About the Maltese Breed
The Maltese is a small, white-coated companion breed known for staying close to its people and adapting easily to apartment and small-home living.
The Maltese is one of the oldest toy breeds on record, associated with the Mediterranean and written about by Greek and Roman writers well over two thousand years ago. It was bred as a companion rather than a working dog, and that history still shows in how closely the breed attaches to the people it lives with.
- Typical adult size Most adult Maltese mature somewhere around 4 to 7 pounds and stand roughly 7 to 9 inches at the shoulder.
- Coat A single, silky, straight white coat with no undercoat, which means far less seasonal shedding than most breeds.
- Grooming The silky coat mats easily and needs brushing several times a week, plus a grooming appointment roughly every four to six weeks. Many families keep a shorter "puppy cut" to make daily upkeep simpler.
- Activity level Low to moderate. Short daily walks and indoor play usually cover a Maltese comfortably.
- Household fit Apartments, condos, smaller homes and households where someone is around for a good part of the day. Because of their size, supervision around very young children is sensible.
- Training Bright and food-motivated, and they respond well to short, positive sessions. House training a toy breed usually takes patience and a consistent schedule.
- Companionship Maltese tend to be people-oriented and often follow their person from room to room. Many do best when they are not left alone for long stretches.
- Lifespan Maltese are a long-lived toy breed, commonly cited at around 12 to 15 years.
Is a Maltese Right for You?
A Maltese tends to suit some households better than others. Here is what usually makes the difference, including the parts that take real work.
A Maltese may be a good fit if you want
- A small companion dog that is comfortable indoors
- Apartment, condo or smaller-home living
- A breed that tends to stay close to its people
- Modest exercise needs rather than a high-energy sporting dog
- A single coat that sheds very lightly around the house
Worth thinking about first
- The white silky coat needs regular brushing and routine grooming appointments
- Toy-breed puppies are fragile and need supervision around toddlers and larger pets
- Many Maltese prefer company and can struggle with long days alone
- House training a toy breed usually takes a consistent routine and time

How big do Maltese puppies usually get?
Most adult Maltese mature somewhere around 4 to 7 pounds and stand roughly 7 to 9 inches at the shoulder. Adult size varies with the individual puppy and its parents, so any figure given for a puppy is an estimate rather than a guarantee.
Are Maltese puppies good for apartments?
Yes. The Maltese is one of the more apartment-friendly toy breeds because it is small, quiet indoors compared with many terriers, and satisfied with short walks and indoor play. It still needs daily activity and company.
How much grooming does a Maltese need?
Plan on brushing several times a week to keep the silky single coat from matting, plus a professional grooming appointment roughly every four to six weeks. A shorter puppy cut makes the routine easier.
What should I know before bringing home a Maltese puppy?
Three things worth thinking through before a Maltese comes home: the white silky coat needs regular brushing and routine grooming appointments; toy-breed puppies are fragile and need supervision around toddlers and larger pets; many Maltese prefer company and can struggle with long days alone. None of them are dealbreakers, but they are easier to plan for in advance than to discover later.
