As a head study breed my primary focus was on finding broad round heads with short square muzzle, tip tilted nose with good stop, a further consideration was length of leg, good bone, sturdy specimens with a deep broad chest, followed by a combina­tion of other elements that make up the Standard, although I don’t have a mouth fetish I found myself discriminating against the small amount of dogs who fell into this category, as this seems to be a area of improvement breeders have made without effecting the importance of the Shih Tzu expression. Although it was not always pos­sible to fulfill the above criteria, ie sometimes I had to compromise in degrees with the significant diverse entry which I thank exhibitors for. at least everyone placed or not placed can understand & give their consideration to the priorities I have or type. I have questions to ask exhibitors regarding the breeds lack of success in the group over the past two decades, given that generally we have the largest entry in the group  why do you think their are far too few success in the group & in the context of the Standard are you able to change this round, so as to enable a improved promotion of the breed? I hope you find those comments useful and constructive as they are meant to stimulate thought & debate in the  interests of the breed.
