If your Maltese weighs in over the AKC Standard of 4-7 lbs., you're not alone! Many people have Maltese in the 10-13 lb. range, who are not fat dogs -- they're just big-boned! It's not uncommon, and you should only be concerned about weight if you are going to show your pup. Although the AKC states that the 4-7 lb. range is preferred, they also stress that quality is preferred over size.
Grapes, Raisins, and Onions have recently been linked to kidney disease in dogs. Chocolate, Pepperoni, and Sausage are also unsafe. It’s best to avoid all spicy and greasy snacks. Do not give them cooked bones either.

All of our puppies are priced individually.
We try to keep our prices affordable, and between the range of $500.00 - $1200.00 for Maltese, $550-$900 for Shih Tzu, and $450-$750 for Malti Tzu/Mal-Shi depending on the gender, color, size, markings, and pedigree of the puppy.
All prices reflect a pet home price (Limited Registration).
Please inquire about prices if you are interested in full registration.
Our puppies are bred for health, beauty, and loving dispositions.

It is our goal to produce high quality companion puppies.
