My mother has a maltese and he is just the sweetest, well behaved little dog I have ever seen. He loves to play but knows when to chill out and he is not trained but if she says "no", he automatically stops whatever he is doing. He always curls up with her when she is on the couch and he loves people to death. When my mother grabs her car keys, he gets into his cage without her even having to say anything.
I would love to have a dog who acts that way [not to mention he is SO adorable and easy to keep groomed] but I don't want to get a maltese based on my mother's dog and mine be a dud.. like an arrogant personality, bad behavior, etc. Are all malteses sweet like my mother's dog, or did she just get lucky?
I enclosed a picture of a maltese in case you are not sure which dog I am referring to. http://www.dogwild.info/maltese.jpg
