I'm Lisa G., the breeder behind A Town Maltese located in Amarillo, TX. Each of our dogs has brought so much happiness to us throughout their lives.

Q. & A. with Lisa
Why did you start breeding?
My daughter has a rare disease and asked for a Maltese as her emotional support dog. We got her 2 females and a male. We decided to breed them so others can enjoy the special bond this breed creates with it's owner.
What makes your program special?
We are just a family with 3 dogs. We are not BIG breeders. Our puppies are well cared for and loved from the beginning. They already know what it means to snuggle and get love.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include white and white and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

We scoured throughout the internet to find a reliable and trustworthy Maltese breeder anywhere within the USA since it was difficult to find one locally. Gooddog.com had few newborn Matlese puppies that captured our attention. This site was filled with pictures of adorable puppies, and their breeder screening process seemed sufficiently meticulous for us to pursue the adoption process. Lisa Gossett, a member breeder in Gooddog.com was raising few newborn Maltese puppies named Lexus and Mercedes. The puppies had fluffy white furs like bundle of cotton balls with round bold eyes and appeared very healthy and adorable. There was a video of the litters actively playing with one another and dragging their favorite toys as they chased each other. We expressed our interested in adopting Lexus and asked Lisa questions which were promptly answered. Communication between Lisa gave us confidence that she had the integrity and trustworthiness we can rely on. We applied and started the online adoption process. As we watched the same video of the litters playing, we wondered whether Lexus will be happy without her siblings. Since Mercedes was still available, we took a big step and adopted both of them. Lisa was gracious enough to accommodate our desires, and adding another puppy to our transaction was straight forward.
Lisa was exceptionally helpful in providing vet records of the puppies and the necessary documentation for traveling with them on the plane. The day came when both puppies were brought home. The arrival of Lexus and Mercedes to their forever loving home was delighted and ecstatic to us. Our decision to bring both home at the same time was also justified since both became comfortable and adapted to our home rather quickly. Potty training was easy and immediate since they taught and follow one another’s actions. The furry furs were like cotton balls, and they were soft and fluffy as shown on the pictures, and they played with one another just like the video showed on the website. We felt blessed to have found an outstanding breeder who is committed to raising healthy, receptive, and smart puppies with excellent temperament. Their teeth were strong and white as well as their paw nails. The beautiful white fur is like holding on to a puff of cloud. They eat well, and their bones and muscles are strong. They can run and chase tirelessly. We wish to thank Lisa for raising such loving puppies which will provide us with years of joyful memories.

Lisa was awesome to work with while picking my new pup. I know I had a ton of questions and she was responsive, knowledgable and patient. We even did a FaceTime so I could see my new BFF before purchasing. She worked with me closely and kept me informed every step of the way through the transportation of my new pup as well as the entire process. My pup is gorgeous! Thanks Lisa!

A Town Maltese gets AAAA+ from me!!!
Firstly, from hello until our new fur baby Maltese Coconut (Coco) was in our arms, A Town Maltese treated me with like family!!!
This family owned breeder exceeded my expectations with kindness & compassion. Lisa the owner made my dream of loving & caring for my very own fur baby a reality.
Lisa effectively answered all of my questions and concerns communicating with me throughout the process. You'd never realize she was hundreds of miles away from TX to VA given the process was so seamless & smooth.
I can't express enough phenomenal feelings of joy that Lisa & her amazing Family have blessed me with!!
My lil Coconut baby girl is healthy & happy in her new home with me, my husband, & baby boy Latte. A Town Maltese has helped us complete our little family. For that I'm forever thankful & blessed beyond measure.
If you're searching for your new fur baby don't hesitate to allow Lisa & her loving family complete your family too!!
We love A Town Maltese!!!!

These people were amazing. I wanted a Maltese and was searching online when the picture of three little puppies came up. I contacted A Town and my questions were all immediately answered. I reserved one of the puppies. Lisa told me when she would be ready to come home and kept me informed on progress. I could not of found a better experience nor could I be any happier with the dog.
