I keep both my yorkie and my yorkiepoo in teddy bear puppy cuts but the yorkie is easier to maintian I think, and I dont have to worry so much if I'm a little over due on grooming. Of course I would reccomend adopting if your getting a hybrid, at least then you'll know what the coat will look like and any medical issues. Good luck!

Tucker has the same type of coat, I HAVE to have him groomed every 4 to 6 weeks or he looks dirty and mangly..lol..He also has allergies but his are more enviromental (i think, trying different foods didnt help much) so he is on medicines to help him. He is the first mix Ive owned in awhile and other than my elder sheltie he has had alot of issues. I love him to dealth,he is very loyal and dedicated to me and I would definitly own another one, I would go to a shelter first. good luck!!
