Highly Recommend Jodi!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We couldn’t be happier with Jodi as our breeder and would highly recommend her. From our very first phone call, it was clear how much she genuinely loves and cares for her dogs. The weekly FaceTime updates with Bella and Bruno before they came home were such a joy and helped us start bonding right away. If you’re looking for a kind, trustworthy Shih Tzu breeder, Jodi is absolutely the person to call.

We have had Duncan since June 2025 and he is the sweetest and smartest Shih Tzu. The Dempseys are wonderful and it was such a smooth process to get Duncan. Once we met online, I received regular communication, pictures and videos of the litter. When Duncan was old enough, I made the journey to their home and picked him up. The Dempsey's home is full of Shih Tzu love and all the dogs are well cared for and part of their family. I stay in regular contact and we send pictures often. I hope some day to get another Shih Tzu from them.

Thank you, Dempsey's Darlings!

Oreo has been such a joy in our household and we have Jodi of Dempsey's Darlings to thank! From the beginning of the process she was transparent from pricing and showing his growth from the deposit! When it was time for pick up she was very thorough with instructions and medical records. Oreo has been healthy and has been a happy pup in our household! I highly recommend Jodi as she truly has beautiful puppies and is such an easy person to work with.

Dedicated to her dogs!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I can’t say enough wonderful things about my experience with Jodi. From the very beginning, it was clear how thoughtful, and dedicated she is to her dogs. She truly cares about placing her puppies in the right homes and making sure both the pups and their future families are set up for success. One thing that really stood out to me was how attentive she was to my requests. When I asked if Midge could be pad-trained before coming home she was incredibly accommodating and took the time to work on it. That level of care and willingness to listen meant so much and made the transition home so much easier. Four years later, I’m still so grateful I found Jodi. Midge is not only the cutest girl around, but she’s brilliant, sweet, and well-behaved. I can only imagine that those traits come from her lineage, which is all thanks to Jodi’s diligent breeding work. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a Shih Tzu from a responsible and caring breeder.
