Just like their parents, Jorkie's are incredibly sociable doggies. They absolutely love to be around all sorts of ‘hoomans’, especially children, because this means that they get to do playtime all day long! They have lots of energy and are very bouncy doggies. As a result, they will require a few daily, brisk walks and lots playtime. However, they can also be a tad stubborn, especially if they aren’t receiving the attention that they deserve! This can result in them becoming fairly vocal or potentially destructive. To reduce these sort of developments, we suggest socialising and training your pup from a young age, so that they know they can’t always be the centre of attention! However, they will make lovely family pets and provide you with years of laughter and playtime!

While the recent designer pooch has little standing in terms of a timeline, both parent breeds are well established in English history as working dogs.
