Mary Plumb

Mary Plumb is a Shih Tzu breeder in Wimbledon, ND, in eastern North Dakota near Valley City. She has been raising Shih Tzu for more than ten years and follows health screening guidelines recommended by national breed clubs. She maintains membership in the American Kennel Club and the regional Shih Tzu club. Her adult dogs undergo patella screenings and annual eye examinations to ensure healthy lines.

Her dogs live indoors with daily socialization and regular veterinary care, and puppies grow up in a family environment with gentle handling. Each puppy benefits from early neurological stimulation exercises and basic leash introduction to help them adapt smoothly to home life. Grooming begins in the first weeks to accustom them to brushing and salon routines that are important for the breed’s coat care.

Her breeding program emphasizes calm temperaments, and many puppies have gone on to therapy training or enriching family life.
