Everything went very well. Renee Lewis made the process very easy. Her dedication, commitment, and love of the Shih Tzu breed was obvious. The 3 year old Shih Tzu Nik that we received in a wonderful addition to our home and family. He really gets along well with his new Brother Remy. I would definitely recommend Renee Lewis if you’re in the market for a Shih Tzu puppy or older dog‼️

I have to say that all the other reviewers are spot on with everything they've stated about Renee and Aleka Shih Tzu! It's been about 20 years since I had a shih tzu puppy so I felt like I had a huge learning curve. Renee answered every question and addressed every concern I had and CONTINUES to! I honestly don't know how she does it other than the fact that she's so professional, caring and deeply invested in what she does. My husband and I traveled many hours in just two days, and it was more than worth it to meet Renee and pick up our new puppy who's beyond fabulous in every way. He's very healthy, attentive, (which obviously makes for a very quick learner), and absolutely the most beautiful, adorable, affectionate puppy I could've ever asked for. He is a testament to her excellent breeding and training practices. I feel extremely grateful that Aleka Shih Tzu is on Good Dog. In my experience, breeders of Renee's caliber are simply uncommon. As far as I'm concerned, Renee is the best there is, and I will recommend Aleka Shih Tzu every chance I get!

After searching for my perfect Shih Tzu baby for several years, I came across the Good Dog app, which recommended Aleka Shih Tzu near my zip code. The breeder, Renee, is by far the most responsive, kindest, and most trustworthy expert I have ever met! She takes great pride in her puppies, as demonstrated by the outstanding quality of their health, temperament, and beauty. She took photos every week to update me on how my little guy was progressing, so by the time I took him home, I already felt I had known him since he was born. Renee also guided me on how to resgister him with AKC, as well as put together the most thoughtful care package to take home with my puppy! Her pricing is very reasonable considering the excellent quality of her puppies. My Barkley brings me great joy everyday! He is super smart, potty trained in no time, happy, gorgeous, and extremely outgoing. If my husband will allow it, I will definitely return to her for another puppy in the future! I whole-heartedly recommend Aleka Shih Tzu for the absolute BEST Shih Tzu puppies!

The experience we had with Aleka Shih Tzu was fantastic. Renai was awesome. She kept us updated with Gracie the entire time. She sent pictures all the time gave us very insightful information. You can tell she just loved Gracie . Gracie at 8 weeks old would go outside to go potty. I would highly recommend Aleka Shih Tzu for adding to your family.

Renee is an incredible breeder! Kiara is my 7th Shih Tzu. The breeder we always purchased from since my childhood has retired. I was very picky and patient finding a breeder. When I noticed Aleka Shih Tzu, I noticed just by her photos and felt in my heart that she is devoted to her dogs and takes dog breeding serious, which is essential for producing quality shih tzu babies. She goes above and beyond ensuring the litter is top quality by ensuring the parents are also in top health which many breeders tend to forget when being overwhelmed with these little balls of evergy. Our new puppy, Kiara, is probably the most highest quality shih tzu baby I have ever owned. She is the happiest and most excited puppy. She is just tickled pink over life! Though she is a total ball of energy, her tail just wags over everything and she acts like she is training to be the future dog boss of the house LOL. These are all signs of a perfect shih tzu puppy because she is easy to train at the same time. A perfect quality shih tzu will be full of life and energy as a puppy, then they suddenly calm down around 6 months and control their energy on their own. You want a puppy who is silly and full of life. She LOVES to eat LOL. Our vet said she is one of the healthiest and intelligent shih tzu he examined in a long time and asked all about the breeder so he can recommend her to clients. My Bailey is absolutely in love and totally fascinated how brave she is for her size. She was relentless for his acceptance and won his heart almost instantly. I can write all day about this breeder. She is a perfect example of a breeder who us focused on this one breed, and cares more of their quality of life and future, than the money. You will never find a puppy of this quality for this price. The price was the last thing I cared about. I love the way she cares about her buyers before selling her precious babies. Thank you for everything Renee. I hope you see this (I emailed back but not sure you saw it) and would love to connect someday because Kiara was so loved by you and her momma and I am sure she will love to see you again someday.

My Experience with Aleka Shih tzu(Renee)was Great!! she kept me informed on Cebu's growth, she sent me pictures and some videos. Renee also answered any questions that I had. I also love that he was introduced to the potty pad at an early age and is doing good with potty training. We are so happy that we chose Cebu, he is very smart,funny and loves snuggles. We LOVE our little Cebu(Ewok)
I cannot say enough great things about my experience with Renne! This process was seamless, extremely thorough, and thoughtful. She is a wonderful breeder, with a wealth of knowledge and great care for each puppy. We love our puppy so much, and could not be more thankful!! 10/10 recommend working with Aleka Shih Tzu!
