A Yo Chon is a tan colored dog:
Common Nicknames: Borkie, Yo-Chon, Yorkie-Bichon, Yorkshire Frise. Description: The Bichon Yorkie is a toy cross breed known for being alert, energetic, intelligent, loving, and playful. It is the cross of the Bichon Frise and Yorkshire Terrier.
The Yo-Chon is friendly, smart and often playful. Generally very happy, most owners even consider this breed clownish. The Yo-Chon does well with children and bonds with the entire family. It loves to participate in family oriented activities. It may be shy around new people, but will eventually warm up. Some are known to have a strong prey drive and owners should be aware and work on training and socialization.
The Yo-chon is a medium maintenance breed and requires monthly grooming because of its long hair. It also requires brushing at least three times a week, due to the Bichon, wool-like hair that mats easily.
However they do need brushing at least three times a week, due to the bichon wool-like hair that matts easily.
If you're having problems training your dog or getting control, you should read our review of DogProblems.com. Adam will do whatever it takes to help you whip your dog into shape. I've used them to help with my Great Dane as well as help friends train their dogs. It's the first place I go to help answer users Questions. Many training issues are too extensive to answer in this forum, which is why I refer a lot of the load to his site.
Update: I've been using and recommending DogProblems for three years now. I, as well as my users, value the techniques we've learned. I get weekly emails from users who have become better owners from the information they received.
This is my spunky boy Ollie! He loves to play with other pups and cuddle with his human mommy and his big brother Bailey the maltese. He loves giving kisses and crazy I know but he actually gives hugs! Next week is our last class in puppy training and he's doing great. I've found he's picked up on commands very fast and remembers them. As of right now he weighs 9 pounds at 5 months old so I'm unsure of what his full adult weight will be.. I've tried using puppy weight calculators and I've gotten everything from 11 to 18 to 21 pounds so who knows I guess I'll just enjoy my boy no matter what size! Very lovable dog, you will definitely not be lonely with this breed.. at least with my Ollie.. if I'm gone for a second hes running around looking for me and when I return it's like he hasn't seen me in a year and I'm greeted with kisses!! If you like to have alone time then I suggest another breed but being someone with anxiety and stress Ollie's the perfect pup to have around!!♡

Description:
Fun loving and playful. Very affectionate but perhaps a little too clingy. He gets on very well with other dogs but wanted to dominate so castration advised by vet at 8 months old. He is beginning to relax more and is a fabulous good tempered house member.

Name:
Teejay
Color:
beige/caramel
Description:
Teejay is small, cute, handsome, cuddly and an extremley lovable and loyal yochon puppy. He is very energetic and has his mad moments running around the house. He loves long walks in the woods. He is fantastic with small children and somehow knows to behave around them without getting too excited. He gets on very well with other pets; our old cat and rabbits and he is very friendly and excitable with other dogs he meets in the park. So far he has learnt to sit, shake a paw and retrieve toys. He is very intelligent and quick at learning things except when it comes to toilet training which he is still getting the hang off. His hair is not too much maintenance however he has needed a puppy trim to stop his hair getting in his eyes and the good thing about yochons is that they are hyperallergenic (non-allergy). The yochon in general tend to dislike being left alone even for short periods of time (we have found Teejay cries even when we leave the room and then he greets us like he hasn't seen us for ages). He currently weighs 8lbs and is around 9 and half inches tall (23cm) On the whole I would personally recommend this breed of dog too anybody who wants a small dog and who has young children.

Alfie is an extremely intelligent puppy who loves to learn new tricks and interact with his family. His superb temperament with other dogs means he is safe and reliable to be left to play with the other family dogs. He loves to play with children, and knows to be gentle.
