The origin of the Yorkiepoo?

If you want to buy a Yorkiepoo, you are looking for a hybrid dog that was first bred in the USA as a so-called designer dog. Even if this breed has not yet been recognised as such by any club, it is an approved breed nonetheless. Yorkiepoo breeders, like conventional breeders, have to strive to meet certain standards and they don't choose their breeding dogs randomly.

Yorkiepoos are bred from crossing Yorkshire Terriers and Toy Poodles. Yorkiepoo breeders only use Toy Poodles or so-called Miniature Poodles in these mating scenarios.

What are the breed characteristics of a Yorkiepoo?

One reason for breeding these hybrid dogs is that they are considered hypoallergenic. They don't shed a lot, have little to no dandruff and therefore are less likely to trigger allergies. Compared to the poodle, which is also a hypoallergenic dog, the Yorkiepoo has a much smoother coat.

Nevertheless, there is a good amount of energy in these little four-legged friends. If you want to buy a Yorkiepoo, you should keep in mind that this is not just a lap dog or handbag dog.

What are typical diseases of the Yorkiepoo?

Generally, this hybrid breed is considered to be very healthy. However, they can suffer from elbow dysplasia or even patella dislocations. With these dogs especially, as all small breeds, special attention must be paid to their dental care.

What should be considered when breeding Yorkiepoos?

Above all, not just any person should breed dogs randomly, but leave this to experienced breeders only. When breeding small breeds, however, it is essential that the mother animal must always be larger than the male dog. Breeding should always be done under veterinary supervision. Especially with small breeds, problems arise during childbirth and Caesarean sections are regularly performed.
