Sometimes called a papitzu, the adorable little papastzu is a hybrid cross between a papillon and a shih tzu. Papastzus weigh between nine and 15 pounds. Their long coats are typically white, black and brown in color, and the coat sheds minimally. A periodic grooming routine will maintain the coat and keep the hair from tangling and matting. Their ears usually hang downward like those of the shih tzu parent. Their tails are long, hanging downward with an upward curl near the end. Papastzus are generally quiet dogs, and they have minimal exercise needs.

Papastzu Pet Insurance
When adding a dog or cat to your family you want to make sure your pet is happy, healthy and protected. During its lifetime your pet is exposed to many illnesses and diseases and some breeds are affected by a congenital disease which is a condition existing at birth. At these moments when your pet is ill or maybe needs surgery, you want to be protected for the unexpected and high veterinarian costs.
