Breed Information
The Morkie breed was developed in the early 2000s during the rise of designer dog popularity. Breeders aimed to blend the Maltese’s gentle nature with the Yorkshire Terrier’s bold personality, resulting in a cuddly yet spirited companion.
Morkies are often bred as first-generation hybrids, but multigenerational Morkies are also common. They were designed to be compact, low-shedding dogs for individuals or families seeking a loving lap companion with a lively spark.
Morkies are friendly, energetic, and people-oriented. They love attention and don’t like being left alone for long periods. Their terrier side gives them a bit of feistiness, but they are generally affectionate and devoted to their owners.
