TINY TEDDY BEAR ZUCHONS
WELCOME TO OUR TINY TEDDY BEAR ZUCHON'S HOME PAGE


 Thanks for visiting our family of Tiny Teddy Bear Zuchon's, also called Shichon's, or Shih-Tzu/Bichon. We are the original Tiny Teddies of Vancouver Island, located in Cowichan Valley, B.C. Canada.  
We are a small in home Teddy Bear Zuchon hobby breeder. We occasionally and responsibly breed Zuchon's (and only Zuchon's), with temperament, health and beauty in mind. A true Teddy Bear puppy is a Shih-Tzu and Bichon cross, integrating both breeds together weeds out all the imperfections pure breeds are plagued with and creates a superior hybrid. Our Zuchon's adults and parents are our beloved, healthy and happy companions, being Zuchon's themselves they are of excellent health and temperament (and are NEVER for sale). They are our furry kids and go on all vacations with us, enjoy days filled with snuggles, treats, play, toys and napping. They have free reign inside and out of our house, allowed on our couches and beds. When I am busy working and quietly wait just out side my salon door, sometimes peaking in for a visit in between. 
 
To Share your life with a Zuchon is a true blessing, They give us much more than we can ever give them back, they are a charming and rewarding breed to fall in Love with.
Have a look around, we have shared pictures of our Zuchon dogs & puppies (aka Shichon or Shih-Tzu/Bichon), pictures of past litters, pictures and references sent to us from their new families, Info about dog care, up coming litters, breed info, how to care for your new puppy and much much more.

 Our Hybrid Pups come from proven health, beauty & temperament lines. Pups arrive & keep a variety of colors, from solid coat, parti color, tri color and even the rare Apricot & Reds and the very rare chocolate coloring(both fur & skin). Their coats range from soft curly coat to smooth silky coat. Their coats are hypo allergenic and non-shed so if you have allergies and have previously been unable to enjoy a dog for a pet, then our puppies are the perfect choice for you.

All pups come litter box trained, socialized, pre snuggled, groomed, vet checked, shots, genetic guarantee etc. We provide loads of pictures & video to watch your puppy grow. Keeping you part for your pups life from the beginning.


 Pups and parents are raised in our home as part of our family, with most of the house and yard catered just to them, they are fun to treat royally and yet it never goes to their heads. They are extremely balanced dogs, very easy to train and love to do everything from tricks, jumps, flips, fetching, catching, camping, cuddling, condos, yard even your purse. They are the truly  charming, go anywhere do anything dog & companion. They get along well with everyone, adults, kids other dogs even cats, making it hard to have just one.
 
Our pups are part of our beloved family,
and are intended for companion purposes only, and not for breeding. For the arrival of each litter my husband and myself take 2 weeks off work, and sleep in 4hr shifts to dedicate 24 hr loving care to our mum and pups.  Just a few reasons why we do this is to ensure the pups are kept an the perfect temperature, evenly nursing, and remain clear of mum accidentally laying on one. Our litters are also always hand whelped in our living room, mum never delivers alone, we cut each umbilical cord, preventing the umbilical hernia, a very common occurrence when the mum delivers alone. My husband and myself help the entire delivery and record each pups details. Having a complete birth record of each pup ensures all pups are growing at the expected rate and more. There are many benefits to the pups and mum having this kind of attention. The pups are then raised in the heart of our home, and are an active and important part of our daily lives. They are our beloved family members just like the parents are. Our pups are always the center of our home, and take priority over all else.  They can see and hear everything that goes on in our home on a day to day basis and mom comes and goes to them as she wishes. So our pups truly are nurtured, loved and cared for from their very first breath. Please come in and look around. We have pictures of our Zuchon dogs & puppies (aka Shichon or Shih-Tzu/Bichon) , pictures of past litters, pictures and references sent to us from their new families. Info about dog care, up coming litters, breed info, how to care for your new puppy and more.

   We are very dedicated and involved with our dogs & pups. Our adult dogs are our companions and will never be for sale, they are our family members.
 As our puppy's life time guardians, If any of our fur parents cannot keep our puppy/dog at anytime for any reason we require you return our dog to us. Ensuring our puppy's will never be in a shelter or kennel. We will take our dogs back into our home and family and re adopt when appropriate to an approved family.

We personally write/design our own web site, so the info on this site is accurate and from us personally. Our purpose in sharing 9 pages of info, past pup pictures, current pup pictures, our dogs pictures, mum & dad pictures, videos, details, breed info, health info, loads of references & updates, etc on line is to offer up every bit of info possible to you. Before even taking the next steps of meeting us and the pups. That way you can really get to know us, and with the help of our web site you can browse through at your leisure, read and re read any detail you want. Always making an informed decision.

 Please view our Planned Future Litters page or Available Puppy's Info page for more info on our available pups.
