By Staff WriterLast Updated April 09, 2020

A morkie poo is a hybrid breed of dog created by crossing a morkie (a Maltese and Yorkshire terrier mix) with a poodle. Because this breed is considered a designer breed and is relatively new, as of August 2014 it is not officially recognized by any kennel clubs.

The morkie poo is a gentle and affectionate small breed of dog that can weigh between 5 to 12 pounds. These dogs are generally all black but can also be brown or a combination of black and white. The morkie poo is a very friendly, intelligent and clever dog that learns and performs tricks easily.
