How much does a Shih Tzu puppy cost?

Based on our internal marketplace analysis from the last 6 months, a Shih Tzu puppy typically costs between £700 and £1100, with an average price of £900. Note that premium prices usually reflect Kennel Club (KC) registration and litters from parents with verified health tests, such as hip and eye scores, which we strongly recommend for health security. Market data verified: 15th July, 2026

Where can I find a Shih Tzu puppy for sale in Sunderland?

You can find Shih Tzus through our localized search, which filters for licensed and Kennel Club Assured Breeders in and around the Sunderland area. Under UK law, any breeder producing three or more litters a year must hold a local council license. We recommend always visiting the puppy at the breeder's home to view the license and observe the mother (Dam) interacting with the litter to ensure high welfare standards.

What are the typical traits of female Shih Tzu puppies?

Female Shih Tzus are often a bit smaller and may be more independent than males, but they're equally affectionate, intelligent, and playful.

Are female Shih Tzus easier to train than males?

Training success depends on the individual dog and consistent training, not sex. Female Shih Tzus generally learn quickly and respond well to positive reinforcement.

When is the best time to spay my female Shih Tzu puppy?

Spaying is recommended to prevent unwanted litters and reduce certain health risks. Consult your vet for advice on the ideal timing based on your puppy's health.
