Maltese Shi Tzu Puppies - Rocco

Rocco cuddles his pig like a sibling only minutes after coming home.
My Maltese Shi Tzu puppy Rocco is a new addition to our home, he is just 7 weeks old. He had a bit of a rough start, when I went to pick him up he was on his own out in the garage. Rocco was put into my arms shaking from both the cold and fear. He clung to me immediately, my gentle stroking calmed his shakes. Rocco sat on my lap for the drive home. The first day he just slept on my knee or sat in his basket.
Three days later and he is the perfect little man (I knew he was) Rocco is no longer timid, and has the best temperament of any little dog I have met.
He is extremely playful at times, but calm and cuddly when you need/want him to be. Rocco is also extremely smart, he already has his poo place picked outside and will only poo in that area, at 7 weeks this was a shock to me.
I love this little Maltese cross Shih Tzu man I have taken into my home and I couldn't imagine having any other breed.
