Yorkie Chon Puppies For Sale

About the Breed

The Yorkie Chon is a beautiful little dog that is also recognized as the Yorkie Bichon, Yo Chon, Borkie, and Yorkshire Frise. This designer dog is a cross between the Bichon Frise and Yorkshire Terrier. Though they have been around for a few decades, their popularity has dramatically increased over the last 10 years due to their low maintenance and friendly nature. 

Appearance and Grooming

This toy dog, with a blunt muzzle, black nose, round skull and eyes, and a long tail, has a dense and hypoallergenic coat that makes it a perfect pet for allergy sufferers. Regular monthly trimmings are important for this breed as well as daily brushing. Their dense hair can become tangled and knotted easily. Depending on their parents, your designer breed puppy can be a combination of many colors including, black, blonde, brown, cream, dark, brown, golden, gray, and white.

Temperament

Their energetic spirit partnered with their strong sense of curiosity is sure to keep you on your toes. Though it won’t be spilt evenly, this puppy will inherit combinations of different characteristics of its parents. The boisterous and vocal nature of this high-pitch barker makes for a great watch dog. They are very fond of people and love to get attention. However, their curiosity and sometimes stubborn ways can prove destructive if left alone too long. 

Family and Companionship

With a mild temperament and a streak of independence, these dogs make for the perfect companion as they don’t need constant attention. Though they do love human companionship, leaving them to entertain themselves for too long can prove to be destructive as they tend to get bored. With their fun-loving and playful personality, they make for great additions to a family with children and other pets. It is important to supervise play as these delicate pups think they are large and will not back down. In addition to a family unit, they also fit in perfectly with singles and seniors living in an apartment or house, with or without a yard.

Exercise

This breed is naturally active, so they don’t require an overly strenuous exercise regimen every day.  Though small walks are recommended, allowing them to play freely indoors with plenty of toys will surely burn plenty of calories and help to keep them healthy and trim.

Training and Socialization

You can expect your Yorkie Chon to be a lively and intelligent little dog. Beginning training at an early age is very important for these pups as they show a high level of intelligence and interest at a very young age in learning how to do tricks.

Socialization is also important at a young age as your new puppy may start showing negative behaviors, such as territorial aggression, fearfulness, or excessive barking. If these traits are not corrected immediately they can be difficult to change as your dog ages.
