About Shih Tzu Dogs

Shih Tzus are charming, affectionate little dogs bred for centuries as royal companions. Their warm, trusting nature and love of people make them wonderful therapy dogs and family pets. They're content and happy as long as they're with their favorite humans.

Adopting a Shih Tzu means gaining a devoted lap companion who brings warmth and joy to your daily routine. Their adaptable nature makes them perfect for apartment living, and their gentle temperament makes them great with children and seniors alike.

Winter

22°F to 38°F

Dec – Feb

Boston winters are cold with significant snow, icy sidewalks, and frequent nor’easters. Paw wax and booties protect against road salt irritation. Keep outdoor time shorter during wind chills and have indoor activities ready for blizzard days.

Spring is slow to arrive in Boston with cool temperatures lingering into April. As snow melts, the Esplanade and Boston Common become pleasant for walks. Watch for mud on trails in the Blue Hills and Arnold Arboretum as the ground thaws.
