Looks and brains!
According to the American Kennel Club standard for the Maltese: "The Maltese is a toy dog covered from head to foot with a mantle of long, silky, white hair. He is gentle-mannered and affectionate, eager and sprightly in action, and, despite his size, possessed of the vigor needed for the satisfactory companion.
"For all his diminutive size, the Maltese seems to be without fear. His trust and affectionate responsiveness are very appealing. He is among the gentlest mannered of all little dogs, yet he is lively and playful as well as vigorous."

These little critters are not filled, but they do squeak. The Furry Mouse Toy is irresistible to our little dogs, and they can be destroyed with devoted play, so supervision is required. The body is about 4 1/2 inches long, the tail is also 4 1/2 inches. Maltese information and resources
