The Shih Tzu temperament is outgoing, happy and friendly. They are very alert and like to bark a lot which can make them effective watch dogs. The breed is usually friendly and lively and gets on very well with other dogs.

Shihs respond well to dog training, which is a necessary adjunct to keeping dogs as pets. Life with an obedient Shih Tzu will be a lot more rewarding than keeping a disobedient one.
