The final decision has been made to sell Lizzie. If anyone knows of a good home for her, please contact me. These are her "specs:"

Female, 10 months old
AKC Registered
Spayed
Microchipped
Up to date on shots
Housetrained
Obedience trained

$750

She will not be shipped.

And please...no bashing/hateful remarks this time. It's a final decision no longer up for discussion. I post here simply because it's a good resource to find her a great home.

Ok, we have one little guy and he is pad trained and we like that idea and we were looking into the possibility of getting him a buddy in the near future....

Does she sleep in a crate at night...does she sleep through the night

if we wanted to look into this more deeply we would either have to travel to NC or have her shipped....

First off, she will not be shipped anywhere. I guess I should have put that in my first post. I'll fix that.

She sleeps in her playpen on top of her Nuzzle Nest. She has been sleeping thru the night for several months. We have tried to get her to sleep with us, but she just can't seem to sit still. lol

Oh, I think she'd love to be in a home with another Malt since she is so high energy. I bet she could be trained to the pad, especially if she sees him using it...

We first trained her on pads, but she would have nothing to do with it. She actually WANTED to go outside.

And I agree -- she would be so happy in a home with another malt to keep her entertained.

Our little guy sleeps through the night and he is in his crate during the day for now, he is not ready to have the entire house to himself yet, he is still having accidents and he was ripping his pad. W

Our little guy sleeps through the night in a crate, he is not able to get comfortable on the bed either...we think eventually he will have his own bed on the side of ours and he will sleep there. During the day we work so he is in his crate. He is not ready to have the entire house to himself yet, he is still having accidents and he was ripping his pad. We were considering a partner for him and yes maybe he would be able to teach the other Malt to go to the pad, we are trying a wizdog for him next....
I understand from past postings that you are feeling that you little one is high energy. Have you had a problem keeping up with her and does she have a calmer side and playful or are you having issues with her?

I know I have a lot of questions, but this is something we were considering and I want to make sure it would be the right environment for her and for our Oscar

Lizzie sounds a lot like Lexi. Lexi loves having Nikki around to play with. I think you would love having two of them. I've only had Nikki for 2 weeks but it seems longer. I love having both of them.

I've never trained a dog to use pads so I can't give you any personaly experience but I think you could probably retrain her to go on the pad. You might have problems at first but I think if you keep up with it I think it is possible.

One thing that I think would help in Lizzie's adjustment wherever she ends up and that is to have her crate, nuzzle nest, playpen, etc. in her new home. I think she would feel quite safe having her familiar items around her. Perhaps she could sleep as she does now in the pen with the nuzzle nest.

Yep that what I did with my first puppy too wen I had to give her up. I sent her with everything food, toys, crate and my shirt as well so she could adjust. The only issues was she would stop dead in her tracks when going in the living room of the new home. The lady I gave her too could not figer out why she would not walk there. Then I figered out it was that I had all carpet in my aprtment and missy never walked on hard wood floor before.
So she had to train her to walk on the floor.

The crate is more for his safey at night and so he holds it all night which he is doing great with. Question what exactly is a Nuzzle Nest?

All of Lizzie's belongs will be going with her. That includes about a zillion toys, her nuzzle nest, etc. In fact, I just bought her another bag of Greenies today because she finished off the last one over the weekend. It felt weird buying something for a dog I'm trying to sell, but they keep her entertained.

And Lizzie is just a typical Maltese. I just can't keep up with her energy. Nothing is wrong with her. She does not have any behavioral issues -- she's just a high energy little spirit.

She sounds wonderful. If I could handle another I'd buy her. She and Kallie would love each other since they sound like clones of each other. ... oh.... I am dreaming out loud......

Ant Nay :

The only thing I am concerned about is that your little boy is not completely housebroken yet. And at 4 months old I suppose he is not neutered yet. Since he cannot be trusted yet, he is not going to be the one training Lizzie to go on piddle pads. I am afraid you will end up having 2 dogs you cannot trust in that area at least for a little while. Lizzie being in a new environment might regress on the beginning. And your boy not being neutered yet might start to mark his territory or try to

her. (I can't believe I am using that smily, but you all educated me about it

)
I don't want to discourage you, but it might be something to think about it.

I find it to be very nice to have 2 maltese puppies. They really do keep each other entertained and worn out. Both of mine are now a year old and have settled down quite a bit, but I worry how it'll be for Sadie when she goes off to live with my daughter. We're already thinking that we may have to share the pair. Going to a home with another maltese, and one that is young enough not to be territorial, might be a wonderful situation for all.
