The Luckie Puppy is a boutique AKC Shih Tzu breeder in Georgia, thoughtfully raising companion-focused Shih Tzus in our home. We produce a limited number of carefully planned litters each year, prioritizing temperament, structure, and long-term health.
Our program is intentionally selective, with placement by application only.
What AKC Registration Means
As an AKC Shih Tzu breeder in Georgia, all of our breeding dogs are registered with the American Kennel Club (AKC).
AKC registration confirms
Verified lineage
Breed standard adherence
Pedigree documentation
Responsible record keeping
While registration alone does not guarantee quality, it reflects our commitment to maintaining breed integrity within our program.
Each puppy placed from The Luckie Puppy is eligible for AKC registration and is sold with appropriate documentation.
A Limited, In-Home Program
Unlike large-scale breeding operations, we intentionally maintain a small, home-based program in South Georgia.
Our Shih Tzus are raised:
Inside our home
With daily interaction
With early neurological stimulation
With structured social exposure
With temperament-based evaluation prior to placement
We serve families throughout Georgia, including Atlanta, Macon, Columbus, Savannah, Valdosta, and surrounding areas, as well as families nationwide.
Temperament-Focused Pairings
As an AKC Shih Tzu breeder in Georgia, our priority is never color alone. Each pairing is selected to support:
Balanced, affectionate temperaments
Confident but gentle personalities
Structural soundness
Long-term companion suitability
We do not produce frequent litters. Our breeding schedule is intentional and limited to ensure individual attention and thoughtful placement.
Availability & Reservation Process
Puppies from The Luckie Puppy are placed by application only.
When a litter is expected:
Priority reservations are offered to pre-qualified families
Selection is made in order of confirmed reservation
Placement is based on temperament and suitability
Because we limit the number of AKC Shih Tzu litters we produce each year, availability is often reserved prior to birth.
