Description
Dog Breed: Maltese / Chihuahua / Mixed (medium coat). Bert & Ernie - Tiny Duo, Giant Personalities Some friendships are just meant to last forever, and Bert and Ernie are proof of that. These two tiniest terriers found themselves out on the streets when their beloved family fell on hard times and had to move somewhere that didn't allow pups. Thankfully, a kind neighbor stepped in and kept them safe until they were shelter bound - and when we saw just how little they were, we knew we had to squeeze them in. And oh boy, are we glad we did. Bert and Ernie may be tiny, but their personalities are absolutely enormous. They like to puff themselves up and act like the toughest guys on the block, especially around bigger dogs, but it's mostly just a bit of terrier theatrics. Truthfully, these boys have spent some time looking out for themselves, so they come in a little sassy and a little suspicious - but once you're in their club, you're in. And when that happens, you'll discover just how funny, affectionate, and downright delightful these two really are. These boys are completely bonded and will not be separated for adoption. Trust us on this one - you don't just want Bert and Ernie. Two tiny dogs, double the personality, and a lifetime of laughter waiting for the lucky human who brings them home. If you want to be that lucky human, please fill out our application here.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Malchi is an adorable designer breed, a delightful cross between the Chihuahua and the Maltese. Originating from the desire to combine the best traits of both parent breeds, the Malchi typically inherits a small, compact size, generally weighing between 5-12 pounds. Their coats can vary, ranging from the long, silky hair of the Maltese to the shorter, smoother coat of the Chihuahua, often coming in shades of white, cream, black, or tan. Temperament-wise, Malchis are known for being affectionate, lively, and intelligent, making them wonderful companion dogs. They adapt well to apartment living due to their small stature and moderate exercise needs, and with proper socialization, can be suitable for families with older children. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of common small-breed health issues like dental problems, patellar luxation, and hypoglycemia, necessitating regular vet check-ups. Overall, the Malchi is a charming, devoted little dog perfect for those seeking a loving lap companion.
