Maltese Husky Mix - Beefie

I'm 5 wks old, and I JUST WOKE UP!
Kobe Beefie is my puppy's full name. He is a Maltese Husky mix. Maltese have been my dream dog; I had always wanted one, but ever since this I laid eyes on Beefie, I do not want any dog except for him.
Beefie encompasses the friendly, lovable, and gentle trait of a Husky and the appealing, not-as-hyper, and "lap-dog" nature of a Maltese. Beefie will lie quietly for long periods, either in my arms, under the bed, or on the couch. He falls asleep in a flash.
Beefie is a show-stopper, everywhere we go we get flocked by people asking if they can take pictures of/with him... although Beefie doesn't like the attention as much as I do. HEHE
One of Beefie's best characteristics is his soft FLUFFY coat. Man is it one of a kind! It has the glorious flow and downy of the Maltese coat, and the beautiful color and thickness of the Husky coat.
We are still trying to potty train him. He seems to have mastered pooing on the peepee pad, but with peeing, he always aims at the corner of the pad. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Beefie's favorite trick (or mainly mines) is the "Play Dead" trick. He is such a soldier. Not one word BANG can make Beefie fall. With my finger pointed about 5 inches away from his body, I have to say ~3-5 bangs, with the last BANG shaking the walls of the rooms before he does his belly flop. Haha. He likes that trick so much that when I say other commands, he automatically dives to the floor with his legs up in the air, ready for a treat as if he mastered the PLAY DEAD trick.
I am having so much fun with Beefie. He lightens up my day like no other; Truly a blessing in my life.
Beefie's brother, PO, is also featured on this website! He is also such a cutie! Check him out!
