Look at me! I am a Shih-Poo puppy! My Mom is a Shih-Poo and my Dad is a Mini Poodle. I was born on September 13th and I will be ready for my forever home on November 8th! I have been family raised on a mini farm in the country. I have had my shots and dewormers. I will be checked by a veterinarian. For more information or to schedule a visit with me, please contact Neal Monday through Saturday. All Sunday calls will be returned on Monday.
The Shihpoo, also known as a Shoodle or a Poo-Tzu, is an adorable mixed breed between a Shih Tzu and a Miniature or Toy Poodle. Shihpoos are cheerful, easygoing, and devoted, and would be comfortable in most living situations. They are ideal for an older, retired person, but will also be fine in a family with calm, older children. This is a good breed for new pet owners, but the Shihpoo can be stubborn if it inherits certain traits from its Shih Tzu parent. They are an intelligent, sensitive, and lovable breed who would like nothing more than to be spoiled and cherished, and they do make great emotional support therapy dogs. The Shihpoo is typically 8-18 inches high, and usually weighs between 7-20 pounds. The height and weight can vary due to what size Poodle the Shih Tzu is bred with. This is a breed with a long life span, commonly between 13-17 years. Their thick coat can be either curly or straight or a mix of both, and with a wide range of colors. Due to the coat being easily matted daily brushing is essential, and they would do well with monthly professional grooming appointments. Due to the Shihpoo being a smaller breed it does have a propensity to suffer from dental issues, so daily brushing of their teeth is important. Their exercise needs are in the medium range of between 20-30 minutes a day. Typically a few short walks and quick little potty breaks would suffice. They do get along with other pets, but as with any dog early training and socialization is important.
