Shihpoo Puppies Temperament

Shihpoos are the perfect mix of joy and cuteness! They are incredibly playful yet still calm and gentle. Not only do they make excellent companions, but they have an affectionate and friendly nature that makes them a delight to be around.

The Shihpoo breed has a reputation for loving children and getting along well with other pets in the household. Plus, their intelligence and trainability makes them great candidates for agility, obedience, and other fun activities.

All in all, if you’re looking for a loyal companion who is sure to bring laughter and happiness into your home, look no further than the lovable Shihpoo.

Shihpoo Puppy Health Considerations

Though generally very happy and long-lived — with an average lifespan of around 13-16 years — our Shihpoos for sale are not without their unique health concerns. Like every breed of dog, there are a few conditions you should be aware of before you consider purchasing one of our Shihpoo puppies for sale. Understanding the risks allows you to know the signs and prevent small health concerns from turning into big ones.

Shihpoo puppies are at a somewhat elevated risk for developing the following conditions:

• Cardiac Issues
• Luxating Patellas
• Eye Diseases

Common health problems for Shihpoos include congenital cardiac conditions, luxating patellas (dislocation of the knee joint), and eye diseases such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy.

With some basic knowledge of the breed’s health concerns, you can be sure to give your Shihpoo the best possible chance at a long and healthy life. Finding a Shihpoo puppy for sale from a reputable breeder can also dramatically — although, not eliminate — the risk of your dog developing some of these conditions. At Keystone Puppies, we work exclusively with experienced breeders who are committed to producing healthy & happy pups.

Shihpoo Puppies Coat & Coat Care

Taking care of a Shihpoo’s coat is an essential part of keeping them healthy and looking their best. A low-shedding coat may not require any trimming or grooming, but your Shihpoo still needs to be brushed regularly to keep its coat from matting and knotting.

Special attention should be given around the eyes, ears, and feet to ensure that stray hairs don’t irritate these sensitive areas. Additionally, if your pup is heading out into inclement weather or participating in activities in muddy areas, consider investing in a waterproof coat and boots! This will not only protect that beautiful coat but also help keep them warm in cold temperatures. Not bad for such a small pup!
