 |  |  |  | I'm a little bigger than the average Yorkie or Maltese. My birth mom was 1/2 Yorkie and 1/2 Maltese but my birth dad was a full Yorkie. They were both a little bigger than their normal breed. When I adopted my current parents, I was 8 weeks old and fit in the palm of my mom's hand, but now at 15 months, I tip the scales at 17 lbs. I am not fat, I move around too much for that, but I am just a big guy!
My next door neighbor is a full Maltese and she is cute! I am just about the same size as her, so I think I get most of my larger size from my mom.
I still love to play with other, whether big or small. In fact, when we take the motor home (a Bounder Diesel ... named after me), I have two Border Collies and a Golden Retrevier to play with. I let them all know that I can play just as hard as them, so I don't let my size bother me.
I think Mom and Dad are lucky that I am not the average Morkie size, because they might have to pick me up to get into the motor home. At my size, I can jump right up those steps.
