Why not add an absolutely adorable bundle of love to your family this summer? Like Libby, one of our sweet Mini Hippo puppies! Mini hippos are known to be very loyal and loving towards their families. They are intelligent dogs who are often eager to please, making them good candidates for obedience training. They have a balanced temperament that includes being playful but also able to settle down. These puppies love to play and can be found chewing on their favorite toys or wrestling each other down at just about any part of the day. Whether it is a game of fetch or some cuddles, these puppies are always up for fun and adventures. They love to explore their surroundings, whether they are outside or inside, anywhere where they can find new treasures to play with, chase each other, play tug-of-war with their toys and find a soft spot to curl up and take a long puppy snooze! These puppies are up to date with their shots and dewormer. They will also be vet checked from noes to toes by a vet. Their mother is a 22 lb. Cocker Spaniel and the dad is a Miniature Shar-Pei. This means these puppies have the adorable looks of the Shar-pei, while maintaining the more balanced disposition of the Cocker Spaniel. When you come to our home, their mother is here on the premises, so you can get the opportunity to meet her if you would like. Ready to meet your new best friend and companion for life? Dont make them wait long and call now to reserve one of these cuties for your own!

Pros
Distinctive “mini hippo” appearance from the Shar-Pei’s characteristic wrinkles in a smaller, more manageable size
Combines the Cocker Spaniel’s friendly, affectionate nature with the Shar-Pei’s loyal, protective character
Lower maintenance exercise requirements than many comparable crossbreeds
Generally good with children and family life when well-socialized from puppyhood
Cons
Shar-Pei heritage introduces brachycephalic airway risk, skin fold infections, and eye entropion concerns requiring active management
Ear infections are an elevated risk from both parent breeds — weekly ear cleaning is non-negotiable
Shar-Pei stubbornness makes consistent, patient training more demanding than with many companion crossbreeds
Skin fold care is a daily commitment throughout the dog’s life
