She had the best personality ever. She was so easy to handle - she used to ask for permission to sit on the furniture -- she would look at the couch, look at me, make a tiny little whine noise, and wait for me to say 'Ok, up" before she jumped onto any furniture... and if I said "no" she would listen immediately and go lay on her doggie bed instead.

I remember my vet once told me two things.
If you stare at your dog and he/she looks away first, you have control.
If your dog literally walks on you, you do not have control.
My dog (the older of the two) will literally jump on my face, walk across me then lay down and kick at my head until he has my pillow. He also will stare long enough you look away first.
The maltese is more gentle, but she'd probably walk on us if she were tall enough to jump on anything. We have to lift her up, if not - she squeals like a deflating balloon (it's the most abnormal sound ever).
On the bright side, I've never had a boss that was so darn cute!
