Zuchon or Shichon is a hybrid breed dog or a designer dog. It is cross between Bichon Frisé and Shih Tzu. The Zuchon is a small designer dog with a height around 12 inches and weighing 12 to 14 pounds. ''Zuchon'' is a portmanteau name combining the two breed names and is not accepted as a breed by the AKC or any other major recognised dog breed registry. 〔(Zuchon Characteristics ), tinytracks.net, 2001, accessed October 20, 2009.〕 It is a dog that does not shed but it also requires maintenance with regular grooming. Because it is a hybrid dog from two purebreds, it is known to have hybrid vigor, when they are first generation, could possibly have better health than the purebred dogs. 〔(Shichhon Information ), dogpage.us, 1997, accessed October 20, 2009.〕 However, if they are not first generation, health problems can exist. The dog breed has a short history beginning only at the turn of the 21st century. 〔 ==Description== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zuchon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
