I'm Missy R., the breeder behind Missy's Maltese located in Dunn, NC.

We love each of our dogs so much and make sure to find our puppies the perfect families and individuals with lifestyles that will complement them.
Q. & A. with Missy
Why did you start breeding?
My teacup Maltese brought such joy to my heart and life I wanted to be able to provide that to others. After seeing what an amazing mother Sugar was to her pups and the joy that the pups brought to the families lives, I decided to continue to allow her and Tank to breed on a safe schedule.
What makes your program special?
My pups are treated like my very own children. They are given so much love and care. They are socialized around small children; held, played with and loved daily; given baths and dried with the hair dryer regularly; puppy pad and crate trained; CKC Registered; and full blooded Maltese.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Sugar
Sugar is the sweetest little mama Maltese ever! She loves her babies so much and takes such amazing care of them nonstop from the time they are born until they go to their forever homes. She loves to play fetch, cuddle with us, and enjoys a peanut butter treat. She is a tiny little furball of love, is full blooded Maltese, and is CKC registered. We could not ask for a better furbaby than our sweet Sugar.
Tank, dad
Maltese
About Tank
Tank is a gentle, laid back, extremely loving Maltese who enjoys playing fetch, playing with his pups, and loves a good belly rub. He is full blooded Maltese and CKC registered. While he loves to play, he also loves to lounge on the sofa with us and just hang out. He is our gentle, 5 lb lovebug of cuddly fur and we are so blessed to have him as our baby.
