The Maltese dog is relatively active and needs a certain amount of daily exercise. It is best to take the dog for a walk at fixed times every day to promote digestion and increase appetite. The Maltese’s coat is pure white like snow; to maintain its coat's whiteness and softness, grooming is necessary. Since the dog is covered in fur, grooming must be done all over the body. In addition, regular bathing is required: once a week in cold weather and once every 2–3 days in hot weather.
