FAQs
Are Chorkies good dogs?
Chorkies make excellent companions for those seeking a small, affectionate, and loyal dog with a bold personality. They bond closely with their owners and are great lap dogs, though they may exhibit stubbornness and territorial behaviour. They require early socialisation and training to manage their tendency to bark frequently, especially if bored or anxious.
Do Chorkies bark a lot?
Chorkies tend to be quite vocal and may bark frequently, particularly when they feel anxious, bored, or protective. Their barking can serve as an alert to strangers or new guests. Early socialisation and consistent training are important to help curb excessive barking, although some level of barking is typical for the breed.
What is the lifespan of a Chorkie?
The average lifespan of a Chorkie is typically between 12 and 15 years, provided they receive proper care, good nutrition, and regular veterinary check-ups. This lifespan is common for small breeds that mix Chihuahua and Yorkshire Terrier traits.
How much grooming do Chorkies require?
Chorkies require regular grooming that depends on their coat type; those with longer hair need brushing at least twice a week and monthly baths, while those with shorter coats require less frequent grooming. Routine dental care, ear cleaning, and bathing are essential to keep them healthy and comfortable.
