Male Maltese Chihuahua - Mintie

Mintie at 5 months
My male Maltese Chihuahua Minitie is nearly six months old. He is tireless and loves to play. He will retrieve a tennis ball all day if you had the time and patience! He is very clever with a soccer sized rubber ball and would make a good goalie!
He was fairly easy to toilet train thanks to my husband's persistance but will still sneak into the garage on a wet day rather than go out in the rain.
My Malchi is very affectionate and hates being left on his own.
His ears still stick up like batman and hope they will drop in time. He has very sensitive hearing which leads to his only bad point which is his barking. He barks at every little noise and hope that once his ears drop his hearing won't be as sensitive.
