The Shihpoo is a cross between the Shih Tzu and the Toy (or Miniature) Poodle. Depending on which parental genes are dominant, your Shih-Poo might have a curly or long, straight coat. These dogs are usually 8 to 15 inches high at the shoulder and weigh between 7 and 20 pounds. The Shihpoo's large, sweet eyes match its friendly and playful personality. They are ideal for adults and older children, and they make very effective watchdogs.

Your canine family members are very much welcome in South Dakota, one of the United States’ most pet-friendly states. From the outdoor experience of the Braeburn Addition Off-leash Dog Area in Rapid City to the Miner Brewing Co. in Hill City, there’s something to please the tastes of any dog! Truly unique attractions, including Hartford’s 1880 Cowboy Town, allow dogs to accompany their owners on-leash to participate and learn about the history and culture of South Dakota. In addition, dozens of dog parks cater to small and big dogs alike who want to let loose and sniff a few bottoms in the afternoons.
South Dakota has not formally chosen a state dog breed…but its official wild animal is the coyote. Close enough!
The most popular name for a dog in South Dakota is Louie.
Labrador Retrievers are this state’s most beloved breed.
