Boca Raton's retiree and professional household culture is a natural fit for the Teddy Bear puppy's devoted, unhurried temperament. The city's established residential communities — the country club neighborhoods of West Boca, the condominium towers of East Boca's oceanfront corridor, the patio homes of Mission Bay and Boca Chase — all represent the long-term, stable household environment where a Teddy Bear puppy's calm character and defined daily care routine are most consistently rewarded. At 9 to 15 pounds with minimal shedding and no cardiac monitoring requirement, the Teddy Bear is the most straightforward long-term companion commitment in our program.
Patch Reef Park's fully fenced off-leash dog areas, Spanish River Park's oceanfront walking paths, and Sugar Sand Park's shaded trails give Boca Raton Teddy Bear owners strong year-round walk options. The key is timing: all outdoor activity from June through September must happen before 7:30am or after 7pm to avoid dangerous pavement surface temperatures and heat stress.
Every Teddy Bear puppy receives our ENS neurological training from days 3 through 16 and a 2-year written health guarantee. Learn about our full placement process.

Palm Beach County Weather: Honest Pros and Cons for Teddy Bear Puppy Owners
Dry Season (November – April) — Outstanding
Palm Beach County's dry season is outstanding for small-breed outdoor activity. January highs in the upper 70s°F with low humidity allow comfortable all-day walking. Boca Raton's winter is the city's finest season for Teddy Bear puppy daily outdoor routines — no cold-weather gear, no ice, no road salt.
Summer (June – October) — Requires Active Management
Boca Raton's wet season brings July highs in the low-to-mid 90s°F with extreme South Florida humidity. Morning walks before 7:30am are mandatory from June through September. Concrete and asphalt surface temperatures can exceed 150°F at peak summer — paw-pad burn risk is real for any small breed. All outdoor activity strictly restricted to early morning and evening during this window.
Heartworm Prevention — Year-Round Mandatory
Palm Beach County's climate supports year-round mosquito activity. There is no safe off-season for heartworm in Boca Raton or anywhere in South Florida. Every dog requires monthly heartworm prevention twelve months per year. Confirm protocol with your Boca Raton vet at the first wellness visit within 48 to 72 hours of delivery.
Grooming Cost in Boca Raton
Professional grooming every 4 to 6 weeks at approximately $68 to $98 per session in the Boca Raton market. South Florida humidity accelerates Teddy Bear coat matting continuously — daily brushing between appointments is more critical here than in any northern state we serve. Daily dental care and eye cleaning are equally non-negotiable.

Three Things Every Boca Raton Teddy Bear Owner Must Accept Before Day One
Daily grooming is permanent. The Teddy Bear coat grows continuously and tangles in 48 hours without daily maintenance. A slicker brush and steel comb every single day. Professional grooming every 4 to 6 weeks at $68 to $98 per session in Boca Raton. South Florida humidity makes skipped days compound faster than in northern climates.
Dental disease is the #1 long-term health cost. The Shih Tzu jaw is small, teeth crowded, tartar accumulates fast. Daily tooth brushing starting in the first week is the only effective prevention. Budget for professional dental cleanings beginning around age 2 to 3.
Eye care is a daily routine. Daily gentle cleaning at the inner corners, hair kept trimmed from the eye surface weekly. This is what separates a healthy 14-year-old Teddy Bear from one with chronic eye issues. Your Boca Raton vet should confirm the protocol at the first wellness exam.
