Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Shih Poo? The Shih Poo is a hybrid breed that combines the intelligence and low-shedding coat of a Poodle with the affectionate, gentle personality of a Shih Tzu. Known for being playful and loving, Shih Poos make wonderful companions for a variety of households, including families, singles, and seniors. This breed’s adaptable nature and sweet temperament make them ideal pets for those who want a friendly, low-shedding dog with a big heart. Shih Poos are known for their charm and loyalty, forming strong bonds with their families and always staying close by.

How Big Do Shih Poos Get? Shih Poos are small to medium-sized dogs, generally standing 8 to 17 inches tall and weighing between 8 and 18 pounds. Their size can vary depending on whether they’re bred from a Toy or Miniature Poodle. Shih Poos are compact enough to adapt well to apartment living but sturdy enough for play and outdoor activities, making them a versatile choice for a range of living situations.

Are Shih Poos Hypoallergenic? Yes, Shih Poos are often considered hypoallergenic, especially if they inherit the Poodle’s curly, low-shedding coat. While no breed is completely hypoallergenic, Shih Poos shed minimally and produce less dander, which can be a plus for those with mild allergies. Regular grooming helps keep their coat in top shape, reducing the amount of loose fur and maintaining its soft, hypoallergenic quality.

How Long Do Shih Poos Live? Shih Poos typically have a lifespan of 10 to 15 years. With proper care, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and routine veterinary visits, many Shih Poos live long, healthy lives. Their small to medium size and good general health contribute to their longevity, allowing them to remain loving, loyal companions for many years. Their playful, affectionate nature usually lasts well into their senior years, making them joyful, lifelong friends.

Are Shih Poos Good With Children? Yes, Shih Poos are generally great with children, especially when raised in a family setting. Their gentle, affectionate demeanor makes them a good match for kids, and they often enjoy playing and cuddling with younger family members. Due to their small size, they’re best suited to homes with older children who understand how to handle them gently. Shih Poos are usually patient and tolerant, but supervision with very young kids is always a good idea to ensure safe, positive interactions.

Are Shih Poo Puppies Easy to Train? Shih Poo puppies are typically intelligent and responsive, thanks to their Poodle lineage. They’re quick to pick up commands and enjoy learning new tricks, especially with positive reinforcement techniques like treats and praise. While they may inherit a touch of the Shih Tzu’s independent nature, Shih Poos generally respond well to consistent training. With a little patience and encouragement, they can become well-mannered, obedient companions who are a pleasure to work with.

Do Shih Poos Shed? Shih Poos are low-shedding dogs, which is one of their most attractive qualities for pet owners who prefer a cleaner home environment. Their coat, which can range from wavy to curly, sheds minimally and holds onto loose fur instead of releasing it around the house. Regular brushing helps keep their coat soft and tangle-free, while occasional grooming every few months will keep it healthy and looking its best. Shih Poos’ minimal shedding makes them an appealing option for allergy-prone households.

How Much Do Shih Poos Weigh? Adult Shih Poos generally weigh between 8 and 18 pounds, making them a small, manageable size. Their weight and compact build make them easy to handle, travel with, and ideal for lap time. Shih Poos’ moderate size and gentle, affectionate nature make them ideal for a wide range of households, from busy families to quiet apartments, providing comfort, companionship, and plenty of love.
