The Maltese is one of the oldest dog breeds in the world, with a history spanning over 2,000 years. This small dog with its silky white coat, weighing just 2 to 4 kg, is a companion of incomparable gentleness and elegance. With 214 active listings on QuebecAnnonce, the Maltese is one of the most popular small dogs for adoption in Quebec, particularly in urban areas like Montreal, Laval, Longueuil and Gatineau.
Originating from the island of Malta, the Maltese has been the preferred companion of European aristocracy for centuries. Its long, smooth, pure white coat lacks an undercoat, making it particularly sensitive to Quebec’s cold — a warm coat and boots are essential for winter outings in Montreal or Gatineau.
The Maltese is the quintessential apartment dog. Its small size, moderate energy level and natural cleanliness make it perfect for downtown Montreal condos. Deeply attached to its owner, the Maltese can suffer from separation anxiety if left alone too long. It thrives with retirees, remote workers or families where someone is often home.
The Maltese coat requires daily maintenance. Many Quebec owners opt for a short "puppy cut." Health-wise, the breed is prone to patellar luxation, portosystemic shunt, dental problems and tear staining. Serious breeders registered with the Canadian Kennel Club (CKC) conduct complete health checks. With an impressive lifespan of 12 to 15 years, the Maltese will be a faithful and loving companion in your Quebec home.
