I think "wahtaboutchloe" was "barking up the wrong tree" when he or she tried to get YT posters mad about Maltese. But it's been fun to read. Would be interesting to take a count and find out how many of us who own Yorkies aslo own Maltese - looks like quite a few here - I do.
When people ask me the difference about the Yorkie and the Maltese, based on my experience with both - I fing that the Matlese really wants to please their owner / family so they will often tend to train more easily. Where as a Yorkie wants to be pleased

so can be quite the challange when it comes to training. But I LOVE my little Yorkie girl, Butterfly, anyway!
