Hypoallergenic and Non-shedding GROOMING REQUIREMENTS: Best if maintained every 4-6 weeks. Keep in mind your Shorkie can return to us for their normal grooming schedules. Especially nice for them to come back and visit their parents. We love for you to keep in touch with us! EXERCISE REQUIREMENTS: Throw the Ball! Walk? Treadmill? Go ahead...dust it off! :0) GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS: Excellent! Amazing! Fun to watch at play! WATCHDOG ABILITY: Fantastic alert dogs, allowing to let you know someone is around. Better then your monthly paid home security system! WEIGHT: 3-10 pounds. The size of the Shorkie can vary since they are a mix breed. We cannot guarantee sizes. Most of our babies are under 8 lbs fully grown. You will be able to view the parents and get a great idea of the puppies size when he or she fully is matured. Our Shiht zu moms are under 6 pounds, very small. HEIGHT: 4-9 inches. COLORS: Solids & Parties OVERVIEW: The Shorkie is sweet and playful. They also have plenty of spunk and are always ready to lay and cuddle with you. She is not afraid of strangers and loves to meet other animals to play with. Out in Arizona, it's a more ideal situation to keep your Shorkie in a puppy coat versus the full coat, this makes them feel more comfortable during our hot season. Growing your Shorkie into a full coat length is strictly a personal preference and of course, is absolutely gorgeous, however, this does require every other day brushing to keep her de- matted. COAT: A variety of colors, including the Yorkie black/tan, red, beige, white mixed in with the coats, and many other variety of Parti Colors. Sometimes they favor the yorkie appearance, other times the shihtzu appearance! CHARACTER: The Shorkie is an independent breed that is intelligent, lovable, affectionate, socialble, trainable and always cheerful. It seldom barks and is for the most part, very laid back. It is very adaptable to many lifestyles. TEMPERAMENT: This dog always gets along with other household pets and children. It is gentle and always in a happy mood with the tail wagging constantly as a reminder of how happy and loved they are. CARE: Grooming is required to prevent tangles. The coat must be combed and brushed everyday if it is in full coat. Having the puppy cut again, is preferred and very easy for all involved with little maintenance involved. TRAINING: This breed is very sweet and gentle and very willing to please. As with any training process to include potty training your puppy, consistency is essential in the training process. They are very trainable and our puppy parents are amazed! We work with them to use our doggie door. By the time our puppies leave our home to yours, they use our doggie door to perfection. It's an ideal situation if you install a doggie door prior to bringing your puppy home. Gives him instant access and freedom to go outdoors and enjoy the weather. ACTIVITY: Shorkies are happy with short walks or long walks. They thrive better just a yorkie does with another companion around. It's ideal for your shorkie to have a companion, especially if your household is at work all day. This helps alleviate the guilt feelings associated with leaving your little guy at home. It also makes for a lot of entertainment for you and your family to watch the two play and take care of each other. WE DESIRE IS TO MAKE OUR SHORKIE PUPPIES NEW HOME, THEIR FOREVER HOME! Please understand why we ask so many questions and really want to get to know you as should get to know us. I pride myself in being the expert in matching puppies and people and it shows from the incredible references we have. By getting to know you and your family, the way your household is run, your lifestyle, etc., I am better equipped to place the right puppy with you and your family. It is my job to get to know each puppy and their personality. When a client asks me that he or she wants a puppy whose disposition is quiet and calm, I can assure them just which puppy in the litter has those qualities. Getting to know our puppies on every level makes your decision process a little more easier. A puppy isn't picked just for his or her physical appearance, many factors go into your decision process. We always encourage you to stay as long as you'd like and visit us as well as our puppies so that you can make a very good decision for you and/or your family members! After all, your puppy will be with you for a very long time! We strive at keeping our puppies and adult dogs at optimal health with our choice of NuVet Plus Supplements. We highly encourage you when bringing your new Shorkie or AKC Yorkie home, to keep the supplement as part of their daily regime. Please click on the NuVet picture below, to educate yourself on this magnificent supplement, and to complete your ordering process. FIRST DAY HOME When your new shorkie puppy arrives home, it's very exciting and special. Every family member has been waiting this this very exciting moment. They are ready to spend hours with the puppy. Each family member is looking for their position with their new puppy and looking for their new responsibilities. Remember kids, there is feeding time, bathing time and poop scoop time! From the time your new Shorkie gets home, it;s very exciting for the human family , but to our new little fur puppy, it can be exhausting, and scary. Remember this is a new home, people and surroundings, for you new puppy. Your new shorkie baby will need lots of love, patience, and kindness, but he also needs clear rules and expectations from day one. Your new baby will also need his very own place that is a safe environment all around him. I recommend an exercise pen, or playpen. Some basic rules for the kids should include: 1. Pick up your toys...or they may get chewed up. 2. Don’t wake a sleeping puppy, she needs her rest, that's when they do most of their growing. 3. Don’t interrupt a puppy who is eating. You might get bit. 4. Always sit when holding your puppy. Puppies may break bones when dropped. 5. Don’t hit a puppy. It’s an adult’s job to discipline. I train with a flyswatter, ask me? 6. Your puppy is not a toy, so take good care of her AND....keep all MAGNETS far away from your puppy, or else children.... this is what happens....... "Their First Bath!" The Shorkies are carefully selected for breeding with our Shih tzu and AKC Yorkshire Terrier lineages and designed to place an emphasis on maintaining a loyal, devoted and steadfast temperament, while enhancing desired physical characteristics. Shorkie puppies are celebrated for their exceptional loyalty and devotion to its family members. The ideal temperament of a Shorkie is very stable, dedicated, confident, loving and sweet in nature and is that of an exceptional family companion. Shorkies thrive on pleasing their owners, are highly intelligent, very trainable! Shorkies are considered a designer breed. The American Canine Hybrid Club recognizes the Shorkie as an "official hybrid designer dog." |
