would you breed
 

Hey I was wondering if anyone here would breed a yorkie and
maltese. I am keeping a girl so I dont have puppies comming out my ears but I would like to know if any of you would breed them ?

Not I.

Me neither. There are enough mixes at the shelters.

Neither would I.

Me neither . I work in a shelter and there are too many needing homes .

Nope, a trip to your local dog shelter, should answer that question.

I'm not a Breeder, but I must say there is no way I would mix breed if I was one.
The shelter's are already full of mix breeds, I would hope someone wanting one would look there. They really need forever loving homes.

I was just wondering
 

ok I was just wondering I wouldnt do it either but the people I got tia from bred her with a yorkie and i believe they sold the puppies. but i am keeping a fwmale so I dont have that problem , Tia and callie are both females. and they are the two i am keeping.

this is what i heard
 

anway i heard that yorkies already have maltese in them lookit up i found that on a website iwas just curious.

I'm not a breeder...but I wouldn't do it if I were.

I know it was just a question.
I would like to see the website you found. I never heard Yorkies have Maltese in them. I would be interested in reading it if you have the link to it. :)

I realize there are a lot of animals in shelters- mostly mixes correct?

I believe the reason for that is because purebreds have their own rescues, which keeps them out of shelters, but leaves many purebreds needing a home.

So I guess if we are going to say, don't breed a mix, we also better say, don't breed a purebred dog either, until all the rescues no longer have dogs.

It isn't only mixes that end up homeless- have you looked at the yorkie rescues lately?? my oh my there are a lot of yorkies needing homes.

So I say this- if you are going to say no to mixing, then you also better be saying no to breeding purebred dogs also....

We have a no kill shelter in our town, I have been there many times, we adopted a cat from there, but we had gone to look at dogs also.

I asked them, why are there no purebreds? except a few larger purebred dogs (labs mostly) they told me that the rescues for each type of purebred dog calls, and comes and gets them.

So I think it is unfair to continue to point people to shelters, but yet support breeding yorkies... since the yorkie rescues are full of purebred yorkies.

I would imagine that then all of those opposed to breeding mixes, and point people to shelters are also opposed to breeding purebreds and have gotten all their yorkies from rescues (yorkie rescues) right?

Until this happens, (no more breeding yorkies until all rescues are empty) then I see no reason for preaching "shelters" unless you yourself are also helping the homeless yorkies also (and I don't mean by donating money) I mean by opening up your home to them, and no longer breeding them.

I doubt that to be true, don't believe everything you read on the net.

i'll go look for it.
 

hey i will lgo look for it again and give it to you.

almost every
 

almost every website i went siad that and even a book said that.
