Species group: Mixed Breeds

Other name(s): BoShih

The basics:
RightPet does not advocate the intentional cross-breeding of purebred dogs. But the reality is that most dogs available for adoption at shelters and rescues are mixed breeds. We think it might be helpful to hear from owners of these mixes to see what traits can be found in these dogs who are desperately needing homes.

The first generation BoShih is a cross between a pure Boston Terrier and a pure Shih Tzu, although subsequent generations may have different proportions of the two breeds in the mix. This so-called designer hybrid is intended to create an apartment-sized toy that fits easily into many families.

Appearance / health:
While all mixed-breed dogs can vary in appearance, the cute little BoShih can display a surprising variety of coats.

Behavior / temperament:
While it's impossible to predict the exact personality of a mixed-breed dog, the BoShih is intended to be a portable companion, and these playful little pets usually love being the center of the family's attention.
