Maltese Terrier Mix - Ellsworth

by Michele T.
(Maryland)

Blue Eyed Boy

Well, I've only had Ellsworth for about 6 weeks but I totally adore him. He's a rescue, so I don't know much about his past except he was a stray. The vet said he's a Maltese Terrier mix and about 18 months old.

He has several unique characteristics, the coolest being his one blue eye. He also alternates twirling around like a maniac with jumping extremely high while howling. But my favorite characteristic is his loving personality. He wakes me up every morning by kissing my face, while blocking my other dogs from greeting me. Did I mention he's a jealous one!!!

I named him after my grandfather because they have the same sweet, kind-hearted disposition. I was initially supposed to foster Ellsworth, but I knew from the moment we kissed we would be inseparable. Call me a Foster Failure but that's OK with me.

Barking?
by: Robin

Just wondering if you could give some input into how often this mix barks. Our daughter (16) is begging for one and we don't know much about it.
Maltese/Rat Terrier mix.
Thanks so much,

Adorable
by: Sue

We have a rat terrier maltese mix that looks similar. She has a lot of the characteristics of Ellsworth especially keeping our other dogs from joining her in our lap (but not in a bad way), she just wants all of the attention. I have never have a longer haired dog so it was a learning experience keeping her white coat clean. But she is a character, like Ellsworth, and a joy to own. Her name is Tracie. Best of luck with Ellsworth.

Blue Eyed Lovies
by: Naomi

Ellsworth is super cute and seems so happy. That blue eye makes him one special little puppy. We have a little Maltese boy who has 2 blue eyes. Although many breeder snobs, from what I have read, claim this is a genetic defect that could result in blindness or hearing loss and is a look frowned upon... well, they are just missing out on something special. Not to mention, the blue eyes are merely a genetic deviation and they can have perfectly healthy and happy lives.
I hope there are years and years of puppy kisses in your future.

What a beautiful pup! Its great that his past never broke his spirit! Same happened with my little maltese/chihuahua. Rescue dogs are extra loving, and it feels great to give them a second chance in life and let them know how amazing it feels to be with a family that loves them. Take care of him, he's a special and beautiful one!
