Maltese Shih Tzu – Capalaba

My pups need a new mum and family. Their given names are on photos. I have more photos on request. They are desexed, vaccinated and beautiful companion pets for families, single or couples who would benefit having a loyal pet. They enjoy laying near where I sit or beside me on the lounge. They understand commands such as stay, come, wait, go outside, bedtime, go downstairs and follow. Each of them have their own personality, they adore people and love attention whether it is a morning or evening cuddle, going for a walk or swim. They know their names and come when called, they have routine for toilet before bed and feeding. They enjoy dry and wet food. They like Supercoat puppy, Leaps and bounds puppy and adult, have had some other brands. I make batches of meat, rice or pasta and vegetable meals and I freeze in large silicon Kmart ice cubes. They have had parasite care. I have all vet paperwork. They have collars. Price is negotiable however I will not tolerate low offers. This price has only covered vet costs. I move between Capalaba, Miles and Deepwater (north of Bundaberg). Meeting up can be arranged.

The Ultimate Maltese Shih Tzu Guide

Grooming

Grooming is not just about keeping your Maltese Shih Tzu looking good, but it’s also an important part of their overall health and well-being.

Origins

The Maltese Shih Tzu is a relatively new breed, only emerging in the last few decades. Both parents, the Maltese and the Shih Tzu, have been around for ages. The Maltese in an ancient breed that has long been valued for its petite size, bright white coat, and charming demeanour.

On the other hand, the Shih Tzu, known as the “lion dog,” has a documented history in China dating back to at least 1,000 BC, where it was a favoured pet in royal courts. Both breeds were cherished for their companionshop, a trait that shines even more prominently in the Maltese Shih Tzu mix.

Key Characteristics Of Maltese Shih Tzus

Are Maltese Shih Tzus Family-Friendly?

Malshis are great family dogs. The Maltese Shih Tzu mix is also known for its vivacious and spirited personality. They are lively dogs that bring joy and entertainment to any home.

Common Health Issues & Considerations

Maltese Shih Tzus may suffer from:

Eye anomalies

Brachycephalic airway syndrome

Hypothyroidism

Hip dysplasia

Nature / Temperament

Fun, loving, energetic, friendly, and active

Suitable Environment

Given their small size, Maltese Shih Tzus are well-suited for apartment living. They are active indoors and will be content without a yard as long as they receive their daily exercise.

Other Considerations

  1. They can make good watchdogs, and will generally only bark when strangers approach their home.
  2. Despite their small size, these dogs love a good romp and will appreciate any space available to play.

How can I take good care of my Maltese Shih Tzu?

Nutrition

A well-balanced diet is vital for a Maltese Shih Tzu’s overall health and well-being.

Some owners opt for commercial dog food, while others prefer a homemade diet. Whichever you choose, it’s crucial to ensure all their nutritional needs are met.

Maltese Shih Tzus can gain weight easily, so make sure you monitor their caloric intake carefully and limit treats to no more than 10% of their daily calories. Always provide fresh water at all times to keep them hydrated.

Grooming

The Maltese Shih Tzu, known for its luscious coat that’s a signature trait of both parent breeds, requires regular and careful grooming to maintain its appearance and health.

Due to the continuously growing hair, similar to human hair, the Maltese Shih Tzu requires daily brushing. This is to prevent the coat from tangling or matting and to remove any dirt or loose hair. Brushing also helps distribute the coat’s natural oils, giving it a healthy sheen.

 

Exercise

Malshis enjoy activities like hide and seek, fetch, or even agility exercises, albeit at a less strenuous level compared to larger breeds.

While they do need their exercise, care must be taken not to overexert them. Their small size means they can become exhausted or overheated if they engage in too much activity at once. Always keep an eye on their comfort levels during play or exercise.

Training

While the Maltese Shih Tzu is a very intelligent breed, they have a tendency to be stubborn, which can make training a challenge. However, with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement methods, you can successfully train your Maltese Shih Tzu.

It’s essential to start training and socialization from a young age to grow into well-adjusted adults. House training, leash training, and basic commands like ‘sit,’ ‘stay,’ and ‘come’ are vital.

This is basic information, and it should not be used to make adoption or purchasing decisions. Be sure to consult an expert if you’d like to learn about the breed’s care and requirements.

Most Asked Maltese Shih Tzu Questions

These dogs are a mixed breed, so each one is unique. Normally, they have markings around their eyes as well as on the body and ears.

Their coat comes in a variety of colours including white, brown, red, silver, and black. Generally, their coat is long and silky.

No, they don’t. But while they are low shedders, they still need daily grooming to keep their coats free of mats.

The average price of a Maltese Shih Tzu for sale typically costs between AUD $1500 and $4,000 depending on the breeder.
