Shih Tzu (Retired)

Our prissy little Shih Tzu is proudly showing a full silky coat with facial hair pinned neatly back with a characteristic top knot. Only the best will do.

"The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog." (George Graham Vest)

When considering our history with dogs, there's little wonder they've become known as man's best friend. In the past they've aided us with hunting, herding and transport of goods. Today they still act as guard dogs, police dogs and are entrusted with aiding the blind and handicapped. Perhaps more importantly to many of us, they're loyal companions who love unconditionally. Here at Ohm Beads we're true animal lovers and are keen to see this special relationship immortalized in jewelry.

It's difficult not to be charmed by the adorable appearance and personality of the Shih Tzu. While tiny in size, these dogs have huge hearts and are famed for their outgoing, friendly personalities. Despite this they're brave little souls with a reputation for being alert watch dogs. Ruff.
