The Lhasa is generally longer in body than the Shih Tzu but they are very close in height and weight. The Lhasa Apso stands 10-12 inches high and weighs 13-15 pounds. The Shih Tzu reaches heights up to 11 inches and can weigh up to 16 pounds. The Lhasa is longer in body than the Shih Tzu but they generally are of the same height and weight.
Both a Shih Tzu and a Llasa Ahpsa (I apologize if either are spelled wrong) are small breed dogs, weighing typically less than 20 pounds at maturity. Therefore, a cross between these two breeds should also be a small-type dog, probably also less than 20 pounds.
shih apso puppies eat almost anything but the dog food Purina I'm a fan but the pup is not and sometimes if they don't like a food they'll vomit.:)
Yes
Well , she's not a Lhasa Apso,or Shih Tzu, or Cocker Spaniel. She is a Pekingese because the flat face is black and sometimes blonde. Wikipedia thinks she's a Lhasa Apso, and the newspaper says Pekingese. Just ignore Wikipedia.
A mixed breed is a mixed breed. The silly names you hear are just made up names. Play with the words until you find something you like and go with that. That's what everybody else does.
Our male Lhasa-Shih cost $550. The females tend to cost a little more.
Yes, you need to groom every breed at least somewhat. A Shih Tzu x Lhasa Apso mix likely has medium to long hair, which will need to either be kept short or brushed on a weekly basis to remove knots. Both of those breeds also tend to get tear stains on their faces and food stains around their mouths, which should be kept clean for the sake of the dog's comfort. As with any breed, nails need to be kept short and teeth need to be brushed regularly to maintain good health.
Yes, the cross breed of a shih tzu and a poodle is known as a shih poo.
None, a Shih-tzu is a Shih-tzu. But it can be mixed with other dogs.
The Chinese breed name for the Shih Tzu is 狮子狗, meaning lion dog.
Shih Tzu's are classified in the Toy Breed group.
You cannot breed any dog with a Shih Tzu, it's the same for all small dogs. You can't breed like a Great Dane or any type of large dog with a Shih Tzu, it would probably kill the shih tzu when giving birth. Sheebee13: You can breed any small dog with a shih tzu, ofcourse it cant be a big dog. But like a mini poodle, Chihuahua, yorkie. Anyhting small.
