The best companion seemed to be the maltese but I just didn't think I could handle the white coat. In our research we discovered Morkies or Yorktese. I fell in love with them & that is how we found Stormy. I know many have strong opinions on this, but I honestly do not see any difference in paying big bucks for a yorkie that I want for a pet companion (no intention of breeding) & paying half that for a mix breed that I want as a pet companion. (To be honest I had not even heard the term "designer pup"). We are so thankful we found her - Stormy really is the sweetest & most gentle dog I have been around. She has more the temperment & looks of a Maltese (IMO) - just not the white coat to take care of!! (& she is very gentle with our 2 lb.Kodah) Here are a couple of pictures of our "priceless" Morkie:

Your morkie is adorable. Stormy is so cute. She is so sweet.
