The Maltese Canis familiaris Maelitacus is a small breed of dog in the Toy Group. It descends from dogs originating in the Central Mediterranean Area. The breed name and origins are generally understood to derive from the Mediterranean island nation of Malta.

Characteristics include slightly rounded skulls with a finger-wide dome a black button nose and brown eyes. The body is compact with the length equaling the height and the tail is almost always curled. The drop ears with sometimes long hair and surrounded by darker skin pigmentation called a halo gives dog their expressive look. Lacking exposure to sunlight their noses can fade and become pink or light brown in color. This is often referred to as a winter nose and many times will become black again with increased exposure to the sun. The dog's paws are very sensitive to touch.

Maltese are bred to be companion dogs. They are extremely lively and playful and even as a Maltese ages their energy level and playful demeanor remain fairly constant. Some time may occasionally be snappish with smaller children and should be supervised when playing although socializing them at a young age will reduce this habit. They also adore humans and prefer to stay near them. The Maltese is very active within a house and preferring enclosed spaces does very well with small yards. For this reason, the breed also fares well in apartments and townhouses and is a prized pet of urban dwellers. Some time may suffer from separation anxiety.
