We have a new shih tzu puppy. When do you recommend their first haircut?

Hi Tammy,

Thank you for contacting me regarding your new puppy. To answer your question, you can usually start with a bath and cleaning up the face and feet areas. It's simple but with your breed of dog it is best to start them really early since grooming requirements are higher for them. It's good to get them used to it early on so it will be less stressful.

For more information, I would suggest that you call any of our stores and speak with any of knowledgeable team members who can assist you.

Thanks again for contacting me.
