I am Dr. Faye Owens, and I am owned by a group of Maltese who help to make my life complete. I got my first Maltese, Lucy, to work with me in my office to comfort anxious and/or depressed patients. Little did I know she would not only work wonders for them, but open new doors for me into the wonderful world of Maltese. I soon found myself studying the breed, attending shows, and asking questions of anyone in the know about Maltese. I'm still learning. Sometimes I think that I'm still in "elementary school" in Maltese knowledge, as it is such a fascinating experience with so much left to learn. I am extremely proud of my dogs and their quality. I find the planning and execution of showing and breeding to be one of the most rewarding things I have encountered. I feel blessed to have been entrusted with fine specimens of the breed. Because others have trusted me to have a representation of their hard work by selling me dogs. I am committed to selling dogs to continue these fine lines only on show contract or to approved pet homes. From time to time, pet pups are available, and they are sold only on spay/neuter contract. My two legged children are grown, and these four legged ones are my babies. My home is their home. I am not advocate of keeping dogs in crates, and prefer mine to be stretched on the sofa or resting in my bed. When I am blessed with a litter of pups I either raise them in my bedroom or the sun room where they get an abundance of care and attention. I am fortunate that my work schedule allows me to be flexible so I am there when my dogs need me. If you are interested in learning more about my dogs or breeding program, I will be happy to answer your questions. Because I do have an active work schedule and do not take  phone calls when I am with a patient, I ask that you start by emailing me. The process of obtaining a pup from me starts with us getting to know one another. It is important that you feel comfortable with me as a breeder, and I feel comfortable with you as an owner of one of  my dogs. After the initial email, I will be happy to either call you, or provide my number so that you can give me a call.
