I'm asking this, because I met this couple who wanted to get morkie. Of course, I told them that there's not much history behind morkie and they are from BYB or puppy mill. I asked them if they can consider either yorkie or maltese. They saw morkie and fell in love with how it looked. I told them cross breed puppies don't have standard look, so they all look different. They said "yes, that's what we want, one of the kind!"  When I told them that no reputable breeder will cross breed and it would be the best idea to get morkie from shelter if they really want morkie pup. They said"well, we saw many morkies at the pet store, so there must be decent morkie breeder out there" I lost my words, and didn't know what to tell... |
You did your best. However, you missed one small come back. "No reputable breeder would sell their pups to a pet store.
No reputable breeder cross breeds, and if for some reason an "accident" occurred, pups from said accident would be placed in qualified homes without a fee.
