What Sets Our Maltese Puppies Apart?
Storybook Maltese is the only Maltese breeder who provides weekly videos and a professional photoshoot for every puppy, from birth until they go home. From day one, our puppies are given every advantage to grow into intelligent, healthy, and emotionally bonded companions. Here’s what makes our Storybook Maltese puppies truly exceptional:
- Super Puppy Training from Birth
- Our puppies begin early neuro-stimulation training as part of the Super Puppy Program, enhancing brain development, emotional resilience, and adaptability.
- Pre-Socialized for Real-Life Success
- Before going home, every puppy is introduced to crate training, potty routines, grooming tools, and gentle handling, and spending the nights away from mom and littermates — making transitions smoother and stress-free.
- Therapy & Service-Ready Temperaments
- Known as “Velcro dogs,” Maltese form deep emotional bonds. We intentionally nurture therapy-grade temperament traits — ideal for service work, emotional support, or seniors.
- Signature Silky White Coats
- Our AKC Maltese puppies are known for their show-quality, pure white coats — soft, manageable, and are absolutely stunning.
- Raised on Premium Nutrition. From birth, we provide a carefully curated, high-quality diet to support growth, skin health, coat strength, and immune system development.
- Truly Home-Raised with Love. Our puppies are never kennel-raised. Instead, they’re nurtured in a warm family environment, receiving constant love, human interaction, and early socialization. They grow up in our laps and on camera so their families can watch them grow. Join our YouTube Chanel to watch our current litters grow with the Friday Fluff Report

Please Do Not Support Puppy Mills! Choose Ethical Breeders
At Storybook Maltese, we believe in responsible, compassionate breeding. Sadly, many online sellers operate large-scale puppy mills that prioritize profit over the health and well-being of their animals. We encourage all prospective puppy parents to do their research and choose a breeder who prioritizes:
•Health testing
•Ethical breeding stadards
•Home-raised environments
Be sure you are comparing apples to apples. Every Storybook Maltese puppy is raised with love, integrity, and the highest level of care — because we believe every puppy deserves a healthy start and a lifelong home. They didn’t ask to be here and they deserve the best we can give them.

Listen to a trainers experience with our puppy Pippa
Hi Esther, it’s Jacqueline. She was hilarious. She actually acted just like Bear when he came — just marched straight in and took over — just... she was in charge. She was not afraid of anybody. She did not have any timidness in her. She just marched right out there like this has been done a million times, and I’m part of it. So she was hilarious. I got a big kick out of her.
She actually growled at one dog because he got too rowdy with her — I started laughing. You know, she stayed fairly close to me part of the day till she kind of figured out what was going on.
But she wasn’t, like, clingy — just staying fairly close — and then she decided, okay, everybody here is cool, and off she went.
She reminds me of Bear so much... you can tell they come from the same bold lines.
She’s a very confident little dog.
I got a kick out of her. She’s welcome anytime.
Pippa
