Can anyone assist me in locating a good breeder in Texas that may have a male shorkie available?

Okay, I'll bite. What's a shorkie?

shorkie? i really wanna kno what those are!

I *think* it's a s**tzu/yorkie cross. To the OP- most "good" breeders do not breed for mixes.

Wouldn't that be a Yorktzu? I saw some gorgeous s**tzu and Yorkies at the show yesterday but I don't know why you'd want to mix them.

Yes, a shorkie is a shih tzu and yorkie, and are adorable. Here's the site to puppyfind, they have some adorable ones on there, and you can check by states

I completely agree with you.... I can not figure it out for the life of me why you would cross the two...

I have purebreed yorkies but when i was not working a great job i got what i could afford ...

Greedy?? Wow. That seems like a fairly rude comment considering how much money reputable breeders pour into their breeding dogs and puppies. I realize AKC breeds all start out somewhere but there is a standard to breed towards for recognized breeds... It seems as though those breeding mixes ask ridiculously high prices for something unregisterable and unable to be shown. To me, that is being greedy and irresponsible. To contribute to the over-population of mixed breed dogs is terrible irresponsible. JMHO.

Most of these mixes are not done by accident. They are done for money.

I thought the same thing.

I had a relative that used to breed morkies..She had a morkie, and she would breed to a yorkie or a maltese..She had them all sold before the dog would even have the pups. You had beautiful pups, and NO, she did not get rich selling them, she sold them for $300-$400, and that had shots included, etc. believe me, she hardly made anything off of her babies. To her it was more important they went to good loving homes, and she was such a stickler, she wouldn't sell to anyone she didn't even know. I'm sorry, I have to be one to disagree!! A lot of people want the "designer" dogs, and that's their own preference. No one should ever try telling someone that looking for a "certain" kind of dog is wrong
