Personalized Custom Shih Tzu Mom Shirt with Dog's Photos

Is this Shih Tzu mom shirt for you?

This personalized Shih Tzu mom shirt is for you if your groomer is in your favorites list and your camera roll is mostly one small fluffy face.

It’s a take on the bootleg rap tee: your little lion’s name printed in shiny chrome, with a sparkly collage of their photos below. Or maybe you’re shopping for that person and want something better than another bow.

Upload her groom-day photos

What gets printed

A big arched name sits on top, and that’s the only wording. Underneath, five or six photos of the same dog cluster inside a glitter glow.

Our sample is a gold and white Shih Tzu, shown in orange, lavender with a purple bow, sky blue, rainbow prism and navy. All 15 colorways are on the chart, and your pup replaces the sample in every photo spot.

Puppy cut, teddy cut or full show coat, any style looks good. Mixing haircuts from across the year makes a fun collage.

Making your custom dog name tee

Select the garment. Tee, long sleeve, crewneck or hoodie, then your size.
Pick colors. Your shirt color first, then a design colorway numbered 1 through 15.
Upload your photos. Three to eight shots of your Shih Tzu, which swap in for our sample dog.
Enter the name. Type it the way it should read, then check out.

What makes this different from a puffball cartoon tee?

Shih Tzu shirts show a cartoon puffball, never her real dog
White fur loses all its detail in direct sunlight
Every haircut looks different, and none of them get printed

Small-dog moms treat the dog like family, so a stock drawing feels like a stranger. Five or six photos of the same little lion, fresh groom close-up in the middle, sit in a glitter glow under her name in shiny chrome.

One real-world example: Lulu, rainbow prism colorway 12, a fresh-groom close-up in the middle and five playful shots around it, printed on a tee.

Grooming-day photos work best

Right after a groom, the eyes are clear of hair and the face looks its sharpest. Brush the face, pop in the topknot and shoot near a window. White fur goes too bright in direct sun, so shade keeps the detail.

Phone pictures are fine as long as they’re in focus.

Who it’s for

Usually it’s a Shih Tzu mom with the groomer saved in her favorites and a camera roll that’s mostly one fluffy face. The shirts she’s found show a generic white puffball, and hers has a topknot, an underbite and a very specific look.

The Shih Tzu mom herself

She buys her own dog lover gifts without apology, and this one at least has her little dog’s actual underbite on it.

Dad, who carries the dog everywhere

A hoodie with a pouch pocket suits a guy who never puts the dog down, and there’s no pink slogan to explain.

A daughter shopping for Mom

If Mom’s Shih Tzu sleeps on her pillow, a crewneck with that face is the gift she’ll wear to bed too.

Grandparents with a first grandchild of fur

When the dog is basically the first grandkid, a collage of grooming-day photos goes over better than another framed print.

A best friend with a new rescue

Those first photos after adoption are scruffy and sweet, which makes a puppy-cut-to-teddy-cut collage a fun way to track the year.

Your questions, answered

Can I mix puppy-cut and long-coat photos?

Yes. A year of haircuts in one collage is a fun way to do it, and it works as a dog birthday idea too.

Can the collage include my dog with a famous person?

No. We don’t print celebrities, rappers, athletes or public figures, and we don’t print logos, brand names, team marks or film characters. Photos should be yours or used with permission; an order containing any of that is canceled and fully refunded.

Will white fur show up on a light shirt?

White fur reads best on medium or darker shirt colors. On very light shirts, the glow outline still frames the dog, but darker colors give more contrast.

How long until it arrives?

Production takes 1–3 business days since each shirt is printed to order. USPS tracked delivery takes another 3–5 business days, so most people have theirs in 4–8 business days, though we can’t promise a date. Details are on our shipping page.

A Shih Tzu Christmas gift should be ordered by December 5, 2026 to arrive at a US address in time.
