I'm Tina S., the breeder behind Tiny Dancer Li'l Ones located in Wilcox, PA. I am a small hobby breeder and I have been breeding since 2013. I started with the Miniature Australian Shepherd. In 2017 I decided to breed the Maltese. My puppies have a large play area and are exposed to different objects and are soothed with classical music. My Maltese are registered with AKC.
Q. & A. with Tina
Why did you start breeding?
I retired and decided I needed something to fill some of my time with. I started with the Miniature Australian Shepherd in 2013 and in 2017 added the Maltese to my breeding program. Since my very first litter, I have learned so much about the whelping process which I am there for every litter. The Maltese pups are a joy to raise!
What makes your program special?
My pups are handled daily and from day 3 to day 16 I do Early Neurological Stimulation on each pup as long as they are not stressed. As they are growing they are exposed to different toys and objects to enhance their stimulation. Breeding and raising puppies is one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had.
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.

Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Excellent level
Tiny Dancer Li'l Ones reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Maltese.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Patellar Luxation
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.
Animal Genetics Panel
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).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
