How to Socialize Shih Tzu with Children and Large Dogs?
Training 3/2/2017
Even though Shih Tzus are smaller than many other breeds, size doesn't matter to them. These little dogs love to roam around with, socialize with, and play with dogs that are much larger. This is critical for them, particularly at a young age, so they don't have "unreasonable fears" of new people, situations and dogs. However, it is up to you as their owner to manage new encounters, from setting them up to monitoring play between dogs, to ensure that socialization has a positive impact on your pet.
