How big do Peekapoms get?

Peekapoms are tiny dogs, typically weighing 4-12 pounds and standing 6-9 inches tall. They're compact lap dogs perfect for apartment living.

Do Peekapoms shed a lot?

Yes, Peekapoms shed quite a bit despite their small size. Both parent breeds have thick double coats that shed year-round with heavy seasonal shedding.

Are Peekapoms good with children?

Peekapoms are better suited for adults or families with older children. Their small size makes them fragile, and they can be snippy if handled roughly.

Do Peekapoms have breathing problems?

Peekapoms may inherit breathing issues if they have the Pekingese's flat face. Choose breeders who prioritize longer muzzles for better breathing.

Are Peekapoms easy to train?

Peekapoms can be stubborn, inheriting independent streaks from both parent breeds. Patient, positive training with treats works best. Keep sessions short.

Care Tips for Peekapoms

Tip #1

Daily Coat Care: Peekapoms have thick double coats requiring daily brushing to prevent mats, especially around the mane and behind the ears.

Tip #2

Temperature Regulation: Both parent breeds can overheat easily. Keep them cool in warm weather, provide air conditioning, and never leave them in hot cars.

Tip #3

Facial Care: If they inherit the Pekingese's flat face, clean facial wrinkles daily and watch for breathing issues during exercise or heat.
