A female Maltese dog requires diligent daily care of her coat as the silky texture can become a real nightmare if left uncombed for too long of a time. Also, the female Maltese needs regular exercise and proper diet to keep from becoming overweight which is harmful to her health.

A female Maltese can go into heat as early as sixteen months of age. It is important to talk with your veterinarian to discuss the signs and symptoms of a heat cycle. It is likely the veterinarian will discuss the benefits of spaying as well as general overall care of your dog.
