You're putting your hand in the wrong place.
A teacup Maltese is a smaller Maltese. The term "teacup" is a marketing tool referring to really small, and often unhealthy, dogs. "Teacup" puppies are often badly-bred puppies, with no concerns to their health or temperament - they are only bred to produce the smallest-sized puppies possible. No responsible breeder will breed or even sell a very small or unhealthy puppy.
To say "hurry up" in Maltese, you can say "Irgħat!"
moan down.
yes, they grow up--to be 5-8lb--unless they are a teacup Maltese (then they will be 3-4lbs). Maltese also mellow down as they grow up. (like any dog) :)
Breeders are careful not to over breed their Maltese, because when they are over bred they grow up to have severe health problems. Someone who breeds Maltese has to know quite a lot about them and usually only breeds Maltese. Breeders of Maltese also usually don't sell their dogs to brokers (pet stores), so pet boutiques don't always have them. Maltese are bred, but they aren't the most commonly bred dog you will find--some more commonly bred dogs are yorkies and mini poodles.
Yes, some species of owls, such as the great horned owl, are capable of picking up small dogs that weigh up to a few pounds.
It depends how much the parents were. My cousin has a Maltese that is 6lbs but mine is only 4lbs. My grandma also has a Maltese that is 9lbs so it really depends. The biggest weight i know of in a Maltese is 11lbs- my aunt who feeds it table desert. (incase you haven't noticed, my family loves malteses!!! they are great family pets) I own a Maltese that weighs 14 pounds. He's not fat, just HUGE for a Maltese. He's more the size of a Bichon Frise but is in fact a pure breed Maltese.
Lyndon Johnson had a pair of dogs named Him and Her. There was a flap in press about his pulling on their ears, maybe picking them up by their ears.
Humans have fingers and thumbs, useful for picking things up, where as cats and dogs only have pads.
all that happens is that you keep picking it up
yes but they have people hair so you wont mind picking it up;)i have a 2 silkys and they shed a lot in the summer
Yes they can. It is proven that dogs have 10x noises than we do. Also in some cases dogs can sense when a big storm is coming or if some one is sick or depressed they are really good about picking up emotions/actions/smells
