I love both maltese and yorkies, and I have both.
My maltese all have silky hair so the grooming is fairly easy, they don't matt up and are kept in a full coat. They also have very good black points and their hair stays a brilliant white all the time. But... they have tear staining and it drives me crazy. I try everything and put alot of time, effort and money into trying to keep the staining down to a minimum. It really bothers me because I can't stand seeing them all white and beautiful and then see red or orange stains under their eyes.:mad: I don't have to worry about that at all with my yorkies. So for me, the only downside to a maltese is the tear staining. Sometimes you get lucky and get a maltese that doesn't tear stain, but a high majority do get tear staining. I hate the tear staining, but I wouldn't trade my maltese for anything and I still love the breed!!
Can't wait to see more pictures of your gorgeous new little boy!! |
