General Information On Maltese Dogs
Pets that fit the description of the Maltese have been known since very early times. The island of Malta, off the southern coast of Italy, was colonized by the Phoenicians about 1000 BC. These small, white dogs could have been brought to the area by the Phoenicians and/or spread elsewhere by them, since they sailed and traded around the known world. The Maltese dogs were entirely bred as companions and "comforters," being especially favoured by the ladies who often carried them in their sleeves or held them in their laps when in their carriages "taking air." But they won the hearts of more than the women; the Roman governor of Malta in the first century AD so adored his Maltese that he requested a portrait painted and poems written about her.
The Maltese maintained its demand as a companion through the centuries. Dr. Caius describes these small white dogs in the 1500s, and, in 1607, a writer described one that sold for $2,000! At that time, they were described as the size of a squirrel or a common ferret, as small as today´s tiniest specimens.
The Maltese remains a much-loved pet and glamorous show dog. They are fastidious, refined and loyal. Devoted to their owners, they are friendly with everyone. Their snowy white, soft coat is without undercoat so they don´t create yearly shedding problems, although they definitely require frequent combing to keep out tangles. Their tails are natural length and curve gracefully up over the back. The Maltese is playful and sturdy.
