7 Reasons Why You Should Never Own Maltese Dogs

Ignore the haters. The Maltese is the best breed. They are the sweetest ❤

This is ridiculous. Just lost my 17 year old Maltese - best dog I ever had. So very smart, brave and loyal.

I have had Maltese’s for 30 years. They are a wonderful breed. They are sweet, they are affectionate, and they are very very smart. They are easy to train, and house break. My dog only barks when the doorbell rings, or someone knocks on the door. She is not a yapper in any way. I’ve had many dogs, but this breed is at the top of my list.

I had a Maltese/poodle, I didn't have problems training her. She was a wonderful pet, we did take her every where , when we left her in the car-we left the air on so she would not get hot. She passed at age 16 and we miss her so much..

I had a maltese and she was easy to train and a very outgoing dog...she loved camping and taking long walks in the park or on the beach...she was very smart and our time together, just a few months shy of 13 years ....was too short. She has been gone now over seven years, but never to be forgotten ❤. We also recently lost our Bischon poo this past July 28th. He lived 16.6 years with us and we were blessed to have him. ❤ We now have a puppy 14 weeks old....He is a Malshi ....a Maltese and a ShihTzu....we love him so much❤ Dogs are awesome.

My Maltese does not yap at all… he’s actually the most quiet dog I’ve ever owned. He does get hot easier if his coat is longer, cold no problem. But he is a house dog as all of them should be. He is groomed every 8 weeks which is not a problem. I’d prefer the grooming over excessive shedding. I lose more hair than he does. I’ve never seen him shed a hair. He is very clingy so I never have to use a leash. He is the best baby ever with no behavior issues. He is very smart, content, and VERY low maintenance. If I had to choose a home for a Maltese it would be for a mature committed adult that is home more than not just because your pup will get lonely and the Maltese is very loyal and clingy to it’s owner. They are smart and will make you feel guilty if left for long periods. Grooming is a must to avoid matting. Otherwise this pup is a fabulous breed. I’ve had every breed pretty much and my Maltese has been the easiest, cleanest in the house, smartest, most loyal, just all around perfect companion.

1. They are so fluffy like a pillow 2. They just want to lick you 3. They always want to love you but also want your attention 4. Everyone will always say “you have a cute dog” 5. They love to play 6. They miss u when you leave 7. They stick their tongue out always ……. CONCLUSIÓN: Why not to get a Maltese… lol they are sooo adorbs 😍

Everything mentioned is the total opposite of my Maltese. He don’t bark, sunbathes, goes in the garden on his own, has never ever had a toilet accident inside. He always follows my wife round the house and likes to sit with people. He does get a little excited when the door bell goes, but doesn’t every dog.

My Maltese was a great dog. She didn't bark and was well behaved. She lived 20 and a half years. We still miss our Little Bit.

I have a rescue 14 year old Maltese that I’ve had for 11 years. She is the light of my life I disagree with the not liking or needing exercise though Even at 14 she still loves her morning and afternoon walks!

We had a family dog, a Maltese, named Paris. She lived for 17 years. She was sweet, silly, sassy, and smart. She was my heart dog. It was difficult witnessing her health and cognitive decline. I miss her so much.

If you have problems with your Maltese, you probably just need a different style of dog. Mine is my best buddy and has no barking or matting issues,. He was a breeze to housebreak. He's my daily source of sanity and is incredibly loyal. He learned the normal sounds I make when I get up, stretch, lay down, etc - so now he makes those same sounds when he does those things. I wouldn't trade my Maltese for all the tea in China.

You're not wrong, however, I love talkative animals. I will admit my late Maltese Sophia had 0 training, but she was a good dog. The separation anxiety, grooming, being a shadow, and tripping everyone up were my only issues. Besides that, she came potty trained and was honestly my little sister and best friend. When we were kidnapped together she watched over me and made sure the people who took us didn't come close to me(she understood the situation because the same people stole her before). She was also extremely healthy to the point that cancer didn't show up on her blood work. Plus, she was loving towards all animals, especially her cat siblings. A Maltese is not for anyone who wants an easy dog, but they are awesome little balls of fluff who stay playful and happy till the end... She was MY first dog and honestly, it was the best most wonderful experience. And I'm a cat person. Everyone loved her. Even people who were afraid of dogs would send her gifts. In short Maltese are awesome, but I don't recommend them to busy or novice owners.

I love my baby ❤ You will never regret having a Maltese.

Another thing to remember is that not every dog is the same, my Maltese likes sleeping and won’t be a nuisance unless you annoy him but besides that and him barking at every he’s a good well behaved dog. My family didn’t want a Maltese dog and likes the black lab breed more but my dog was kind of in need as he was found by my dad wandering the streets as a stray dog and we decided to adopt him because he didn’t have an owner apparently and I’m guessing he was probably a reject. But yea we’ve had him since 2018 and he’s been great.

I have a Morkie- half Maltese half yorkie named Sadie. She looks like a maltese. I have videos of her on my channel which shows that she’s pretty well behaved. Sadie is a sweetheart. She is such a great dog. Yeah she barks whenever the doorbell rings or at some strangers but isn’t that most dogs? I also adopted a second dog (yorkie) so they both have a buddy. For most part I’m home. But when i have to run errands with no one is home, they are fine. Having a second dog definitely helps - You should never leave your dog alone outside. Even a large breed. Large Dogs also can get attacked by other animals. I grew up with two labs. I had a large backyard with woods behind it. One day, they got out of the fence, and cocoa was hit by a car driven by my neighbor. We rushed him to the vet and Luckily he was okay. But it was very scary. Things happened. Also, people have been stealing other people’s dogs out of their yards. DO NOT LEAVE YOUR DOG UNATTENDED. - You should walk your dog several times a day; regardless of breed. Maltese are very energetic. And it helps them burn energy by walking them. Also, they require exercise like all of us. It’s also good for the owner too.

My Beautiful Beautiful Boy Bailey (my soulmate) NEVER barked unless someone knocked at the door. And as soon as i answered he stopped and couldn't wait to greet our guest. He would have to stay alone at times but he NEVER barked only jumped up and down when i arrived home. This sweet loving boy was a celebrity in the neighbourhood. Had his own barstool at 335 where we would have dinner at the bar. He was a total gentleman and everyone truly loved him. His nickname was Mr. Luva Luva. He truly loved every human he met. My boy passed September 4th 2023. I have lost the greatest love of my life... He loved me through the darkest bleakest times of my life and kept me grass side up. I owe him my life and will miss him desperately until we meet again.

we had a Maltese for 19yrs. She was a great dog. She minded, was easy to travel with. Way a loving dog. We decided after a few yrs, we've now got a new Maltese puppy. She is so loving, even as a puppy. Very playful. Starting to work on different training. Get one if you want a great companion.

I have a Maltese 😁 my aunt has his brother and my brother has his little sister and none of this is accurate 😂 the three of them are the most settled and relaxed doggos they do need a lot of grooming but you should be grooming and looking after any breed. House training was perfect for them all I also have two husky’s and let’s just say my Maltese is an angel compared to them 😂 never known a better breed imo 😁
