Shihpoo
The Shihpoo is a charming, people-focused little companion with the intelligence and eagerness of the Poodle softened by the sweet, steady nature of the Shih Tzu. Usually affectionate and adaptable, this hybrid tends to be playful without being overwhelming, and its long, curly coat gives it a plush, teddy-bear look that needs regular upkeep.
