My 2 yr old Maltese, Bailey, just came to live with me a week ago. I purchased her from a breeder and I'm her first full-time human. She was spayed 2 weeks ago and been to spay vet (I also got her teeth cleaned under anesthetic) and my vet. She is calm, but just getting used to being handled daily. I want her to stay calm. I am retired, but still work 6 to 15 hours a MONTH. We are just getting to know each other and she is socialized with dogs, but humans not so much. She's had a bath since spaying, but her eyes and face need to be worked on. I'm just going for a puppy cut. She is great with me touching her feet. She has been groomed by her breeder, but not regularly. She's very sensitive to loud sounds. I'm trying to minimize trauma, so would like to get her groomed in multiple short sessions at first.
