Maltese Puppies for Sale in Victoria

Meet Maltese puppies for sale in Melbourne and across Victoria on Tradingpost, listed by private sellers and businesses right across Australia.

Take your time over a puppy. Ask to visit the litter where it has been raised, see each pup with its mother, and ask the seller about the breeder, the microchip and vaccination records, worming, and the age each pup is ready to leave its mother. A seller who welcomes questions, a visit and a follow-up call is worth waiting for.

Set on a Maltese? Small dogs are still dogs, and the ones that end up anxious or snappy are usually the ones that were carried everywhere instead of being allowed to walk and meet the world. Ask how the pups have been socialised, and ask about teeth and knees, which are where the small breeds most often need attention. Ask what the parents are like before you enquire. Each listing shows the seller's location and a way to get in touch, and most carry photos, so you can ask your questions before you travel.

Victoria is compact by Australian standards. Most of the state is within three or four hours of Melbourne, so a listing in a regional centre is usually still a same-day return trip.

Narrow it further: male Maltese puppies and female Maltese puppies, or Maltese pups under 3 months. Still deciding on a breed? Start from puppies and dogs for sale.
