Shih-Poo Puppies

Charming, compact companions with big personalities.

About the Shih-Poo

Shih-Poos blend the sweet, people-oriented Shih Tzu with the smart, low-shedding Poodle. Top Notch Paws raises Shih-Poo puppies as loving lap companions and playful family pets in Russell, Massachusetts.

Shih-Poos are known for their expressive faces, soft coats, and devotion to their people. They often do well in homes where someone is around during the day and appreciate a mix of cuddle time and short play sessions.

Because both parent breeds come in a range of sizes, we communicate expected adult weight for each litter so you can choose a puppy that fits your lifestyle—whether you prefer a petite companion or a sturdier small dog.

Quick Facts

Expected size: Typically 8–18 lbs at maturity

Temperament: Loving, confident, and adaptable

Why Families Choose Shih-Poos

  • Compact size ideal for condos and smaller homes
  • Affectionate and often good with respectful children
  • Coats range from wavy to curly with minimal shedding
  • Alert but not typically excessive barkers when well socialized

Care & Training

Daily brushing helps keep a Shih-Poo coat tangle-free. Regular ear cleaning, dental care, and grooming appointments keep them comfortable. We share our puppy packet covering feeding schedules, house training, and socialization tips.
