I will have to post the one of the chickens chasing her back, it\u2019s hilarious. She sure loves her chicken friends!&#8221; We absolutely cannot wait to see the chickens putting the shoe on the other paw.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">After running amok around the yard, this Shih-Tzu finally herds them into their coop. But the clip isn&#8217;t over. The last shot presents us with &#8220;Miss girl&#8221; passed out inside. She got her exercise for the day and then some.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The comment section was rooting for Coco like she was competing in Westminster. &#8220;Omg that\u2019s hard work. They are Royalties,&#8221; @aideechavez275 jumped in. Coco&#8217;s mama replied, &#8220;That\u2019s why she slept the next 12 hours.&#8221; Oh boy, she was tired!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Many others spoke up to talk about their own feisty beasties. @Karen covered this well with, &#8220;My princess would want you to carry her while you run around chasing them. So she could say she was chasing them.&#8221; Finally, @conny.burgemeester got us laughing, &#8220;She wants some chicken.&#8221; That might be it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Related: Chicken Named &#8216;J Lo&#8217; Enjoying Her Swing Like a Boss Is the Real &#8216;Jenny From the Flock&#8217;<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">What are breed groups?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">You have almost certainly heard of breeds, but not everyone knows about breed groups.

Each one of these falls under a breed group. There are seven in total, Hound, Working, Sporting, Terrier, Toy, Non-Sporting, and Herding.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/pethelpful.com\/dogs\/shih-tzu-guide\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Shih-Tzu;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Shih-Tzu&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Shih-Tzu<\/a> belongs to the Toy group, which means she&#8217;s small and bred to be a companion animal. Like many of her brethren, this tiny girl packs a big personality.
