Comments on: 7 Things You Need to Know About the Morkie (Maltese Yorkie mix) https://animalso.com/breeds/morkie/ Tue, 03 Jan 2023 17:07:04 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.8.3 By: Steve K https://animalso.com/breeds/morkie/#comment-22097852 Tue, 03 Jan 2023 17:07:04 +0000 https://animalso.com/?post_type=breeds&p=5085#comment-22097852

When we went to pick up our first (Bear) we sat down at a picnic table outside the breeders home. He was going over the paperwork while my wife held the fur ball. When it came time to settle the bill my wife had forgotten the money in the car. She put him in my cupped hands and as she got up to leave he peed in my hands! I looked him in the eyes and with a smile said “You and I are going to get along just fine!” A year and a half later we found Piper. We’ve never looked back!

I have a 15 year old Morkie and she is a delight to have. She have traveled all over the U.S. with me and accompany me when I go shopping. I just place her in her bag and everyone loves seeing her at the stores. She’s not a service dog but definitely brings me pleasure. Since the pandemic I’ve been working from home and she follows me from one room to the next. When I’m off from work we sit and watch tv together. She let’s me know when she have to go to the bathroom by barking. I n ow know what different sounds of her barks are for. She is potty trained but I still take her for her daily walks. I wish I could clone her because she’s now the perfect dog. I don’t want to lose her but I know in a few years she will be gone. I would love to have another Morkie just like my “Squirt”. My boyfriend named her “Squirt” because we I first got her she used to make small amounts of pee in the house. thank goodness that didn’t last long because she was easy to train. A little accidents here and there but nothing major. I love my Squirty

Hello,

I have 3.5 year old morkie she is 11lbs. About 17inches. In perfect. She was suppose to be 5-7lbs based on parents. She is picky about treats. Dislikes sweets. And hates noise. She is an indoor only. She loves her cage but loves to cuddle up to me when I go to sleep. Ioves everyone but my daughter. She is strong, sturdy and in perfect health per doctor vist in 04/2022.

Why is she bigger than the average morkie?

Why this year did she startcto stratch out a spot to lay down.

Why does she pee in areas of the house when she knows she isn’t suppose to. She knows where to get water and where her cage is and funds her ball.

I have a Morkie. Griffen is wonderful! He is 2 and such a joy. He loves to tear up paper towels and kleenex’s if he gets a hold of them. He is a pick pocket, so I have to keep my pockets zipped or empty. He has been known to chew a face or two off his stuffed toys. I have spent plenty of time sewing them back up. He’s at home all day, while I’m at work, and he doesn’t bark. He isn’t even afraid of fireworks! He sits outside with me and watches them. If he isn’t sleeping, his favorite game is fetch! Fetch…fetch….fetch! He loves all people. Especially the little two leggeds! He think’s he’s ferocious, but he is a big softy. As far as having them to become a part of your family…..10 stars!

I have a morkie. His name is Louie. Louie is a little over a year old. He loves everyone and everyone loves him. He has a somewhat bullish attitude towards other dogs and ups and prime deliveries. Louie spent an hour barking at the lawn mower in the garage today. He requires quite a bit of exercise. Louie is a cuddler/lapdog big time. He’s sleeping on my lap right now.

We just got Smudges (our Morkie) last week! He is already super attached and the best little doggie! He’s learning very quickly how to sit, shake and stay. He was housebroken when we acquired him at 10 weeks! We had our first bath today it was fun! He runs around playing and is ALWAYS underfoot! The best little companion!

My morkie is 13 and people find it hard to believe she’s not a puppy. It’s not only her size. It’s the fact that she literally acts like an eager puppy. I bring her to work daily and my patients love her. Every morning she zooms from office to office to greet my colleagues one by one. She is stubborn FOR SURE but it’s in the best way. One thing to note is her teeth issues as she had to get them all removed earlier this year. This goes for small breeds in general. She is the absolute best breed I’ve ever had minus the barking 🙂
