Reputable breeders typically charge between $600 and $1,500 for a purebred Maltese puppy in California.
Male Maltese dogs usually reach their full-grown size between 8-10 months and weigh around 4-6 pounds. Females are slightly smaller, standing 8-9 inches tall.
Maltese dogs don’t need much exercise. About 30 minutes of light activity per day, along with unstructured playtime using mentally stimulating toys, keeps them happy and healthy.
The average Maltese lifespan is between 12 to 15 years, making them wonderful companions for the long haul.
