Shorkie 66

A Shorkie is a cross between a Shih-Tzu and a Yorkshire Terrier, two Shorkies, or a Shorkie and one of the original parent breeds. Although a mixed-breed dog may take on any combination of characteristics from one or both of their parent breeds, a Shorkie generally tends to be a small dog that is dedicated to their family and is loving, affectionate, and playful.

This designer dog breed may not be currently recognized by the American Kennel Club, but they are recognized by other notable dog organizations. The Shorkie is recognized by the American Canine Hybrid Club, the Designer Breed Registry, the Designer Dogs Kennel Club, and more.
