About Maltese Dogs

Maltese are refined, gentle companion dogs with flowing white coats and an aristocratic bearing. Despite their elegant appearance, they're playful, spirited, and surprisingly tough little dogs. Their devotion to their owners and cheerful dispositions have made them beloved companions for thousands of years.

Adopting a Maltese means welcoming a loving, lively friend who brightens every day. They're ideal for apartment living, hypoallergenic, and wonderful for seniors and families alike. Their small size and gentle nature make them perfect therapy dogs and loyal personal companions.

Adopting in San Bernardino, CA

San Bernardino's proximity to mountains and affordable living make it a practical city for pet adoption in the Inland Empire. Local shelters have many animals in need of loving homes, and the cost of living makes quality pet care more accessible.

With the San Bernardino National Forest just minutes away, local parks, and year-round sunshine, San Bernardino offers adopted pets access to incredible outdoor adventures from desert floors to mountain peaks.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

38°F to 62°F

Dec – Feb

Mild valley temperatures are comfortable for daily outdoor pet routines, while nearby mountains offer snowy adventures for cold-weather breeds. Occasional frost on the coldest mornings may warrant a light jacket for small pets. This is a great season for exploring local parks without heat concerns.

Spring

45°F to 80°F

Mar – May

Warming temperatures and blooming citrus make spring a pleasant season for walks in San Bernardino’s parks. The foothills and mountain trails become accessible as snow melts. Start transitioning walk times earlier as temperatures climb through May.

Summer

62°F to 100°F

Jun – Aug

Intense inland heat requires early morning or evening walk schedules. For relief, a short drive to Big Bear or Lake Arrowhead drops temperatures by 20°F, offering mountain trail options. In the valley, keep pets in air conditioning during peak hours and ensure constant water access.
