What do u think of this? I was contacted last night by a local breeder that also crossbreeds yorkies and poodles. Everyone Keeps telling me that my male who weighs 8 pounds is way to big to breed to a female yorkie, but what do u all think of breeding it with a poodle to make yorkiepoos. I know that you can AKC register them. That a puppy goes for $400.00 to $600.00. :aimeeyork |
There are enough mixed breed pups in shelters. Dont be a part of contributing to the problem.I would not breed your male just keep him as a pet |

Yes you can Regester them Akc, because my sister inlaw actually has yorkipoo and and its registered AKC. Where did you hear that you can't? I also contacted my local vet regarding this, and she told me that same thing, you can register them, and they are a new breed of dog.. |
The yorkie poos cant be registered with AKC because they arent pure bred. And yorkie poos arent their own breed. Yorkie poo is just a name unscrupulous breeders just breeding for money have given them. They are mutts |

akc A simple call to AKC will convince you that AKC ONLY registers purebred dogs from purebred parents. ACA and many others will register mixed breeds. |
LOL!! They are a new AKC accepted breed not a new breed!LOL;) |
A "yorkiepoo" is simply a mixed breed dog - a first generation cross between a purebred yorkie and a purebred poodle. It is not a new breed - it is a mixed breed dog. Both parents of the puppies may be AKC registered as they are purebred, but the mixed puppies can NOT be registered with the AKC. AKC will only register purebred puppies (and the mother and father must be AKC registered). Please Please do not breed mixed breed dogs. There is just no purpose to it...there are already way too many homeless dogs. Look on petfinder.com and you'll find plenty of yorkie and poodle mixes up for adoption. Please don't add to this. Marketing these mixes as "designer dogs" and selling them for high prices is just wrong in my opinion. May I ask you why you are so desperate to breed your dog? Breeding is not something to take lightly - it is a huge responsibility. My baby is almost 8lbs as well, and she's a perfect pet - she is spayed. You should have your dog neutered and just enjoy him as a pet. Most dogs just are not meant to be bred. |
Here - easy to prove that AKC does Not register "yorkie-poos." See any on this list http://www.akc.org/breeds/complete_breed_list.cfm ? Sorry no. It is a mixed breed. It is easy to do your reseach - you just have to look in AKC web site. I did even try to do a search on AKC site for yorkiepoo, yorkipoo, yorkie-poo. And I got nothing. If they actually were recognizing them - the search should have pulled up something. Sorry. Could it have been another registry? T. |

Good post Tina all the info is right there. Deana Prestigeous Yorkies |
There are some registries called "vanity registries" that will register any dog. They appeal to unethical breeders who are trying to fool the uneducated public. I'm thinking about starting my own registry called "Teacup Yorkiepoos Limited" to register your dog, please send me money. |
Why mix breed? Aren't U happy with U're Yorkie? I mean why do U want to take the Yorkie Breed and turn it into something it was never meant to be? If people keep doing this then well have no pure bred Yorkies. I think U should have U're male neutered now for U're still going to run the risk of U're larger puppies even if U breed him to a Yorkie or Poodle that is smaller then him, it could be he's larger due to his line throwing out larger puppies (Contact his breeder to see if this has happened) this is why our Tiffanie had her big babies, her mother did the same thing! If U want to do this the right way, have him neutered and keep him as a pet, then educate U're self about how to breed Yorkies right and how & why not to mix breed. U'll be able to adopt U're babies out with peace of mind knowing U did it the right way and the people who adopt U're puppies will love U for this. If U're just looking to put 2 dogs together then U're looking for heartache and U'll pass that heartache on to people who adopt those babies. Please reconsider the "WHY" of U breeding U're Yorkie male. Really do some soul searching on this before jumping into it, search here on YT, ask questions here on YT, we're here to help U if U'll take our advice and turn this into a learning experience. Find U a GOOD QUALITY BREEDING Yorkie (Ask here on YT what to look for in a good Quality Breeding Yorkie males and females) and build U're way toward the AKC Standard. Go to AKC and read what the AKC Standard is for Yorkies, will U're male fit this standard? If not then neuter him, start over!! Good luck and I hope U learn a lot, and hope this will help U choose what is right. :) |

P.S. I have only 2 pups (males). T. |
Wow, some of these responses are a little harsh. The subject of breeding never fails to raise the emotional level here. |
I see nothing harsh here! :) It's all fact and truth in what is being told! If truth is harsh then I guess some would see it harsh JMHO Donna Bird Brooklynn's Yorkshire Terriers |
I see nothing overly harsh either. It just sounds like the OP is not well educated on breeding and purbred dogs and those of us passionate about this breed don't want to see someone who hasn't done thier homework do something so rash as to breed her purebred yorkie to a poodle and THINK it is the right thing to do, because it is NOT. |
As for the reason i want to breed my yorkie, Well I think most people will think the same reason, to get the money back for the dog. I paid 500 for it and wouldn't mind getting 500 out of him. I have talked to many breeders and told them the same thing, and they totally agree. Ive talked to my vet and she said yorkiepoos are registered purebred, so for the people that say no, I will go with my vet on this one as she has been a vet for longer than i have been alive. I have to agree with the last post, you guys were getting a little harsh. I know that my male will make beautiful puppies with whatever he breeds, and im only going to breed him once. So what is the big deaL??? |
Isn't the love and companionship that he gives you worth $500.? Must he work producing substandard pups to earn his keep? I guess I really don't understand the mentality behind wanting to breed what is obviously a pet quality dog to anything that will breed to it to earn back his purchase price. |
If I didn't want to get into breeding yorkies, then I wouldn't have purchased such a expensive dog. I love my yorkie and I wouldn't ever trade him for anything. He is such a good dog, and loving dog, but I want to breed him, just like mymother wants to breed her teacup yorkie. Eventurally my breeder is going to help me get another female and i will do the same with her. I really dont see anything wrong with wanting to breed him. Have you ever seen yorki-poos. They are adorable. What do u all feel about the Morkies? they are mixed dogs also? But I dont see you complaining to the lady that owns morkies? just complaining on what i want to do with max.. |
Quote:
so,, you "paid 500 for IT"???? so your intention in purchasing this Yorkie is to just make money? Here you will find Yorkie Lovers,who love the breed & hate to hear of it being lessened. As for your vet,,,while I'm glad you are taking your little guy to a vet,, I'm afraid I'd be hunting a new one! (if she knows so little as to tell you a crossbed dog is AKC registerable!) I wish your Yorkie a good happy life!:aimeeyork |

I have seen a couple of $700 "yorkies",, who I could honestly say were the most homely things,, so ill-bred. I'm sorry its just sad. I can only guess you are very young and will hope you can use Yorkie Talk to help educate yourself on such a wonderful breed of dog, and hope your interest in making money off of "it" could turn into a LOVE of the Yorkshire Terrier and allow yourself the ability to learn something of the breed, its history, care, breed requirements & standards. There are so many here with such great knowledge to share, (not myself,, I'm learning here daily and enjoying every bit of it). Please,, since you've found YT,, please take advantage of the knowledge to be found here. Check out the different forums here, you'll be amazed at what you can learn!:animal-pa |

I spent 1200 on a good well bred excellent pedigree male ,Well he got to big to use as a stud so he was neuterd. 1200 out and a vet visit for neutering.Now he is a pet Then had to look forever to find another one that would be the same qualitiy I wanted and spent a ton of money on that one.NOW i have a great breeder to use with my females.We cannot just buy anything that is cheap to breed with because we are low income to make money. We are low income also 4 kids at home one in college and qualify for everything that is available free school meals etcc. I have saved and saved to do this it was just not a oh I am going to buy a yorkie,the cheapest I can find and then use them to try and make money. There is other ways to make money. I am a stay at home mom also but run a day care and have had other jobs working at night when my hubby gets home for extra income. And if you are not going to keep using him ,you made your 500 back that he cost you, now you have a dog you have to pay for neutering and feed besides?? And future vet bills with shots and illnesses if they come up? Pets cost money also even when you are not using them for breeding |

500 is cheap here also for pet quality. |
for the people that think just because is spent 500 on my dog he isn't a pretty dog and comes from a good breeder ext... he has a exxcellent pedigree, his dam and sire are both champion show dogs. The reason i got him for 500 is because my husband works with her fiance and i also help with the animals. So she worked me out a deal. If was to buy him for the full price, he would have cost me 1500. There is nothing homely about max. when i get around to it, ill be posting some pictures.. |
pets Why do some people feel they must recoup the cost of a dog? A dog is a family member, our friend and companion. $500 for 12 to 15 years of love is a very low price...do you feel a need to recoup vet and food expenses over his life time? AND..why do these threads cause such heated and harsh posts..because making money on the backs of our companions is one of the surest ways to cause a huge amount of suffering...we hate to see animals of any sort suffer at the hands of the "unenlightened"...you have no idea what type puppies your dog will produce and will have little say what happens to the future of the offspring over their lifetime, unless you keep them all....simply finding good homes from the outset, does not mean they will not land in a puppymillers hands at some point...or their offspring. |
PS You are saying your male is from champion show dogs and the show breeder is just fine and dandy with you making "mixes" of his genes...I do not believe it? |
