This is My Boomer.  He looks like a miniature of his daddy, Opie.  Was born to my Marsha and Opie year of 2007

Boomer Again Here 2007

Boomer is a real happy guy!

Funny, Funny Boomer Here!

This Little Beauty is a descendant of my first set of Shih Tzu (Yoko is her great grandma).  Her name is "Little Miss Muffin."  She is the daughter of my Christina and Brandy.  Christina is the daughter of Tia.  Tia is the daughter of Yoko and Leo.  Yoko is now retired.  She still lives here with us, as does Leo.  This baby is so precious, such a delightful personality and "tiny little thing."  Will be an imperial size as most of her background lines.  She is a shade of silver/blue with a reddish tint (from the Karyon lines of Brandy) with a black mask that has some silver throughout.  Very, very pretty little sweetheart of a girl.  And smart, oh how smart she is!  I had her sold, but she refused to leave me, and I am glad she made that decision.  We are very close.

Well, guess who this man is?  He is one of the top dogs here.  Duke is his name.  Another extremely happy, happy guy at Stain Glass Shih Tzu.  He loves his hair down in his face like this.  I can fix it back for him, but he prefers it just like this.  He is a "trotter."  He trotts all over the yard for us and keeps us entertained with his beautiful prancing and bouncing Shih Tzu ways.  He is a real charmer.  Intelligence is very, very high with guy as well.  He is a very smart Shih Tzu.  Love this guy, Dukie Boy.

I asked Duke to give me some good pictures, and I know he knew exactly what I asked him to do, so he posed here just for a few minutes.  Did not give me long at all to steady my camera for this shot, but he did give me the honors of just a few minutes of a pose.  He said, if you can't get the dag-gone picture done in a flat second, I am up from here and gone, and you know what, he did just that.  I got the picture though. HA HA HA HA.

Duke again here.  He is a real happy guy, just for a second he would allow me to see his face for these pictures and he would laugh and laugh.  He was having more fun trying to hide from me than I was having trying to catch a pose from him.  We both enjoyed this day of picture taking outside in summer August of 2007.

Here is Duke after a grooming session on November 29, 2007.  He is soooo intelligent.  He decided to actually give me a good picture of him, or at least I think it is pretty good.  Duke will come to be while I am at the computer, lay his head on my leg, look up at me and roll his head around, and roll his eyes around.  I can just hear him saying:  "I think you are sooooo wonderful and adorable and I just love you sooooo much."  So then I say back to him, and Duke I feel the same way about you!  He is a very special Shih Tzu.  He gives us more silver/blue and true blue colors than solid black.  He is turning more and more silvery, which I really like.  He was a very solid, solid black.

This is Gracie.  She is the daughter of Duke.  She has those same expressive, sparkly eyes as my Dukie Boy.  She has a lot of silvery color coming through her black coat of hair, which I personally like.  Gracie is a dear, sweet girl.  You see Wally in the background, Lucy and taffy back there too.  Tulip Tree ran past the camera too in the front here.  I was aiming for Gracie though.

Hey, look at my handsome boy Opie!  I love this boy sooooo much.  He is a top dog here, believe me!  He has his mouth holding a little different in this picture.  He has a perfect bite and beautiful teeth.  Look at that smile.  Oh how precious my Opie is, I love this boy too.  It does seem like my boys turn out the sweetest around here.  The girls are nice too, but they are just not as sweet as my boys are seems like.

And the last addition to us is our Chocolate Boy - Topper Topaz.  Happy, happy boy is he as well.  He has his own private room here and has ever since he arrived.  It took a little time for him to adjust when he first got here, but now he is one of the gang, yet still "special" as I have him in a private room, and he goes in and out of this room very well when I ask him.  He also goes to his room when he wants to rest sometimes when I don't ask him.  He is very smart also.  I hope for some beautiful chocolate babies from this guy and his personality is just Shih Tzu Perfect!

This is Tiny Big Red.  His dad is Opie (picture above) and my Bubbles, solid black.  He had a grooming session tonight 11-13-07.

Big Red Here.  He is my DOG!  11-13-07  I think he is a little doll.  And oh so sweet he is precious.

My Sweetie Pie, Big Red  11--13-07  Oh my God, what a hambone he is to me.  I just love this boy so much, and that vibrant red color of his.

Here him is again!  Mr. Big Red.  11-13-07

Smokey 1-2008 (True Blue Male with Blue Nose, and lighter eyes)  He is adorable and cuddly.  I am so happy to have him.  He was born to my silver/blue Coconut and red/white Karyon Brandy.  He is the grandson of my Yoko who is his same color, but with a black nose.  He has the smaller puppies in lovely shades of blue.

Above is Marshmellow.  He is the grandson of our Kennedy, and grandson of our Buffy, son of our Elizabeth and Brandy.  He is solid white with red ears.  There is mostly red and white in his background.   Picture taken 3-14-08
