| Looking for a Yorkie/Jack Russell I'm new to this puppy business, all of my previous dogs have been rescues from humane society's, and the last small breed I had was a Lhasa about 20 years ago. I recently purchased an "oops" from a woman who breeds Yorkies. She also has a male Jack Russell and her Yorkie "accidentally" mated with him, the result was my Teddy Bear. He has the long hair like a yorkie, but he's black and white like a jack russell, and he appears to have gotten the best attributes from both breeds. He is adorable and extremely smart. At 15 weeks old he is completely potty trained and he can do sit, stay, down, shake hands, roll over, play dead and fetch (for treats of course). Anyway, I have several friends interested in this mix, but the breeder that i got Teddy from isn't going to breed the two anymore, as I said, he was an oops. So does anyone out there know of any breeders who are currently breeding this mix anywhere near the Hudson Valley, NY area? They are just looking for pets, not show dogs so papers aren't important, just want to be sure they aren't coming from a puppy mill or some other nasty place. |

| I'm sorry, I don't know of any yorkie/jack russell breeders, but do you have a pic of your puppy? I would LOVE to see him, as I've never seen this mix before.

| I do have pictures of him, but I can't figure out how to post them except on my profile, it keeps telling me the file is too big. Any suggestions? |

| i saw a this mix at petsmart the other day. sry i dunno where the lady got the puppy but she was a cutie. she was really tiny and had short hair with yorkie colors/markings...probably didnt look anything like the puppy u have, but still a cutie. thats the only problem with mixed breeds u dont really know which traits they will get from each breed. but good luck!

| from the small photo you have what I would do is maybe steer them towards biewers. They have that black and whit look and are beautiful and best of all are Yorkies. |

| I don't know of anyone who breeds Jack russells with Yorkies, but I do think your puppy is beautiful.

| why a jack russell I don't know why anyone would want to breed a jack russell with a yorkie, I have a rescue Jack Russell thats just plain NUTS. I can't begin to describe just how crazy she is, she totaly off the sane scale, If it wasn't for my hubbie she be gone. |

| I took a Jack Russell / s**tzu mix away from my son and his girlfriend. They were not taking good care of her. Poor little thing. She is so ugly she's kind of cute. She gets called a little old man all the time at the dog park (she's only 2 yrs. old). It must be her beard. I didn't really want another dog but she is the sweetest little dog. Way better behaved then my yorkies. |

| I have a yorkie/jrt that actually looks nothing like yours . That's the thing with mixes, you never know how they will turn out. I don't recommend getting a mix, most all of them are from byb's and puppy mills. Why not tell your friend about purebreds instead? |
