History: The Maltese is one of the oldest toy breeds, and historic records of the breed date all the way back to ancient Greece, Rome, and Egypt. However, the Maltese's exact origin is unclear. The most widely-believed theory is that the Maltese originated on the Isle of Malta in the Mediterranean Sea. Malta was a trading port, and these dogs were among the variety of goods being exported from the island. During the 15th century, the Maltese appeared in other parts of Europe, like England and France. In both countries, the breed became a favorite among nobility, including Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Victoria. Despite its extensive history, the Maltese did not appear in America until the late 19th century, and the American Kennel Club (AKC) recognized the breed in 1888.

Temperament: Maltese are playful, affectionate, and gentle companions with a sweet nature. They are very social dogs that are eager to make friends with just about anyone, whether human or animal. Because of their people-oriented nature, Maltese take well to training. They love to please their owners, and respond well to reward-based training and positive reinforcements. These dogs love being the center of attention and have a way of putting a smile on anyone who interacts with them. While lively, the Maltese does not need vigorous exercise, and they are perfectly content to spend the day by their owner's side (or on their lap).
