| Yorkie/Shi-tzu mix?? Does anyone have one? A friend of mine keeps seeing them in her paper and wants to know what they look like as an adult so I told her I'd ask on YT. I just can't picture that kind of cross. If you have one please post a picture that I can show her. Thanks. |

| I myself do not have one, but do have a Japanese Chin / Poodle mix. It is hard to tell what purebred puppies are going to look like. Sure there are pictures representing the breed, but within every breed there are pups who mature into dogs that are quite different than the "norm". You have to remember, every dog is different. That being said, if it is this difficult to figure out what a purebred pup is going to look like, it is next to impossible to figure out what a mixed pup is going to look like when grown. You should have your friend google some of the dog mixes and look at just how different they can turn out even though they are from the same mix of breeds. Not sure that this is going to help, but would like your friend to know that it isn't as cut and dry as seeing a picture or two. Also remind your friend that they will want to research the temperaments and health problems associated with the two breeds.

| Go to www.topknotchpups.com and click on the mixed breed page. They have "Shorkies" there.

| I believe that there is a yorkie s**tzu mix that was for sale under the wanted and for sale section, but then I think she changed her mind. There is pics though and what a gorgeous puppy it is! check it out!

This was my "Buddy" who I had for 11 years, and lost him last year. That is when I bought Jack. Buddy was so gentle, loving and protective. It worked out to be a good mix.

| Our neighbour has a Yorkie/Shihtzu and he is a very nice dog. He has a beautiful coat. His coat is way nicer than my Yorkie and my Shihtzu. I was amazed at the coat on this dog and she doesn't spend a lot of time maintaining him. |

| i myself have a yorkie/shi tzu mix! and her name is zowee. Her birthday is January 4th 2007 and she's an awesome dog! Her coat is a brindle(ish) color and she's got white patches on her feet. I love her and can't wait for the puppies to come! If you're interested in seeing a few pictures, you're welcome to send me an email address and i'd be happy to send some over. In a few months, we will be breeding her with my full bred yorkie boy. |

| I saw a couple with 2 "shorkies" and they were cute, but they had underbites like many shih tzus I've seen. My grand parents have a shih tzu and the underbite is the only thing that kind of weirds me out. I'm not familiar enough with the breed to know if an underbite is characteristic of it or not??? |
