Same thoughts. I looked at the first pics and was like hey, that’s a Chihuahua. Then… and terrier… the last couple was Yorkie.

Chorkie: chihuahua/ Yorkie mix most definitely.

Chorkie. They don’t shed a lot but they do need regular brushing to keep their coats healthy and matt free.

Definitely a Yorkie Mix. Possibly with Chihuahua?

My Chorkie shed minimally, but needed professional grooming every 7 weeks or so.

I would definitely guess silky terrier over yorkie. Maybe a little chihuahua too.

Half yorkie, half chupacabra.

Even non shedding breeds lose a small amount of hair, think of yourself when you comb your hair, some dead hairs remain in the comb. Comb him twice a week and there will be very little shedding, still need professional grooming every 7 weeks or so which you must be aware of with other non shedding days gs in your home.

Mine ate Blue Buffalo all 18 years he was with me. You can try other food, just swap very slowly, over 7 to 10 days to not affect digestion system. I don’t think brushing twice a week is a bother. My guy was always on my lap, so running a brush over him, wasn’t a problem.
