Rodney comes from a small Maltese pairing, with Snowball weighing 7 lbs and Rhoda weighing 8 lbs. He is expected to stay small, though adult size can vary, and he can be ACA registered.

For a family looking for a small companion dog, Maltese puppies are loved for more than their size. This breed is known for being playful, alert, affectionate, and closely connected to the people around them. They often appeal to families who want a little dog with plenty of personality and a strong companion breed background.

Rodney is played with extensively in the yard with children, including a 2-year-old, giving him a family-centered start with handling, attention, and everyday activity. For a home ready to welcome a Maltese puppy into its daily rhythm, Rodney could be a great fit.
