Dog breeds: Maltese
Back to list of breeds
The
Maltese is a toy breed that originated in Malta. This is an ancient
breed that can be traced back to 1500 B.C. Today this is a popular
breed for dog shows and families, as well as companions for the
elderly. They are often found of the laps of their owners. The Maltese
can be described at times as a 'yappy' dog and are known for alerting
their owners to all sorts of sounds. Starting training at a young
age is recommended.
The Maltese usually stands about 10 inches tall and weighs between
4 and 6 pounds. They have a long, silky white coat that may have
faint lemon markings. This is a friendly dog, but they do not always
get along well with kids or other pets. They are a dog bred for
royalty and they know it. Be firm but fair when training a Maltese.
