I'm Robin B., the breeder behind Grantham Maltese located in Jacksonville, NC. At Grantham Maltese, we offer AKC-registered, genetically tested Korean Maltese. With 15+ years of experience, I fell in love with the breed for their hypoallergenic coats and sweet nature. I’m proud to raise healthy, loving companions ready to join their forever families.
Q. & A. with Robin
Why did you start breeding?
My love for Maltese began with Sadie, my first sweet companion, and grew deeper when Bella joined our family. Their love and joy changed my life. Now that I’m retired, I’ve found so much happiness in sharing that same joy with others. Breeding Maltese isn’t just a hobby—it’s my heart’s work and a true blessing in this new chapter of life.
What makes your program special?
At Grantham Maltese, every dog is family. They live in my home, loved and socialized daily with me and my grandchildren. I prioritize health and wellness, constantly learning through AKC courses, mentors, and specialists to give the best care possible. My passion is raising happy, healthy Maltese ready to bring love into your life.
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.
