Why Debra started breeding
Our daughter fell in love with a Maltese in the local pet store. The puppy was over $4000. We could not afford that price but through a web site like this we were able to get our first Maltese. We named her Holly. Many of our friends was asking us to breed her because they wanted a puppy so we located a Maltese stud and we had our first liter of 2 females about 6 years ago. We kept 1 to stay with us and we continued to breed. We now have 3 females and 1 male.
