What does a Maltese look like?
A Maltese is a small dog, with a long, silky white coat that flows to the ground (you’ll often see it tied up in a topknot to keep it out of their eyes). Their expressive dark eyes and black nose are set against their white fur, giving them a sweet puppy-dog look. Maltese dogs have a compact, well-proportioned body, a plume-like tail that arches over their back, and feathering on their ears.
