tea Cup but that is not a correct term for a Shih Tzu. This term teacup is a poodle or yorkie term. Our Imperials and Shih Tzu are our family and we want homes where they will have loving parents that will feel the same about them. If you feel that you have that type of home for one of our puppies and desire to be considered for adoption, drop me an email or give me a call. Let's get to know one another. Later, if we both are still interested, then maybe you can drop by for a visit so that we can meet and you can meet my Chinese Imperial Dog and our Shih Tzu dogs.
