Do you mean "Shih Tzu"? If so, the scientific name for Shih Tzu is Canis familiaris, the same as every other type of dog that has been domesticated, other than dogs that are a subspecies of wolves, which are called Canis lupus familiaris. Individual Dog Breeds do not have their own scientific names. The Shih Tzu is also known as the Chrysanthemum Dog or the Lion Dog.
