Breed Info:
The Yorkie Schnauzer mix combines the best of both beloved breeds — the bold, affectionate Yorkie and the loyal, intelligent Schnauzer. These dogs are known for their bright minds, lively energy, and deep devotion to their families. They’re small but mighty, confident little companions who love to be included in everything. Their coats are low-shedding and soft, making them great for those looking for a smaller, easy-to-manage dog.
Owner Responsibilities:
Tiny Duke may be tiny, but he’ll need regular care and consistency to grow into the best version of himself. Provide him with nutritious food, short walks or play sessions to burn off puppy energy, and plenty of love and patience as he learns. Regular grooming will keep his coat healthy and shiny, and early training will help his clever mind stay active. Duke thrives on attention and affection — he’ll be happiest right by your side.
Things to Consider Before Adopting:
Before bringing Tiny Duke home, please take a moment to think about your lifestyle and commitment:
Do you have time for daily play, walks, and cuddles?
Are you ready for puppy energy and training?
Is your home pet-safe and ready for a small, curious explorer?
Are you committed to providing care and companionship for life?
Will you ensure he’s never left alone for long periods?
Remember — a dog isn’t temporary. He’s family.
Vet Care:
Tiny Duke is healthy, vaccinated, and neutered. Even so, it’s important to visit your vet soon after adoption to establish his care plan, keep up with booster vaccines, and ensure his growth stays on track.
The 3-3-3 Rule & Commitment for Life:
The first 3 days: He’ll need patience and quiet time to adjust.
The first 3 weeks: He’ll start to learn your home, your routines, and your heart.
The first 3 months: He’ll know he’s home — safe, loved, and forever yours.
Adopting Tiny Duke means saying yes to a lifetime of loyalty, laughter, and love.
Why Tiny Duke Would Be a Great Addition:
Tiny Duke might be small, but he’s packed with personality. He’s the perfect companion for anyone who loves playful energy, endless affection, and a dog who adores being part of your life. His bright spirit and loving nature will warm your heart every single day.
