Steven Tyler Loves His Yorkie & Morkie

In a new interview with TIME Magazine, Aerosmith look toward man Steven Tyler gushed about his two dogs.

“I have a Yorkie and a Morkie… (Yorkie + Maltese = Morkie) One is a teacup I put in my pocket. And the incidental one I put in a sling over my shoulder, and I footrace around, and it’s the cutest effing thing on the planet.”

He went on to describe how he has turned to his dogs during rude (ruff?) times including of medication addiction.

“Dogs have a lot of love… They sleep fitted next to my neck,” he added.

The dogs have inter alia helped him stay clean and thence from the party scene. “I miss going out to a club, yacking it up. So I talk to my dogs.”

Wondering what the dogs’ names are? The Yorkie is named, “Butch Cassidy,” and the Morkie is named, “The Sundance Kid.” (maybe shortened to Sunny in reality?)

Steven didn’t intimate whether he is tempted to sing, “Walk this way” when he takes the dogs around the block, but I could see in like manner of those little guys inspiring him to throw about into, “Dude Looks Like a Lady.”
