The Maltese competition at the Westminster Kennel Club dog show in Manhattan in 2013.Piotr Redlinski for The New York Times 10. And finally, how old is the Maltese, really? “The tiny Maltese,” the American Kennel Club tells us, “has been sitting in the lap of luxury since the Bible was a work in progress.” Aristotle did praise the proportions of a kind of lap dog described as a Melitaean dog.

Their response: No, but, it’s complicated. The concept of breeding toward an aesthetic — what we think of today as a breed — only started around the mid-19th century. There have, however, been lineages of dogs bred to the chase, or the lap, for a long time.
