Our Story
At Maison Petit Lion, we believe that dogs are more than animals—they are companions, healers, and family members. Our mission is to raise emotionally balanced, well-loved Shih-Tzu who bring comfort, connection, and joy into their new homes.
With an approach rooted in love, respect, and intention, we are committed to raising companions who thrive in both body and spirit. Through early socialization, mindful training, and holistic well-being, we cultivate dogs who are confident, well-adjusted, and ready to bond deeply with their families.
Our mission extends beyond raising exceptional companions—it’s about creating lasting connections. Every placement is made with care, ensuring that each dog joins a family that shares our values of devotion, love, and lifelong commitment.
Meet Tamara
Tamara brings a deep commitment to both compassion and thoughtful process. With a background in quality management and process improvement, she continuously evaluates her methods to ensure they are effective, efficient, and aligned with the dogs’ well-being — measured by vet health checks, daily observation, and meaningful outcomes. Feedback from families is embraced and integrated with care. We want every family to know they’re adopting a living being, not purchasing an item, and we hold that truth close in everything we do. This mindset of reflection and responsiveness is what allows Maison Petit Lion to stay intentional, personal, and always evolving.
