The Morkie, a designer breed created by crossing a Yorkshire Terrier and a Maltese, emerged in North America in the early 2000s as part of the growing trend of intentional hybrid dogs. The goal was to combine the affectionate and lively personality of the Maltese with the bold, confident nature of the Yorkie, resulting in a small, loving companion with a spirited attitude. Though not recognized by major kennel clubs as a standardized breed, Morkies have gained popularity for their charming appearance, low-shedding coat, and suitability for apartment living. Their lineage from two historic toy breeds gives them a mix of elegance, playfulness, and devotion, making them a favorite among dog lovers seeking a loyal lapdog with personality.
