Morkies are great little dogs and if you are reading this article you are most likely interested in purchasing a Morkie puppy. Before you buy a puppy, be sure to do a lot of research on both the breed and the breeder. Below I have listed some important information about the Morkie that you should know before buying a puppy.

Important information to know before buying a Morkie

• Look at the Morkie breed
  • Don’t go buying a Morkie puppy on a whim, because you like the look, or because you met a nice one. Be sure to do some research on the breed. The Morkie is not a real breed, it is a designer breed, a cross between a Maltese and a Yorkie. Research the characteristics of Maltese and Yorkies first, and then talk to some people online who own Morkies (look for forums and chat groups).
• Make Sure A Morkie Is Right For You
  • There’s nothing worse than bringing a pet into your family, only to find out you can’t handle or afford it. Before you buy a Morkie, make sure you can afford it and it will suit your lifestyle.

Important Information About Morkie Breeders
Before you get a puppy, make sure you know the breeder, ask lots of questions, and have a list of questions ready before you call. The more informed you are, the easier it will be to bring a new puppy into your home. Here are some tips for finding a good breeder.

• Visit the kennel to make sure it is well cared for and clean.
• Look at the mother and father of your new Morkie puppy, make sure they are healthy and have good features.
• Order tests for the mother and father. Morkie’s breeder should perform some genetic testing on her breeding stock to ensure they are not breeding dogs with known genetic health issues.

Hopefully these tips will help you find the perfect Morkie puppy.
