Zuchon Breed History

The Zuchon is a hybrid dog breed that was developed by crossing a Bichon Frise with a Shih Tzu. The dog was first bred in the U.S. in the 1990s, with the objective of creating a sweet, teddy-bear-looking dog that would make a great companion and in addition, was sweet with kids. The Bichon Frise is believed to have originated in Italy.
The breed was taken to France in the 14th century by sailors who found the dogs in Tenerife, one of the Canary Islands. The Bichon descends from the Barbet, and it’s related to the Bolognese, the Maltese, the Havanese, and the Coton de Tulear. The breed’s popularity spread rapidly through Europe’s nobility. In the 16th century, during  England's King Henry III and France’s King Francis I, the Bichon Frise was highly acclaimed. 

The breed was also admired in Spain, and was portrayed by great artists, like Goya. The Bichon eventually became too familiar and ordinary, they were owned by common people such as circus performers and organ grinders. But thanks to its personality and cute looks, the Bichon regained its popularity. After World War I, French breeders were determined to preserve the breed and the official breed standard was established in 1933.

 At this time, the dog had two names: Tenerife and Bichon; the breed was later named Bichon Frise. The breed was recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1971. 

On the other hand, the Shih Tzu is believed to be one of the 14 oldest dog breeds. The belief is that the breed was developed by Tibetan Monks, who gave these dogs to the Chinese Royalty. Another theory is that the Shih Tzu was created in China, and descends from the Lhasa Apso or the Pekingnese. Dogs that look like the Shih Tzu are portrayed in paintings, writings, and art from 618 to 907 A.D. during China’s Tang Dynasty. There are also references to these dogs in documents and paintings from 990 to 994 A.D. It is known that during the 13th century, the Mongolian Emperor Kubla Khan kept small dogs that were used to calm the lions and it is thought that these dogs were Shih Tzus. These “lion” dogs were also mentioned during the Ming Dynasty in 1368 to 1644. In 1861, the breed became acclaimed thanks to Empress T’zu Hsi’s love for these dogs. She received a pair of Shih Tzus from the Dalai Lama, and it is said these dogs had their own palace. The breed arrived at England in 1928 and was later imported to the United States. The American Kennel Club recognized the Shih Tzu in 1969.

Zuchon Breed Maintenance

The Zuchon is a hypoallergenic dog and they are non-shedders, this makes them suitable for people with allergies. It is recommended to comb your Zuchon daily, to avoid mats and tangles. You should also get your dog’s hair cut every 3 months, to keep her looking like a teddy-bear with nice and healthy fur. It’s also necessary to trim the hair around her eyes, to prevent infections and sight obstruction. Clip her nails once or twice a month, depending on how long they are and brush her teeth at least 3 times a week to remove tartar. Clean her ears weekly, using a cotton and an ear cleaning solution. She doesn’t get smelly frequently, so occasional baths will do just fine. 

Insuring your Zuchon puppy as soon as “pawssible” is essential for preventing high vet care costs. Start comparing insurance plans from leading insurers like Healthy Paws and Embrace and save over $270 a year.

Zuchon Temperament

The Zuchon is a really happy and friendly dog. They are very sociable, loving, gentle, and lively. This hybrid dog is always looking to please her family; she is also quite intelligent, so it is safe to say she is very easy to train. Zuchons are very loyal and they create deep bonds with their family, they can even understand their owner’s body language. These dogs are excellent with children; they are very gentle, patient, and love to play and get attention. They also get along very well with other dogs and pets. These dogs are happiest when they are a beloved loved family member; they love to snuggle and sleep with their owners. They are very sensitive and suffer from separation anxiety, so it is not recommended to leave her alone for long periods. Other than that, these dogs are very calm, and rarely bark. 

Zuchon Activity Requirements

The Zuchon does not require much activity to stay healthy and happy. They will do well with daily playtime at their homes. However, it is recommended to take her out for a short 15 to 20 minute walk a few times daily, so she can socialize and get fresh air. The Zuchons enjoy sunbathing, playing, and curling up. They also like to swim, so having a plastic pool for her is a great idea. They adapt very well to apartment living. These dogs are meant to live indoors with their families, and they love to sleep with their owners. They do best in moderately warm climates.

I adopted Rosie when she was 4 months old. She is super friendly with people especially kids but can be timid around other dogs. Rosie get’s groomed every 30 days for a bath and trim. When Rosie comes back from a walk she gets a burst of energy also she loves running down the hallway. When Rosie was two she developed bladder stones and needed surgery. After that surgery she was happy and healthy for a year and a half until she developed bladder stones again. So now Rosie is on a special diet and we have to give her water every 2 hours. But thankfully Rosie is happy and healthy. Rosie loves learning new tricks and she can learn them in one or two training sessions. Having Rosie has been a amazing experience.😀

Gave him rawhide. Sleeps on it, chews it, plays

We are just beginning to walk longer. He loves it.
I got Louie when he was 3 months from a barn. He was kept away from humans except for feeding. He was the last one to be sold because of his bigger size. In the early morning, I can’t put him on the floor because he thinks it’s play time and ends up peeing on the floor.We’re getting to know each other. He is excellent with outside but keeps himself separate from other dogs and people. From what you have said about Zuchons unless he grows into it later, I don’t know. I really hope he snuggles later because as soon as I lay down with him, he moves to the other side of the bed. 😢 I do love him but I think growing up in a barn might have really changed him.

Barkley is finally settling down a little. He still has so much energy! On days I take him to doggie daycare and the dog park, he is tired out at night. He was easy to potty train, rarely has an accident in the house. Since it is just him and me, he is very attached to me and follows me wherever I go. He sleeps with me and settles right in when we go to bed at night. All in all, a wonderful dog and companion.

He's perfect for us. During the day he's calm and follows me around while I get the regular day to day chores done. He's very affectionate and snuggly now, which he wasn't when he was a puppy (too excitable probably). In the afternoon when the kids get home he caters to the childrens' energy; has no problem running around. Loves to take a quick walk before bedtime. Sleeps all through the night without any problems. Although is very clingy. If I so much as go to the bathroom at night or whenever he always gets up and goes with me. Refuses to be alone.

Hes really really big for a 6-7 month old. He was born in November 2018. He used to bite a lot but not anymore. I nick name him ‘fluff’ cause of his fur. It’s so fluffy! He has hazel eyes and a very friendly personality. He’s good with kids and babies and gets excited over new people. His uncle is a 7 year old bichon who we’ve had for 5 years now. He doesn’t get along well with simba. Simba is the zuchon. He’s creamy white with a faint sandy spot on his side and 2 sandy ears. I was originally going to call him Titan because he was the biggest out of his litter. But we decided simba because we love the movie ‘the lion king’

a very lovable and happy pup who always wants to play. He enjoys hiding under tables, eating out of the dishwasher,escaping, chasing birds,and sleeping! He always wants a cuddle but doesn't mind being left alone. I would recommend this breed to families who aren't always around the house or to the elderly. Although he can get a bit feisty and chews our fingers he always calms down and is not a vicious dog.

Rosie came to me at 3 months old. She is a 'certified' hybrid in that she came with papers attesting that her respective parents were pure-breds. Yet she is unusual in that she weighs 30 pounds. That is good, because my other dog weighs 100, and Rosie can hold her own when they tussle. She is very loving, almost to the point of being clingy. No health problems to date. Her coat grows like a weed and she goes to the groomer every 60 to 90 days. She has been my constant companion thru dark times and great times. She will be in my heart forever.

She was quite easy to train, except for the fact that she can't hold it sometimes. She is very playful, and sometimes gets carried away, occasionally biting or playing roughly. She means well, she is not vicious. She also enjoys taking several naps throughout the day and gives lots of kisses. Bonita likes attention, and will sometimes bark to get it. Overall, she is a sweet, loving dog. She is young and therefore still learning, and I expect her to only improve with age.

Cooper is very fun and energetic! He loves being outside, and spends his whole day out there with us. Since he is always outside we have to bathe him regularly, which he does not like, but he’s fine during the bath. He loves to cuddle with people on the couch, and loves being covered up with blankets. He also loves belly and ear scratches, he sure is spoiled! He has really bad separation anxiety. We try to groom him once a week. Overall he is really good with kids unless you tease him. He barks at everything, and doesn’t shed! I recommend getting a Zuchon! Their overall character is so fun and energetic, but they can also be loyal, gentle, and calm! Definitely recommend a Zuchon to anyone!

Leo is a 8 week old pup i got him on July 1st and he’s been adjusting well so far. His training a bit good and a bit bad since he has a hard time listening sometimes when we try to train him some basics but he’s starting to slowly respond to his name although not fully yet. He play bites a lot and/or tries to teeth on me and my family and bite anything he finds but we’re watching videos and everything to figure out a way to minimize that! Nonetheless he is very hyper at times, loves playing, follows us around a lot, etc. He’s not a bad pup he’s just still a little baby so its kinda expected of him to be acting this way at first since we just got him a couple days ago and we’re taking it slow with training so he learns it efficiently and well. :) ❤️

He's very sneaky and quiet, I always like to say he acts like a cat. He loves to jump on everything. He loves being outside, he'd probably spend the entire day in our yard if he could.

Jonah has turned out to be a great dog. He is a shih tzu/bichon mix but is very different than our shih tzus. He’s one year old but, comparing him to our shih tzu’s when they were that age (we’ve had many shih tzu’s), he has much more energy. He needs to be walked (shih tzu’s do not) and he is super clingy, meaning if you walk out of the room, he follows...every single time. He gets along very well with our other dogs (aged 12 years and 15 years). He is very lovable but does NOT like to be disciplined. Sometimes he will even snap at us when being spanked (literally tapped) on the bottom. He is very, very intelligent. Surprisingly so. For example, he will actually tell us when he has to use the bathroom (none of my shih tzu’s ever did that) BUT the way he will tell you can be very annoying lol he will put his paw on you and do a whine/bark over and over and over. I guess it’s a good thing. Bottom line...very different if you are used to shih tzu’s. Much more energy, super clingy (which is cute or annoying, depending on your mood), deep-set eyes so I can tell he won’t have all of the eye problems, more interactive with humans, and pickier (acts weird in the car), just to name a few. Just overall more high maintenance than a shih tzu but extremely loving.

When we got him he started to itch his left ear a lot, and it started to get worse and worse. Turns out he had an Autoimmune disease called puppy strangle. Which in his case, caused by genetics. The breeder we got him from, didn’t know the fathers bloodline so that’s probably the reason, we don’t blame her that much. Overall we found a great vet who helped us. And he’s doing better and better each day. He’s not that hyper, not really into walks just yet since he’s still a puppy. He used to hate being brushed, (since how sensitive he was when he was sick) but now that he’s gotten better he loves it! He loves baths and the blow dryer. He has moderate energy , just loves doing indoor playing. He was already pee-pad potty trained by the breeder (starting from 3 weeks old-8weeks) once he got his first vaccination we waited a week, and introduced him to the outside backyard. He loved that more than the pee-pads and started doing his business out there! We only had a few accidents (8-10 overall!) Now he knows the sit,stay,down,spin,leave it, and look at me command only took about 1-2 weeks to feel good about them. Ollie doesn’t bark at the doorbell , or knocks at the door! Which I’m so happy because I have a lot of customers who come to my household. He loves visitors, he love the kids I babysit ,(and children I have). He hasn’t been socialized that much with other pups, because of how sick he was. So he’s a bit ski-dish with other dogs, but we’ve recently introduced him to a corgi who’s younger than him. (3months.) Overall a Zuchon/Shichon is a go to breed and totally recommend. Just need to find a good breeder with a healthy dog bloodline.
