Transition to 2 meals daily after 6 months.
Ensure a balanced diet rich in protein, healthy fats, and DHA for brain development.

Because of their long, silky, non-shedding hair that mats readily, Maltese dogs require extensive maintenance.
To avoid knots, brush every day with a metal comb or slicker brush and take a bath every two to three weeks using high-quality shampoos.
Daily eye cleansing for tear stains and professional grooming every four to six weeks are crucial.
Despite their small size, Maltese are energetic and benefit from daily short walks and indoor playtime.
Avoid strenuous exercise or high-impact jumping during early growth stages.
Puzzle toys and training games offer great mental stimulation.
The Maltese is one of the oldest toy breeds, tracing its origins to the Mediterranean island of Malta. This elegant little dog has a long, silky white coat and a personality that’s affectionate, lively, and fearless despite its small size. For centuries, Maltese have served as beloved companion animals, cherished for their gentle nature and charming demeanor.
Maltese dogs are known for their intelligence, sensitivity, and adaptability. They thrive in both apartments and larger homes and are typically friendly with children and other pets when properly socialized.”
