Mitzi was co-owned with Theresita Santos of SONORA KENNEL. Her name Mitzi came about because her breeder, Brenda McKnight (LOUBREN) wanted to call her Mitzubishi as in the Japanese made car. She was Brenda’s pick of the litter and came to us at 7 months old.
She was cared for by Thes and shown by George Bueno in the Philippines. At 6 years of age after having three litters she became the Philippines’ FIRST SHIH TZU to win the much coveted DOG OF THE YEAR title. Mitzi sealed the bond of friendship between Thes and I that later I got her to be the god mother to my only son Jason. We travelled the whole country showing Mitzi and it was because of Mitzi that I finally got to see the Philippines travelling to places in the country that I never thought I would visit. We stayed in five star hotels in Cebu to tiny motels in Bacolod anyplace that would accept dogs. Sometimes Thes’ daughter, Shiela would tag along in the trips and we would spend sleepless nights telling stories and having the time of our life.
