Weighing just over six pounds, this delightful little soul carries himself with a charming strut of confidence, a reminder that happiness often comes in the smallest, most joyful packages. Fairbanks loves his walks and eagerly helps you with his harness, as if to say, " I'm excited, let’s go!!” He’s wonderful with small dogs and travels peacefully in the car, safely buckled in his seatbelt harness, ready for any new adventure.

Overview:
The elegant Maltese is a delightful toy breed renowned for its captivating beauty and charming personality. Originating from the island of Malta, these ancient dogs were once favored companions of European nobility. Physically, they are characterized by their single coat of long, silky, pure white hair that gracefully drapes over a compact, well-proportioned body, typically weighing between 4-7 pounds. Their expressive dark eyes and black button nose add to their adorable appeal. Temperamentally, Maltese are known for being affectionate, playful, and intelligent, making them highly trainable and eager to please. They thrive on human companionship and are generally excellent with children and other pets, provided they are socialized early. Their small size and relatively low exercise requirements make them ideal for apartment living and suitable for families of all types, including first-time dog owners. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of common breed-specific concerns such as dental issues and luxating patellas.
