a little better.
    Hi, and thanks for stopping in. My name is Kathleen Snyder from  Binghamton, NY. I've been involved with the Shih-tzu breed for over 17 years.
     Along the way I've had the pleasure to work with some of lifes greatest companions .and was fortunate to have been able to research and study this breed with many shiht tzu breeders and exhibitors..
   . I was first intrigued by dog shows after acquiring my first Shih-tzu., and attending my first AKC dog show here in Binghamton, NY , as a spectator..
   While there ,I was fortunate enough to have met, and then been taken under the wings of Carol and Genevieve DeAngelis  from  Kailasa  Shih-tzu, who were, and to this day have been my mentors.
      Having entrusted me with my first male and female,for show and breeding,,all those years ago, the road for success was  ready to travel..
       Their encouragement and advice has enabled me to excell in this competitive sport of dogs.
       This, and also the many friendships I have  made along the way, will last a lifetime.
        Here at Kailing Shih tzu, we are very proud of our accomplishments over  the years, and have  always strived in our breedings , for dogs that excell in health, comformation, and beauty., ...show dogs and companions alike.
        Thank you for visiting ,and feel free to contact me with any questions you may have about  this glorious  breed..I'd Love to meet you !
