Why does the Yorkiepoo lack its own unique scientific binomial name?

Answer

It is a crossbreed, not a formally recognized, stable breed.

The primary reason the Yorkiepoo does not possess a unique scientific binomial name (like *Genus species*) is due to its status as a hybrid cross between two distinct breeds. Formal zoological taxonomy requires a stable, recognized lineage, which is typical of established purebreds tracked over centuries. Since the Yorkiepoo is intentionally mixed, its genetic structure is inherently variable and lacks the standardization required for a separate entry. The common names used, such as Yorkiepoo or Yoodle, are marketing terms reflecting the cross but carry no formal scientific weight within official classification systems.
