Poochin Build Information
A poochin is the hybrid cross between a poodle and a Japanese chin. These small dogs weigh between three and 13 pounds and stand between seven and 15 inches tall at the shoulders. The coat ranges from medium to long in length, and it can be wavy or curly. Regular grooming sessions are needed to keep the coat neat and to prevent matting, but poochins shed minimally. Poochin coats may be white, golden, tan, brown and black, gray or black. The ears flop downward.
