Shih Tzu Hats

Shih Tzu translates to little lion, and the lion imagery comes from Buddhist culture and Chinese art. The breed lived with royalty through the Ming Dynasty, and the modern dog descends from just 13 dogs imported into England and Scandinavia between 1928 and 1952. The AKC Stud Book listed the breed in 1969. Owners describe a different royalty at home: iHeartDogs says they are not lap dogs, they are lap dictators, and a viral owner video listing a Shih Tzu's seven toxic traits includes being emotionally manipulative and never playing fetch. These Shih Tzu hats carry both halves. SHIH TZU MOM and SHIH TZU DAD are the badges, using the forms owners type into search boxes. HOLY SHIH TZU is the pun that already sells on dog shirts and tees at Walmart and eBay, and I DON'T GIVE A SHIH TZU is its cousin. The rest is the court: a dog bred for a palace living in a townhouse, SHIH TZU LITTLE LION DOG, ALL I NEED IS COFFEE AND MY SHIH TZU, SHIH TZU LAP DICTATOR, and a Shih Tzu who is emotionally manipulative. HOLY SHIH TZU and LAP DICTATOR each get a second colorway. Dog Mom caps with a breed name embroidered already sell, but a text-led Shih Tzu hat is the gap. Every design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat. Wear one yourself, or give it to the Shih Tzu owner in your family.
