I've noticed most yorkies act the same. Anyone have experience with this mix breed? I've only had him a few days and he's absolutely adorable but worried about size and temperament? I know alot has to do with training early. Anyone? Or can anyone post pix of their mix? |
Well, I can tell you, I've ran into a few mixed breed yorkies- one I've seen quite a bit, and my gal considers her "best" friend. The Yorkie poodle we looked at scared the CRAP out of me, It's energy was ridiculous and i was terrified, I'll be honest!
Her "best" friend Carlie is a yorkie/shnauzer. She is just like any other yorkie I've seen or heard of. She's very, very, similar to my gal- except in one teensy detail. She talks. A lot. Chewie does, too. She always has, She even talks back. Carlie, however, is ridiculously vocal. Chewie will come back barking while husband is eating dinner. I say that, because she will NEVER beg from husband. Me? yes. Husband? No. She even learned to bark like a fiend from Carlie, particularly at this huge dog. This was all newly learned in the last four months. I'm saying this because each dog has personality traits, and in order for you to truly know you'll have to research to know the traits of the Pomeranian, then wait to see if it's a mixture of both, or one more than the other.
*I want to add that my husband's best friend-someone who is "uncle" to my daughter, had a yorkie/coton de tulear mix. She's stubborn and willful, just like a yorkie. She also allowed my 5 month old puppy to dominate her completely. In her own home. And she was 4 at the time. I'm giving you these examples so you'll know it's seriously a toss up.
