Maltese VS Toy Poodle. “A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.” By Josh Billings. This quote is the reason I chose this topic, animals are very important among humans and especially to me. Growing up, my family always had smaller dogs such as a Maltese (Tilly) and a Toy Poodle (Wookie). Due to providing and maintaining one of each breed, I feel as if I could advise somebody which of the two would be better for them. Honestly, I think the two are wonderful pets to have and love.
