The Shihpoo, also known as Shoodle, is a relatively new cross breed developed from the Shih Tzu and either a Miniature or Toy Poodle. They are cute little dogs that can have the curlier coat of the Poodle or the longer and much straighter coat of the Shih Tzu, depending on which of the parent breeds the puppies are whelped on, although it should be noted that puppies in the same litter can look quite different and have a variety of colours and colour combinations.
