The Teddy Poo is a small-sized Doodle breed that mixes three other popular and well-established breeds: Shih Tzu, Bichon Frise, and Toy Poodle.

The name Teddy Poo was given to the breed because it resembles an adorable Teddy Bear. The mix can also be called a Shichonpoo.

APPEARANCE

The parent breeds have a few visual elements in common. First of all, they are thick with fur and often lean towards all-white or primarily white coats.

COAT TYPE

Teddy Poos have two layers to their fur. Each part of the double coat serves its purpose. The undercoat is soft & helps insulate the dog. The topcoat is where the color & texture of the hair really shine.
