Welcome to Royal T Mi-Kis

We have Mi-Ki 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, a microchip, and lots of things in an adoption kit. 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 verified 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. Before 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 been represented 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 of about 4-10 pounds.

These traits make this rare breed an excellent candidate for therapy work, medical alert service, and apartment living. 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 sheds. 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-faced. 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.

Lucas & Lucy Mi-Ki Dogs

Shirley A. has purchased two puppies from us – Lucas and Lucy. Repeat clients are the best! We are so glad that they are spreading Mi-Ki love wherever they travel in their Airstream RV!

Shirley says Lucas and Lucy are “the sweetest pups we’ve ever known.”

Lucy is a chocolate and white Mi-Ki out of Truffle and Baron. Lucas is a sable boy out of Moses and Evie.

Rocky the Mi-Ki (Zelda's brother)

Dear Mary, 

We wanted to let you know what an absolute joy our little Miki Rocky, now 9 months old, has been in our lives. He has such a sweet disposition and is friendly to everyone and other dogs. He loves to play, with us and other dogs but he also is so calm and able to sit on our laps when we read a book or the newspaper in the morning. He’s just the most loving little boy. Rocky is our third Miki and although we dearly loved both of our prior doggies who have passed on, we do have to say that Rocky being raised in your home environment has definitely made a difference. While our previous breeder, who is no longer doing breeding, gave us two precious doggies. we do notice the difference in having a puppy who was raised by you. They both were in a home with their mom and a sibling. Rocky having been around several other puppies, dogs, in a home environment, and around several people came to us just so confident. Even though you have the puppies for a short amount of time, those first few months are like the formative years for humans. One always has to deal with some accidents when you get a puppy but really it’s been quite easy. Rocky was fairly well trained in the first month and after a couple months there were no more accidents. He loves to go everywhere with us but he’s also confident enough to be fine staying home when we can’t take him. Mind you, we are retired so he doesn’t spend tons of time alone. We have a doggie door that he uses freely going in and out all day long and so enjoys his backyard. Everyone just loves him when they see him and he greets everyone with kisses. He doesn’t even bark when the doorbell rings he just runs to go give greetings. When anyone asks him where we got him we always recommend you highly even though we’re in California and you’re in Denver. When we get our next Miki, which may not be too far off as Rocky would really love a playmate, there’s no doubt that our new family member will come from Royal T Mi-Kis. We wish you and Bill all the best.
