Brian (On Trial 15/7/13)

Brian is a cuddly, male, Maltese x Shih Tzu, 1 to 2 years old. He is friendly and gentle with children and enjoys cuddles and lap time. He lets the children play dress ups with him and dance with him and is just happy for all the love and attention. My children think he's wonderful.

Brian is a quiet dog (not a barker) although he will bark at cats. He is in good health and has a lot of years to enjoy with the lucky person or family who adopt him.

He enjoys going inside and outside during the day but prefers to be inside. He needs to be inside after dark and to sleep inside. He is fully house trained and walks well on a lead. As Brian has not been in contact with other dogs, I am unsure what his behaviour is like with them. I think if he were to live with another dog it should be another small one like him.

Brian has a non-shedding coat so he will need brushing (every two days), bathing (every few weeks) and clipping (every 4 to 8 weeks) to keep him comfortable and beautiful. Maltese x are a very affectionate and cuddly breed. Their sole purpose in life is to love their owners!

Brian is looking for a warm and friendly home where he can share a happy life.
