I'm sorry I missed this post earlier..........YES, of course I'd love to see belly pictures of your Shih-Tzu! This is an August litter thread, not a August yorkie litter thread.

Wow, any day now? Are you sure you don't mean any minute now? She sure looks ready to me. Good luck to you and the little mama.

She does have a beautiful coat. I would definitely trim or shave the belly hair, those pups will be matting it like crazy from their nursing and the milk will mess it up too. You might even want to trim up the sides a bit; I have heard/read a horror story or two of pups getting tangled up in the long locks. You don't want to take any chances. Halle's hair was to the floor; I've trimmed it up about 2 inches............so far. If she's just having one pup, I REALLY don't want to take any chances!
