Yorkie-Chon is a crossbreed from the United States and was supposedly first developed about 20 years ago. It came about as a result of a 50-50 percent mix of the Bichon Frise and Yorkshire Terrier, it is the most varying type of designer dog being a first-generation hybrid. The Yorkie-Chon has existed from the past few decades but only gained popularity about ten years ago.
Although it is quite difficult to clearly state the temperament of the Yorkie-Chon being a crossbreed and inheriting traits from both parents, its temperament can be predicted depending on its dominant traits. It possesses a mild temperament and independent by nature, it is also a very aggressive barker. Yorkie-Chon loves to be in the midst of humans and is an attention seeker. On the other hand, it can also be stubborn and destructive.
Yorkie-Chon is suitable for apartment living and families with children can consider adopting this dog. Some bark a lot and this should be considered when going for a Yorkie-Chon but asides this, it adapts well to any living environment with moderate weather conditions depending on its coat, either silky like the Yorkie or curly and dense like the Bichon.
Yorkie-Chon is a really active dog by nature and does not require strenuous exercise because it burns a lot of calories on its own by staying active. It should be allowed to play around freely indoors. Just a medium amount of exercise routine daily is all it requires.
As beautiful as berners are, it comes at a high price. They are huge shedders and will shed all year long, especially during the spring and fall seasons. To control this, they need to be thoroughly brushed several times every week to prevent tangling of their coat and also minimize the amount of hair around the house.
Their teeth should be brushed at least twice monthly and their nails should be trimmed every other month. The back of their ears and gums should also be checked as often as possible to avoid any infectious occurrences. Every three months, berners should be bathed thoroughly to maintain a neat appearance. If berners are groomed often at a young age, they become more accustomed to it as they grow and will cooperate fully.
