A Bichon-Shih Tzu is considered a canine mix between a Bichon and Shih Tzu. Because of the breeding between the two breeds, many different coloring patterns and body types can be achieved.





Zuchons are not a purebred dog. It is a cross between the Bichon Frise and the Shih Tzu. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and know you can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in either breed. This hybrid cross is recognized by the American Canine Hybrid Club as the Zuchon. It is also commonly called a Shichon by many hybrid breeders. Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to breed multi-generation crosses.they usually range from 8-15 pounds full grown. They are hypoallergenic dogs which means that they are good for people with allergies. They don't shed. These dogs are also called a shichon. Shichon dogs are generally good with children, have their own personality, and are sweet dogs
