I have been a little afraid about the puppies, however all of your comments have made me feel a lot better. It would be a plus, but sounds crazy. im still trying to potty train him (which is quite challenging), but just within 1 week, he is now learning to "dump" on the potty mat. I'm worried. Both of these are small dog breeds, with Maltese adults typically weighing 2 to 8 pounds and Shih Tzu adults typically weighing 8 to 15 pounds. Our Malshi has never been wrong about the location of a lost toy. One last thing, my friend sold her pups for $600 each. Dr Penny Pincher (author) from Iowa, USA on December 23, 2013: lynne1, it is interesting to hear how other Malshis behave. Lola is about 7 lbs and Django is about 6. Small dogs can be great fun. Im looking for another Malshi because Juno is a little bored now that our Schnauzer is gone. He gets along very well with our other dogs and has quickly become a part of my family. And when we get back home, it's snooze time. I am not sure how she does it, maybe birds aren't afraid of her because she is so small and cute. Zach, Malshi's are a non-shedding breed! You can pick up a puppy at the breeder, or they can bring your puppy to you. Boy are those days gone! He is age 4 months in this photo. But he quickly transitioned to going outside. Looking for a small dog for company and the malshi seems the one for me do you know where I can get one. He's a hearty player with other dogs. This needs to stop. I LOVE MY MALSHI!!!!!!!!!!! "We found Braeden in an online ad; he was needing a home ASAP. And she weighs just about 10 pounds. He is so loving. I'm hoping to borrow $600 for a Malshi pup who the owner says is being box trained (I assume for night time or emergencies). They too are great but require more attention. She does have her resistent moments but those are mostly when she's pre-occupid with her toys, or chews. My dog hardly bark.

I have a 2 and a half malshi his name is loki the best dog i have ever had love him so much realky well behaved .is coat is thick and curly he is all black with just a little white on his next.any one intrested in mateing with him let me know thanks. I read Malshis should not weigh more than 10 lbs mine is 10 months old n weighs 15 lbs! It's taken a long time for Braeden to attach and trust. We replaced the silky who passed away with a 3 year old pure white male Malshi from a lovely lady who couldnt care for him any more and am amazed at how much he is like your Malshi. She is the best dog I have ever owned. Thanks. Sometimes she feels the need to completely empty her box of dog toys. He had Giardia, ear infections, underweight, and fleashe was perfect! Thanks for visiting. I can be training one of my cockers and Ella catches right on too. Training was very easy and he is smart. I have never had a puppy like this. Very lovable. How do we get rid of all these bad habits that have recently become present???? I am. Braeden is brushed in the morning and before bedtime. She knows when I pick up my purse, it's time to go, and waits for the leash. You just have to keep up with it. Everyone cracks up when they see him digging in his food or water dish when he wants them filled. How do I fix this? I too have a one year old Mal-shi. loves to play with his toys. please tell me its not just us that has this problem. Can you tell me where you got your Malshi? Loves to sleep with us at night. If anyone wants to have no more staining around their maltishi's eyes give them distilled water. Just today I went puppy shopping and could not make up my mind. I just got a malshi two months ago. We have found her sorting plastic clothes hangers into piles. We went on some short walks at first, but I quickly realized that she can walk amazingly far and amazingly fast considering her tiny size and short legs. Best money ever spent for so much enjoyment. I didn't know that the sorting behavior was a malshi trait. He is crate trained and he loves to go there to sleep or rest, and he also has dog beds all over the house. Maybe have your Malshi checked by a vet to make sure nothing is wrong My malshi has a little bloated belly and does Not eat alot. I sometimes need to get my Malshi shaved when her fur gets tangled and matted. We just got a Malshi puppy today! Braeden the tan and white Mal-Shi as a puppy at 10 weeks old, "His temperament is more like the Shih Tzu. I have three other dogs and she is definitely alpha, but very sweet. She was very independent and yes, schedule was her thing. I can see his features changing.. He loves to run and wrestle energetically with other Shi Tzus. We take him as much as we can or he goes to day camp and plays with his doggie buddies. No orange stain. He is the most adorable pup in the world. Barks at most every odd noise. My Mia a malshi has been a joy to have around these last 3 years. He'd never hurt another living thing. Excellent testimonial! The only difference is that my "Jack" does sometimes bark with an ear-piercing tone. She is big enough to play with our kids and other pets, and small enough to carry easily and sit on your lap. I like how your Malshi can figure out if she is going with your or not based on your clothing- very smart! My 8 month old little Malshi is a delight. Wouldn't trade My Kloe' for any other. It's his THIRD home. He is still very playful, territorial, and wants all my attention. My husband wakes up around 4-6 am for work and our dog usually comes to my husbands side of the bed ecstatically to go outside as we routinely do, and he goes outside. I can sit down fast enough so she can jump in my lap and lick my face. She does have a certain time she likes to go to bed. I cannot wait to bring the little guy home. I love these little ones. Dr Penny Pincher (author) from Iowa, USA on September 07, 2016: Ja, my Malshi's tummy sticks out a bit, but she is not fat. She was never underfoot like many dogs are, she did not jump on Laos. He has raised peacocks, chickens, sheep, dogs, cats, rabbits, and pigs. Loves people ,kids and other dogs. If i move he moves. She is VERY persistent when she wants something. If you look under the dark couch and don't see any dog toys, you need to get a flashlight. He is very hyper.I thought by getting him noodered he would calm down. He has long legs and weighs 18lbs. Also, this breed is hypoallergenic and they do not shed fur! That's why we let her greet everyone on the porch. Only a half a cup of crunchy blue with a smigen of chicken breast. She loves when company comes and she shows it by peeing! Easy to trainand will train you too. Enjoy your sweet, The description matches my malshi PERFECTLY! If she says there is a toy trapped under the bed, then there really is a toy trapped under the bed. Love him so much. In many ways, our Malsi is like a human toddler. She was healthy throughout her Life and lived it to the fullest. I have a malshi and you have described her to a T. The only difference is she is very protective of me. My daughter has two Malshis. She always watched over them. Recently a lady friend visited who has a serious disability and has much difficulty walking and after struggling past Lance and got to a divan to sit down with obvious pain he eyed her off for quite some time at a distance then picked up every one of his neat pile of toys nearby one by one and placed them in a pile at her feet over a dozen at least them nudged her to get her attention. She's so loving and playful and if we don't play with her she just barks. Only thing is she's a picky eater & I fall for it everyone w/her soulful dark eyes. I got the chance to adopt a mal-shi puppy a week ago. I have a maltese shitzu who is now 7 years old. If my 11 year old multeze shitzu male, breeds with a 3 year old multeze shitzu is this okay ? She definitely told me exactly what she wanted; whether it was good, water, or toys. Big and small..we have had our boy about 5.5 years. When we leave, she starts whining but when we get home she starts jumping up and down. So very clever, intelligent and a never ending source of amazement of how she memorises the name of her toys and where to find them virtually from the very moment that they're given to her. Best dog ever! So I have a Malshih male that is just over 3 years old, we got him when he was 7 weeks old, and he was doing good with potty training and we just moved to a much bigger house and he had zero accidents. These behaviors may sound kind of annoying, but they are really not. He was 16 weeks old and he had no name, no collar, low contact with other dogs or people. sit, stay, lie down, shake, fetch, leave it and drop it, IDCR = International Designer Canine Registry. When I get up he wines and wants me to come back. Looking for another Malshi! The best part is coming home and having her burst through the door with her tail vibrating in excitement, blinking her eyes and sticking her tongue out panting and trying to lick you when you pick her up. If there is anything that is a bit bothersome its the barking. But the out of control barking drives us insane!! I don't think I could handle more than one, though. Almost all of what you said describing your dog's traits are the same with mine. She is 10 lbs too , never has an accident never bites. Should I be concerned she is not a true Malshi mix? ", Bruno the Maltese / Shih Tzu cross (Mal-Shi) as an adult, Bella, a Mal-Shi (Maltese / Shih Tzu mix) at 13 weeks, weighing 3 pounds, "Sofie is a Mal-Shi (Maltese / Shi Tzu mix). Is this normal? Malshi puppies (Maltese x Shih-Tzu mix)Rocky weighing 2 pounds (seven weeks) and Muffy weighing four pounds (four months). He is starting to age though. So awesome to read these comments. Hope this helps get your Malshi back to normal! I recieved him from a friend of mine who breeds these "designer/hybrid" dogs. Matshis would be a great companion for any person with disabilities. Question: I mistakenly got my 8 months old Malshi shaved and now Im worried his old hair will not grow back. Even in her old age. She was a great companion to Mysore I am needs children. Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. We take road trips together. About 6weeks ago I bought a Malshi, I live in Victoria Australia .She has bought great joy to my life .So full of energy and just so cuddly ,she is just about toilet trained now so she is doing well .She sleeps in my bed of a night ,and put her tiny head on my shoulder when she goes to sleep .When she needs to go out side in the morning she lets me know by licking my face .She has bought such joy to my life ,and she is such a cuddly little thing .Her name is Princess ,she has really changed my life ,they are such great little dogs ,which I had got one sooner . I have a shih tzu Maltese mix he is 2 year old and has been noodered. We have a 7 year old Malshi rescue male. Dr Penny Pincher (author) from Iowa, USA on July 26, 2016: Janet, all of this reminds me of my Malshi happy to hear she has brought such happiness! Have never seen him do that, could he was attempting to cheer her up? He has no accidents during the day time and then we take him out at night as we normally do before we go to bed but I wake up to feed to newborn around 2 or 3am and find myself stepping in a large puddle of dog pee. If a cat is in her spot, she growls quietly. I have an auburn and black Shih Tzu named Lola. My one year old Malshi is such a loving little girl always looking to be picked up and cuddled. My Malshi always brings me a toy when I come home. We are first time dog owners so a young dog who is trained, already fixed, shots up to date, cuddly and friendly are important to us if the situation feels right. Ive only use of one arm and hand, a bad neck after spinal surgery 3 years ago, so im looking for a companion who maybe can help me? Dr Penny Pincher (author) from Iowa, USA on August 13, 2016: Deanna, you should get some really cute puppies- take lots of pics and video! Question: I get the impression that Malshi are not yippy, is that right? Then they can have a burst of energy for a short time. It is usually enjoyable to help her get her toys out from under furniture or help her arrange the other pets properly. She stays in bed for a little while, then goes to her own bed and has a carseat to ride in. She turned out to be exactly the right size; not too big and not too small. He even goes out before we go to sleep which is usually around 10 or 11 pm.
