I kept Shio the Maltese, haircut, puppy short because then you rub him and wouldn’t feel like there required to itch so much he didn’t like it long either. Long meant he be attacked by comb and bath often and wouldn’t get to play with other friend “dirt” he loved the that soft mud too but. We had enclose him away or he sniff anything in close approximately.
Birds, mice, and cats oh my were not permitted enter Shio territory.
How could anyone dislike Shio he had cute smile and charcoal eye appearance he was worthy snuggle and hug love. I found fastest way clean Shio was use Oregano herb bath seems oregano herb cleans up well and makes dirt come away faster. Makes him smell very good. I think if we had mint even better.
Feeding shio got harder though he very particular towards certain food, I try to get him eat vegetables, currently dislikes carrots, green beans if they are boiled, it they saute in butter or oil he likes them. Have to add some sort herb to it. He eat it no question. I learned as long main dish aka protein is taken care of I don’t have feed him vegetable part I have take care on my own. Wet food or fresh meat protein has made in certain way.
Shio is normally quiet and super protective, barks only when intruder: mailman, delivery person, service person shows up, neighbor drops by, or family member drops by too.
Shio usually trying catch up with nap activities…and have his sleep counted. If we take him for walk it can’t be on hot day or day where too cold and windy because we normally see another loose dog, Our close neighbor recently acquired a saint Bernard and border collie, one large and medium sized dog which I am sure if got out it would harm shio in seconds. But that besides the point he made point of his reasoning sending his dog to my dog. Which in conclusion made me feel Shio can’t go outside because awful neighbor.
My family likes stroke “Shio” when they are here, when My parents want to pet him they should understand there limitation of stroking him so much. I don’t even pet him so much only if wants it.
Shio is named after Salt, while originally he called Shiro that means white. he dislikes that name because to him that means Clean. He understands name meaning. He got dirty everyday when we called him Shiro so I called shio and he stopped and stayed white little bit dirty…it was quite funny day. He actually sat and let me shook his paw. he even did mass of tricks…so he saying I am very intelligent.
He plays soccer too and makes me think what else get him when we get toys that soccer ball I want to get him 9.99 other kind ball one you want to get for Maltese lights up is cat toy and has lights and makes noises stuff how come they don’t make for dogs they have retriever brand which make me feel only golden retriever dog is only dog toy manufactured for whole world what about small dog breed toy?
Maltese dogs are animals want to make for. They kind like cats sized what toys do I get for him that branches on intelligence I don’t like getting squeaker because he bored of it, Shio prefer blankets and pillows. versus beds I can’t get him like pet bed I tried one time and just tried destroy it because it didn’t keep him warm, hard to wash it and spilled his food.
