i really want a maltese pup! but i dont want it to be a big dog. i know these dogs are adorable and small. but how big/tall do they get?
I’ve never seen a BIG maltese, they usually get to be around
arm cradling size, you know, like you would carry a baby?
also, i’ve never seen a tall one, they have really short legs and lots of fur/hair. So to me they kinda look like dustmops with feet……lol.

whats the going price for a 4 pounder ? i cant seem to find them in our area canada
Maltese only come in one size. There is no teacup. Toy is the name of the group of small companion dogs in the AKC. Maltese are in the toy group. According to the AKC breed standard, a maltese should weigh between 4 and 6 pounds.
Check out dogs at the shelter near you or you can also search for rescue groups, as well as maltese rescue groups.
Preferably not hard to chew and small.
Hopefully an at-the-fridge treat too, like (if even possible) dices of cheese -.-"
Hi Isabel… you are getting some good suggestions. So I will give you advice in another direction. Not really treats, but something you can give your dog once a day is dog vitamins. Our dogs think they are treats while getting good nutrition. Our vet had recommended vitamins some time ago… but to his surprise, we were already giving them. Also… we pretty much spoil our pets… there are a number of easy-to-make doggie cookie recipes on the internet. You can make them anysize you want. Ours love them!!! And just a bit of advice to save your dog from serious stomach trouble …. no chocolate (EVER), nothing with onions, no potato skins… and absolutely no peanut butter. We found out the hard way… and our yorkie almost died… peanut butter introduces too much fat into their bloodstream which leads to bloody bowels and bloody vomitting…. Thanks for reading.

I might be getting one and I’m kinda concerned at the care I’ll need to take because of the length of their fur . Could you shave it off or something so it’ll be less trouble?
Yes, they have long hair. Why not get a dog with short hair instead of shaving a Maltese, it is their hair that makes them
pretty.
I’m looking for a good house dog, but I need something that is good with children….. Any suggestions?
A maltese is the perfect dog for you! They shed little fur, so are very clean and tidy! And are also great with children, they are particularly fearless, which is very helpful with young children tugging at fur and chasing them around!

I really want to get a shih tzu/maltese mix, but I don’t know if he will be ok for six hours alone while I am at school. What do you think?
usually small dogs have small bladders so it depends
will someone be home to take him out? if not I would say either crate train (but thats a long time) or maybe a cat? they tend to be the ones that can handle all that time on their own
