Pien Ji Shih Tzu are bred for health, temperament, and conformation to the standard as set by the American Shih Tzu Club. In the process of breeding for show, wonderful pets are produced! My Shih Tzu live in the house, and are very social. As such, I have much less tolerance for temperament problems that produce, at times, a better show dog, but one much harder to live with. My feeling is that if you haven't produced a dog that people love to live with, you have failed. Pien Ji Shih Tzu come with an initial two week guarantee against contagious disease. This is to get you through the incubation period, and ensure to you that your puppy is healthy at the time of purchase. There is a two year guarantee against congenital defect. If your pup has RD (Renal Dysplasia- kidney disease), it should show up by that time, as should any eye problems (PRA- Progressive Retinal Atrophy, JC- Juvenile Cataracts) or liver problems and Von Wilebrand's (a clotting disorder). Kidney and eye problems are fairly common in the breed in general, I have not had any problem with either, and would immediately neuter any animal involved in producing any of these conditions, and I would need to know of any problems IMMEDIATELY. Pien Ji pups are sold on a spay/neuter contract unless sold for show. Your pup will come with a Starter kit, with all of the basics you need except a crate and bed. There will be enough food for three days to give you time to get the same food- my dogs are doing very well on the diet they are on. Your pup will have been wormed twice, and will have the first two puppy shots. I do not vaccinate for Leptospirea, as that shot is more dangerous to your pup than the likelihood of getting Lepto. I do not give rabies shots. Your puppy will not be able to go to your home until 12 weeks. This is the time prescribed by the ASTC. It allows for optimal socialization, and for the first two puppy shots to have been given. If at any time you no longer feel you can keep the pup, it comes back here per the contract. I do not want my babies ending up in rescue or the pound, and will be there to help if you have problems that don't allow you to keep the pup any longer. I will be there to help and support you with the pup for the life of the pup. If you have questions, I prefer you ask me first- in most cases I will be able to help you, and I will try to find that answer when I don't know. Please contact me with any questions. Charlee
