Yes, maltese are calm but they are also playful and love to play with other dogs. My maltese loves playing with my yorkies. So yes they are playful and get along with yorkies.
For the eyes, to keep the tear staining down, I wipe under the eyes with a wet wash rag and then I put cornstarch under the eyes, being careful not to ever get it in the eyes. The cornstarch will keep the area dry which is also good for bacteria since bacteria grows in moist places. It also keeps it clean and nice and white. There are so many products out there that they have to keep under their eyes clean and they also have home remedies such as the cornstarch. I have heard using polident on the tear stains works wonders, I have not tried it yet.
They are really great dogs to have, I love the breed!! |
