Listed in the Toy group, the Maltese is a dainty little dog, standing only a scant 8 - 12 inches high at the shoulders (withers) and typically weighing between 5 - 13 pounds.
The Maltese is always white in color, with cream/biscuit markings allowed. His sole purpose in life is to love and be loved.
The personality of the breed is that of a sweet, affectionate lap dog that loves people. He has a bit of showmanship about him that further endears him to his admirers. He is smart, outgoing, playful, and enjoys being with his family. Small enough to be litter box trained and amiable to both apartment and suburban living, the breed is adaptable to many lifestyles. Whether he is carried around in your arms or sleeping in bed with you, the Maltese is a true, loyal friend.
The coat of a Maltese is white, long, silky, soft, and luxurious to the touch. The breed sheds minimal to not at all and is considered to be hypo-allergenic with a low dander level, making him a good choice for many allergy sufferers. The coat is cared for through frequent brushing sessions to prevent matting and the occasional trip to the grooming salon to trim the hair as desired. The Maltese has an average lifespan of 12 - 16 years.
