Welcome to Royal T Mi-Kis
We have puppies!
Welcome to Royal T Mi-Kis! We’re a Colorado-based breeder of quality Mi-Ki puppies from health-tested parents. Our home-raised puppies are lovingly socialized and arrive already starting to use potty pads, with their first set of shots, an optional microchip, and the first month of free pet insurance. They are ready to fit right in with your family!
The Mi-Ki is a rare and wonderful breed that is known for its sensitive and adaptable nature. Mi-Kis aren’t yappy, they do not require a lot of exercise, and the long coat variety has hypoallergenic characteristics.
What breeds formed the Mi-Ki?
Like all purebred dogs, Mi-Kis were created from other breeds. They are not “designer dogs” that can be created with a dash of this and that, however. Mi-Kis have to be bred to other DNA-verified Mi-Kis with proven pedigrees to prove they are purebred Mi-Kis with the wonderful traits they are known for.
The Mi-Ki’s foundation breeds include the Shih Tzu, Maltese, Pomeranian, Pekingese, and maybe a dash of Bichon Frise/Cotton de Tulear, Papillon, and Yorkshire Terrier. Prior to the advent of DNA screening, we were told that the Mi-Ki was made up of the Maltese, Papillon, and Japanese Chin, but the Papillon and Japanese Chin breeds haven’t really shown up much in the breed profiles on DNA tests.
Mi-Kis have been a pure breed since the 1980s and were recognized in January of 2016 by the United Kennel Club in the Companion Group.
Mi-Ki Traits
Mi-Kis are intelligent sweet-natured small companions known for their intuitive calm demeanor, expressive ears, a “Gremlin” or “Ewok” look, and for being easy to travel with and a portable size from about 4-9 pounds.
These traits make this rare breed an excellent candidate for therapy work, medical alert service, as well as for living in apartments. The Mi-Ki is truly the sweetheart of the toy breeds.
Mi-Kis come in two coat types – the more common hypoallergenic long-coat style, and the smooth-face variety. The smooth-face Mi-Ki has a demi-long coat that does shed. We mostly breed long-coat Mi-Kis and occasionally have the smooth-face variety. Less than 25% of all AMRA-registered Mi-Kis are smooth-face. The International Mi-Ki Registry Association does not recognize the smooth-face Mi-Ki.
Regardless of what Mi-Ki you choose, you will agree that this is a fantastic breed and will likely want more than one! We have many repeat clients.
