Welcome!
We have gone back to the future. We are again known as Angel Bay Maltese. This name correction is in honor of our very first show dog and princess, “Angel” - Scylla’s Lite of Angel Bay b. 2001 - d. 2015. My eternal gratitude to Vicki Abbott for allowing me to be owned by the little girl who stole my heart and set me down the path of Maltese show dogs more than 20 years ago.
Angel Bay Maltese is a small in-home preservation breeding program located in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area of Texas. The dogs are born, raised, and live in our home. We do not have a “kennel.” We breed primarily to produce quality show dogs for us to show. Of course, health and temperament are essential, as are proper structure, coat texture, and color. We breed only purebred Maltese.
Since not all puppies meet our strict standards for show dogs, and although we would love to, we cannot keep every puppy from every litter. So we occasionally have puppies available to approved homes as altered pets. We breed very few litters a year, and since Maltese are small dogs, they have small litters. 1-3 puppies are typical; 4 or more puppies are rare. So even if we do have 2 litters in a year, we may still not have any puppies available to place.
Some of our dogs are conformation, obedience, or agility champions, and some of our dogs have all three - conformation, obedience, and agility titles! Some of our dogs are certified therapy dogs as well! Please let us know what activities you are looking to participate in with your dog, and we can work together to find the right family member for you.
If you are interested in a show dog, please email us introducing yourself. We are delighted to explore that opportunity with you.
As a proud Board Member of the American Maltese Association (member since 2001) I abide by their Code of Ethics.
Unless you already own an Adura or Angel Bay dog, ALL my puppies and dogs are spayed or neutered before they leave my possession. We do not sell anything intact. Our puppies are 5-6 months old before they are ready to go. However, this age coincides with the time we make a final determination of “show quality” and decide who will stay with us to become show champions. You may place a deposit earlier. However, they may not leave until they are spayed or neutered at 5 months.
Feel free to browse through our site and enjoy the photos of lovely dogs and puppies. We have additional photos, videos, and information on our Facebook Page - Adura Maltese/Angel Bay Maltese and Instagram.
