It's always nice to have Christmas ornaments that mean something to you, so this Sandicast Shih Tzu Stocking Ornament is perfect for showing off your love of the breed. And, if you have no idea what to buy a Shih Tzu lover, you really can't go wrong with tree decorations, as long as they celebrate the holiday.

#2 These festive Shih Tzu Christmas cards

Did you know that in the United States, over 1.2 billion Christmas cards are sent out each year? And the #1 reason that people send them is that they themselves know how nice it is to receive one! More people send out cards for Christmas (81%) than Valentines day (25%).

The very first Christmas card was commissioned by a man named Sir Henry Cole and it was a hand painted lithograph on very stiff cardboard; His message was " Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to You." The first Christmas card company in the U.S. was established in Boston, Massachusetts in 1875. Just 6 years later, it was printing more than 5 million per year.

In regard to greeting cards, 6.5 billion are sent out each year in the U.S. and the most popular reasons for sending a card are: Birthdays, Sympathy, Thank You and Thinking of You. Woman can take the credit for staying in touch this way (80%) much more than men (20%) and 70% of all card senders state that doing so is either 'absolutely' or 'almost' essential to them.

Our top picks for these are these wonderful Shih Tzu Christmas Cards by Pipsqeak. These come in a pack of 10 and have envelopes.

#3 This unique Shih Tzu garden flag

In the U.S., 20 to 30% of people have food gardens which is over 40 million households. And while there are no stats for flower gardens (even flowers in one outdoor planter counts as a garden), there millions of people who enjoy these as well. Both men and women love to garden, though the average gardener is female (54%) and 40 year old or older.

For Shih Tzu lovers, the nicest ways to spruce up a garden spot or add a personal touch, no matter the size, is to hang a Shih Tzu garden flag or place a Shih Tzu garden stake among the foliage.

Our favorite pick is this happy and colorful Caroline's Treasures Shih Tzu Flag. It's double-sided, fade-proof, weather-proof, and is made in the USA.

#4 This life-size Shih Tzu sculpture

Shih Tzu statues are one of the most popular types of Shih Tzu collectibles and gifts for a variety of reasons. These make the perfect present for someone who currently has a Shih Tzu or who lost their canine family member. Or, you may want one for your own home.

We really love this Sandicast Life Size Shih Tzu Sculpture that is so life-like, and as you can see this Shih Tzu is black and white but they also offer the sculpture in all sorts of coat colors. It's really easy to find one that most matches your own dog or that of a friend or loved one.

This can be kept outside in your yard or garden which can really make people do a double-take. Inside, this can be a fun piece to place in the corner of a room, use as a doorstop or liven up a room with a personal touch.

#5 This precious Shih Tzu salt and pepper set

If you're wondering if this gift would be perfect for a Shih Tzu lover, the answer is yes. Not only is it adorable, chances are it'll be used quite a bit: Salt and pepper seasonings are mainstays of meals and even if someone doesn't use it themselves, shakers are usually placed in the kitchen for guests.

This Sweet Shih Tzu Salt & Pepper Shaker Set is just adorable and what's really neat about these is that they stay together via little magnets in the dog's noses. And, these are a good size at a height of 3.5 inches.

Just about everyone displays photos in their home and many office workers also like to keep some pics on their desks to help spruce things up. So, this delightful Shih Tzu Picture Frame by E&S Pets is an ideal gift for yourself, a family member, or another Shih Tzu owner that you may be shopping for.

This is actually available in two different designs: a tan-based dog and a grey/black-based dog. And, while this can hold a photo of a Shih Tzu, it can be used to display any pic at all... a baby, children, other pets (how cute would it be for this frame to hold a photo of a beloved cat?), or any photos of your choosing.

#7 This whimsical Shih Tzu artwork

For something truly unique, this Shih Tzus Fill the Sink Signed Lynch Print is an original watercolor print that's both distinctive and charming. It is by professional artist Cindi Lynch and it's printed on archival quality paper. The artist has hand-signed the front of the piece. This is a small but cute 5x7 inch size and you will need to choose your own frame; it looks great in a wide range of frames, from unfinished wood to black or white.

#8 This earth-friendly Shih Tzu tote bag

Thank goodness, reusable tote bags are becoming more popular every day which helps keep plastic out of our oceans.

#9 This very pretty Shih Tzu bracelet

It's not always easy choosing jewelry as a gift, so sometimes it's best to steer clear of rings (if you don't know the size) or necklaces (if you aren't positive of someone's preferences in regard to length). So, a stunningly pretty bracelet like this can make a wonderful gift for a Shih Tzu owner.

This Shih Tzu Mom Silver Braided Bracelet has a sterling silver finish, a unique braided chain, a 'lobster claw' clasp, and a sparkling heart charm with 'Shih Tzu Mom' engraved across it.
