Shih-Tzu: An Ancient Breed of Dog Now Found in Banjarmasin

Shih-Tzu is one of the oldest dog breeds originating from China. However, now you don’t have to look far to find them.

The Shih-Tzu breed is small and elegant, with a body slightly longer than its height. They have short snouts, noses, lips, and eye rims that are liver-colored for liver-colored Shih-Tzus, blue for blue-colored Shih-Tzus, and black for other colors. Their ears hang down, and their tails are covered in thick fur. Dewclaws, the claws on the inside of their legs, are sometimes removed. Their fur is dense, long, and flowing downwards. The fur above their eyes is often tied up to form a topknot. Shih-Tzus also have long beards and mustaches, as well as short fur on their muzzle.
