Morkies are fairly easy to train. They are very intelligent and able to pick up on tricks quickly but they are also known to have a stubborn streak. Training them requires patience, positive reinforcement, and extra motivation. They respond well to a calm voice, fun methods, and yummy treats. Keeping training sessions short and combining them with fun games, will work best when training a Morkie puppy.

Morkies are social dogs by nature, just like their parent breeds. Their Maltese genes will have them welcoming new faces and making fast buddies with other dogs. It is always best to introduce them gradually to strangers and other pets when they are puppies to help them overcome any shyness later on.

Morkies are family-attached dogs. They love being near their owners at all times and that might pose some issues when they are left alone for extended periods. To avoid separation anxiety in Morkies, it is recommended to leave them alone for a few minutes at a time each day when they are puppies. This will help avoid any destructive behavior in the future and allow them to adjust to some alone time and become more independent.
