A purebred maltese, poodle, yorkie, bichon are just some examples of hypoallergenic breeds that are usually suitable to people with allergies again depending on what the person is allergic to. I say usually because if it is dog dander the person is allergic to, then no breed will be suitable. Some dog allergies are to the fur such as that in labs or german shepherds for example. The famous claim of labradoodles being hypoallergenic won't work if the puppy hits back more into the lab parent. I have seen more than ones offered for sale as the new owner was allergic to it. A Morkie, Porkie Yorkie poo is a mix aka mutt. And I agree with Peters, there are too many already, go to a shelter and rescue one, there are enough of them there. |

I can't remember the exact price I paid for Trixie (yorkiepoo), I think I paid $500 for her. A good price around here. I am glad I spent the money, I love my Trixie bear and wouldn't know what to do without her. |
Oh I think alot of the mixed breeds are cute morkies especially. I just think there are already alot of mixed breeds in shelters that desperately need homes |
3 Attachment(s) It doesn't really matter what dog you get you would all likely love it just as much, mix or purebred. As long as you aren't misled when you buy it. I am hard pressed to understand the high prices that mixes are fetching. As a kid at home, we always had a dog, always some sort of mix and always was free. Somehow through relatives and friends, someone knew of someone with puppies. As long as you know you are not getting a certain breed, it is a mix. There is no such thing as hybrid vigour in mixes, bad genes that can be carried through generations don't care if they turn up in a mixed breed or a purebred (that reputable purebred breeders are diligent to keep out of their lines). The more breeds you mix, the more variation of bad genes possible to come through the various breeds that have made up the puppy. A mix can be anything both in size and appearance, from looking like one breed that one parent is to looking like the other breed the other parent is and everything inbetween. I have had grooming clients that bought a maltipoo from parents no more than 5 lbs, the pup grew to 20 lbs and didn't look like the maltipoo pup their friend had from the same parents, different litter. If you buy a pet from a reputable show breeder, you have a better idea of what you are getting for a pet. Here's some pictures of some pet puppies I sold recently. |

Yup, a little offensive. And I was asking prices, not opinions. Everyone that meets my Yorki-poo like him better than my Yorkie. |

In my opinion, anything over about 2 or 3 hundred dollars for a mix is too much. But that's my opinion. |

Maybe I should be clearer and ask you. Is your Yorkie not look much like a Yorkie? Is his temperment not good? You said people don't like him as much as the Yorkiepoo? I find that odd. |
When I was little we had a collie-mix named Bubzy. He was the cutest dog ever...black and tan, huge tail, short little legs with a chubby body, and a long snout. If I was to find a mix that looked like him I would pay a lot for then. Price would only be determmined by what I could afford. Other than that, I won't pay more then $350. |
muffie is a yorkie-poo and i paid 500. for a mix'd breed, i think 500 is plenty. 950 is way too much for a morkie. maltese in my area start at 600-800. |

everyone loves my yorkie-poo better than my yorkie. it makes me sad for kirby. muffy is more concerned about everyone else than her self. kirby on the other hand cares about himself and his wants and needs (sounds like a man). dont get me wrong...they like kirby but the LOVE muffie |
I don't understand why a pure breed Yorkie costs $900 either. (Don't get me wrong...I have paid it, but I don't understand it). Why would a pure Yorkie that comes from somewhat good blood lines be worth $900, but a mix breed that comes from wonderful blood lines be worth much less. I don't understand the whole system of putting a price on a dog. Just like a Yorkie pup (pure) with great bloodlines and no complications at birth or after will sell for $1500, and we all think the pup is worth it. But you have another breed with just as good bloodlines and no complications at birth and the pups are only worth $400. I just don't get that. Isn't it simply about the popularity of the breed? It seems like there is a double standard when it comes to the price of a pup. Plus, didn't a lot of the breeds we have today begin by mixing one breed with another? Am I making any sense? Just something to think about. I don't intend for this to sound rude or judgemental...just food for thought. Again, ignore spelling please. |
2 Attachment(s) Because he is adorable. He looks like a little teddy bear and has a great temperment. Lily is very hyper and can't sit still and Elvis loves everyone and wants your attention. Lily is a gorgeous dog, but for some reason, everyone wants a Yorki-poo after they meet Elvis. |
