also got plenty of spunk but is always ready to
lay and cuddle at anytime. He's not afraid of
strangers and loves to meet to friends and
animals to play with. The Shorkie seems
especially to dislike hot weather. The coat of
course when it is long causes them to be a
little uncomfortable in the heat. puppy cuts are
the preferred cut that easy to maintain and keep

routine to keep and manage.
