What should you feed to a Maltese when home cooking?

• You will want at least 40-50% of meat. Organs are best - This includes liver and heart (usually chicken). However, lean chicken, fish, lean hamburger and lamb are fantastic
• You will want about 25-35% vegetables - This should include baby carrots, peas, green beans, broccoli, spinach, potatoes and sweet potatoes
• Starch - about 25 -35% should be rice (either white or brown) and pasta. The Maltese loves pasta and should not be kept from enjoying this healthy, wholesome food.

Veggies can be raw, however steamed is perfect also.
