About Malteses

The Maltese dog breed is a small, energetic companion dog that has been popular for centuries. Thought to have originated in the Mediterranean, the Maltese is characterized by its long, silky white coat and dark eyes. These little dogs usually weigh less than 10 pounds and do not require much exercise, making them a great choice for those with limited space or an active lifestyle. Despite their small size, these dogs are full of personality, very affectionate and love to play with both humans and other animals. The Maltese also remains surprisingly low-shedding despite its long white fur, so they often suit those looking for a small but practical family pet.

History

Throughout history, the Maltese has been a beloved companion to royalty. This toy breed with its long silky coat and adorable face is one of the oldest breeds around — records date back thousands of years to Ancient Greece, Rome, and Egypt although their exact origin remains shrouded in mystery. The most widely accepted theory is that these little dogs hailed from Malta – an island trading port in the Mediterranean Sea - before becoming popular across Europe during Queen Elizabeth I's & Queen Victoria’s reign.

Temperament

One of the most endearing characteristics of the Maltese breed is their temperament. Not only are these dogs very affectionate, but their cheerful and confident personalities make them excellent companions. They are known for having an affinity for making friends with everyone they meet, from humans to other animals. But what many find so captivating is that despite their playful nature, Maltese can remain gentle and sweet-tempered around even small children. Their intelligence and outgoing demeanour make them easy to train and a joy to be around.
