A Designer Dog, The Morkie is a cross
between a pure-bred Maltese and a pure-bred Yorkshire Terrier.
The Maltese:
For all his
diminutive size, the Maltese seems to be without fear. He is trusting,
affectionate and among the gentlest mannered of all little dogs. He is
lively and playful as well as vigorous. Despite his size the Maltese is
without fear. The Maltese is a good choice for people who live in small
apartments because of his size, but for the same reason it is not a good
candidate for those with small children, unless the owner can provide
constant supervision. Highly intelligent and good at learning tricks,
Maltese also tend to get along with other pets well. A good watchdog, they
love to romp and play.
The Yorkie:
One of the most glamorous and popular of the
toy breeds, it is amazing to believe that it was originally bred to control
rats in Yorkshire mines and cotton mills.
Always eager for adventure, the Yorkie
doesn't know it's a small dog. They have been described as inquisitive
and stubborn, sometimes aggressive to strange dogs. They tend to exercise
themselves around the home.
