* Chorkies are already small: They're a cross between a Chihuahua and a Yorkshire Terrier, both being small breeds.
* Yorkies are toy breed: Yorkshire Terriers are a toy breed, meaning they're typically under 7 pounds.
* Genetics: While the size of the puppies depends on the specific genes they inherit from both parents, the chances of them being toy-sized are very high.
However, there are a few things to consider:
* Parent size: The size of the parent Chorkie and the parent Yorkie will play a role. If either parent is on the larger end of their breed standard, the puppies might be slightly bigger.
* Multiple litters: Even if the first litter is toy-sized, subsequent litters could produce larger puppies.
* Unexpected genes: Occasionally, unexpected genes can influence size, but this is less common.
In conclusion: It's very likely that a Chorkie-Yorkie mix would be a toy breed, but there's always a chance of variation depending on the genetics involved.
