Shichons typically weigh between 7 and 15 pounds and stand about 9 to 12 inches tall. They are great companions and love to be around their owners, making them a popular choice for families and individuals alike. 

The Mal-shi, or Malti Tzu, is another cute and cuddly teddy bear breed that is a cross between the Maltese and the Shih Tzu. This breed is also known for its soft and fluffy coat, which can be straight or wavy. Mal-shis usually weigh between 6 and 15 pounds and stand about 10 inches tall.
