Maltese Silky Terrier Mix - Coco

by Sonneteer
(Norfolk, VA)

Coco is a Maltese Silky terrier mix. Her fur is a bleached blond color, long, with black highlights on the tips. Her fur looks as if it has been frosted!

Coco is rambunctious. She runs through the house at breakneck speed and with abandon so much so that we have had to put pillows on either side of doorways and archways to prevent collisions. She is lovable, not cuddly, loves to lick and sit in our lap only when she wants to.

My Maltese Silky Terrier is trainable but determined to have her way. We're having a time trying to convince her of who is the "leader of the pack." She responds to praise but will not eat treats, so training is something of a challenge. We're still hoping to find a treat she will eat.

Coco loves to take walks and ride in the car in her crate.

She is the joy of our life. What an adventure we're having with her!

Picture please
by: Frankay

Coco sounds so much like my Buster. How old is she? Please let us see a picture of her. Keep being firm about training,use lots of praise and never strike. I use a my stern "teacher voice" to quietly scold. If I want to be sure he is listening and understanding, I tip his chin up and look directly in his eyes and say something like, "NO BITE" or "DOWN". The last resort is "time out". Putting him in his carrier in a closet or the garage for up to 5 minutes. He really knows he is in horrible trouble if we deny our company. If you are having trouble with "house training" and she is less then 8 mo. old, realize that she doesn't have the physical ability to be consistent yet.
