Looking for a small breed hypoallergenic puppy?
I’m thinking of getting a puppy and was hoping for a some advice or suggestions from other pet owners. I’ve listed a few of the guidelines I’ve been considering as I look.
1. Hypoallergenic
2. Little to no shedding
3. toy or small size (under 10 pounds)
4. I live in an apartment with little yard (so something that requires little outdoor exercise and doesn’t bark all the time)
5. Doesn’t require much grooming
6. pure or mixed breed
7. Easy or fairly easy to train (especailly house training)
I’m looking for a companion/lap dog that doesn’t mind riding in cars and is good with other dogs and children. I would appreciate any suggestions.
Also, I’ve looked at a few different mixed breeds (like the papi-poo and yorkie-poo) but can’t find any pictures of what they look like as adults. Any suggestions?
I have a Shorkie. She is a Shih Tzu and Yorkshire Terrier mix. Although these dogs can require much grooming, you can keep their hair cut short and it is much easier to care for. I brush her hair two times a week, sometimes less. I have a very busy schedule, as most of us do, but am able to keep her hair looking nice with little effort. I take her to a groomer every 6 to 8 weeks. She doesn’t shed much at all. I have two children and she is wonderful with them. I travel often and she rides very well in the car. She has been easy to potty train also. She knows to go outside but will use a potty pad if she has to. I have taught her a few tricks and she learns quickly. She wasn’t very expensive and isn’t expensive to maintain. She weighs about 5 pounds. She is almost a year old and if you would like to see pictures of her, send me an email requesting them and I would be glad to send you pics. Good luck!
