Maltese Bichon Dog - Baxter

by Trish
(Wisconsin)

Baxter was a soft fur ball of a puppy. My Maltese Bichon dog is now two and he has wavvy hair. He is very active but then turns off like a light switch. I had a Vet tell me not to baby him so much so I do not have a lap dog. He is independent while he is active, but a snuggler when he is tired.

He gets hair mats even with daily brushing. I would like any secrets on how to reduce them or at home products to help get them out. Is he missing something in his diet? I feed him natural dog food.

I swear by natural dog food, he does not have tear stains anymore.

Baxter hates rain and loves the snow. He thinks he is a Black Lab or he may be possessed by our previous Lab. He does not go for little toys and love Golden Retrievers.

He is very social with people and dogs. He does not know what to think of ponies.

He is so very cute.

Baxter!
by: Lulu and LoLLy!

Hi Baxter, this is LuLu and LoLLy! We're 2 Maltese dogs. We hear you're having tangles even with daily brushing. We keep our hair short to avoid that -- we both have wavy hair and when it gets longer, even with daily brushing, we get tangled too! Two Paws Up! for regular haircuts, is what we say! Love, Your PaLs, LuLu and LoLLy! http://www.luluandlolly.com

Maltese/Bichon

I understand how you feel about Baxter. I have Patrick. He is 3 years old and is an amazing animal. He was extremely destructive as a puppy, to the point where I didn't know if I could keep him any longer, when suddenly like a light switch, he stopped. I never thought I would grow attached to a pet, but I am really hooked on Patrick. He is so handsome and the most mild mannered animal I have even seen. He lives to play. He plays hard and crashes like a kid when tired. He was tough to house break and occasionally has an accident but not often. He has a sensitive stomach and only eats food for dogs with sensitive digestive systems or he will get sick every few days. I am told it is not uncommon with this breed.
