All these pups are from non-shedding hypoallergenic parents. We expect them to be also. They are all healthy, marked down simply to due with age and struggle they will have moving into a new home. With us having a bio-secure home/kennel, these pups will need socialization plus when they leave. It will take longer for them to adjust to their new home and will need lots of patience and understanding. Some will do better with a older family and we will point this out. They are kennel trained and doggie door potty trained... They are ready for a new hair cut & will have 4 series of puppy vaccinations and only need rabies bu their new family and to be spayed and neutered. these pups are all sold with the agreement to spay/neuter as soon as you DVM will do this or by 7 months of age..
SHORKIES (SHIH TZU & YORKSHIRE TERRIER)
Expected to mature at 7-14 pounds
The Shih Tzu and the Yorkshire Terrier mixed breed, also known as the Shorkie, is a small and feisty guy who has a lot of character squeezed into his small body. He is a very stubborn dog who needs a consistent master who is not going to give up on his training, because if he is not reigned in he can become problematic.
The Shorkie has become an extremely popular mixed breed over the last several years, specifically because of their fiesty nature. But if you can handle him, then he is a lovely canine companion, who has the loyalty of a lion!
A designer dog is a new label that the media have created, and whilst it sounds a bit posh, it is a practice that has been around for centuries, if not longer. A designer dog is simply a puppy who has two different purebred parents, and in this case the Shorkie’s parents are the Shih Tzu and the Yorkshire Terrier.
Mal-Shih (Maltese/Shih Tzu)
The Mal-Shi is an intelligent, loyal, playful breed that requires moderate exercise and mental stimulation. Though quite independent, they are very eager to please and easily trained. They do well with older children, nearly all animals, and with those of whom they are accustomed. They are alert, agile and highly perceptive. They're not overly vocal and often fearful of strangers, making them a poor candidate for watchdog.
The Maltese is a small, fearless and very playful dog with a long, white silky coat that is hypoallergenic (very low shed cycle to non-shedding). Maltese do very well with other animals, but are often leery of strangers.
The Shih Tzu is a medium sized and more sturdy breed with a double coat that is hypoallergenic & non-shedding. A Shih Tzu is very people focused and literally thrives on attention and affection. The combination of these two breeds produce a cute, sturdy, intelligent, family focused dog with a slow shed cycle.
Life span: 12-15 years
Temperament: Affectionate, Alert, Independent, Intelligent, Loving, Out-Going, Playful, Quiet, Social
Height: 10-20 inches Weight: 5-15 pounds

Hello
Teddybears
If you've always wanted a small, snuggly companion who's also smart, loves everyone, is easy to train and sweet-tempered, a teddy bear dog might just be the perfect fit for you.
Bred to be intelligent, for personality, temperament, health to be adorable, loving and hypo-allergenic, teddy bears started out as therapy dogs but appeal to just about anyone they meet. When socialized properly, they even get along great with other dogs and cats!
While they’re active and energetic, they’re also happy just chilling on the couch with their humans.
Hybrid Parentage Teddybear is a trademarked name for a 50/50 cross of a BIchon Frise and a Shih tzu, Some call them "designer dogs," or hybrids. He’s actually a mixed breed dog, albeit a carefully crafted designer mix, but a mix nonetheless. Many state this mix will have a Hybrid Vigor and will be healthier since they are for sure unrelated. I find if you carefully bred for health, it will follow thru in the pups of any bred.
Because of their small size and sweet nature, teddy bears can be perfect pets whether you live in an apartment or a large house.
Their Therapeutic History Teddy bears joined the canine world pretty recently, around 2000. Initially, they served as therapy dogs for handicapped children. Unlike the stereotypical small-dog temperament -- hyper, yippy and sometimes anxious -- teddy bears have mellow, loving personalities that make them perfect companions. If you encounter one, you might just fall in love -- and living with a teddy bear usually enforces that feeling.
I may be making a trip to Rapid City late afternoon 2/5 this is undecided at this time but if interested in my saving you some miles, please let me know
