Tarry Home Tzus: the home of the Chinese Chrysanthemum Dog: Bokkie's New Litter details: Bokkie's pups just 24 hours

Shih Tzu's are wonderful whelpers and good mothers. Because I have only bred Bichons before (all white), I am finding the colour aspect of Shih Tzus fascinating. Bokkie, mother was a solid gold when born. When she came to us she then had black tips on her hair but gold under and she turned to silver - amazing! I can't wait to see these pups develop their colours.

Bokkie: Mummy!
She was born dark and had gold undercoat and black on the tips of her puppy fur. She is now a most beautiful silver; it will be very interesting to follow her pups and see if any of them grow up to be her colour too.
A very tired but happy Silver Shih Tzu Bliss Bomb!
