the longevity of the Maltese dogs is their small size. Even the larger cousins
of the Maltese don't live as long as them.



The Maltese dog's lifespan hinges on some elements such as exercise, way of
life, exposure to objects, heredities, and the functions they perform.A dominant
determinant factor of Maltese dog's lifespan is the health challenges that may
affect them during their lifetime.

Although most of these health issues are not chronic, dog owners and trainers
need to be conversant with the right medication to maintain healthy living.
Knowing the associated health issues and how to manage them is highly essential.
 Below are a few hints about the Maltese dogs;

 * They are prone to infections if they lose one or more teeth. Hence owners
   need to check their teeth regularly. Dental care administration is ideal for
   preventing unwanted infections for this canine.

   symptoms.

COMMON HEALTH PROBLEM OF MALTESE DOG BREED



As we already discussed, Maltese puppies tend to be healthy and live beyond 13
years, depending on the circumstances. But the major challenge is their
susceptibility to many health issues.

Maltese dogs usually develop hereditary health issues, which could be from their
immediate parent or older generation. However, you need to know that some health
issues are not genetic. This is why you should always request to know the
Maltese dog's hereditary past whenever you want to acquire one.

Apart from the sickness relating to genetics, the Maltese dog's size is another
factor that generates health issues. Smaller dogs, including Maltese, are prone
to contracting diseases of different times due to their fragile nature.



Gathering adequate information about the health status of Maltese is a key to
getting an admirable and courageous dog. We would like to ease the pressure for
you by highlighting some Maltese dog breed issues you need to know.

 

DENTAL PROBLEMS

Tooth and gum diseases are a significant issue for the Maltese  dog. Congestion
of their teeth is the cause of the dental problem. Periodontal disease may arise
if trainers/owners fail to residue and plaque buildup in their mouth. For this
reason, Maltese dog requires regular mouth check and dental care to prevent the
occurrence of these diseases. Accordingly, it is an excellent way to maintain
good health for the  puppies.

CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE

If a Maltese dog dies young or suffers from a chronic illness, the cause could
be heart conditions. This is one fatal health issue of the Maltese dogs that
requires utmost attention. You need to be conversant with the symptoms in its
early days before it becomes uncontrollable. Few signs you Maltese puppy might
be suffering from the cardiovascular disease include breathing problems, stunt
growth, irregular heartbeat, and fatigue.



 

PROGRESSIVE RETINAL ATROPHY (EYE PROBLEMS)

Eye problems are hereditary diseases transfer from parents to offspring.
Although not all Maltese puppies contract this from the older generation, it is
a common vision disease that makes many lose their sight. It usually affects the
rod and the cones, which may lead to Nyctalopia or Hermeralopia, respectively.
This implies that the Maltese may find it difficult to see at night or during
the day.

In most Maltese dogs, the symptoms don't show early, which grow to be a typical
problem when they become adult. However, trainers/owners could detect this
health issue when the young puppy bumps into objects, dilated pupils,
disorientation, and vision loss. Unfortunately, eye problems in Maltese don't
have a complete cure; you can only lessen the issue with supplements.

 

LIVER SHUNT

Another common illness of the Maltese is a liver shunt. This has to do with the
circulatory system's underdevelopment. The implication of this disease is the
inability of the liver to function correctly.Several symptoms are pointing out
that a Maltese is suffering from a liver shunt. This includes disorientation,
vomiting, pacing, seizures, and thriftiness. Maltese dogs with this ailment
don't grow bigger and might be weak to engage in any activity. To correct liver
stunt, affected Maltese dogs must undergo surgery.

 

CONGENITAL DISEASE

Many of the death cases recorded by this breed were as a result of congenital
disease. Hydrocephalus and colitis fall under this category, as the Maltese
breed may experience an inflammation of the large intestine. Common symptoms
include constipation, diarrhea, vomiting, blood in feces, and painful
elimination.



 

CANCER

The third-highest cause of death in the Maltese dog breed is cancer. It isn't
easy to detect in the early days because of its randomness. People smoking
around the Maltese dog contribute to the growth of cancer. Other causes include
exposure to the sun, poor diets, genetics, and minimal exercise. One advantage
of Maltese over other species is it has good genetics against cancer-related
deaths.




HOW TO PREVENT HEALTH PROBLEMS IN MALTESE DOGS?

A passionate dog owner or a trainer should be ready to help his Maltese dog stay
healthy at all times. How can you do this? It's simple! Ensure you provide
adequate preventive care, maintain a good diet, and take it for regular
exercise. Your Maltese  dog can stay happy and healthy continuously. All you
need to do is create a routine for feeding and training. This will help in
building a good relationship between you and your canine friend.

Regular health checkups are essential to detect symptoms and illnesses. Early
diagnosis will go a long way to help your Maltese live longer in good health.
Try as much as possible to detect allergies early or if your appetite changes at
any time. Make sure you see a veterinarian whenever you notice anything unusual.
