About Chorkie Puppies, Breeders & DogFacts
The Chorkie, a cross between the Chihuahua and the Yorkshire Terrier, is a toy sized companion recognized by the ACHC and IDCR rather than the AKC. Adults typically stand 6-9 inches and weigh 4-10 pounds, with coats ranging from the Yorkie's silky, low shedding texture to the Chihuahua's shorter, smoother variety depending on whether the dog is F1, F1B, or multigen. Expect a bold, alert, feisty little dog that is deeply loyal to one person, wary of strangers, and quick to bark. Best suited to adult households or families with older children who can commit to patient training and dental care.
Parent Breeds
