Maltese Dogs bring incredible joy to people. Maltese Dogs are one of the gentlest of all AKC toy breeds. They make wonderful travel companions and great apartment dogs due to their small size. They do not shed, are very eager to please and be close to their owners. All of this, along with their loving attitudes, makes them the perfect diminutive aristocrat.

Facial Staining – All dogs tear, but the Maltese with its white hair will sometimes stain to a reddish-brown if not tended to. To prevent these unsightly stains, you must pay particular attention to the eyes and face. If the eyes are crusty looking or have a yellowish or green discharge, you must take him to the veterinarian as this is a sign of infection. If it’s merely an excess of tears, simply use a flea comb to clean away the “sleep” that forms in the corner of the eyes wash his face everyday. Keep a bottle of baby shampoo (non-tearing) mixed half and half with water, or use the waterless shampoo. Soak a cotton ball with the diluted shampoo and wipe the hair under the eyes and on the muzzle daily. Pack the under eye hair with cornstarch or baby cornstarch powder. Putting Boric Acid powder on the stained areas also helps to lighten the staining. Keep anything you put on their facial hair away from the eyes, nostrils, and the areas they can reach with their tongue. Hair hanging over the eyes will cause irritation and cause excessive tearing. Keeping this hair tied up and away from the eyes will help to keep tearing at a minimal. Teething also causes excessive tearing. Stay away from foods with a lot of dye in them.

Miracle Goop – For unsightly eye-stain, mix equal parts cornstarch, milk of magnesia and medicinal 1% peroxide into a paste. Apply mixture to eye stained hair everyday. After the mixture has dried, which takes a couple of hours, crumble it out very carefully to avoid breaking the hair. You can use a hair conditioner to soften the mixture to remove it easier. Comb facial hair then apply more Miracle Goop. Every couple of days, apply a hair conditioner such as , to condition the hair and keep it from drying out. This method will remove most stains within 10 days, stubborn stains may take longer. (Store the mixture in a covered jar, leaving approximately 2 inches head space.)

THE MALTESE COAT

The Maltese coat is easy to care for needing only daily brushing to keep it in top condition. The dogs have three coats in their lifetime: a puppy coat, which they keep until about 1 year of age, a young adult coat and then a mature coat.

The coat needs to be brushed completely to the skin with a wire pin brush (no balls on the tips of the pins) in which the pins are set in rubber. First, spray the coat with a leave-in detangler or distilled water. Brush through the coat thoroughly, then comb with a metal comb, paying special attention to the feet, under the legs and behind the ears. Washing around the eyes daily will help keep dark stains from forming.

The coat must be thoroughly groomed, with all mats removed, before bathing. Mats that become wet and then dry can never be combed out without damaging the coat. Bathe with a mild soap and rinse well. Remove as much water as possible with towels, and then blow dry, brushing the coat until the coat is completely dry. Snarls can be removed while the coat is wet that can never be gotten out after it dries. Cornmeal rubbed into the coat and brushed out completely will help clean between baths.
