The Shiffon, sometimes called a Silky Jack Russell, is a cross between the Brussels Griffon and the Shih Tzu. While this playful, friendly dog is a smaller breed, weighing 10 to 15 pounds and standing only around 9 inches high, their medium-length silky coats, which come in a vast variety of colors, offer little to no shedding but do require regular grooming. The life expectancy of the Shiffon is 12 to 15 years.

When adding a dog or cat to your family you want to make sure your pet is happy, healthy and protected. During its lifetime your pet is exposed to many illnesses and diseases and some breeds are affected by a congenital disease which is a condition existing at birth. At these moments when your pet is ill or maybe needs surgery, you want to be protected for the unexpected and high veterinarian costs.
