Toy poodles, Yorshire Terries or Yorkie-POO?

yorkie poos are MUTTS.. there's no predictable traits or qualities

Both poodles and yorkies require daily grooming to prevent matting.

cuteness is a matter of personal preference.

Cuteness is the worst reason to get a dog. Also the yorki-poo is not a breed, and frankly sounds vulgar, its a yorkshire terrier x poodle mix.

All are toy dogs. IM not the best at toy dogs. But like any breed of dog YOU need to do the research not some strangers online.

Well I have a Yorkshire terrier and he is the best little dog ever!
He is adorable, extremley playful, but grooming is a sore spot with me
You have to brush them 1 once a week and they need regular grooming appointments and I have a short attention span. Haha

My wonderful puppy moochie!

Poodles are pretty smart dogs,and if it's your 1st dog, I wouldn't recommend them.

Yorki-poo isn't a breed. if a "breeder" is trying to sell you one,RUN.

It's a scam

either the yorkie or the toy poodle, not the mutt, I mean "yorkiepoo". It would probably cost you twice as much as a purebred.

I owned a toy poodle years ago and she was wonderful!

Do not BUY a Yorkshire x Poodle=If you want this Adopt a MUTT.

Remember puppies require you to be home most of the day, max time away is 2hours! Adult dogs can be left home MAX 8hours!

1st option, Adopt and Save a life & DON'T reject the adults!

Looks like your based your choice on cuteness factor 1st,
Temperment is way more important, follow by exercise requirements & grooming! DO NOT choose a breed based on cuteness factor-Lets face the facts, CUTE puppy as they get older, they LOOSE the cute appeal! Example a Husky Puppy is cute? But are they for everyone? No

All 3 have very high grooming requirements,
Poodles 3-4monthly clipping, the Yorkshire x Poodle=Same as the Poodles-Don't be fooled by the term Poodle x, Doesn't mean they'll be low shedding at all! & the yorkshire terrier also has high matanence coat!

Mutts are ONLY breed for Profit, they are NOT genetically sound, they have behavioural problems & temperment issues such as aggression, Mutts are bred for 2 reason, Profit and Cuteness factor! By buying from a "breeder" or "petstore" You are profiting puppy mills and backyard breeder and creating a demand, while thosounds & thousand of animals die needlessly in the shelter, pounds & rescue, desperatly waiting for a new home, for the simple reason they aren't enough homes for them all!

However by adopting from a shelter you are guarantee the mutts or the purebred have a SOUND temperment, as they've been thoroughly temperment tested proior to be put up for adoption, and you are NOT creating a demand and NOT profit irresponsible breeder, you are being responsible and saving a life!

Because BreedX is 'Cool', was in a movie you saw, is unique and exotic, is free/cheap, or other such nonsense . . . One of the WORSE reasons to get a dog, or any other animal, for that matter, is because of their physical appearance or popularity due to a movie, TV show, or other publicity. Often, these venues feature exotic, rare or unique breeds that are, in the overwhelming majority of pet situations, unsuitable as companions. This visibility may also draw out those 'breeders' whose primary motivation is profit versus health, temperament, structural soundness and the welfare of their dogs.

And, remember to incorporate the same thoughtful consideration on whether or not to get a dog, and which breed or mix, when your friend, coworker or relative offers you one of Fluffy's puppies. Dogs are never really 'free' or 'cheap' and, in reality, require significant financial, physical, time, and environmental resources. At a minimum, none of these, or other such reasons, are sound selection factors for getting a dog and selecting a particular breed or mix. And, remember, if it is difficult for you to find information on a particular breed, or a breeder of the breed, it follows that you will most likely also have difficulty finding local support services that are familiar with the training, health care, and maintenance needs of that breed.

INTENTION AND REASON :-Many people getting dogs simply because they are cute and adorable, a nice present for their children and love ones and they always let their hearts rule their heads, they forgot the puppies will grow into bigger sizes and health problems that might arise when the dogs are older, some dog owners would then decide to sell away their dogs when this happens which I strongly discourage as this is an act of irresponsible. Ask yourself what is the intention of you getting a dog or more than one dog? Companion dogs for companion? For emotional support? To overcome your irrational fear such as fear in the dark or anxiety when being alone? Large dogs or Working dogs for protection and house watching? Top breeds for show purpose and enjoy the glory? Please refer to Dog Breeds where you can see all the different dog breeds from a-z. Whatever the reasons maybe I do believe having a good human-dog relationship can bring you therapeutic value.

Let's start out by saying "THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A "TEACUP" PUPPY".

With that in mind, let me say this; It seems as though there is a plethora of people who are insistent on buying tiny puppies in the 2 to 4 pound range. Also commonly referred to as a "Teacup puppy".

The word "Teacup" has been used to merely describe the size of a puppy, meaning it is very small and will probably be under the standard size which is 4 to 7 pounds for the Toy Group, Yorkshire Terrier breed. We cannot imagine anyone wanting anything smaller than that! Their bones are VERY fragile and can be broken by jumping off of a coach, falling off of a bed, being stepped on or worse.

Many breeders, while tacking a whooping price on a puppy, "claim" to breed so called "teacups" as if they were a breed all their own. Don't be fooled! They are NOT a breed of their own.

If a breeder says they specialize in "teacups" RUN, RUN, RUN for the hills! Most "TEACUP" puppies are in reality, a premature puppy.

Most females are bred on the ninth through the fifteenth day of their heat cycles. Eggs can be fertilized for up to 72 hours after any of these breeding's. Therefore, it is possible to have puppies conceived up to a week or so younger than the puppies first conceived in a litter. However, when the first puppies conceived are mature and ready to be born, labor starts and all the puppies will be born, no matter when they were fertilized.

Some of the problems that may be encountered are both genetic and congenital in these tiny babies and the list is a long one.

The risk of open fontanels (soft spot from the cranial bone not forming), portosystemic shunts (PSS- abnormal vessel that allows blood to bypass the liver. As a result the blood is not cleansed by one of the bodies filters: the liver.), hypoglycemia, cardiac problems, collapsing trachea, luxating patellas, Leggs Calves Perthes disease, seizures, hydroencephaly, blindness and digestive problems can be increased in these tiny babies.

Problems such as respiratory problems can remain or worsen throughout their lives. These babies frequently are so fragile that they do not live more than a few years. There have been several tiny Yorkies as adults who still had open fontanels and their owners had to carry nourishment with them all the time. Their vets have felt it unsafe to give a full dose of vaccine so the puppies had to get several injections to be on the safe side.

There is no such thing as a "tea cup" Yorkshire Terrier, Maltese, Poodle, or any other breed for that matter. They simply do not exist. "Tea-cup" is just a marketing ploy given by unethical and unscrupulous breeders to drive up the price of their puppies!

So called "Teacups" fetch anything from $1000 to $10,000! This is ridiculous and shameful! There are a lot of chronically, unhealthy puppies because unscrupulous breeders and puppy mills are inbreeding. Some poor darlings only live for a very, very short time!

They take the little teeny, tiny Yorkies and they breed 2 1/2 pounders with 3 pounders … well, they’re playing with genetics. You should NEVER breed a female of any breed less than 5 pounds.

PLEASE educate yourselves before buying a tiny puppy whether it is a Yorkie or any other breed. You could be in for months or years of heartbreak not to mention staggering veterinarian bills!

DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!! IF YOU WANT A HEALTHY PUPPY, DON'T FALL FOR THE TEACUP ACT!

Grooming of the yorkshire terrier
Regular grooming is needed. A clipped coat needs daily to weekly combing and brushing. Topknot is usually tied back with ribbon. Full show coats need hours of grooming. They should have their teeth cleaned regularly. This breed sheds little to no hair.

Poodles
Care: The Poodle requires extensive grooming. Professional clipping must be done every six to eight weeks. The coat may be groomed in three different styles: the Pet Clip, English Saddle, and Continental. Bathing should only be done when necessary using a mild shampoo. Daily brushing is highly recommended to prevent mats and tangles. It is important that the Poodles teeth and ears are checked and cleaned on a consistent basis. This breed is prone to cataracts, PRA, allergies, skin disorders, diabetes, epilepsy, and heart disease.

I hate when people say mutts for yorkie-poo. The cross breed is specifically made for it to be hyper-allergenic, in other words for people who have allergies cuz of dogs and they want to have a dog, this would be the correct breed. You would know what to expect with the yorkie-poo, just read on the characteristics of both and then you would know what to expect and it would be safer for people in your house if theirs any people with allergies

You people are stupid and elitist.

I have a yorkie-poo,(and 2 shelter rescues). Mine is sweet and smart, she favors the poodle more as far as appearance.
I would go see the dogs and then decide, you should be able to tell if you two will fit after being around the dog for a bit.

I have a 4 month yorkie poo and she is the best thing in the whole world. She has the wavy long black hair and weighs 4.4lbs. I think that it doesn't matter what the breed is. I totally didn't want this kind of a dog, but when I saw her it was a whole different story. Pretty much thought of a name for her when I first laid eyes on her, and when I held her I could tell it was perfect. I even waited a whole day on a busy weekend to make sure I was ment to have her. When I came back she was so happy to see me. JUST PERFECT! That is how you know that the dog is ment for you. It has to feel right, and you have to be prepared for anything.
