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... |
These are the kind of people who will do whatever they want regardless of what you say. Why not tell them about the cruelty and horrors of puppymills that supply to the petstores. BECAUSE it won't matter! They don't care where the dog comes from they want a morkie. That is why puppymills and bybs who perpetrate untold abuse on defenseless animals continue to stay in business. Unethical, uncaring puppy buyers who want what they want. Don't believe they'd go to a reputable breeder, if there where such a thing, of morkies. It's like all the people who buy the cheapest puppy they can find on the internet, irregardless of the fact that most of those cheap puppies aren't coming from reputable breeders. Those people want what they want and they will get it, doesn't matter where the puppy comes from.
