You are right - so much to learn with the malteses. I thought at first that they were similar till I got mine. Grooming is a lot different and then there is not one topknot to deal with, but two (and they are smaller). I got mine from Glynette and think its line was close to Joyce's too. But hard to remember, since it was so long ago. The hardest part was keeping it from staining with the tearing of the eye. I use vasaline back then and some powder. I also kept an eye out for any stray hairs to make sure they did not get in the eyes. Now there are all kinds of products to help.
I love showing puppies! They are a lot of fun - not so much stress. Looks like you will enjoy the trip/show.
