About the Maltese

The Maltese is one of the oldest toy breeds, known for a long, silky white coat and dark, round eyes. They were bred to be companions, and it shows: a Maltese wants to be wherever you are. Maltese are one of our most popular breeds, and it is easy to see why once you hold one.

  • Size and weight

    An adult Maltese stands about 7 to 9 inches tall at the shoulder and weighs under 7 pounds, according to the American Kennel Club breed standard. That makes them easy to carry, easy to travel with and a good fit for smaller homes.

  • Temperament

    Maltese are gentle, playful and affectionate. They bond closely with their people and enjoy being held, but they also have a confident streak and will happily bark to announce a visitor. Early, gentle training keeps that alertness in check.

  • Energy and exercise

    A Maltese has moderate energy in a small body. Short daily walks and indoor play sessions are usually enough. Many Maltese burn off plenty of energy chasing a toy across the living room.

  • Grooming and shedding

    The Maltese has a single coat of hair and is a low-shedding breed. Low-shedding dogs are often better tolerated by people with allergies, though no dog is free of allergens. The tradeoff is grooming: brush a few times a week, keep the face clean to limit tear staining, and plan on regular trims if you prefer a short puppy cut.

  • Lifespan

    Maltese have a typical life expectancy of 12 to 15 years. Ask your Pet Counselor about the parents' health history for any puppy you are considering.

Think a Maltese could be the one?

Is a Maltese right for your Miami home?

For many Miami families, yes. A Maltese is well suited to condos and apartments in Brickell, Doral or Kendall, because they need little space and do much of their exercising indoors. Their light coat does not trap heat the way a double coat does, but a dog this small still overheats quickly on hot pavement, so plan walks for early morning or evening during the summer.

Caring for your Maltese puppy

The first two weeks are about routine. Feed at the same times each day, take your puppy out right after meals and naps, and keep a small, puppy-proofed area for when you cannot watch them. Toy breeds have small bladders, so expect more frequent potty breaks than with a larger puppy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How big does a Maltese get?

A full-grown Maltese weighs under 7 pounds and stands about 7 to 9 inches tall, based on the American Kennel Club standard. Most reach close to their adult size by around their first birthday. A Pet Counselor at Petland Miami can show you how a specific puppy is growing and what to expect as an adult.

Are Maltese good with kids?

Maltese are affectionate and gentle with children who handle them calmly, which makes them a good match for families with older kids. Because a Maltese is so small, toddlers need close supervision. Petland Miami socializes every puppy daily with children, adults and other dogs, so your Maltese is used to family life before going home.

Do Maltese shed?

Maltese are a low-shedding breed with a single coat of hair, so you will find very little hair around the house. Low-shedding dogs are often better tolerated by people with allergies, but no dog is completely allergen-free. Spend time with a Maltese at Petland Miami in Kendall to see how you feel before you decide.

Is a Maltese a good dog for an apartment or condo in Miami?

Yes, a Maltese is one of the better breeds for apartment and condo living in Miami because it needs little space and gets much of its exercise indoors. Short walks in the cooler morning or evening are usually enough. Expect some barking at hallway noises, which consistent training helps manage.

Is Petland Miami a Maltese breeder?

No, Petland Miami is a pet store in Kendall, not a Maltese breeder. Our puppies come from USDA-licensed breeders with no direct violations and select hobby breeders, named on our Petland Cares page. Miami-Dade County requires breeder information for every puppy, and you can ask to see the breeder's name and address for any Maltese.

How much is a Maltese puppy at Petland Miami?

The price of a Maltese puppy at Petland Miami varies by the individual puppy, pedigree and age. Tap Get My Info on any Maltese listing or call (305) 363-6959 for details on a specific puppy. $0 down financing is available, and a Pet Counselor can walk you through it.

Can I finance a Maltese puppy?

Yes, you can finance a Maltese puppy at Petland Miami with the Petland credit card, which offers $0 down and low monthly payments. You can check online if you prequalify, and a Pet Counselor will walk you through the application in store. A deposit holds your puppy for 48 hours.
