Maltese Puppies for Sale in Illinois

I-55 starts a few miles from this kennel and ends in Chicago, which makes Illinois one of the simplest states to send a puppy to by road, and the two Chicago airports have nonstops from New Orleans for anyone who would rather fly. Five puppies, Cody, Callie, Miki, Mashi and Maru, are available now at $600 each; Cody, Callie and Miki are teacup-sized.

Which way is best for Illinois?

Southern Illinois families have driven down and back; it is a long day each way and the puppy sees its parents. For Chicago and the suburbs, a flight nanny on the nonstop to O'Hare or Midway is quickest, about two and a half hours in the air with the puppy in the cabin, and a handover at arrivals. Ground transport along I-55 is the economical choice for the whole state, normally two days by dedicated carrier. Travel is quoted and paid by you; cargo is never used.

What catches Illinois buyers out

Chicago winters. A flight into O'Hare in January lands in weather a Louisiana puppy has never met; have the car warm and the carrier covered. Apartment rules. Chicago leases and condo boards often cap dog weight; a Maltese is under every cap, but get it in writing. The suburban listings. The Chicago area has a large number of pet shops and brokers selling Maltese at high prices with no breeder in sight; a breeder with champions and pedigrees you can read is a different thing. Salt and slush. Wash the feet after every winter walk; a Maltese licks what it walks in.

What to check about any Maltese breeder in Illinois

The same four things you should check about us. Which health tests were run on both parents, by name, and can you see the results: for a Maltese that means patellar luxation, cardiac examination, a CAER eye examination and bile acids for liver shunt. How old the puppy is when it leaves; twelve weeks is right and eight is a seller in a hurry. Whether the parents are shown, titled and registered, and whether you can see them. And what happens to the dog if your circumstances change. A Illinois breeder who answers all four plainly is worth driving to. One who does not is not worth the short drive either.

Questions people ask

How much do Maltese puppies cost in Illinois?

Listings in Illinois commonly run from about $1,500 to $3,500 for a Maltese puppy, more with "teacup" in front of the name. A puppy from Divine Maltese is $600, with travel to Illinois quoted separately and paid by the buyer.

How does a puppy get from Louisiana to Illinois?

By flight nanny in the aircraft cabin, handed to you at your airport the same day; by ground transport over two to three days; or you collect in person. A puppy never travels as cargo.

Are the puppies AKC registered and health tested?

Yes. Every puppy is AKC registered, on Limited Registration for pets, and both parents are tested for patellar luxation, cardiac disease, eye disease (CAER) and liver shunt (bile acids). The certificates are shown on request.

Can I see the parents if I am in Illinois?

By video call, with the puppy and its mother in the room, and in person if you drive down. The parents of every litter are on this site with their pedigrees and show records.
