Maltese should be bred with Maltese, Yorkies with yorkies. JMO...


Absolutely....why would one promote this type of breeding, and pay that much for a dog that may have not been properly breed and have genetic defects from both breeds.....especially since both these breeds have a greater possibility of Liver Shunt.
