Adventures of an Urban Nomad - What's in a Name?

Laurence Harrould - Sunday, December 18, 2011

The current house we're in has an interesting dog - a poodle shihtzu cross. She's very cute but does some distinctly odd things - especially associated with her toilet habits. To do a wee she does a handstand - standing on her front paws with her rear sticking up in the air. Poohing is done on the move so that when we pick up after her (being good doggy citizens) we have to follow her trail.


Anyway, she got me thinking about the names of dog cross breeds. There's Cavoodles (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel x Poodle), Spoodles (Spaniel x Poodle), Groodles (Golden Retriever x Poodle), Moodles (Maltese x Poodle), Labradoodles (Labrador x Poodle), even Shmoodles (Shihtzu X Maltese x Poodle) and lots more.

So, my big question for this week is: what's a Shihtzu x Poodle called? Using the above examples it's probably a Shioodle. However, it does seem a bit unfair that the poodle part is always at the end. So, in the interest of equality I think it should be a Pooshiht.
