These playful and energetic little canines
make friendly companions, and are good dogs for apartment dwellers.
Potential owners should be advised, however, that the Shih Tzu's beautiful,
long-haired coats require frequent combing and grooming. Titles in the Pet
Handbooks series are filled with detailed pet-care advice and feature vivid
color photos as well as instructive line art. All Barron's Pet Handbooks are
written by experienced breeders, trainers, and veterinarians. They focus on
all major aspects of owning and caring for a pet, including acquiring,
proper feeding, housing, health care, breeding, and where applicable,
training, exercise, and grooming. |
