It's hard to resist giving your Shih Tzu a treat every time you look into those adorable, pleading eyes but treats should be doled out sparingly — no more than two a day. Shih Tzus can become overweight easily because of their small size. Look for healthy dog treats like these found right in your own fridge:
One or two blueberries
Very small broccoli florets (about an inch long)
One baby carrot
Tiny bits of cooked chicken, turkey, or fish
Small pieces of strawberry
Small chunks of hardboiled egg white
Tiny pieces of raw apple
Spoonful of nonfat plain yogurt
Spoonful of lowfat cottage cheese
A couple of Cheerios
