A Shichon through a Kentucky year
A Shichon's Kentucky summer is mostly a grooming story.
Highs top 85°F on about 88 days a year and July climbs to around 89°F, but the detail that matters for this coat is the humidity, with July dew points near 67°F, and a Shichon coat mats unless somebody keeps after it. That somebody is you, brush in hand several times a week, and daily if you can swing it. Book a professional trim about every 6–8 weeks as well, so the teddy-bear look stays fluffy rather than felted. The friendlier months sit on either side of the heat: April and October both bring highs around 70°F, and that's when a walk can stretch out along the RiverWalk at Mitch McConnell Park in Bowling Green, the North Lexington YMCA Legacy trail in Lexington or the Jim King Trail in Louisville. Winter keeps things brisk, with January highs near 44°F, cool weather for the humans in coats and a fine excuse for a freshly brushed Zuchon to show off the fluff.
Raising a Shichon puppy in Kentucky
The first 3 months matter most for socialization, so a Kentucky Shichon's education starts the week it arrives.
Each day brings a few new people, a friendly healthy dog and some household sounds, every meeting short and calm, plus early introductions to any other pets. Children sit on the floor to cuddle the puppy, with a grown-up close by during play. Brushing, combing, nail trims and tooth brushing start that first week, and brushing continues most days so mats never get a foothold. Meals are three small ones a day, and a few safe chew toys rotate to stay interesting. Trips outside stretch apart slowly, since a puppy's bladder lasts about one hour per month of age. A positive-reinforcement puppy class can start from 7–8 weeks, before the vaccine series ends, if sick dogs are avoided and your vet agrees; PetSmart Dog Training in Bowling Green and Rosetree Dog Training LLC in Lexington list them. Later, with your vet's go-ahead, Bark Park at H.P. Thomas Park, Pleasant Ridge Dog Park in Lexington and Cherokee Park in Louisville join the routine.

Getting your Shichon puppy to Kentucky
From the breeder's arms to yours
Your Shichon can come home to Kentucky two ways, and your Travel Concierge plans the trip with you. Because Shichons are short-nosed, they travel only by flight nanny or Pampered Ground, never as standard air cargo.
An approved ground partner drives your puppy to the address nearest you in a climate-controlled cabin.
A flight nanny, usually an off-duty flight attendant, carries your puppy in the cabin from the breeder's arms to yours, same day.
- 1You reserve your Shichon and choose how it travels.
- 2The breeder's vet examines your puppy 3 to 5 days before it leaves; the health certificate and the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection, required by law for interstate travel, are included.
- 3Most puppies are home in one to three weeks, and your own vet sees yours within 72 hours of arrival.
Before your Shichon puppy comes home
A little paperwork, a lot of love
The rabies vaccine protects your puppy against rabies, and Kentucky requires it by 4 months of age. A licensed vet gives it on the schedule Kentucky requires. Keep the rabies certificate the vet gives you; the rules for bringing a dog into Kentucky ask for it.
In Kentucky, dog licensing is set locally by each city or county, so check the rules where you live.
Take your puppy to your own vet within 72 hours of arrival.
Only with Pawrade, you receive a pet insurance policy with no waiting period included for immediate accident or illness coverage, 1 month, with every puppy.†
†NH, NY, RI, SC and TN residents excluded. Activated by calling MetLife; coverage begins immediately following policy activation. See the offer for full terms.
