The Maltese Dog is not a crossbreed, but an independent, native breed. Its ancestors are from Italy, and its name is derived from a Semitic word meaning harbor or paradise. In Roman times, this shaggy white dog gained popularity among the nobility and was considered a status and fashion symbol. One interesting fact about these cute dogs is that they are prone to burning when exposed to sunlight.
