We love puppy-talk so much that if we had tails, they’d be waggin’! Why? Because we are so glad you found us and that one of our snuggle-muffins could go home with you!

At Palmetto Moon Puppies, we believe every great puppy-love story begins with a wet- nose kiss and a warm, furry cuddle. As devoted breeders of designer, hypoallergenic Shihpoos (Shih-Tzu Poodles), we pour our hearts into raising happy, healthy puppies, ready to bring joy into the lives of their forever families. Each pup is more than a pet—they are a cherished part of our home before they become part of yours. (Seriously, we spoil them!)

With care, compassion, and a deep sense of purpose for what we do, we’re proud to say we don’t just breed dogs—we plant seeds of love, one pup at a time. Our fur-babies influence change locally, regionally, and internationally through our Pups With Purpose program (check out the link above). We take pride in providing a level of care and dedication that sets us apart.

Our Little Ones Go Home With:

• a health guarantee

• a microchip

• dew claws removed

• a health record documenting vaccinations and dewormings

• a lifetime surrender clause should a family need rehoming services

• a spay or neuter agreement requiring written, veterinarian proof of alteration by one year of age

• CKC Registration Paperwork

Responsible Breeding Keeps Animals Out of Shelters

We maintain the rights to all of our breeding parents when they are in the Guardianship Program outside of our home, and do not pass on breeding rights to any pups purchased from our program. This ensures ethical breeding practices continue and that no unauthorized breeding or mistreatment of our precious parents occurs. Reputable breeding requires education, skill, and experience. We take responsibility for every pup we bring into this world, and love every minute!

We carefully select breeding pairs based on temperament, health, and compatibility and ensure that each puppy receives early socialization, proper care, and training to set them up for success in their new homes.

We’ve Got Your Back!

By providing ongoing support, expert advice, and a strong commitment to ensuring the best for your pupcake, no matter the stage of their life, parents can rest assured they are never alone and help is just a text away.

No one will work harder for your pup before they are put into your arms. We strive to ensure a smooth transition from our home to yours. Our aim is to deeply enrich the lives of both you and your new best friend.
