Morkies possess a huge personality. Their cuddly and loving nature might make them look like little toys. Still, these Terrier crosses are just as spunky, fearless, and attention-loving as their parent line. Incredibly attached to their master, they are content to be wherever they are and can suffer from separation anxiety if left alone. Thus, they generally do better in single-pet homes. Their tiny size and medium energy make them excellent apartment pets. They make brilliant watchdogs, alerting with loud barks the moment a stranger is detected. However, this tendency to be yappy can quickly become troublesome for neighbors, so proper training is vital.<br/><br/>Despite their bright temperament and playfulness, it is essential to note that they are very fragile. One must be especially careful around younger kids, who might accidentally injure them while playing. Thus, avoiding getting one for households with toddlers and young children is better. Ensure you don’t step on them by mistake and check sofas and beds before sitting or lying down.<br/><br/>Morkies may not shed much but require daily vigorous brushing to prevent tangles and mats in their long, silky hair. A good alternative is to get them professionally groomed in a puppy cut to make their coat manageable. It is best to get this done every few months as their hair grows constantly. Excess fringe over the eyes can be fastened with hair clips for a pleasant look. Bath them every couple weeks or whenever they are dirty, check their ears for dirt and infections, and trim their nails as needed. Being prone to tooth problems, you must practice proper dental hygiene with regular brushing.<br/>Fenced secure yard, or walking on a leash, no dog parks with large dogs present recommended. Savannah is 90% housetrained, is ok in a crate, though prefers sleeping with her person. Her vetting will be completed prior to adoption.<br/>Located in southern Idaho, transport is provided to approved home within the Pacific northwest. Email journeyhomerescue@outlook.com for Savannah.
