Sorry, my error, this is the first I have heard of them as Shih Tzu / Yorkshire Terrier. I have known them as the Schnauzer yorkie mix before. Although it should not suprise me, they are cross breeding almost every breed now, and what they charge for what used to be labled as a mutt is ridiculous. They want more for the mixes than they do for the purebred dogs now. You can go to any shelter and get a mixed breed for just the cost of the spay/neuter and will be saving a life. Before I fell in love with the yorkies, I got several of my pets from shelters, and they were wonderful, loving animals. Plus, you can get almost any mix or even a pure bred from shelters, if you ask them to notify you when they get in so and so breed.
