I have Yorkies and a Maltese. They do great together. My Malt is wonderful. She seems to be so much more loving than the Yorkies, or maybe she is just more expressive about showing it.
She always makes me laugh - even on those horrible days.
I keep mine in a short cut cause I do not want to deal with the long hair. So, it is easy to care for now. I have not noticed any shedding with mine, either.
She loves to play and have fun but she is also very content to sleep on my lap. She was much easier to potty train than the Yorkies.
I love her and am very glad I got her!!!
