pursuing excellence AS DEFINED by the maltese standard

Welcome to Sarcenet Maltese! After many years of owning, breeding, and training Papillons in conformation, obedience and agility I purchased my first Maltese in 2008. After finishing several champions and successfully campaigning two Maltese specials, we bred our first Maltese litter in 2016. All three of the puppies in that litter finished their championships and two were also shown as specials. One of these puppies, now NBISS GCHS Divine's Takes The Cake At Sarcenet "Joey," went on to be the #1 Maltese in the breed rankings for 2019 and 2020 and was Best of Breed at the 2019 American Maltese National Specialty. We  have a small breeding program and generally have a litter once or twice a year. Each breeding is carefully planned with the goal of producing a Maltese that will not only be capable of finishing a Championship, but might also be our next great show dog.  Because we are not a volume breeder we rarely have pet puppies to place, however please feel free to contact us to be placed on our list if a puppy becomes available.
