Answer 1

Hi...have you had your puppy checked by a vet?  She could very well have worms, which causes the symptoms you describe.  Also, since the tummies of shih tzu are so small, you should only be feeding a scant 1/4 cup of food.  Overfeeding now could lead to many problems in the future, as well as making your little darlin' sick.  

Answer 2

i dont think so

Answer 3

it could be worms, is the tummy hard like a bloated feeling?  i would give a general all wormer, maybe try some fibre see if she is going to the toilet properly...
