Thanks everyone and who said I'm an ol softy?
Oh well - guilty as charged.
Tyler is a wonderful addition and I'm happy to say he is in good health and his teeth are all there with no bad ones. He has been neutered and is utd on all of his shots.
He is a definitely lap dog and wants to be anywhere one is available but it is becoming obvious that Mommy's lap is the lap of choice. He is such a sweetie.
Here are some photos. The first one is before his trip to the groomer and the last two are after. He doesn't appear to be very photogenic I'm afraid because he is so much cuter than these photos show.
The breeder is offering a maltese now. Anyone interested?
