Description
Dog Breed: Maltese. Hi, I'm Nanna. I might be a bit shy at first, but give me a little time and I'll show you just how sweet and friendly I can be. I love gentle pats and quiet times together. If you're looking for a loyal friend who will always be there to listen and offer quiet support, I'm your girl. Adopting me means gaining a companion who will cherish every moment with you. Let's make memories together! Special Needs: As they say, you don't have to brush your teeth, just the ones you want to keep! Sadly, my previous owners didn't heed that advice, and now I am missing quite a few teeth. I'm doing ok, though. I would just prefer wet food when I go home with you.

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.
