About the Morkie

Morkies are the result of crossing a Maltese with a Yorkshire Terrier, and the combination produced something genuinely irresistible. These tiny dogs carry themselves with the confidence of a breed three times their size, and that gap between their stature and their personality is exactly what their owners love most. They are affectionate to the point of being velcro dogs, happiest when they are close to their person and very much aware of everything happening around them. Despite being a newer designer breed developed in the early 2000s, Morkies have built a devoted following fast. They adapt well to apartment living, travel easily, and form deep bonds with their families. Their silky coats need regular attention, but they tend to shed less than a purebred Yorkie, which makes them popular with people sensitive to dog hair. Morkie owners tend to be fiercely proud of their little dogs, and honestly, the breed earns every bit of that devotion. This collection is here to celebrate them.
