This also makes them ideal for apartments, condos and smaller environments with or without a yard. - The Maltese, despite their diminutive size, are an energetic breed and do need to take walks or engage in playtime every day. - They are typically a quiet breed, when it comes to talking about the toy category, but they will alert you to people at the door or cars in the driveway. - Their glorious white coats grow continuously and will have to be brushed daily and groomed regularly to keep it from matting. However, they are considered very low-shedders and work well for people with allergies as they have no pet dander typical to other dog breeds. - The Maltese is gentle, affectionate, intelligent, responsive and trusting. A good family dog, Maltese are lively, playful, vigorous, and they generally enjoys learning tricks. They can be snappy with raucous children who handle them roughly though and do better with older children. #### **These bullets are just a small bit of information on this wonderful breed!

This Petland was super clean and well taken care of! It wasn’t too busy so we were able to see a dog. The workers there were super attentive and kept checking in on us and helped us pick the right puppy to see. They had a few hamsters, ferrets, and Guinea pigs. This location does not have reptiles or fish. I highly recommend coming here for all your dog needs! Posted on Google Andrea Johnson Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This review is for Destiny M. She is next level fantastic. Her demeanor, patience, knowledge was unbelievable. Their prices for dogs seem high, but do your research and you will find them to be competitive. Destiny makes the entire experience worth it. Loved her! Posted on Google Earl Saverson,Jr Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Beautiful store.Have a nice selection of puppies to choose Posted on Google TekBuf Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Small pet store, great for grab and go. Friendly staff. I didn't need any real assistance. ```
