Welcome to The Luckie Puppy! We are a breeder of AKC Shih-tzus and CKC Shihpoos and Malshis. We love these breeds and know that you will, too. Our AKC shih-tzu mamas are Roxy and Ginger and our CKC Malshi mama is Muffin. They have such sweet and fun personalities. We are constantly being entertained by their antics. We are thrilled that you are interested in our program, and we would love to tell you what sets us apart from some other breeders.

We are located in Americus, GA which is about two and a half hours south of Atlanta and about two hours north of Tallahassee, FL. We are a husband and wife team and we absolutely love that we get the opportunity to help others find their Luckie Puppy. We do not take that responsibility lightly and we do everything within our power to ensure you have a great experience purchasing one of our puppies.

From the moment your application is approved and your deposit is paid you become part of The Luckie Puppy family. We will answer any questions you may have from day one and you have access to us for the life of your dog. We really want to make owning one of our dogs to be as easy as possible.

So, what helps set our puppies a part? We utilize Avidog with all our litters. Avidog puts a great emphasis on ENS to help your puppy learn how to deal with everyday stressors the best way possible. If you want to learn more about ENS and why it’s a major part of our program, then hop on over to our blog where we explain in more detail what that looks like for us.

We start working with our puppies on day three of life and continue all the way up until they go to their new homes. Our puppies are given their first set of shots at six weeks and then they receive their second set of shots at nine weeks. They are checked by our vet and go home with a health certificate. We will not place a puppy that is not healthy. All of our parent dogs are checked by our vet prior to joining our breeding program. We will not breed a dog unless our vet gives us the okay.

All of our puppies go home with a one-year health guarantee, thirty days of puppy insurance from Trupanion and a microchip. We also send every puppy home with a bag full of goodies, a folder with all pertinent information as well as a small bag of puppy food. To see exactly what goes into those bags then check out our YouTube video below.

We are thrilled that you are looking at possibly adding one of our puppies to your family and we are happy to answer any questions you may have. If you have already found the puppy you are interested in over on our AvailablePuppies page, then please fill out our Puppy Application and we look forward to working with you. Please know that we do require a non-refundable deposit once you choose your puppy. This will reserve that puppy for you until he/she is ready to go home.

After reserving your puppy, we know you will be excited and ready to get everything you will need once you bring your puppy home. We have compiled a list at the bottom of the page, along with the link to purchase, of items that we use with your puppy already. If you wish to purchase through the link, just know that we will get a small commission but we are promoting these products because this is what we use and recommend.

We are excited to now offer transportation for our puppies. We use Paws Up Express. Ashley is the only one we will allow to transport one of our puppies. If you are interested in her bringing you one of our sweet puppies click the link for a quote.

We are also excited to give you the opportunity to get to know us better by providing you with the links to our socials. Check us out over on TikTok, Facebook and YouTube.
