Table of Contents
According to DNA studies, thelovable Shih Tzu with the long, flowing coat is one of the 14 ancient breeds ofcanines (dogs) originating in Tibet around 800 BC.
Depictions of the ancient Shih Tzuappear in tapestries and documents dating as far back as AD 624.
The Shih Tzu is the closest knowndescendant of Senji, the prehistoric Chinese wolf.
Although the exact origin andhistory is open for debate and cant be known for certain, there is no doubtthis dog holds a special place in the hearts of all who have met them.
Many believe that the Shih Tzubreed was developed by Tibetan monks who offered the royal temple dogs as giftsto the emperors of China.
The Shih Tzu has been known by atleast seven different names throughout its long history. The original, completename of the Shih Tzu is Tibetan Shih Tzu Kou, meaning Tibetan Lion Dog. Theirlion-like facial features were revered because it is said that Buddha rode toearth on the back of a lion.
The Shih Tzu has also been namedafter one of the most beautiful women of China, Xi Shi Quan, which was basedon the name Xi Shi.
Most humans terribly mispronouncethe name Shih Tzu as their current modern name is of Chinese origin, it ismore correctly pronounced phonetically as She Zoo or Sheed-Zoo.
The name Shih Tzu refers to eitherone dog or many dogs as it is both singular and plural.
The Shih Tzu was raised in Chineseimperial palaces by eunuchs for the pleasure of the nobility, and anyone foundowning one of these sacred dogs outside of the palace would be put to death.
During the Ming and ManchuDynasties, Shih Tzu were used as bed warmers and placed at the feet of the emperorsand empresses to generate heat on cold nights. They were so highly prized thatthe dogs would be allowed to dine at the Emperors table.
Dowager Empress Tzu Hsi (Cixi),who ruled in China from 1861 through 1908, considered the Shih Tzu to be sacred.Much of the breed standard today is a result of the high standards and careful breedingin the world-renowned kennels of Pugs, Pekingese and Shih Tzu.
Empress Cixi was personally involvedin the careful supervision of the breeding kennels throughout her lifetime andattempted to keep these three imperial breeds separate.
The actual breeding was carriedout by palace eunuchs who, without sanction from the Empress, secretly crossedthe breeds in order to both reduce the size of these dogs as well as produceunusual and desirable markings. That gave the Shih Tzu the unique characteristicsthat make them different from the Tibetan Lion Dogs that have become todaysLhasa Apsos.
