Yorkie-Poo

The Yorkiepoo, also called a Yorkiedoodle or a Yo-Yopoo, is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between the Yorkshire Terrier and the Poodle. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and know you can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in either breed. This hybrid cross is recognized by the American Canine Hybrid Club as the Yorkie-Poo. Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to breed multi-generation crosses.

Their coat is non-shedding so this makes a yorkiepoo a good choice for allergy sufferers. The coat should be soft and silky. The coat can be wavy, curly, or straight and comes in all different colors. The eyes are dark with a lively expression. They can be almond shaped or round. The nose is black. The ears may stand up like a yorkies or may drop like a poodles. The feet are small and oval shaped. The impression one should get from a yorkiepoo is that of a well-proportioned dog.

The yorkiepoos personality can be a mix of both parent dogs. It is friendly, self confident, loyal, energetic, brave, intelligent, playful, sweet, and loving. The yorkiepoo loves their family very much and would have their feelings hurt if left out. They may be small but can run very fast. Although this beautiful mix is easily trained they can be quite stubborn. The yorkiepoo truly thinks that it is a big dog. Even though they are small in stature the yorkiepoo makes an excellent watch dog.
