Morkie Puppy - Daphne

Daphne at 4 1/2 mos.
Before we bought a Morkie puppy, I researched the Yorkie and Maltese. I needed a companion for my husband and I that we would feel safe to have our grandchildren around. I also researched names of Yorkies, and Maltese. The name Daphne was picked out even before I saw her. She fits her name (meaning little nymph) to a T. I wanted a small dog that would travel well, as our children, grandchildren, and most of our family live in different parts of the country.
Daphne is everything we could ask for in a small dog. We have had our Morkie for 2 months. She is now 5 months old. We couldn't love her more. She keeps us laughing with her unending spunk, energy, and personality. We don't think she will get much larger. Her last vet visit, at 4 months, she was 4 lbs. She thinks she is 10 ft. tall. The pic doesn't do her justice, I don't know how to get rid of the green eyes. She has dark brown eyes in person.
