Hi there. Here is my shih tzus Story. Our dog is a female puppy who is one year
old. We've never had shih tzus  before. I actually saw one for the first time
while jogging around our local lake. It was so cute, I had to get one. Well,
Bubbles is a small dog with short little legs. She's also more stubborn than a
country mule. My wife and I live in a residential area where there is some
traffic. I fancy myself somewhat of a runner. My favorite race is the San
Francisco Bay to Breakers. Our garage has a puppy door to the back yard. When I
come home and open the garage door she is usually in the house, but sometimes
she's in the back yard.

She hears the car and comes sprinting through the puppy door.

On several occasions I get out of my car and say "Bubbles to me" which
means run as fast as you can in the other direction. Well, I can run fast, but
not nearly as fast as she can. When this happens, I get to run an obsticle
course through neighbors' yards, over fences, around trees. When I get close she
smiles and runs in circles until I'm within two feet, then she sprints off in a
new direction. The only way to catch her is to corner her in a yard. When I pick
her up, I can't even scold her because she just wiggles and licks my face. That
dog is one heck of a runner.
