Maltese

A Maltese is a dog who is gentle and fearless. This dog is a very cuddly and affectionate little pup. They love being with people so they are perfect family dogs, even with a home full of kids. The history of this dog is pretty interesting. The dog had many names before the main one, Maltese. Some names were known as,  the "Melitae Dog," "Ye Ancient Dogge of Malta," the "Roman Ladies Dog," "The Comforter," the "Spaniel Gentle," the "Bichon," the "Maltese Lion Dog," and the "Maltese Terrier."  This breed has a lot of hair and it can grow pretty  quick too. It's usually white and silky. In the past, they came in several other colors, but now they are mainly white. They are suited very well for apartment living and small houses because of their size. They are playful pups who love to be active. Photo by Dogtime

Aussies!

In this week's post, we are gonna talk about Australian Shepherds. These are one of the most beautiful looking dogs out there. These dogs actually originated in the Western US, not Australia. This was around the gold rush in the 1840s. These dogs are used to herd livestock, and they do this by nipping, barking and eyeing the flock. They are highly intelligent dogs who love to be active. They aren't the type of "sleep all day" dogs. This dog needs plenty of exercise such as walks, runs, trips to the dog park and any other active activity. Aussie's are great dogs for competitions. Because these dogs have such tough agility, they are able to jump high and catch things in the air. If they do not get enough exercise, they will tend to get agitated and bark a lot. This is why Aussies need to be active. They definitely do not belong in apartments. Having a pretty decent yard is ideal for them to run around and play in. To conclude, these dogs are fun-living pets that a...

This breed originated in Siberia hence the name, Siberian Husky. They grow to be pretty big, medium sized. they have a heavy coat of hair which is why they do well in the arctic cold.

The Lhasa Apso

Photo by Dogtime Today I want to talk about a foreign dog that I haven’t heard about yet. This breed is called the Lhasa Apso. They are originally from Tibet. They are highly regarded watch dogs in the palaces and monasteries of their homeland. They have extremely long hair so grooming is an essential. They are very family orientated and are there to protect. They are super independent and loyal which makes them perfect dogs. They do great in apartments. They are small enough for them and are quiet so it doesn't affect the neighbors. They're fairly healthy dogs too even though, of course they are prone to some issues too. They are prone to allergies such as food allergies, contact, bed fleas and other things. They enjoy playing outside so it's important to check for outdoor fleas since they have a lot of hair. They like to walk as long as their not too long. Photo by PetWave Overall, this dog is really fun and has a cool name. One important thing to note abou...
