Description: My Shih Tzu pendant may be small, but it has a lot going on! (Look carefully and you can see her tongue sticking out!) And of course the pendant has a bow to contain the flowing silver locks. I’m curious as to how the ancient Chinese groomed this dog blessed with the flowing locks. Perhaps each dog had its own hairdresser following it around and sorting out trouble spots in the wondrous coat before they became problematic! I’ve read that pugs had their own servants, but those servants must have had it easy compared to the ones dealing with these little dogs! According to one source of information, the Shih Tzu had been established in Tibet for centuries before they began to appear in China. Starting in the time of the Manchu dynasty in the 1500s, a Chinese visitor to Tibet who was an important personage was presented with a pair of Shih Tzus as a gift. The Peking Kennel Club has a wonderful description of the attributes of a good quality Shih Tzu which includes “a lion head, a bear torso, camel hoof, palm-leaf ears…” I don’t quite understand the camel hoof part, but it is quite fanciful! This sterling silver Shih Tzu pendant could be a lovely Shih Tzu lover gift. Fans of other breeds can visit my cast sterling silver dog pendant home page |
