The average price for a Maltese puppy in Texas falls between $700 and $3,000. Some breeders may charge as low as $600, while pet-quality Maltese can cost around $2,500 to $3,000.
Maltese are one of the smallest toy breeds. As adults, they typically weigh under 7 pounds and stand around 8 to 10 inches at the shoulder.
Maltese dogs don’t require extensive exercise. A daily walk of approximately 30 minutes is sufficient, along with some unstructured playtime. They thrive on attention and companionship.
On average, Maltese dogs live around 12.25 years, but many can surpass this age. Their small size contributes to their longer lifespan compared to larger breeds.
