The Maltese is a cute small dog breed that was once used as a sign of prestige and fashion status in the Roman Empire<\/a>. It was later introduced to Europe by Chinese breeders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This dog is a perfect choice if you want a breed that can be used in dog sports. But you’ll have to teach them obedience and agility, as well as socialization. And it should start early to ensure that your Maltese is relaxed with as many new situations as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mastiff is a large but chill breed that can grow more than 30 inches tall and weigh up to 230 pounds. They may be the most popular dog breed starting with M.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These dogs were initially used as big game hunters, guard dogs, and even war dogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You would be surprised to find out that despite their size, Mastiffs don’t really need a lot of exercise. And they can even be kept in apartments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regular walks of a few miles or free play time outside should be enough to keep your adult mastiff safe and happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
