Physically, a toy or small dog and a bichon frize are similar to each other. When they are crossed together, the resulting hybrid is known as a bichpoo or poochon. Both breeds are French. A dog cannot be any color other than Friesian white, but among white curly-haired pooches, it can be difficult to distinguish a dog from a bichpoo.
Hybrid dogs
A hybrid dog, also known as a designer dog, is a mixture of two purebred animals. Among hybrids, poodle parents are popular because of their low coats. a cross with a golden retriever produced in a goldendoodle; A cross with a cocker spaniel cross is a cockapoo. The thing about a hybrid is, you never know what to expect when you mate two pure colors to create a hybrid. Puppies may be any combination of any of the characteristics found in the parents’ genetics.
You can expect a curly coat with a bichpoo: a white bichon frise’s coat is curly, and a bichon frise’s coat is curly no matter what color it is. At maturity, Frisians stand between 12 and 9 inches tall at the shoulder, males being taller than females. Toy poodles cannot exceed 10 inches at the shoulder, miniature poodles are 11 to 15 inches at the shoulder, and standard poodles are 15 inches or higher.
general look
Nuances such as the rounded head shape and slightly elongated ears may tell you that the dog is a bichpoo rather than a hound. If your bichpoo is with a poodle parent, expect it to be a smaller dog than one with a poodle or poodle. Most kebabs are between 9 and 15 inches in Maturuty, and weigh between 10 and 20 pounds. It is very unusual for a breeder to mate a bichon frize and a standard poodle, but it is possible. In this case, the dog would be expected to be taller, leaner, and more active—perhaps 15 inches in height or greater, and weighing twice as much as the average dog. No matter which side of the family your dog takes after, his curly coat requires visits to the groomer.
Bichpoo mood
Expect the bichpoo to play well with others, whether the others have two or four feet. The bichon frichon was born strictly for companionship, so they love attention. Although both parental breeds are affectionate and love people, poodles are more athletic and active than bichons. Since poodles are among the smartest of canines, and bichons have happy rules, the bichpoo must be a bright and cheerful little dog.
House training can be a challenge with bichons, but it’s generally easier with poodles, so hopefully your dog will take after his kin in this department.
Health problems
Watch out for eye problems with your poochon pet, because both parent breeds are prone to eye diseases. Small dogs in general often suffer from dental disease and sagging knees. Poodles are prone to hypothyroidism as they age, while bichons tend to develop allergies. This result in hair loss, and ear and skin infections. Expect a bichpoo with a strong genetic pedigree to share your life for another 15 years or so.
