Note:If you have this breed, or know
anyone who does, please send a good profile photograph of the Dog (without humans in the
background). We shall publish it on this page with credits. You can send it either by
e-mail or post.
| This was once called the Maltese Terrier. It does not shed its hair and
develops a long luxurios coat. This creates a matting problem especially when the puppy
coat changes to adult hair when it is 8 months of age. Daily grooming is compulsory. The
breed is very good with children. It was probably brought by Phoenician traders to
Malta 2000 yrs ago, but the present days Maltese has miniature Spaniels and Miniature
Poodles in its blood. It weighs 2-3 kgs and is about 20-25 cms tall. |
