Yorktese
(Morkie)
(Malkie) (Malki)

Yorkshire Terrier / Maltese Hybrid Dogs

Originally called the Yorktese, but now more commonly called the Morkie is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between the Yorkie and the Maltese. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and know you can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in either breed. Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to breed multi-generation crosses.

Mongrel = Mixed Breed Dogs – Mutt or Mutts

"This is Jenny, she is a three year old, Maltese/Yorkie mix. She has the fur, ears & tail of a Maltese, but the rest of her is pure Yorkie. She likes to think she is boss, and with all the power, of her entire five pounds of weight, she'll take on any and all real & imagined foes, including our 125 pound Great Pyrenees, who ignores her threats. Jenny is also the sweetest most loveable dog you'd ever want to meet. She is our little catalog queen, because she has won three contests, where she was featured in various pet catalogs. Her family includes, two purebred Maltese, one Great Pyrenees, one Amazon Blue Front Parrot & of course us, mom & dad."
