THe maltichon is a wonderful mix of both worlds. It posesses the kind and playful temperment of the maltese with the wonderfully wavy and non shedding hair of the bichon. It is smaller in size than an average bichon frise, weighing in at 8 to 10 pounds.
If you're having problems training your dog or getting control, you should read our review of DogProblems.com. Adam will do whatever it takes to help you whip your dog into shape. I've used them to help with my Great Dane as well as help friends train their dogs. It's the first place I go to help answer users Questions. Many training issues are too extensive to answer in this forum, which is why I refer a lot of the load to his site.
Update: I've been using and recommending DogProblems for three years now. I, as well as my users, value the techniques we've learned. I get weekly emails from users who have become better owners from the information they received.

Fonzie
Color:
white
Description:
Fonzie is a rescue doggie I have had for a little over a year. He was thin, shaved, and looked like a fugitive. I brought him home, and immediately, he never tinkled, etc. in the house. I have spoiled him. He sleeps with me, goes with me in the car, if it's not too hot outside. I take him o walks, he gets regularly groomed. The previous owner did not take care of his teeth, and he was missing 4. Four more had to be pulled due to infection that was present when I rescued him. He's so lovable, and darling, and sweet and perfect. He never even barks! He has the run of the house, and is spoiled a LOT, to make up for what he probably missed. He's adorable!

Gracie
Color:
White
Description:
Gracie has been a joy but a mischevious little one. Doesn't like the potty training one bit and if you turn your head she will go on the floor. I love her to pieces and figure that she will get it soon! She has 2 sister kitties, Callie and Chloe who are not sure they want her around yet. :) Gracie just had a human baby born a week ago but has to go to Iowa to see him. Not quite sure when that will be yet! I wish I could get another Maltichon for her 2 play with but there is a 3 animal limit where I live. One day tho......

Name:
Sophie
Color:
white with some beige
Description:
I just got my Sophie 16 days ago and we love her to bits! She's a very lovable, smart dog. She was born Nov 14/09, so she's just over 14 wks old. She mostly always goes outside to do her business and only had a couple accidents in the house and they were all by the front door so she knew where she needed to go just not quite sure how to tell us yet. She loves to play with her teddy and with my 5 yr old daughter. In the mornings, she jumps on her big and licks her face to wake her up, my daughter no longer wakes up grouchy. My hubby who wasn't initially sure about getting a dog has fallen for her, who can blame him? My only thing is though is that to me she really doesn't look like other maltichon's I've seen. The lady I got her from had the mom which is a 12 lb pure breed bichon (has papers) and her friend's dog was the dad which is a 6lb maltese. I have no reason to believe she would lie but I wonder if the maltese has something else in him. There were 6 pups born, 3 with curly hair, 3 with straight hair. Sophie has straight hair (although it goes wavy when wet) and she currently weighs about 41/2 lbs. I would love any comments/thoughts on whether she looks like a maltichon. Also, she does shed a bit right now but they could be stress or the fact that she now goes outside and its cold here so maybe getting a thicker coat?? Comments??

We got Chalrie when she was 2 months old. She is all white. She has been a very loving dog and loves to be held. She is more Maltese then her mate, Charlie. She has had 11 puppies in 2 litters and we will have her fixed when the current puppies are gone. It is to much on her having so many so young. We did not plan it, but it happened. She follows me inside all othe time, but enjoys running outside and playing.

Charlie
Color:
White with brown spots
Description:
I got Charlie when he was 7 months old free from a vet. His mother was having another litter and they had sold all but him for $300. He is mainly white, with brown spots on his ears, back and tail. He has been a very lovong dog. He follows me around everywhere I go. When I work outside, he is close by waching me. He follows me from room to room inside. He likes to sleep in the corner of the bedroom. He is freindly with vistors and everyone loves him.
