These puppies weight approximately 1 1/2
pounds now and are eating several times a
day regular dog food, Life's Abundance.
They are playing all the time and jump up
and down when I enter the room, they want to
play and get loving all the time. Their back
molars are still erupting so I soften their
food with warm water so it is easier for
them to eat. They have their first set
of shots now, as it has been two weeks since
they were weaned from their mom.

The puppies are now getting groomed by
having their feet trimmed, nails trimmed,
and faces combed and washed. I also start to
stack them on the grooming table and also
check their bites to make them fearless when
they have someone check their bite or touch
their face. Maltese allot of times
don't like to have their feet trimmed or
face touched so it is important to do these
things when they are young. I
try to keep the hair out of their eyes which
contributed to tear staining when it pokes
in their eyes.
