Maltese/ Mal-shi Puppies!: Our new puppies have arrived! 1 girl & 3 boys, affectionately nick named: Dallas, Dexter, Dolly & Dusty. Born Feb, 23.

Getting acquainted.

- We have raised and enjoyed having Maltese as a part of our family for close to 20 years now. But Pretty Dilly, the mother of this litter, is the first Mal-shi we've had the privilege raising and enjoying in our home. She was selected for her particularly sweet temperament and adorable markings. The owner of Dilly's parents, whom we know and respect, carefully selected their dogs for their good blood lines. A "Mal-shi" is a cross between a purebred Maltese and a purebred Shih-tzu. She has been such a joy and terrific pet.

- Our Little Diddles is an AKC registered pure bred Maltese. He has tons of personality and is loads of fun. With the combination of Dilly & Diddles, each pup they have is 75% Maltese, 25% Shih-tzu. As Dilly weighs under 9 lbs. and Diddles weighs almost 5, we expect their pups to come close to weighing somewhere around 6 to 8 lbs.

- These type of dogs are known for their very happy and playful personality which offers lots of entertainment and fun. And just as true, is their ability to be quite comforting as they gently and lovingly crawl up in your lap to sweetly rest. They are great little companions that love to be where you are.

- While rather small, they have proven to be very intelligent and quite capable of being trained. For an example, Dilly and Diddles know at the clap of my hands it's time to go outside to do their chores. Also boundaries they do not cross have been clarified that keep them out from under foot while I'm working in the kitchen. True training takes a certain measure of time. With consistent coaching, along with their heart to please their master, you are bound to enjoy rewarding results.

- With their beautiful, long and lustrous coat (with the option to clip it), this breed is noted for NOT shedding! For this reason, people who struggle with allergies often will choose this type of pet to enjoy. And, of course, this advantage keeps your home free from the necessary clean up from a breed that regularly sheds.

- At eight weeks old (April 19th.) the puppies are ready to go to their new home. By then they will have received plenty of tender, loving care, along with their first shots and worm prevention. It is our goal to provide enthusiastic, new pet owners with a happy, healthy puppy. Should ever the health of any of our puppies come into question it will not be sold until it is clearly in good health.

- Upon the day the new owners receive their pup, they're have up to 60 hours to take their puppy to the vet of their choice to verify the good health of the pup. If your puppy does not clear a puppy wellness check from a veterinarian we will allow you to return the puppy to us for a full refund minus $100. Please include a document from a certified veterinarian verifying the puppy’s illness to receive the refund.

-Within the first year of the pup's life should there develop a genetic defect which would greatly reduce quality or quantity of life, and with written verification by a professional veterinarian to be hereditary, we will refund you half the price of the puppy and allow you to keep the puppy. This is the full extent of the health guarantee we offer.

The pups will be up to visitors by the age of 4 weeks (Mar. 22nd). With each week that passes, their adorable features are enhanced. On a first come, first serve basis, pups may be reserved only upon receiving a deposit of $350.00. The pups will be selling for $700.00.
