Malta is an island famed for its
Knights Of ST. John its crosses and IT'S
terriers, particularly the terriers. Nal
tese terriers are not gray in color, as
the uninitiated always expect TO hnd
them, but are snowy white, with black
eyes and 8 black nose, which look like
three ripe blsckberries in dish OF
whipped cream.
All Maltese terriers are not pure
white. There are, alas. spurious ones,
which have q yellow streak, light brown
eyes and and Dudley noses. None OF
these. however, is allowed TO repoSe
in the Dyker Kennels.
