Morkie

Good to know

• A crossbreed: a mix of Maltese and Yorkshire Terrier, so traits vary with each dog's parents.
• Coat care: both parents have long, silky, low-shedding coats, so most need regular brushing and trims.
• Small but spirited: the Yorkie side brings terrier spunk, so many are lively and quick to bark.
• A low-shedding coat. Some people with allergies find that easier to live with, but no breed is allergen-free.
• A designer breed, from crossing two purebred parents, so size, coat and temperament vary more than in a purebred.

Getting out with a Morkie
