A sibling for Tucker - Maltese? We are thinking about getting a little sibling for Tucker. I'd like a female this time around because I really love all the clothes you can get for little girls. We went and met an adorable baby Maltese yesterday. She won't be ready to go to a new home until mid to late February. Do any of you have Malteses? Do they tend to get along well with Yorkies? Tucker is 16 months old - is this a good time to increase our family size? Thanks a bunch, Julie |
We got Bella, our maltese, when Benji was about 1 year old. I was nervous and first at how he would adjust but they did great. Bella actually calmed Benji down a little bit. They play great together and loving having eachother around. I think the maltese and yorkie breed are great combined. |
I got my maltese when Miko was almost 3 yrs old and the maltese was 7 months old, and they did great!! :) It may take some time for your yorkie to adjust (weeks to a couple of months), but I'm pretty sure they will do great together. Maltese and yorkies complement each other very nicely. I love both of my babies!! |
I don't have a maltese, but they sure look beautifull and I heard they are very calm. |
I have 3 maltese and 4 yorkies and they have all gotten along splendidly!! I find that the maltese are extremely loving and loyal. If you like to be followed from room to room all day than this is the breed for you! |
One day I plan to buy a maltese too. In fact, I just joined a maltese forum last night ;) I've seen many people with both and they compliment each other well |
I have always wanted a maltese, they are so beautiful and calm, my girlfriend has one of each;) lucky girl:) good luck in your search:) |
I love maltese and plan on getting one to add to my crew in a year |
I have 6 yorkies and one Maltese,The Maltese was over a year old when we got her and she gets along great with all the others.And they do follow you room to room.(I have all 7 follow me room to room) My hubby says the are pathetic and could not do with out me!! |

Malteses My boyfriend had six Malteses and a Yorkie, and they got along fine. He still has three Malteses and they are quite docile, much more of a lap dog than a Yorkie, and less feisty and independent. In fact, I liked them so much - and I was not a dog person - that I would have liked one. I took care of them at my home whenever he was away..Instead he got me a Yorkie...I can't imagine life without the Yorkie now...but the Malteses are sweet-natured things. My Yorkie does not get along as well with his Malteses only because he is insanely jealous if I show them attention. When I am ignoring them he wants to play with them, and two of them (the third is a real Alpha Dog and gives him no time of day) would, except that he's frightened them by going after them when I held them. We're working on it - he's getting better! |
