About Morkie Puppies, Breeders & DogFacts
The Morkie, a cross between the Maltese and the Yorkshire Terrier, is a tiny companion recognized by designer registries such as the ACHC and IDCR but not by the AKC. Adults stand 6-10 inches tall and weigh 4-8 pounds, with a silky, low shedding coat that varies across F1, F1B, and multigen litters from straight and flowing to softly wavy. Expect a bold, spunky personality from the Yorkie side paired with affectionate, lap loving devotion from the Maltese, plus sharp alertness and a tendency to bark at strangers. Health concerns inherited from both parents are outlined in the health panel. Best suited to attentive singles, seniors, or apartment dwellers who can provide gentle handling, daily companionship, and consistent small dog training.
Parent Breeds
This is a designer cross combining: Maltese + Yorkshire Terrier. As a mixed breed cross, individual puppies may inherit traits from either parent breed in varying degrees. Health testing requirements and temperament expectations should be evaluated for both parent breeds.
