Average Customer Rating:  (8 reviews)
Editorial Review: The diminutive and appealing Maltese is noted for its silky, floor-length white coat, which requires frequent grooming. Barron's comprehensive series of Pet Owner's Manuals advise both current and prospective owners on the care of virtually every kind of pet, including a wide variety of dog and cat breeds, hamsters and other small caged animals, birds, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and even scorpions and tarantulas. The author of each book is a specialist in his or her field, which guarantees readers solid advice and instruction that helps them know what to look for when acquiring a pet, feeding, housing, maintaining health care, and where applicable, grooming and training. All Pet Owner's Manuals are filled with high-quality color photos and informative line art.

 Great addition to a Maltese Owner's library, 2008-05-03
This is the best book I've read on the Maltese breed. The author systematically lays out the basic tenets of dog ownership with practical advice.
The training chapters proved particularly useful as they addressed all different types of training techniques for various problems. The author couples the basic idea of loving your dog and companionship with training. This book is a good reference tool especially for puppy owners.
Also, this book describes in detail what the dog owner should look for in a breeder, veterinarian, and puppy without bias or agenda. All in all, this book was a useful tool in helping me purchase, train, groom, feed, and take care of the new member of our family and I would recommend it to any future Maltese owner. Good luck!

 If your eyes can take it, read this book, 2002-01-28
This is the 3rd book I've read on the Maltese breed. Unlike the other 2 books, this one was ALL about Maltese instead of adding general information on puppy training ect. The book gave some more advanced information on grooming, and more impressively featured serious discussions on showing and breeding your Maltese. The only peeve I have with this book is the extreamily small print..my eyes are still burning! I'd recommend picking up a magnifying glass if you buy this book :) On the positive side, there is a lot of info packed into an 80 page book! Happy Reading.

Another outstanding dog reference from Barrons., 1999-07-31
A comprehensive, no-nonsense approach to the care and keeping of the Maltese. Anyone who knows the breed at all will delight in the information presented by the author, the lovely photos selected by the publisher, and the exquisite illustrations by Michelle Earl-Bridges. An Excellent review of the Maltese standard, with a realistic approach to breeding and puppy care. The history of the breed is a stunning synopsis of the Maltese background. Affordable and informative. "Well done author and publisher!"
