All About Me!

**Ad and pictured updated 12/18***The Shichon is a mixed breed dog–a cross between the Shih Tzu and the Bichon Frise dog breeds. Thet are affectionate, intelligent, and outgoing, these pups inherited some of the best qualities from both of their parents. These sweet pups are rather adaptable and are fit for apartment living, households with families, and single-person homes. They are the perfect companion animal for seniors, and their personalities and temperament make them excellent therapy dogs. If you want a companion who will follow you around your home and also protect their loved ones, the Shichon may be the right dog for you! Shichons are also an excellent choice for those who suffer from allergies, as these are considered very low to non-shedders. People ask why he is still avaiable at his age. Well that is because I am HORRIBLE getting new ads and current pictures put on the website and I have had a lot of health issues that prevent me being able to a lot done. Meet Attics. He is a whitish cream. He is layed back pretty much until my boxer says it time to play then he is very active. lol He is a sweet baby and will lay by you on the couch and cuddle the day away. His mom is a black and weighs around 8 lbs. His dad is black with white markings and weighs around 12lbs. Attics is house and crate trained as long as you let him out on a normal basis. We also work on basic commands, and teaching that inside is down quite time and playtime is for outside at 4 weeks of age. We start bathing and grooming at 3 weeks old and continue this every week until 8 weeks and then get a bath when they need one. We also teach the down command and not to grab and bite at food in your hand. We do this because many new puppy parents have young kids and we want to make sure both puppy and kid have an easy transition. We put in all the work and introduce this to them at a young age which is prime learning time for a puppy so when they go home with you they have all the tools to become an awesome companion with not as much work for the new puppy parents. He is being raised indoors, around my two children, other dogs, and cats on our farm. Introducing different things and animals at a young age imprints them with good habits playing and socializing with others as they get older. All puppy shots have been done and is up to date on de-wormings. He comes with a puppy informational packet, written health guarantees, collar, leash and toy. He is ready for his new home now. We can hold him if needed on a deposit of $250. We will not hold without a deposit. We do not accept checks of any kind. We do accept cash or Venmo. Deposits are nonrefundable unless something happens to him while in my care then you would receive the deposit back or transfer it to another puppy if available. So please make 100% sure you want him before placing a deposit on him. Call or text me with any questions you may have at 816-529-2783. Can also send videos of him if requested.
