Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Shih Pom? A Shih Pom is a hybrid dog that combines the sweet, affectionate nature of the Shih Tzu with the charming, spunky personality of the Pomeranian. Known for their small size and big hearts, Shih Poms are loving, gentle companions who are happiest when they’re close to their people. They’re ideal for someone looking for a cuddly, loyal dog that’s low-maintenance in size but rich in personality. With their soft coats and expressive faces, Shih Poms easily win over anyone they meet, making them a popular choice for those who want a lap-loving friend.

How Big Do Shih Poms Get? Shih Poms are small dogs, typically standing between 7 to 12 inches tall and weighing around 4 to 15 pounds as adults. Their compact size makes them well-suited for apartment living or homes with limited space, and they’re easy to carry along on outings or errands. While small, they’re sturdy enough to enjoy active play but small enough to be a perfect lap dog, offering the best of both worlds.

Are Shih Poms Hypoallergenic? Shih Poms are generally low-shedding dogs, which can make them a good choice for people with mild allergies. Their coat texture can vary between fluffy and soft or silky and straight, depending on the genetics they inherit from each parent breed. Although they’re low shedders, their coat requires regular brushing to keep it from tangling and to maintain its softness. For those who want a lower-maintenance coat but love a soft, fluffy look, the Shih Pom is a wonderful option.

How Long Do Shih Poms Live? Shih Poms typically have a long lifespan, usually around 12 to 16 years. With attentive care—including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and routine vet check-ups—they often remain healthy and vibrant into their senior years. Shih Poms are known for their steady, calm nature, which means they tend to stay easygoing and affectionate companions throughout their lifetime. Their extended lifespan makes them great for people looking for a dog who will be a long-term, loyal friend.

Are Shih Poms Good with Children? Yes, Shih Poms are generally very good with children, especially when they’re raised together. They’re known for their gentle, calm nature, and they love being a part of family activities. While they’re small and may be best suited for families with older, respectful children, they enjoy playtime and are patient with younger family members. As with any small dog, it’s wise to supervise interactions to ensure the Shih Pom feels safe and secure, especially around very young children.

Are Shih Pom Puppies Easy to Train? Shih Pom puppies are smart and often pick up commands quickly, but they can also have a bit of a determined, independent side. They respond well to consistent training with positive reinforcement, especially when it involves treats and praise. Patience and gentle encouragement work best for Shih Poms, as they tend to have a sweet, sensitive nature. Early socialization is recommended to ensure they grow into well-mannered, confident adults. With the right approach, Shih Pom puppies are quite trainable and eager to please.

Do Shih Poms Shed? Shih Poms are minimal shedders, which is a plus for those who prefer a cleaner home. Their coat may be soft and fluffy or slightly wavy, depending on which parent breed they take after. While they don’t shed heavily, regular brushing helps keep their coat free of tangles and prevents matting. Many Shih Pom owners appreciate that these dogs require less vacuuming but still have that plush, adorable look that’s easy to care for with a little regular grooming.

How Much Do Shih Poms Weigh? Adult Shih Poms typically weigh between 4 and 15 pounds. Their small size makes them easy to handle and transport, ideal for people who want a pet that’s both manageable and adaptable. Their light weight means they’re a perfect fit for someone looking for a cuddly, low-maintenance dog who doesn’t require a lot of physical exertion but still loves to play and snuggle.
