The weight of the hair would keep them down, but Molly would be darling either way.

Her ears had a shade of apricot (lemon) on them which has faded. I assume because she loves outside in the sun. Do you think it will come back during winter? It doesn't matter to me either way because she is such a joy. I'm afraid she has me wrapped around her little paw

My husband was totally against getting a dog at first and now he calls her Daddy's girl and he comes home for lunch to see her. LOL

Maltese puppies often have a little lemon which fades as they get older.

Oh that is so sweet! I just love how men have such a soft spot for their furbabies!

I think Molly is very cute, her eyes are pretty!

**kathym** · 08-29-2010, 07:24 PM

Molly is adorable. When she is older her ears will drop if you look at my siggy of Baci when he was a puppy his ears were up they eventually dropped

She is darling.

I'm pretty sure she is not albino, though, which is a good thing because albinos require a bit more care in protecting them from light. It looks like she is just really lacking pigment, probably due to poor genetics. I am not 100% certain, but I think it would be wise to protect her somewhat from the sun so she doesn't get sunburned on her nose. Maybe your vet could suggest whether or not she will need any special sun protection?

Hey everyone, my little Clara also has the pink features and dark green eyes. I got her from a family who were too busy with their 4 children, and they couldn't take care of her like they wanted. They told me she's a maltipoo, if that is true, she has more maltese than poodle in her blood! I got her a month and a half before her 1st birthday, and she turns 2 at the end of this month. I have never seen another dog that has the same features, so I was shocked when I stumbled upon this thread! Here are a couple pictures of my Clara!!
