About the Maltichon
The Maltichon is a hybrid dog that is made up of a combination of two different purebreeds. It's a cross between the Bichon Frise and the Maltese. We've found the best method for understanding the characteristics of the Maltichon is to read both of its ancestors descriptions taking note of their temperaments, size and general look.
