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.

Augusta's riverside setting and small-town feel make it a charming city for pet adoption. Maine's capital has dedicated shelters and rescue organizations serving the Kennebec Valley with animals ready for loving homes in this tight-knit community.

With the Kennebec River Rail Trail, Capitol Park, and the surrounding Maine countryside, Augusta offers adopted pets a peaceful New England life. The slower pace and natural beauty of central Maine create an ideal environment for bonding with a new companion.
