RE: Dark Colored Shih Tzu

Shih Tzu's can change color till the day they pass on, some more so then others. Also shih tzus eyes can only be blue if their points are blue lips,eye rims, nose and pads. Liver shihtzus have yellow/green eyes. A liver nosed shihtzu will never have a black hair on their body. I have blues ,livers and standard colored shihtzus. My brindle and white is going to be 3 years old and she was a gold/red brindle and now is a silver brindle. She has changed the most as some colors do more so then others.

Hi I am a shih-tzu breeder and it is very normal for them to change colors. All of mine are either gold and white,red and white, brindle and white, and black and white.

Shih puppies always get lighter.If they have very dark spots- it's better not to shave them or the color dilutes-my baby Lolita-bought from puppyfinder:

I have a white with blue eyes and a white a liver with one blue and one green eye!
I got them from the puppyfinder website,they were flown to me.My little Mindy -the one with the ball- died last year-her kidneys stopped working-I have a particolor peke- Nikke and a gold and white one eyeliner shih.
If you want to visit the website petshed- you can buy revolution for a very economical price- 6 pack for 65 sounds good to you?
It sure is, specially if you have as many babies as I do!

I was wondering if it normal for Shih Tzus to change colors. When we got Brookln "Brooke" he was all black with white paws and a white chest. Now he is sort of brown on the bottom and kind of charcoal with white still. is that normal?

i have a shi-poo that is mostly black, with a bit of white on his chest and one white paw. he's the best! when i take him for his haircuts, his back becomes
more of a silvery gray...

benny is now 2 years old, and my best friend in the whole world...these dogs make the best friends, don't you agree?

Hi, I have a shih tzu x toy poodle that is all black with a flash of white on chest and beard. She was bread with a caramel shitzu and the puppy is mixed black and tan. We called him Chewie also as he reminded us of Chewie in Star Wars. We love our Mum/baby Bindi and the pups are so hard to part with. We'd keep them all....

I had to peek what a pretty pup! I had never seen
one this color and I think it is so much prettier than the white ones.

I had one who was completely black when young and as he became older turned the color of yours. I rescue Shih Tzus who have been abused or have major health problems. Have 6 right now! JoanDogs

No, I've never seen one this color - he/she is beautiful, tho. My sister has a black/white male and his brown daughter, tho. They are precious children!

RE: Dark Colored Shih Tzu

Yes, I have one that is very close to that, has a little white, though. Aren't they just adorable. I have a Bichon Frise also, looks kind of like a poodle.
