Shichon puppies, often called Teddy Bear puppies, are a cross between the Shih Tzu and Bichon Frise. They are known for their soft, fluffy coats, expressive faces, and small size. Their affectionate appearance is matched by a personality that is typically friendly, cheerful, and people-oriented. Shichons often form close bonds with their families and enjoy being involved in everyday household activities.
One reason Shichons are so popular is their companionable temperament. They are generally playful and outgoing without requiring the amount of exercise that many larger or more energetic breeds need. With proper socialization, they can do well with children, other dogs, and a variety of household situations. Their intelligence and desire for attention can also make them enjoyable to train, although patience and consistent, positive reinforcement are important while they are young. As with any dog, temperament varies from puppy to puppy.
Shichons do require regular care to keep them healthy and comfortable. Their coats should be brushed frequently to help prevent tangles and matting, and most benefit from regular professional grooming. Routine nail trimming, ear cleaning, and dental care are also important. Shichons need daily play and moderate exercise, along with plenty of interaction and companionship. A nutritious diet, routine veterinary care, early training, and good socialization will help a Shichon puppy grow into a happy, well-adjusted companion.
A few pertinent details: We live in the state of Wisconsin, in the small city of Abbotsford. Ideally, a visit to our home would give you the opportunity to interact with your puppy before adoption. However, arrangements can be made for flights, if necessary. Please call or text with any questions.

Puppy Buyer's FAQ
See Full Guide Here
Visit or Video Call the Breeder
Visit in person if possible, or request a live video call to meet the puppy, see its living conditions, and meet the mom. Ask to see where the dogs eat, sleep, and play.
Get a Vet Exam Immediately
Have a vet examine the puppy within two days of bringing it home, even if it seems healthy.
Request Complete Health Records
Ask for vaccination records, deworming history, and vet exam results. For purebreds, ask for parent health clearances.
Get Everything in Writing
Written contract with health guarantees, return/refund policy, and spay/neuter terms. Verbal promises are unenforceable.
Use Secure Payment Methods
Pay with a credit card or another traceable method that offers buyer protection. Avoid wire transfers, crypto, or gift cards, which are difficult to recover.
Verify Breeder Credentials
Check USDA license, state breeder license, breed club memberships, and reviews. Ask for buyer references.
Know What to Look For
A trustworthy breeder welcomes visits, specializes in one or two breeds, prices fairly, and gives you time to decide without pressure.
Know Your State's Laws
Some states have lemon laws; others rely on contract law. Know your rights before you buy.
