Meet the breeder

I'm MARIAN S., the breeder behind Emerald Maltese located in Kane, PA. I am looking to raise the best possible dog physically and mentally. I incorporate the puppy culture protocols into my breeding program. I offer lifetime support with each puppy I place. I will always take a puppy back if things aren't working out for you. On occasion I may have a retired Maltese who is looking to be someones one and only baby, I am focused on finding the best loving homes for all my babies. I am always available to discuss the Maltese breed or my dogs specifically.

Q. & A. with MARIAN

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I started helping with Mini Aussies and then I transferred that interest of breeding to the breed that I love.

  • What makes your program special?

    I am not only trying to breed to the breed standard, but I am trying to raise well rounded and socialized puppies that will be someone's life long companion. I am always available if you have questions, concerns or just want to share a story or picture of your puppy.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.

  • Dentition

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
