[edit] Description
Yorkiepoos may range in height from 7-15 inches and may weigh between 2 and 14 pounds [1]. These dogs may be bred from two purebred parents or two hybrid parents. They tend to have a smooth coat, of silky and wavy hair, and can come in a variety of colors. Yorkiepoos can be social with other dogs but may not be friendly with children[2].
[edit] Registration
Associations such as the AKC, the UKC, and the CKC, do not recognize the Yorkipoo, or any other designer cross, as a breed.
