Dominic says hello! - Maltese Dogs Forum : Spoiled Maltese Forums

**Dominic** · 12-13-2012, 12:22 PM

Good morning,

My name is Beatriz and I'm a proud mommy of Dominic. I have been reading Spoiled Maltese since October, 17th - the day my husband got me my little bundle of joy. You guys are so great, I've learned so much reading obsessively through the entire site and honestly without it I don't know how I would've done.

So a little bit about Dom
He was 2lb when we first got him and last week on his last puppy vaccines appointment he hit the 4,2lb! He is full of life and energy, and his behavior is just like the typical Maltese - mischievous, lovely, lots of kisses and snuggles, chewing on anything he can get his mouth on. He also think he is a parrot and my shoulder is his way to go out, sitting on my chest is his way to rest up. He is good on "getting out of the kitchen" while we are cooking and knows how to sit in front of his placemat to wait for his food.

Dom sleeps in bed with us and to my surprise that was my husband's idea, he adores Dominic as much as I do and it's already talking about getting him a sister in a year or so. Dom also goes to work with me and has a special place all setup for him.

His food was a little bit of a challenge. He first came to us eating Royal Canine and I didn't like the corn and beets on it plus I want to feed Dom the best food available. I then look for Orijen which he loved it! Well, he loved it for 10 days... then stop eating completely. I got him Acana, no luck at all. I gave him back the Royal Canine and he ate like it was a juicy burger. But I wasn't falling for that. After lots of reading I gave the raw food a try and choose Small Batches, a company here in the Bay Area and that was the best thing I could have ever done. He loves his food and his hair looks so good, it's growing fast and his energy level is incredible.

Well I ended writing a lot, didn't I?
