Maltese Dogs are charming family pets, equally enjoying indoor and outdoor activities with their family. Belonging to the toy group dogs, Malteses are compact, but hardy. They are vigorous little dogs, who preserve a puppy's attitude and zest even when they grow older.

The Maltese's coat is single, which means that it has no undercoat. Curly or wavy coat is undesirable in Malteses. The hair should be approximately 8 inches long. The Maltese's body is relatively long with a level top line. According to the standard, the Maltese should weigh from 4 to 6 pounds. The Maltese stands 10 inches in height.

Dark and round eyes have a playful and alert expression. Ears are drop and rather low-set. The muzzle is of medium length, and the head is in proportion to the body.

Malteses - Puppies - Raising a Puppy

Malteses should be sold only when they reach the age of 12 weeks. By this time, all necessary shots should have been done and the veterinary checkup should have stated that the Maltese puppy is absolutely healthy.

At the very first stage of puppy ownership, you may experience some problems understanding your puppy's behavior (the puppy introduced to its new home will be anxious and challenging). At a later point, you will discover that you are finding pleasure in raising a pup.

You will need to buy a crate, a leash and collar, food and water bowls to teach your Maltese some golden rules of doggy behavior. It is a mistake to introduce your own understanding of the puppy's diet, if the pup got used to some definite kind of diet at the breeder's home. Consulting your breeder and keeping in line with his recommendations at this point is essential.

The Maltese puppy will need toys to play with. If you are not inclined to sacrifice one or two pairs of shoes to your puppy's desire to chew, buy some chewies, which Malteses of all ages adore.
