Maltese for Sale in the Philippines

One of the oldest toy breeds in the world, the Maltese has been a companion dog for at least 2,000 years — ancient Greeks built tombs in honor of their Maltese dogs and Aristotle mentioned the breed in his writings. The dog is thought to have originated on the island of Malta, where it was traded by Phoenician merchants throughout the ancient Mediterranean world.

The Maltese is one of the lowest-shedding toy breeds available, scoring just 10/100 for shedding — a popular choice for apartment dwellers and allergy-sensitive owners. Gentle and affectionate (85/100 friendliness), this breed is fragile, requires significant grooming (75/100), and is prone to separation anxiety if left alone for extended periods.
