These hybrid dogs are recognized by the
American Canine Hybrid Club
and can be registered on their website.
They are one of the relatively unknown Maltese mixes,
but are becoming more popular because of their loyalty and courageousness.
These dogs take on the temperament of both Pekingese and Maltese. They are loyal and protective little dogs.
Some are very opinionated; which may make them difficult to train. You may also find them difficult to housebreak,
as with any smaller dog.
They are great dogs for apartment life, as they usually aren't that active indoors.
These dogs do fine with children and other dogs as long as they are properly socialized when they are puppies.
Most people find them to have a courageous and affectionate personality.
If you already have a Maltese Pekingese mix or know someone that does, check out these unique gifts for dog lovers below.
This Maltese mix can come in a wide variety of colors, but are usually gold and white or black and white. Some are even pure white.
Hair is usually thick, long and straight. Therefore, they need daily combing and brushings.
Some shed lightly, while others do not shed at all and are hypoallergenic dogs.
Full grown Pek-A-Tese can weigh anywhere from 7-12lbs, which is a few pounds heavier than a purebred Maltese.
If so, your "designer dog" could be famous! Please tell us all about your Maltese mix and we'll put it on our website. What kind of personality does s(he) have? What makes him/her so special? Let other Maltese Maniacs know what to expect from a Pek-A-Tese.
