Malteses - Information - Breeding High Quality Dogs
Maltese Dogs, like any other dog breed, should be subject to breed improvement. Therefore, it is indispensable to try and stop irresponsible breeding, which results in impaired health in dogs, growing number of rescue dogs and stray dogs all over the world. Dogs with diseases and conditions should never be bred. Moreover, not every perfectly healthy dog is worth breeding. No matter if a breeder means to produce show dogs or pet quality dogs, high quality is a must.

It is a large and responsible step to buy a puppy. In order to make your life together enjoyable and free of complications, a substantial amount of preliminary work should be done. Finding a breeder will probably not seem difficult to do. However, finding a responsible breeder, who will help you become a high quality Maltese owner, can appear quite a problem.
A good idea is to listen to those who already have a Maltese at home. Who else can give you useful tips on raising, feeding, training and handling the dog if not its owner? This source of information is twice as valuable if you have a chance to see the dog itself. If a happy Maltese owner recommended a breeder to you, and you made sure the Maltese is in line with its excellent characteristics, you may start preparing questions for the breeder.
It tends to be a good sign, if the breeder is involved with only one dog breed for an extended period. That ensures his knowledge and responsibility. Pedigree, shot records documented and other written evidence of the fact that the litter and the parents are healthy, will be helpful only if you personally can evaluate the conditions in which the Maltese puppy is being raised and cared for.
Reputable breeders will be able to provide you with at least two references of people, who got Maltese puppies from them. They also would like to keep in touch with you after the purchase and will want a puppy back if for some reason you are unable to care for it.
Bearing in mind all these hallmarks of a responsible breeder, formulate your questions and don't forget to ask about possible health and temperamental problems in Maltese Dogs.
