Shih-Poo Puppies for Sale

Shih-Poos tend to be friendly, playful, and affectionate. With some of the most affectionate dog breeds as parents, Shih-Poos are also very affectionate companions. They love their families and are avidly devoted to them. Provided they are well-socialized, they tend to be friendly to other dogs, strangers, other pets, and children. They tend to do better with older children who have been taught how to carefully handle a dog. Due to their small size, especially as puppies, a Shih-Poo can be easily hurt by rough play or accidental falls. They can do well in families with younger children as long as interactions between young kids and puppies are closely supervised. The Shih-Poo tends to be a courageous little dog. They make excellent watchdogs because they are very alert. However, they can become territorial, and barking can become a nuisance if left unchecked. Early socialization and training your dog to stop barking early on can help curb these tendencies and help your Shih-Poo puppy grow into a well-behaved, confident dog.
