i've been noticing my puppy shih tzu, which is 5 months old now.. will wet her own mouth downwards with her saliva when she mix with other puppy or adults dogs... i just couldn't figure it out what happen to her. When she see other pups or dogs around, she will not open her mouth at all, like got gold inside, eventually the saliva will start dripping from the side and wet the whole mouth until the front paws. But she is a hyper-active dog when she mix with other people. I just wonder whether anyone of u outside facing the same problem I had? Please advice.
my shih tzu is not having this problem but she tends to wet her mouth when she fights with other dogs. I think they are playing with the saliva. Not sure also.
By the way have you added your name onto the shih tzu list in the breed specific> utility group?
yeap.. i'm in the list few months back.. :) how old is ur shih tzu? hehehe.. it's so disgusting when u see the dog swing her head and the saliva will like slingshot to the left and right..

Mushu is 7 months now. She's a female but is hyper active also. She likes to fight with a pug which belongs to my housemate. How about yours? What's the name?
I didn't go for the PD trip because my gf's graduation is on that day. i still dunno wat to do with the saliva issue.. maybe i'll wait for another few days and see which sifu can help me out. :)
hello.............just wan to tell u that ur shih tzu is veli cute and adorable.............my shih tzu is veli fat.......i used to feed him wit food that i eat beside his dog food. That's why he is so fat now!
Thanks for the praise. Mushu must be very happy when she hears this. So how oldi s ur shih tzu? I don't feed mushu with other things except her own dog food. She's now 2.5kg and she's 7 months already.
Did u went to the pd trip? By the way have you added your name onto the shih tzu list?
i think it was becoz your dog was excited. my cockers also having the same situation when they meet other dogs, reach a totally new place. they'll jump up and down (forget all my commands) and later i have to hang a bucket on their neck to collect the saliva.
maybe u should bring her out more often so that she won't be so "sakai" (like mine) in future.
Wah..............ur puppy is so fit and slim. My shih tzu is oledi around 6 months but oledi weigh around 5k.g!! I din go to pd trip bcoz i'm still studying..............no time for the trip. By the way how to add name in the shih tzu list?
u can go to the specific dog breed under utility group look for the shih tzu list and add ur name in it.
My shih tzu is abit smaller in size as compared to other shih tzu. When people see her......they'll say she's small. Maybe we can meet at the 14/9 gathering? If you are going.
yeah.. i faces the same problem with u, fuikiaw.. the problem is.. whenever other people look at my shih tzu.. they will say it's not a pure shih tzu because the eyes look different.. and mine shih tzu is smaller than other people.. but who cares..... she is my dog.. a clever and cute dog..
