Shipoo’s are wonderful family pets.  Their personality is very gentile and up for anything.  Our Shipoo’s are a cross between an AKC Shih Tzu and AKC Miniature Poodle.  Shipoo’s are non-shedding, and weigh about 12lbs as an adult (We occasionally have toys, which are about 5-6lbs as an adult).  Shipoos are great for families with small children, for those who live in apartments or don’t have a large yard, and for those with allergies.  This cross breed would make a great addition to any household
