The Mal-Shih is a tiny, adorable mixture between the Maltese and the Shih Tzu. Known for its squished little teddy bear face, the Mal-Shih is an affectionate and devoted breed. Sweet and loving towards humans, these dogs are perfect for seniors and children, as well as families with limited yard space. Though very energetic, the tiny 6-12-pound Mal-Shih can run circles around an apartment or a nice local dog park to get the exercise it needs much easier than a large breed.
