All About Divine Pups: A Shih Tzu Legacy

What Makes the Shih Tzu Breed So Special

Shih Tzus are the perfect dog for families big and small. Their adaptable nature makes them a great choice for families with kids or anyone looking for a loyal, easygoing companion. Shih Tzu puppies enjoy moderate temperatures and love being indoors just as much as they enjoy a bit of outdoor play. These dogs are friendly, affectionate, and thrive in homes where they’re part of the family. Whether you’re in the suburbs or the city, a Shih Tzu fits right in.

Divine pups made me so happy when I found my Rolo (my dogs name). I was searching on a site by the namw Next Day pets for specific Houston breeds and every pup I adored was bread my divine pups. I reached out and from that moment forward everything was smooth sailing. I was interested in three dogs 1 yorkie and 2 Shih Tzu, so I set an appointment same day and met with Joseph as he introduced me to all three puppies I was interested in

Camille Nguyễn

We are thrilled with our beautiful baby boy. He has the best personality and he is a head turner. Our vet and groomer constantly compliment
how good looking he is. It is the quality of the puppies that divine pups breed. They are wonderful people, easy to communicate with and they love what they do. Even through their busy schedules they always returned my calls or text messages. I am so glad to have found them.

Thank you divine pups for giving us our little bundle of joy! They flew our puppy to Las Vegas for us. We had a great experience with a pet nanny hand delivering our baby to us. We got pictures along the way and were able to know how she was doing at all times

Jaqwon Hedrick Jefferson

Ara was super nice and very informative. She made the process so easy and even sent product recommendations to get us going. Our newest four-legged family member is doing well and it was a MAJOR plus that she came to us already trained to use puppy pads.

Stella Chiori

Ara and her husband are truly amazing people. She was able to find me the exact puppy I wanted, even though he wasn't listed on the website yet. My dog Blus is the most beautiful and sweetest doggie ever! He has a wonderful temperament and is very easy to train (he came puppy pad trained)! Everything about my service with Divine Pups was 5 stars! I can't wait to do business with you again soon!
