    Chorkie

    Chorkies are a delightful cross between a Chihuahua and a Yorkshire Terrier with some dogs being tiny whereas others are small depending on the size of both parents. They first appeared on the scene back in the nineties and they very quickly gained popularity with people all over the world thanks to their small size and the cute characteristics they inherited from their parent breeds.
