Facial Care & Coat Maintenance
Say goodbye to tangled fur and stubborn tear stains! Simple, budget-friendly grooming tools for smooth coats and fresh facial folds.
A must for daily brushing! The soft-tip bristles detangle sensitive Shih Tzu fur without scratching their delicate skin.
Slicker Brush with Protective Rubber Tips
Keeps facial folds clean and clears up tear staining around the eyes before it turns into reddish build-up.
Tear Stain Remover Wipes
Makes daily combing effortless and leaves their coat smelling amazing without weighing down long hair.
Coat Detangling Spray
Perfect for quick paw cleaning after quick pot-potty breaks outside so indoor floors and furniture stay clean.
No-Rinse Paw Cleansing Foam with Soft Silicone Brush Head
Shih Tzu Friendly Dining & Snacking
Prevent neck strain and messy facial hair at mealtime with these Shih Tzu-approved bowls and interactive treat toys.
Game changer for flat-faced breeds! The tilted angle makes eating easier and keeps long ears out of wet food.
Tilted / Elevated Ergonomic Ceramic Pet Bowl
Spread a little wet food or puree on this to keep them happily occupied during indoor downtime or grooming sessions.
Textured Lick Mat Silicone
Traditional water bowls constantly soak a Shih Tzu’s facial hair, leading to wet-beard staining and skin fold irritation. A lick-activated water bottle keeps their face completely dry all day.
No-Drip Water Bottle Dispenser
Indoor Living & Potty Setup
Practical indoor picks for a clean, odor-free home and a cozy resting spot for your small dog.
Saves so much money compared to disposable pads, plus they stay anchored to the floor so playful pups can't drag them around.
Washable & Reusable Potty Pee Pads
Not only does the donut design provide head and neck support, but the entire cover (or whole bed) is 100% machine washable. It holds its plush fluffiness even after multiple washes, which is a lifesaver for daily use."
Calming Fluffy Dog Bed
Regular floor cleaners don't break down the organic proteins in pet accidents, which causes dogs to keep re-marking the same spot. Enzymatic formulas break down smell at a molecular level so they won't go in that spot again.

Indoor Enrichment & Fashion
From lightweight toys sized just right for little jaws to cute accessories that keep long bangs out of their eyes, here are the fun extras your indoor pup will love!
Shih Tzus are smart little dogs that get bored easily. Hiding treats inside a fleece snuffle mat engages their natural foraging instincts and provides easy, low-impact indoor exercise.
Snuffle Mat Enrichment Puzzle
Standard tennis balls are often too large and tough on small Shih Tzu jaws. Flexible, soft latex toys are lightweight enough for them to fetch and carry around comfortably.
Small Dog Soft Latex Squeaky Toys
Protects their delicate airway while walking and looks super adorable doing it. Never attach a leash to a Shih Tzu's neck collar; a chest-distributing harness is essential for preventing trachea issues.
