Shih-poo

Shih Tzu × Miniature Poodle

Company and gentle play

A little more about this dog

Prepare daily company, gentle play and regular grooming. A small companion appearance does not establish activity needs, easy coat care or breathing comfort.

Think ahead: Coat and muzzle shape vary; a Poodle parent does not guarantee low shedding or remove short-muzzle care needs.

What a mixed background can tell you

These are selected named crosses, not every possible combination. Names are informal, and ancestry should be confirmed. Ask about the individual dog’s actual size, coat, routine and personality.
