The Zuchon is a hybrid dog mixed between the Bichon Frise and the Shih Tzu. This breed is also known as a Shichon. This adorable little dog looks just like a teddy bear and has become quite poular because of it’s adorable face, friendly disposition and non-shedding hypoallergenic coat.

Affectionate and energetic is how most Shichon owners will describe their dogs. They are socialable and good with children. These dogs usually love everyone and because of this they may not make great watchdogs. They are intelligent and easy to train. The Zuchon will make a great family pet. Because of their small size and cute faces this dog will make the perfect lap dog.
