| OMG!!! A MORKIE!!! Help please!!! I just discovered something, I think Tinkerbell had a Morkie, How can I tell for sure though??? I mean it was the second baby that was born, the biggest one (6oz), the one that got stuck her babies are 4 days old today and as I was looking at them closely I noticed that he had "white" tips on the legs OMG, I do have a maltese (Chiquito), and one day he got her for a few seconds but released when I yelled at them, but apperantly he got her pregnant too. This happened while Albert was here, he is the father of the 2 other. I always thought he looked different not only in size but in color I am so shocked I dont know what to say or think!!! I need to show you some pics so you can all help me out. He also has white hairs on his chest

| the white on the chest doesn't mesan he isn't a yorkie. All my babies ecept one have had white markings on their chest. it later turns gold. i have also hadd a couple with white toes. Also turned gold but if you truly think there is a chance you have a morkie, you will have to have ALL possible parents and all the puppies dna'd. |

| Yes, the only way to know is dna testing, because it is possible for pup mothers to carry pups in the same litter from different fathers. But how fun, a new discovery! As long as the pups are healthy and happy, does it really matter??

| It's possible you do have a Morkie. However, some yorkies are born with a little bit of white on their chests and sometimes on their feet, too.

| Milli had a little white on her feet and chest as a puppy, which has turned to tan as she's grown. I think it's cute! Someone told me that they're just going to be a "lighter" yorkie when they have white toes and a little white star on their chests. A little can be "multi-sired"-I had to complain about a breeder once for registering the litter as all purebred AKC yorkies when there was a good chance they were part rat terrier! She was trying to pass them off as purebred yorkies... Here's a link to AKC's multi-sired litter info: http://www.akc.org/dna/multisire.cfm

| If there are any ties besides the intended, a test should be done. This is for their registry and so you can be honest with the prospective owners and not sell them as purebred if there is a possibility they are not.... Even if they only were together a little while she still could have conceived. |

| Yes, just the very tip of the toes, like the nails part, and the chest. The chest I knew it could be but not the paws like I said is mainly the part where the nails come out of.
