I recently purchased my puppy from a local breeder, I was looking for a toy Poodle, small and hypoallergic. The lady asked me to meet her at a gas station and told me the puppy I was buying is a Shih-Poo (Shitzu Poodle mix), regardless of what he is I love him. However I am somewhat concerned, as he is only three months and he has started shedding a lot and he seems to be growing fast. When I got him last month, he was 4 lbs and now he is 8 lbs. Can someone tell me what mix breed does he look like and how big will he grow? I love him regardless and want to know so I can take proper care of him and figure out how to deal with my allergies.

Normally Poodles and dogs in their line like a Bichon don't shed. They have more human like hair qualities and are great for people with allergies.
The hair on the dog doesn't look like a Poodle to me. To tell you the truth, I really can't tell what this dog is mixed with. I know it will be a medium sized god when full grown and won't be the small dog you were hoping for.
For your allergies you'll need to take the dog to the groomer and have some of the hair cut. This will also help some in the dog shedding, but not much.
