Meet the breeder

I'm Hyon K., the breeder behind Tennessee Teddy Bears KO located in Knoxville, TN. Our Mini Teddy Bears range from 7-10 pounds full grown & have hypoallergenic coats. Our litters are often very small (2-4 per litter) Oftentimes we wait until they’re 9-11 weeks old before letting them go to homes. Due to them being so small at 8 weeks old.

Q. & A. with Hyon

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I am a huge animal lover and fell in love with Shichons several years ago. They are loving, smart and very intelligent. They are great with children, elderly and people with disabilities. Making them wonderful companions for all households.

  • What makes your program special?

    I put my heart into my puppies and my breeding program in order to produce adorable, and affectionate Shichons. We strive to provide the best quality, well-tempered, and beautiful puppies matching them with the perfect family. Our puppies have scheduled deworming, 4 veterinary checks, an optional microchip with lifetime registration, and two sets of vaccinations.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include cream, black and white, and brown and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
