I got my Maltichon when she was eight weeks old, I had her for about three months when I lost my father I named her Coconut but she is truly my little angel dog.
She is the sweetest and smartest dog that I have ever seen. By the time she was ten weeks old, granted I did not get her until 8 wks, She had already been taught to sit, speak, lay, roll over, high five, shake, play dead and do a little dance. She is sooo funny and loves to chill on her back whenever she goes to sleep.
She does not like it when you are sad and will lick your face off when you cry until you stop. She is definitely my pride and joy and when I lost my dad she was there for me at every turn and helped me to have the strength I needed to go on without him I would be upset and cry and turn around and she would just be there no sound like an angel. She has truly been a blessing to me and is a big clown and steals the show, show her a trick once and she gets it if you have something she wants she will do every trick she knows one after the other without being told to try and impress you to get her way. She has even tried this with my Bichon that I rescued too funny (he's not impressed lol)
She also wants to be a Mommy really bad and when she is in heat for a couple weeks she carries a squeaky toy around everywhere and whines and pretends it's her baby. It's cute but kinda sad hope this gives anyone interested an insight to the breed, ... now all I need are some puppies any volunteers :)?
