Olga - " Malshi is a designer breed and are very good family and retiree buddies. I have crossed a 100% Shih-Tzu and my 100% Maltese. SUPER high quality lineage as you see all of my Maltese babies are always show perfect! This guy is very calm, chill, and a lover. Malshi has the hypoallergenic/non shed coat. You can groom his hair to any cut you prefer, some like the teddy bear cut with long boots, others grow out and have pig tails lol I could type for hours about my pups but if you have more questions, easy to just call or text me. 308-440-7883
