The coat of these Maltese dogs is long, white, and very silky. Some Maltese puppies may also have beige or yellow markings on the coat. The face the Maltese is small, adorable, and sports an alert and intelligent expression. Some Maltese dogs may have curly or woolly hair rather than the typical smooth, silky hair. The skull of these dogs is slightly rounded, and the black button nose and dark eyes stand out against the white face of the animal.
